I don't recommend playing this game on Medium difficulty, because then I think your choices don't really matter. You'll win every fight and get the super goody good ending that everybody else got. Then you'll forget about the game and move on to your next dopamine hit. But the game could make you feel so much more than just empowerment and satisfaction that you can get from any other game. I recommend playing Pyre like so: - Start on Medium difficulty. - When you meet a new friend, increase the difficulty to Hard. - After each win, enable a Titan other than Yslach. - After each loss, disable a Titan. The fact that losing a fight in this game doesn't result in a "Try again, go back to checkpoint" is the unique selling point of this game. You can lose, and the story will move forward, taking that loss into account. The fate of your allies and enemies will go in different directions, and that's amazing to watch. THIS is the unique thing about this game. But if you win every Rite because the game is too easy, you miss out on this whole aspect! I wish there was no difficulty selection, and no manual restarting of Rites, but instead an automatic difficulty adjustment happening sneakily in the background as I play.

Listen, I love Hades, but this is Supergiant's best game in my heart. Pyre is a Supergiant game, which means the gameplay is a little experimental, but deep and interesting. It also means the story, characters, art style and soundtrack are all absolute wins. It'll likely take you a minute to get the hang of, but is definitely worth the trouble - crucially, this is a game that doesn't punish failure but considers it a feature - and once it starts to click, you'll find it becoming your favourite visual novel/fantasy 3-on-3 basketball tournament simulator.

I feel like calling this an RPG doesn't properly portray what the gameplay is going for; this is a Sports Game. A very stylish, unique, 3on3 battle-basketball sports game with an intense story mode

I always said this game didn't get the love and attention it deserved, but had never written a review for it. Well, I'm fixing that now. This is probably my favorite of all the games Supergiant has made, even over Hades. It's a fantastic game that once again showcases Supergiant's skill with art, music, gameplay, and story. Never mind that it looks like a sports game, I hate sports games and I loved this game. If you found yourself on this game's page and you don't own it, you owe it to yourself to purchase this game and give it a fair chance, even if it's full price.
