So while Ryse: Son of Rome is still on sale, I'm thinking of getting it.
I have heard it's really repetitive, and just ruins the game.

What are your thoughts about it?

+1. I bought the game on release and agree with what you said after "basically", I didn't watch TB's review. I did enjoy the story but not enough for that price tag. If it had a base price of 19.99 and was on sale for 50-75% I'd suggest it.

MGR: Revengeance, Crysis saga (Oh, the irony), Sleeping Dogs... Hell, even Bastion is way better, and they are different kind of games.

i liked the game because it one of the few hack'n'slash games with a rome theme. Personally i would recomend to wait for a bigger sale, at most the game is worth 5-10 USD. Ryse is a small game (i finished it in 6 hours), with very "repetitive" gameplay, what i mean is that the gameplay barely evolves. In this game you have light attack, heavy attack, ranged attack and a block/counter move, those are all the controls in the game and you get them all in about 1 hour of gameplay. There's also no incentive to replay the game whatsoever.
What i really liked was the roman theme, i find it incredibly fun to throw a pilum into a barbarian!
If you what a combat game i recommend batman arkham series, shadow of mordor, castlevania and dynasty warriors.
