    *Update*

    I've updated my original review of this game from a 5 to a 0, due to the numerous game breaking bugs. As things stand today, this game is not worth investing any time in, and that's coming from someone who got it for free. EA knows this thing is a turd. They have to, there is no way they could not.

    I've updated my original review of this game from a 5 to a 0, due to the numerous game breaking bugs. As things stand today, this game is not worth investing any time in, and that's coming from someone who got it for free.

    EA knows this thing is a turd. They have to, there is no way they could not. Don't expect major fixes to be forthcoming, this will probably be the last game Bioware makes.

    --------------------------------------
    Currently, the average user score for Anthem on PC sits at 4.2 Chalk one up for crowdsourcing, because that's just about what it deserves. Anthem is not a disaster the way some are saying, nor is it a triumph. It's a thoroughly mediocre game; beautiful and fast, but also extremely shallow with terrible design decisions throughout.

    The lack of social space in the game is the real head scratcher. It makes the entire world feel dead, or at least more dead than it already would. Fort Tarsis has the look of an area that was lifted right out of a 90s adventure game. People are moving around, but if you watch them, they aren't going anywhere, just following a simple script to move back and forth between two points. NPCs tell you they are leaving, then continue standing right where they are.

    For some reason you can see other players in the Launch Bay, but not Tarsis. This is never explained, but even if it were it makes no difference, because you can't interact with the other players anyway.

    The open world is beautiful, and strange. And dead. It's as if Bioware spent all their dev resources on level designers and graphic artists, with no one left to design an actual game.

    Right now, this game is worse than Destiny 2, or even The Division. It's probably on par with where D2 started, and a little bit better than the disaster The Division was on launch. And that's the silver lining; if Bioware commits the resources, the bones are there to make a good game, just like both those games did, after countless patches and dev hours.

    Will EA give them the time to fix it, and do they know how? Guess we'll see.    … Expand

I see people saying that their game crashes and will disconnect them from servers, but in 20 hours, none of that has happened. Levels can be repetitive when you've done a lot of "stand here for 5 minutes" missions. My biggest problem is the strongholds. There aren't enough to keep going. I haven't reached that state yet, but only 3 of them will not be enough for bio ware to have enough time to make more of them.

    Final ruling: Anthem has negatives, but they don't outweigh the pros. If you like being a bad ass and killing everything in sight in the coolest way possible. GET IT NOW!    … Expand

    The endgame in anthem, freeplay kill an ancient titan on gm2 get 2 blues, put all my consumables on and join a stronghold start at 2nd chest, legendary contracts collect shaper fragments (the same thing I done In the story a million times).

    The endgame will lose anthem much of it's playerbase it gets old very fast.

    Getting to endgame, I probably spent hours staring at a loading screen crashed multiple times, lost audio & connection to servers, with my friends CPU running at 100% burn in temps having to take breaks, I could go on and on man but the core gameplay is fun that's the only reason I kept going and why I'm not giving this a 0.

    This was was not ready for launch its in an unacceptable state missing many core features a game like this should have, the game has potential but paying full price for a half baked game is getting old and people are getting fed up with it.    … Expand

    The story is satisfying, but the real draw comes from getting to know the characters in Fort Tarsis between missions. Many of them have their own missions to offer and most of them have rich stories to tell. The Fort actually changes in subtle ways as you progress through the game.

    The facial animations are excellent and the gameplay is AWESOME! The customization of the javelins are excellent and I had a lot of fun with this game. The story leaves some to be desired and the missions are repetitive, but since they already have future updates planned (already late march) I don't worry about this. There are some bugs, but nothing out of the ordinary with a game like this within the first week of launch. We can all claim it shouldn't have any issues, but we need to be realistic about this.

    Anthem deserves more than its current score. Sure, it could have more content but games like Warframe and Destiny 2 have had years of development. So for an initial release this looks great, the mechanics are fantastic too. Such an enjoyable game with friends!

    Combat:
    For the genre it's part of, the combat is quite refreshing.
    Glad that there's a reason to use the skills you got equipped, what many games in this genre lack.
    My only gripe with it is the lack of "special" skills/weapons that could only obtained by completing something specific (Borderlands did this nicely).
    If it had such it would be complete.

