Once you get caught in its loop of taking on missions and building your character however, you don’t tend to think about its problems too much. You’re more likely to be too busy smashing monsters in the face with a giant broadsword so you can level it up for that +2 ATK boost that you’ve always dreamed of to care. With that in mind, fans of action-RPGs can’t do much wrong checking Earth’s Dawn out, but it’s by no means essential.","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gamespew.com\u002F2016\u002F11\u002Fearths-dawn-review\u002F","2016-11-09","7\u002F10",{"id":68,"author":69,"outlet":72,"summary":77,"review_url":78,"review_date":79,"original_score":51,"normalized_score":52},45688,{"id":70,"name":71},90,"Tyler Treese",{"id":73,"logo":74,"name":75,"website_url":76,"score_format":47},37,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002Fplaystation-lifestyle-logo.png","Playstation Lifestyle","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.playstationlifestyle.net\u002F","","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.playstationlifestyle.net\u002Freview\u002F529377-earth-dawn-ps4-review-playstation-lifestyle\u002F","2016-10-26",{"id":81,"author":82,"outlet":85,"summary":90,"review_url":91,"review_date":92,"original_score":93,"normalized_score":94},47596,{"id":83,"name":84},4080,"Robert Ramsey",{"id":86,"logo":87,"name":88,"website_url":89,"score_format":47},63,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FPush-Square-Logo.jpg","Push Square","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.pushsquare.com\u002F","Earth's Dawn is a 2D, loot-heavy brawler with a post-apocalyptic theme.
