SHOULD I PLAY FARSIDERS? With plenty of better action RPGs around right now, it’s probably safe to skip Farsiders. While the artwork and soundtrack are delightful, the story is a jumbled mess of ideas and the English translation is poorer still. There are some neat ideas for combat, but the dull AI and sludgy pace keep it from ever feeling exciting. TIME PLAYED I played Farsiders for two and a half hours. I traveled through a portal from a violent cyberpunk city to a fantastical, alien version of Camelot, where King Arthur and his knight Lancelot sent me to retrieve moonstone fragments that were meant to be attached to Excalibur. I recovered the first fragment after fighting my way through a treehouse casino deep in a swamp, and I’ve gained several new skills and spells as I leveled up my character, Camilla.