    Javelins:
    Each having a role to play, though the melee one seems to be there just for those that like the playstyle of it.
    Ranger single target, colossus AOE/heavies, storm AOE/shieldies. They cover it all.
    Having enjoyed Ranger, Colossus is a lot more fun than it initially looked like. Mate's loving Storm, so I let him have that role.

    Exp:
    Happy that the exp gain is dependent on how well you and your party did, and doesn't punish you if you're a try hard (nuke builds in Warframe for example).
    It promotes going for combos, getting multi-kills etc, instead of just turning your brain off while grinding.
    Wish there was a use of exp once you hit max lvl. Have yet to reach it, but nobody talks about it, so I assume there's no exp gain afterwards anymore.

    Loot:
    The only reason to grind is to perfect your build, instead of getting everything and never be used.
    There being a reason to grind for such isn't there besides personal choice, but I can't recall any that really have. Everything can be done with sub-optimal gear.
    I do wish Anthem was the game that went that way, but then again I'm part of the small percentage that enjoys such (easily seen throughout other games).

    Quest-line/Story:
    Some nice NPC options - some conversations can go either direction
    Some annoying NPCs - conversations that lead nowhere, or shouldn't be had
    Traversing the town - slow, even with the sprint, this is my main gripe with the game. Just let me teleport around.
    Heard the ending to be bad, worse than ME3's ending, and I don't get it. It wasn't perfect, but it was fine, it made sense.

    Amount of content:
    Somewhat lacking for the genre it's part of. If they keep their promise and introduce more this will surely be another game I'll be coming back to once a while.

    Overall:
    A really nice game to be build upon, has really good potential to be one of the best in its genre, but that depends on the amount of content they'll bring in over time.    … Expand

(Sigan leyendo y daré mis argumentos)

    Está claro que es un mata mata si no te gustan... ¿porque juegas? ¿esperabas otra cosa? ¿te han roto las expectativas y pones críticas negativas por ello?

    ¿Un juego que estas intensamente jugando 50 horas sin parar y lo ves falto de contenido cuando en la play vemos algunos que tienen unas 6 h?

    Pienso que debeis de preguntaros si con vuestras críticas al gremio del juego le hacéis bien o lo que hacéis es conseguir más Regueton en en vez de más grupos como Rollings stones, Queens o los Beatles.

    POSITIVO

    - Visualmente: Simplemente nada que añadir pues vuestros ojos la realidad es imposible que la nieguen solo faltaba que los heates dijeran pues a mi me gustaría que fuera menos realista y que se viera mas cartoon como el fornite.

    - Interfaz: Completamente moderna, muy distinta a lo que estamos acostumbrado a ver por tanto creo que es necesario mencionarlo.

    - DLC: Gratuitos, no como Destiny que el juego te salia a 200 euros el juego a la larga. (y yo soy de los que lo tienen y a jugado muchísimo a destiny)

    - Nivel de juego: Tiene para elegir el nivel de dificultad que quieras como en Diablo III lo cual me parece muy interesante todo el mundo no es un PRO ni juega 6 h diarias.

    - Puedes Volar y control del mismo: Es super realista realmente parece que has cogido uno de los robots de Avatar y estás luchando contra los indígenas del planeta.

    - Escenarios: Tienen distintas alturas, te disparan desde montañas francotiradores, tienes que deshacerse de ellos para que puedas matar a los enemigos del suelo, lo cual hace que sea interesantisimo la organización del equipo para conseguir los objetivos.

    - Combos: Para sacar el mayor partido a tu alabarda lo mejor es conseguir hacerlo

    - Historia: Todo el mundo se queja de que los juegos no tienen historia, de que el contenido del lore es vacío, este es prácticamente una película en la

    - Idioma: Salio en español de primeras y con un doblaje que no es el mejor pero si aceptable.

    - Cinemáticas: Espectaculares, la gesticulación de los personajes es brutal.

    - Precio: Posibilidad de pagar 15 euros y tenerlo 1 mes para probarlo... me parece genial los mejores 15 euros invertidos de mi vida ni en una peli me divierto tanto como pasandome la historia de este juego. Y el cine os recuerdo que vale 7 pavos por 1h y media de ocio (sin contar palomitas y cocacola)

    NEGATIVO

    - Loot: Es un poco random pero sinceramente en el Diablo III (hablo desde este juego porque me parece una mecánica parecida aunque totalmente distintos).

