It seemed a shame, given Speakit’s a little unusual system requirements, that its demo remained unavailable on PC. Well, that’s no longer the case. Starting today, you can now give Square Enix’s action-adventure Cuff-ing Season a whirl before deciding if you want to pay £65/$70 for it.
You can grab the demo steam or from the epic. It requires 42 GB of disk space.
Forspoken got mixed reviews this week, with critics ridiculing its sarcastic dialogue, lamenting its empty open world, and criticizing its story for only becoming engaging towards the end. It’s also become a big old famous dunk on social media, leading to “mixed” reviews from Steam, even though most of the negative opinions come from people with 20 minutes of game time.
Our own opinion is delayed because we haven’t received a code, with Square Enix citing a day-one patch as the reason for withholding PC copies. Alice B is playing it now – and the demo actually “surprisingly pumped her up for it”. She even went so far as to say it was okay — or “aaaaallright.”
It already seems inevitable that there will be stories two weeks from now about how Forspoken failed to live up to Square Enix’s sales expectations, but hopefully this turns out to be a lasting and unusual 7/10 that some people will be able to base their personality on the defense of . It’s the best kind of game! I’m not even kidding.
