When the issues of a game are rolled and stomped by its greatness, then it’s something to invest on if you have some spare.
Omensight is a great title that suffers a bit from repetition in gameplay but makes up for it with some great combat, fun progression mechanics, excellent voice work and well-delivered story. If you’re looking for a fun ARPG experience I would recommend checking out Omensight. With the game just recently finding its way to the Nintendo Switch as well as previously being available on Steam and PlayStation 4, Omensight is a fun, fast paced, story driven ARPG that has a lot to offer.
The developers of Stories: The Path of Destinies have crafted yet another animal-filled tale. Omensight is a unique experience that's hard to put down so get ready for the end of days and let's hack and slash our way through this new adventure.
Overall, Omensight is well worth the price of admission. It’s short and the lack of a chapter select is a bummer, but I highly enjoyed what time I spent with it. I do wish I could play it more without making a new save file… but the fact that I’m doing so and that I wish for more content perhaps says something about the game.
But even with its few limitations, Omensight was love at first sight for me. Urrailia and its citizens are vibrant and intriguing, begging for you to spend time with them. The combat may be slightly repetitive, but you’ll be too busy enjoying the story and saving the world to care. If you’re in need of an easy-to-pick-up hack and slash RPG, you can’t go far wrong with Omensight.
Omensight scratches so many itches for me. I love murder mystery games and branching, time-manipulated narratives so much. Action games are some of my favorite games, and fantasy worlds that aren’t just more elves and goblins are so much more vibrant. Omensight takes all of these delicious ingredients and confidently tosses them into a boiling pot together. Some of the pieces don’t come together perfectly in the end, but the final dish is still unlike anything I can think of, and I can only hope Spearhead Games delivers just as great of an experience with their next release.
Omensight's story is extremely entertaining and it has some fun combat to back it up. Just be ready to repeat the same segments a couple of times.
The cartoony art style and anthropomorphised animal characters of Omensight might give you the impression that the game is for children. But it gets dark very q
A solid action game that delivers an excellent story. Omensight’s combat and overall polish could use a bit of fine tuning.
Spearhead Games jumps into the spot with their second title for the PC, PS4 and Xbox, with Omensight. Can you right the wrong and save the world? - Read our full Gaming News on The Outerhaven .
Spearhead Games' new murder-mystery adventure offers tight gameplay and an intriguing murder mystery, but falls flat due to its repetitive nature.
Omensight tells a story that’s worth discovering, and digging for the truth is ultimately rewarding, if a bit easy. The standard gameplay linking these bits together, however, fails to hold up until the end. It undoubtedly does the job for the first part of the game, but gradually dries out afterwards. When the platforming isn’t just there, it’s frustrating due to the camera angles and unwieldy keyboard controls. The combat has a steady flow of unlocks going into it, but fights begin to feel identical once you’ve encountered all three factions once or twice. I wish Omensight re-used levels and paths in a more imaginative way or at the very least allowed for quicker, alternate routes to its story reveals, as that’s the aspect it gets right all through to the end. But it doesn’t, and thus, uncovering the truth behind the murder mystery runs the risk of feeling like a chore.
Omensight is an interesting tale of repeating the final day before the apocalypse in order to unravel a murder that can save the world, but falls short in the gameplay department. Check out our Omensight review!
If you have a penchant for action-RPGs, or RPGs in general, and want something with an interesting twist, then Omensight is a great choice for you.
As for the story, it is kind of funny. Being The Harbinger is like being Batman. The way it’s written, The Harbinger only has a vague idea what’s going on. The witch that serves as narrator has to tell you things like “You’re The Harbinger and your job is to stop the apocalypse.” Amusingly, everyone else knows all about you and that you are an omen of the Big Deal End Times. But despite knowing that, they continue doing what they did before that got everyone killed. It’s like Batman showing up in the middle of a battlefield, everyone pausing to go “Hey, it’s Batman!”, then continuing about their day. You’d think an omen of the apocalypse might give them pause. It also makes some of the companion chatter funny. “Your combat abilities are wondrous.” Yeah, no shit, I’m the Harbinger of End Times.
Had it not been for a Youtube video showcasing a series of new releases this past week, I would have completely missed out on Omensight, a title that kept me entertained for hours, and a game I strongly recommend adding to your library.