    - Repetitivo: En algunos momentos puede ser repetitivo porque va corto de valuartes. Pero.. nada mas lejos que de un juego que acaba de salir y va a meter parches al mes siguiente metiendo 1 nueva raza como han comentado ya.

    - No se puede jugar en cualquier pc: Cierto .... pero su calidad es por lo que se aposto y el listón de los gráficos no se podia bajar mas puesto que en la E3 ya lo pusieron muy alto y creo que de ahi vienen todas las críticas la gente pensaba que iba a jugar una cinemática.. y claramente los PC a la calidad de la E3 rebentarian.

    - La IA: ¿que IA? pienso que las quejas sobre esto son tonterías puesto que es un mata mata no tienen porque tenerla , pero bueno ... como todo si , podria ser una peguita y se puede mejorar claro está.

    - El focus de los bichos: Bueno el focus es un poco random y eso... creo que deberian de mirarlo.

    For starters, Anthem has a p # $ the gameplay! That's what won most of its players. Fly like Iron Man, shootings, flying missiles, beautiful, noisy blasts that shake the screen of your television!
    But Anthem brings a story not much explored and does not captivate much, this for now since the game is being released in acts, 3 for now. But remembering that even being developed by Bioware, it is not a game focused on history as the Dragon Ages or Mass Effects.
    Another serious problem of Anthem are the loot, the weapons are practically identical, which is a serious fault for being a grind game, focused on farm. This makes the experience a bit annoying given that it is essential for a grind game, the player to repeat the missions several times in order to get better equipment.
    Compared with the trailer for E3, the game is different, but still the graphics are very beautiful with excellent light effects.
    I had no problems with servers but there are several reports of players complaining about instability.
    In my opinion, Anthem is a game that will be perfected over time, as well as the division and destiny. I think it was a little bit wronged at the beginning, mainly because of its connection with EA, but it still has time to redeem itself and be able to show all its undeniable potential

    Tradução em português:

    Inovador, gráficos lindos, jogabilidade surpreendente, porém... com certas falhas que acabaram prejudicando injustamente ou não o jogo.

    Para começar, Anthem tem uma p#$a jogabilidade! É o que conquistou a maioria dos seus jogadores. Voar como Iron Man, tiroteios, misseis voando, explosões lindas e barulhentas que tremem a tela da sua televisão!
    Porém Anthem trás uma história não muito explorada e que não cativa muito, isso por enquanto já que o jogo está sendo liberado em acts, 3 por enquanto. Mas lembrando que mesmo sendo desenvolvido pela Bioware, não se trata de um jogo focado na história como os Dragon Ages ou Mass Effects.
    Outro problema sério de Anthem são os sem graça, as armas são praticamente idênticas, o que é uma falha grave por ser um jogo grind, focado em farm. Isso torna a experiencia um pouco chata tendo em vista que é essencial para um jogo grind, o jogador repetir inumeras vezes as missões afim de obter um equipamento melhor.
    Comparando com o trailer da E3, o jogo está diferente, mas ainda sim os gráficos estão muito bonitos com efeitos de luz excelentes.
    Eu não tive problemas com servidores mas há vários relatos de jogadores reclamando da instabilidade.
    A meu ver, Anthem é um jogo que será aperfeiçoado com o tempo, assim como the division e destiny. Acredito que tenha sido um pouco injustiçado no inicio, principalmente pela sua ligação com a EA, mas que ainda tem tempo de se redimir e poder mostrar todo o seu inegável potencial    … Expand

    Yeah the game has some bugs. Yeah the Endgame is repetitive. But that can be easily fixed. And to all those who gave this game a 1 or 0, did you actually play the game? Or are your opinions straight out of youtube? Because if you would have played the game you would know that it is more like a Diabolo than a Mass Effect.

    If you play this game for the first 4 or 5 hours then you might easily be mistaken into being impressed. Visually there is much that is quite stunning, at least superficially, but beyond the smoke and mirrors what finally unveils itself to the player is a shallow, vapid and extraordinarily tedious experience. Customization is weak and limited, weapons are generic and gunplay is functional at best and lacks the power-fantasy feeling that other looter games provide. Then there are the loading screens, bad UI with menus and menus and loading between even basic features as swapping equipment. The central hub is lifeless and tedious to navigate and not a patch on what was shown in earlier gameplay footage and has been severely downgraded.

