It feels like a cry for help, showing what they want to work on instead. Raids are still not a thing in the game after all this time, so aside from the experience, you get from the quest. Sure there are a few weapon blueprints you can find but, for what? You can’t go back into the quest with them because you can’t replay it. It is just the exact same experience afterward. Or farming prime weapon and warframe parts to then level up to go back to more farming. Back to leveling up weapons and warframes if there’s anything you haven’t built. It feels like the quest was rushed to going back to the standard gameplay when it should have focused until the very last minute on an experience akin to their previous game Dark Sector.Especially if the post-game after the quest is still the same grind as it has been for years.īack to farming reputation for the multiple open worlds.

To a heavily curated experience, with a strong narrative that also shines more of a light on the player characters. Back To Warframe and Its Grindįrom having to grind and grind to get specific items to start this quest. Creating a jarring shift in tone and crumbling any tension I felt in the story. Because halfway through the near 6-hour long quest, it shifts gears back to the game’s normal gameplay. It is an experience that I never wanted to end, because it did, sooner than expected. As well as several feature-length cutscenes and incredible writing, right up there with The Sacrifice. There are unique boss fights that take skill and picking up on visual and audio cues to defeat. Sneaking around, picking off your targets quietly and one mess up can compromise your mission. At one point you even have to play like in a Splinter Cell game. This was incredible to me and it didn’t stop there. If you didn’t see the gameplay demo from July, it features unique characters, with unique user interfaces, abilities, and parts to play in the story. As it not only focuses on the Tenno, it instead focuses on multiple different characters. The New War takes this to a completely different level though. Having a completely new playstyle for players to take advantage of. In The War Within, it was the first quest where the player could use the Tenno. From here onward, be aware there will be some spoilers.Īs players of Warframe should come to expect from the big cinematic quests for the game, they are always heavily modified experiences. So if you’re interested in playing it, I would highly recommend it if you’ve acquired your Necramech (which is only needed for 5 minutes of the quest, weirdly enough) and Railjack. However, for me to describe the quest and why I feel like it is out of place, I will have to state here that there will be light spoilers ahead. So did it stick the landing? Yes, it did, in fact, it was a very fantastic quest for the game. But it had so much pressure on it due to the wait and the bar set for it in terms of quality.

Warframe: The New War was the culmination of everything built up from The Sacrifice, The War Within, and The Second Dream. This disappointment doesn’t stem from the quality of the quest but from the after-effects. Presented gameplay is very spectacular and judging by the ratings and comments under the video, fans of the game liked it.After waiting for about 3 years for the latest cinematic quest for Warframe and finishing it, I was left feeling a tad disappointed. Finally, we watch Teshin Dax - one of the more important characters from Warframe's storyline. He then changes perspective to play as a Corpus engineer named Veso, who is struggling to survive in Earth's orbit. In the demo shown at TennoCon 2021, we see the player play as Grineer as he battles the Sentients on the open Plains of Eidolon. One of the new features, which we will encounter in The New War will be the ability to play as other characters, in addition to the chosen warrior. Fortunately, it turns out that Digital Extremes was not idle and presented a 30-minute fragment of gameplay from the new expansion during the event. Although the DLC was announced years ago, the coronavirus pandemic delayed the release. During yesterday's TennoCon 2021 the devs showed the first gameplays from the upcoming Warframe expansion called The New War, which will be released simultaneously on all platforms - including PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox and PlayStation of the last and current generation.
