Foregone lured me with its beautiful art style just to disappoint me with repetitive levels, shallow story, uninteresting combat and total lack of originality.

Graphics are solid. Gameplay feels clunky: the main character can't move while meleeing or shooting (unless airborne). The missions are waay too hard.
The game was so boring I could only play half of it. I usually try to finish these types of games but I'm really bored. The only good thingThe game was so boring I could only play half of it. I usually try to finish these types of games but I'm really bored. The only good thing about the game is its music and graphics. Items are very limited. Upgrade system is not good. You can only change the properties of the item you use in side quests. Bosses are very easy. Level design is bad. Trouble finding secrets. The graphics are complex, most of the time you can't see the platforms. When you die, you can lose all your money with heavy penalties if you don't get it back. The story of the game is not interesting. A game that used dead cells and souls-like metroidvania features but failed.
With stunning pixel-art graphics, solid combat, and a considerable amount of character customization, you can easily sink a few hours into Foregone, maybe more if you delve into more challenging difficulty levels. However, if you’re looking for a complex Metroidvania full of backtracking and deep lore, I would look elsewhere. Foregone may have left me feeling a bit cold, but if you’re looking for some straightforward side-scrolling action, I suspect it will nicely scratch that itch!