    Missions are generic and have little variance. The story is, quite frankly, laughable and despite what Casey Hudson said about players able to make choices in the game none of them matter. All dialogue options are bland and have zero consequence on the outcome. The loot is actually terrible and does not create any sense of excitement or generate any enthusiasm to continue the pursuit of new gear in the way that looter-shooters must achieve. After 70 hours or so you may easily find that you do NOT even have enough credits or pieces to craft a single masterwork and the desire to continue pounding away on the extremely limited endgame content dissipates as a result.

    The game is not finished. There can be no argument otherwise and the fact of the matter is that this has become a practice from publishers that simply cannot be allowed to continue. Releasing bare bones shells of games with a 'roadmap' and a promise to fix it eventually is simply unacceptable. Let us not forget that you are paying FULL price for almost nothing at all...it is not as though they release a quarter of a game and ask you for a quarter of the money. Currently the game deserves no more than a 3/10. It is functional for the most part and parts of it do look very nice but there's nothing there to keep you interested and even if content is added at a later date this game will struggle to recover from it's empty, soulless start.    … Expand

The game puts us in control of a combat armor on vitamins in a hostile region your goal and reduce to crumbs threats that hover over your city "Fort Tarsis" on the border of your civilization. The    Hello,

    Anthem is just the only video game that made me feel so thrilled with a gameplay that is really sublime, clearly if you are a fan of Iron Man and SF this game is for you.

    The game puts us in control of a combat armor on vitamins in a hostile region your goal and reduce to crumbs threats that hover over your city "Fort Tarsis"
    on the border of your civilization.

    The universe is rich, you could discover it by are written in many codices or through various discussions with NPCs.
    These discussions may be interesting but it tends to slow down the pace of your adventures to see if you want to know the last gossip of Fort Tarsis.

    CONS:
    - The game lacks optimization on the use of your PC's resources
    - Currently in exploration / Libre mode the content is somewhat boring but it should be improved through the different updates scheduled in ROAD MAP 2019
    - An improvement of the menu and various functionality of the multiplayer is necessary to make the game more fluid
    - A poor in-game store
    - More End game content through the dungeons (after I do not want to throw the stone on them because a majority comes to this contented with a destiny ...)

    PROS:
    - A huge graphic customization of the armor
    - A gameplay in the action phase very well thinking and really thrilling notice to the WARFRAME fan
    - An open world that holds the road (ff15 and warframe if you hear me)
    - A lore really very push and interesting to discover through anecdote and other history that make us discover a dangerous world
    - A roadmap that starts a week after the release of the game here looks really good, and it ensures content until the end of the year

    The reviews are also negative I think because the bioware fan expects a massfect while bioware to announce a warframe in the open world.

    It really meets the expectations of players who want a good action game sf.

    It's rare that I'm happy with a day one game, but I was able to play all the armor and they all have their charm that allows you to have a really colorful fight.

    I hope that my criticism will enlighten you on a game that deserves to be discovered.

    Sincerely,

    Wolf Hunt's

    P.S: I wanted to put 10 but we can always improve and even if I fell in love with the game I'm not blind so far.    … Expand

It wouldn't be fair of me to out right paint it only as such, with a narrow viewed mentality. I think there is many positives that I experienced, that out weighed the negatives. I didn't find any major issues with it. I'll start with the negatives first, but I'll admit, I couldn't find many, maybe that's because I'm not a very picky person and I don't nit pick things apart to the most minute features, of course that is rather subjective in view for everyone, but here we go;

    **Negatives**

    * Small glitch like a double Javelin that happened once, overlapping at its station port, when introduced to Tassyn in the cinematic scene.

    *Small glitch when I fly too high above ground and getting to a cut off point and my Javelin getting stuck at the side of a mountain which has happened once.

    * Rubber-banding issues when playing in some missions, but that is my fault because I have a crappy wifi connection, so I am partly to blame for my personal experience with the game.

    And that's all I can think of for negatives at the moment.

    **Positives**

    * I think the graphics are great, that they are sharp and very detailed. Thanks to having upgraded my desktop computer, it has improved the graphics and performance of the game to reflect the high quality put into it by Bioware.

    * I enjoy the dialogue among the NPC's that you run past and hearing what goes down among the people in Fort Tarsis.

