Joe LaRue of The Koalition writes: Giants Uprising by Varsav Game Studios has an amazing concept when it comes to what you get to play out. The ancient race of giants is becoming extinct and with that so is all of their History From the kings of old to their once great cities which now lay in ruin and in return are slowly being devoured by time and elements.
Giants Uprising Early Access is now available on EPIC GAMES STORE!
Take on the role of a powerful Giant who finally breaks free from enslavement to seek revenge on the ruthless human race.
I know it's early access, but this looks rough. It also looks put together enough that this might be one of those games where what you see is mainly what you get, and they're just fleshing out the content.
This would be a pass, even if it wasn't an EPIC exclusive.
It might turn out great though. Who knows?
There’s a power fantasy everyone’s had at some point in their lives of just destroying things. Stomping over buildings, squishing people you don’t like, roaring at the top of your lungs, and just straight-up destroying whole cities. It’s an excellent fantasy, a perfect way to release tension and get your feelings out on some tiny pixelated villagers. That’s what this game promises— a large, cathartic brawl through a medieval fantasy world as a huge, lumbering giant. You stomping your way through a cast of horrid villains and destroying siege machinery. While the promise of such a game is in there, Giants Uprising fails to deliver on a meaningful level. Not just with its laundry list of bugs, but with some fundamental issues that might not be solved. And that is possibly the most disappointing part.

This game has a great concept but definitely needs to be fixed in several key areas. Hopefully, the developers will take any and all feedback into account.
