If you have read my review up to this point, stop what you are doing and listen to Pyre's soundtrack on Spotify or YouTube, you won't regret it. They're soothing and relaxing, but also uplifting. The soundtrack is so good that I bought the other games (Bastion, Transistor, and Hades) just because Darren Korb is the composer for those games too. I have never felt like this playing any other game before (except Guitar Hero, obviously). It seemed that the soundtrack was the center of it all and everything else was built to accommodate it. At times, it seemed that Darren Korb had minutely crafted the track for my exact actions. I do not recall a better soundtrack in all my years of gaming. The sound track makes this game a masterpiece. Moreover, the talents and items make a great addition to the game, making it feel like a true RPG. The multiple characters also introduce a nice variation to each match, changing your strategy ever so slightly. If you play on normal difficulty, it will be fun, but easy. The gameplay is fluid and the controls are easy to grasp. Not playing the scribes story and not watching a cutscene about them do not make you feel like you are missing a part of the game. Despite of this, you can clearly see the history in front of you just by reading about it. The most impressive thing is that the Scribes and Titans do not appear in the game, just as statues and landmarks. Each scribe has also their own team, who fight under their respective scribe's coat of arms and values. Landmarks mark the location of such feats, the same location where the Rites are conducted. They gave their freedom so that other exiles could have a chance of being free. Each scribe also killed a titan. I have read each single page of the book and I simply loved the tale of the Scribes.Įach of the 8 scribes were united together in exile and created the Rites for the seek of freedom. At each such step, it feels like a small achievement.
More than this, you learn how even the villains have their reasons and you end up emphasising with them.Īt each step of your quest, you unlock a few pages from The Book of Rites, learning more and more about the past and present. However, even before learning about the unjust causes for which they were thrown into exile, you are already connected to each one of them. If you like beautiful games, this is the one for you.Įach character has its own backstory that, alongside other parts of the lore, are discovered by you as the game goes by. This game presents to you mini art pieces. From a small glimmer on the characters' eyes, to the absolutely gorgeous maps. Truly beautiful! Every little detail is worked to the maximum. This game is for real, one of the best games I have ever played in my entire life (gamer for over 20 years now), let me tell you why.