    * The detail in facial movements of the characters in Fort Tarsis are very natural and malleable, even catching a smirk, a roll of the eyes in sarcasm or a slight open mouth in expression, blew me away. It gives an added layer to the voice acting and movement of the characters.

    *The voice acting is phenomenal and very high standard. I was very impressed and hope to learn more about the characters.

    *The story and lore has a lot of detail to keep me busy. And I have many codex to catch up on to read, to get the in depth understanding of the new world of Anthem.

    *Fighting mechanics are very easy to use and to pick up on. I found it enjoyable getting to fly in the air and to go in the water. They improved the mechanics since the demo for the water movement mechanics. My favourite Javelins to fight with has been the Inceptor and the Storm. I find they have some really cool combo abilities to attack with.

    * I happen to like the idea of fighting with others in a random group, and getting to work together and create tactics. It hasn't been negative as I thought it might be. But I've changed my mind since playing. Plus you do get to do missions on your own which add to a extra level of challenge.

    * I'm happy with the idea of getting to set your difficulty and that with each difficulty setting you get better items.

    * Overall functionality of the game has been very smooth, despite me having a sub-par wifi connection from my end of things (My fault).

    I know some people were talking about the servers being a problem or not being able to connect through their choice of platform, but that is something I didn't experience. I don't know how to articulate it, but, I think what ever those people experienced as issues, happened to them under certain circumstances that lead to those issue for them, but not for me. It is rather a 'some but not all' scenario.

    Anyway, I want to see more from Anthem, I'm a very patient person so I am happy when they are ready to put out more content. Hopefully adding more content to the characters as time goes by to evolve alliances and the story, and more gear and weapons to choose from.

    Evidence of another instance where the company who publishes the game want's the consumer to know what they should want. The backlash by EA and Microsoft telling people that they don't know what they want when we have had a standard set by great games like BL2 back in 2012. Then again they took time away from giving the consumer what they want to spend precious dev time for microtransactions in a full price experience without giving a worthwhile experience.

    If a movie was incomplete on release with a "promise crucial scenes and special effects would be added later" no one would watch the movie on release. Unacceptable in the video game market when the standards are trying to be set by the publisher and not the consumer.

    EA keeps pushing graphics as though they are the headliner to great games while Nintendo makes game of the year worthy titles annually on a handheld. Anthem is a weak experience on ground this company has treaded in before. It's the equivalent of Boyhood the video game. All those years of development, wasted.    … Expand

So updated Pros and Cons,

    Pros: Flying, Combat, Graphics, Exploration,

    Negatives: Repetition, Loading Screens, Lackluster Loot(non endgame), Mediocre Story, Slow movement speed in fort Taris, Overpriced Skins and Micro-transactions

    Final thought: This game has potential promise but its not worth 60.00 is its current state. Wait for it to be on sale.

    Update Feb 25, 2019 at 3:30pm EST. Just completed my first stronghold and guess what this trash game said connection error as soon as the boss died and took me back to the loading screen and i got absolutely nothing for my 2 hour effort. This game is absolutely garbage bioware and EA have both failed the gaming community. Yet Again the only thing left to do is just simply do not buy games from this company. Just trash im so triggered and there is nothing i can do because i bought a digital copy of this broken glitchy game with a loading screen for everything. I seriously hope someone can sue them into the ground for this game.

    This game had/has potential, Right now this game is hot garbage, there are only 2 Objectives in the game. GO fetch, of Go defend, with a boss or higher level bullet sponge sprinkled in. Right now I am Currently level 10, The first stronghold is unlocked for me, which if you played the beta, it is the beta stronghold. 10x Enemies basic enemies do absurd amount of damage and makes it basically unbeatable. The game is extremely repetitive mission to mission are identical in objective basically. Now its not as bad as Umbrella Corps but damn near close second.

    There are other things that I currently have issue with in this game. Number 1 damage output vs damage received. Example Using you the Colossus Javelin, you have no overshield just a health bar. That doesn't regenerate on its own. not even a smidge. Enemies can shoot you across the map with an auto cannon and take whole bars with each individual bullet. however if you attempt to shoot from the same distance with an auto cannon the damage you do is negligible. This is not a nit pick, this is core issue with combat in the game basic enemies can decimate you from any distance where is you are fighting mini bosses all the time.

