Why should I care what turkish critic gave it? that's one of almost 800 scores. 1 person's opinion isn't that big of a deal. 

It goes to show what a waste of time using Metacritic user reviews as any measurement of anything is.

DLC?

It seems too early to announce a sequel



Platinums: Red Dead Redemption, Killzone 2, LittleBigPlanet, Terminator Salvation, Uncharted 1, inFamous Second Son, Rocket League

They should buy stuff instead, unless they make the sequel good.

I'm not going to take one review out of 800 as that important. I was just using the user score because someone (not sure if it was you or not) said that users of the game are loving it even if reviews aren't. A 5.8 doesn't sound like most people are happy with it.

Ryse was a great game and I had much fun with it! I hope there is a sequel as well.

People who have not played the game should not be allowed to have an opinion on it.

Wow. I hope so. I really enjoyed Ryse. Cant wait for day 1 number 2. :)

Using the ryse engine would not be a bad thing. Game was very pretty.

As far as gameplay and story though, Meh. Both mediocre. Wouldn't mind seeing a new ip.

Whether or not there will be another Ryse game (I could have sworn someone here told about me about a multi-game contract?), 3 months after launch seems early to announce a sequel.

I would merely expect DLC

Well I said that most people are praising it allot, Which if you look at people who have actually played it you will see, Meta can't really disprove what I said, Anybody can go on Meta and spam 0's with fake account which by the looks off it some people have (For PS4 and XB1 games) Meta User Score shouldn't really be looked at Lol, Look at Amazons or even Xbox, Both are more reliable (Lococyle and Fighter Within both had 2.5 Stars last time I checked on Xbox) Amazon requires you to have the game to review it, Much more reliable than Meta and I've saw allot off fans tweet about it or to Mike, Phil, Ryse, Team at Ryse praising the game saying it's a great game but it's nothing amazing however it could easily be made into a awesome franchise if they just fix the combat, The game has alot of potential for a sequel

Amazon does not require you to own the product you review. I just tried it. Some are spam zeros sure, but a lot of people don't like it. And it only has .7 million. That is not that many sales. Sales are going to go up still, but it's not that big. Ryse is a tech demo game, that's it. That's all crysis ever makes. Not to mention, almost every game on amazon is in the 4 star ballpark.

Cool. I think the game has enough support to get a sequel. I strongly encourage you to play at a hard level. Could be why I liked it more than others did.


I've been hearing that Ryse is ludircously easy no matter what difficulty. And I don't think it has enough sales to warrant a sequel. It's currently at .7 million.


700k after only 2 months is quite good, that suggests at least 1.5-2m lifetime. That's better than the PC version of Crysis, which Crytek turned into a series, Crysis only sold more than that once it released on consoles later on. 

And look how good those games are... Crysis 1 is the last good game they made.
