I still can't believe how overlooked this game is. No awards, little public recognition - how is that possible? In a rather starved year of 2024's gaming, Banishers is a starlight of heart. Often my mind wanders to this game with a distinct feeling of yearning; for its characters, mellow worldbuilding, its pure and honest love. What a little treasure it is. I hope Banishers will find its audience in years to follow.

Almost 20hrs into the game and lovin it. Pretty straight, story driven yet hard decisions to make singleplayer experience and no bullshit openworld activities…this game was just what I needed. Love the art, the landscape, the characters and the lore. Personally I would like to see a tv series like this, anyone’s else thought of that ?

A fantasy-horror RPG set in fictionalized colonial America? They didn't need much creativity to show horrors there. Nonetheless, the game started out feeling like a Witcher 3 clone, right down to the flower picking. Then the story started getting dark. Then it got darker. Then it got darker still. I found myself made uncomfortable by undertones and storylines. I found decisions hard, and beyond morally gray. The story was engrossing and the things to do myriad. True to its puritan setting, everyone is a sinner. I find the combat to be a little clunky, but with practice there are some really cool combinations and many styles to choose from how to play. The crafting is limited but straightforward and resources needed are easily stated. If you enjoyed Witcher 3 and/or Greedfall and you like your story darker than that fresh cup of coffee this ones for you.

Just finished this. I would absolutely recommend it to fellow gamers. Brief summary points: The Good - Voice acting is the best I've come across in any game. Truly exceptional. Really helps you empathise with the characters - Graphics are superb - the people, the landscape, the buildings - Setting is really well done - Early New England, with colonists trying to hack out an English puritan life in an alien land - Concept is novel - the mixing of fanatical christianity with an everyday acceptance of ghosts, devilry and witchcraft really builds an immersive and unique atmosphere - the story is gripping, and the sidequests can be engaging too The Bad - There's probably not enough variety in the combat, and after a hundred encounters it can get a little samey - The map is big, and the fast travel points are too few and far between. You spend a lot of time running/climbing/ducking under in this game, and it's probably too much time. - The two points above combine to make the game longer than it needs to be. I'm a completionist by nature, but for once I didn't try to complete all the remaining sidequests before finishing the main. I just couldn't bring myself to spend 5 minutes running to a sidequest for the same fight I've had many times before, and then the same 5 minutes in reverse running back. - I don't think they quite got the gear/upgrade mechanism right. There's 8(?) items you can equip, and each can be upgraded 7 or 8 times. But the differences between the pieces are not significant, and some gear specialisms seem very unlikely The Ugly Nothing to report. This was a really good game, with no performance issues, no bugs, no massive frustrations at all. Really professional and slick.

Coming off of DontNods previous game Vampyr, Banishers takes a lot of the concepts and improves them into a new and unique story but also stumbles on some unnecessary fluff. Story-wise, following the tale of the banishers Red and Antea is excellent, DontNod kill it with telling an emotional main story as always that lets you choose along the way how to get invested with the community of new Eden and the things that haunt them. Even the optional haunting cases are all great and I recommend doing them to get additional background flavor on supporting characters which make the ending much more impactful. The missteps are mostly in the combat and the open world. Combat, while initially cool because of the skill tree that Red and Antea share, lacks some depth and towards the end of the game starts feeling button mashy due to a lack of combos. And the open world is beautiful to look at but a lot of double backing and not always the easiest to navigate, sometimes leaving me frustrated that I just wanted to get to the next fast travel point. Vampyr had a controversial morality system making you choose between killing NPCs for growth but obviously locking yourself out of their quests and effecting which ending you got but not always being clear about the impact. Banishers has its own version of this with letting you act as judge, jury, and even executioner for haunting cases by sacrificing the victims if you so choose, which will impact the ending. I dug this system but can see some people being annoyed with some of the vagueness in consequences and how it might effect which ending you get. I still appreciate the effort that DontNod took to do their unique form of emotional storytelling and enjoyed the hell out of this game.