    I will say this on the positive note. The game looks amazing. The graphics are probably the best there is currently on PS4 Pro. The flight and movement are also pretty damn fun, minus the lack of flight time but there are boosts you can use to help with that. To me that is the only thing this game is good for the graphics and the movement/exploration.

    Back to another thing that is really bad is the hit detection, as i said before any enemy can decimate you and its so trash how fast you will get put down, The game doesn't even tell where you getting hit from. you'll be in combat with infinite spawning enemies, then all of a sudden be downed and be quite puzzled on how you got put down almost instantly.

    Lastly the lack luster firepower of the ultimates, Anyone who has played you know the enemies with the blue shield that either fire a laser sniper rifle or auto cannon. I feel like its fair to say that one blast from my ultimate should obliterate that enemy well guess what not only did this 1 enemy take 1 blast from the colossus. it took all 3 shots and still had life left. That is absolutely unacceptable. Extremely dumb the enemy isn't even a boss but eats ultimates like its pez candy. This game to me is beyond dumb and i will simply wait for Ubisoft to show me what they got with The division 2.

    Bottomline: DO NOT!!!!!!!!! pay 60.00 for this game. Wait till you can get it for a bargain 30.00 or lower and it would maybe be worth it.    … Expand

    Bought this game for the great game showcase at e3 and found out it was nothing like it. Missions are repetitive and the loot is one of the most boring loot in any looter shooter. Even my friends have stopped playing so here i am alone in a game where there in nothing more to do after you are done with main story and end game content.

    Yes there are a lot of reviews out there that have given this game a not so stellar review but as a consumer we have to become more critical of those reviewers which most of us have grown to love and that is to see if perhaps this game may not be for them or had to high of expectations.

    The core aspect of the game is without a doubt entirely a fun ride all together though you have to ask yourself what you are looking for from Anthem. If you do not mind grinding endlessly with more of a focus on the abilities for loot then perhaps this game may be for you. People express that the grind is to much for less than stellar rewards well got a news article for you for pretty much every game like WoW, Destiny 2, Division to name a few all have grinding aspects to their game which at times to some people may not be as stellar as the next person.

    Connection problems are a bane for most online games at their inception and some companies tend to have better luck in regards to expecting it. The whole aspect is that with a release there are multiple variations of computer equipment as well as programs running that may interfere with the service you are getting though last time I heard they are continuously releasing patches as well as addressing them with their best solution they can make. I at times get the sound bug but that does not halt my enjoyment of the game though yes it is a bit of a nuisance to me to have to restart but it is usually quick for me to get back into the swing of things. Sometimes when I go do something in particular I drop like in a mission but the good thing is that when I relaunch and as long as that mission is in progress I can rejoin or perhaps it is ended so I just have to launch another mission and all the loot I acquired is still there saved.

    All in all I am having fun and I do recommend this game for to me I have gotten my money's worth out of the game and the good news is that if I need to take a break due to a new game coming out that I want to play I can always return and be able to be right next to my friends for the future DLCs are all free as they say but time will tell.    … Expand

The flight mechanic just feels good. The visuals are absolutely amazing. The detail put into everything is par for the course with Bioware, but beyond what any other studio bothers with.

    To be fair right now this game is a 7/10 with a lot of potential, its direct competitors started similarly lacking a lot of content and had their fair share of bugs too (Division, Destiny, Warframe), the exception to this is Borderlands 2 which I still regard as the gold standard of content inside the disk. This isn't an excuse for Bioware though, they shouldn't aim for mediocrity just because their peers under delivered too, but at least it's something to have in mind, but since it's published by EA nobody wants to cut them some slack.

    However, Bioware will be updating weekly with a ton of new monthly content and Quality of Life fixes, and they will be providing FREE story and world expansions. This for me is their saving grace, but people see EA and instantly start flaming, I can 100% relate to that but I decided to give this game a chance and I've enjoyed myself for quite a while now, around 10-12h in 4 sittings.

    The gameplay is super fun, as repetitive as you can expect in any other looter game TBH, it's like criticizing Diablo for just mindlessly clicking on enemies you know, and yes the first 24h after launch I encountered about 4-5 bug/glitches and I noticed that this game doesn't like to run with an overclocked GPU, after I returned the GPU to default settings I haven't encountered a single bug.

    TL;DR it's hella fun, albeit not for everyone and not content rich as any of the previous Bioware RPGs, but it can only get better and better month to month. Personally I don't regret my day 1 purchase since I know that if I get bored I can stop playing and come back when more content is released, but right now I'm really hyped each time I jump in one of my 3 Javelins, each one is a joy to pilot.    … Expand

    The characters and storyline represent BioWare's typical skill at worldbuilding and character building, and though I usually prefer a little more customisation in my characters, I can understand that given the way the game is designed doesn't lend itself to seeing your character's face very much it would have been rather irrelevant to add a fully in-depth creator, since the preset options you get are wide-ranging enough to fill all tastes and don't look like they walked out of the Uncanny Valley (I'm looking at you, Andromeda!)

    The combat and flight system is genuinely my favourite part of the game, it's so responsive and streamlined that I can go from fighting to flying and back to fighting with almost no interruption between them.

    The world itself (in terms of appearance, not setting) is simply stunning, there's no other way to put it. I could just spend all day exploring it and find a million small things to investigate or a thousand beautiful vistas to survey, and I'd still only have scratched the surface.

    Anthem is a game in its infancy. There'll be problems, what game launches without them these days, but Anthem has the promise to be able to do what the likes of Destiny has consistently failed to do; continue and thrive.

    It is only a shame that some would drag it down just based on their hatred for EA or what they perceive to be BioWare's fall from grace, but I think Anthem could be the step back from the brink that BioWare needs to re-establish themselves, and my hopes for the future of their other flagship series have been restored.    … Expand

    This game is bad, buggy, boring, and no where near what was showcased in the E3 Demo. If you saw the trailer for this game, that was just Bungie's wet dream of what this game could have been.

    A six year development cycle for a substandard looter-shooter that lacks anything even remotely compelling.

    The fact that the game is radically inferior to its E3 presentation demo is just the cherry on the cake.

    Avoid like you would the plague.

    I think the largest issue with the reviews so far was a lot of let down expectations. I had zero excitement for the game, even knocked it as a "third person destiny", until I got it included with Origin Access Premier. I'll just say from my approach of having no expectations for it at all, the game is genuinely fun to play.

I can see how the objectives and enemies can become repetitive but so was doing the same missions over and over again in Destiny, and I ate that loot up. I will say the game looks better with friends and none of mine have it on PC, so we will see how it holds up.… Expand

You can be easily    This review is based off how much do I look forward to playing and how much fun do I have when I play. If you are having fun - what else matters more? These games are entertainment.

    I look forward to getting into a javelin each day. It is such a great experience in the freedom to fly in a well-armed Iron Man suit. The combat is fluid and enjoy my engagements. You can be easily overwhelmed if you are not always looking out for your flanks. This makes all combat challenging aka fun.

    The big points:
    * The scenery is beautiful. Sometimes I walk rather than fly to get more exposed to it. Witcher 3 upped a further notch.

    * The combat is usually a good time. Last night I was in my storm suit and fought another storm. I was equipped for a ice/lightning combo and had a hard time as I could not get the lightning (strikes ground) to strike the enemy storm. The trick is matching up the ground targeting with air positioning of the enemy storm. This can be easily fixed with a ground to sky target or maybe I just need to spend more time in the suit...

    * Strongholds are immersive and have solid loot. They have width and depth and very good design. Can take some getting used to but it sure does add and a nice dynamic. Definitely challenging. As usual, a squad with prior experience makes it easier but not simple.

    * The voice acting is top notch. No, there is no PC crap in it. I cannot stand that. No dialogue seems dumb or forced.

    * The campaign mission/story was well laid out. I looked forward to each step and not just because I wanted to power through it. It all made sense. I love the Freelancer history. They were dealt a very bad hand.

    * Random missions/events are nice surprises. I like flying/walking around and having events just pop up that you can deal with or even join others already there.

    The only boredom in this game is the kind you make.

    That said I do look forward to more content. I thought that was supposed to be day one. Didn't see any, so I took a point off for that.

    * There a handful of bugs that do need to be cleaned up asap that interrupt a mission, cut out audio, hard crash or a chest you cannot open. I took off a point for that.

    Answer to gripes:
    -If you die, you can't respawn, and you have wait until someone reviews you.
    When you are in a stronghold true (like in other dungeon games). Otherwise you can respawn/rez with no penalty.

    -lack of diversity of surroundings.
    We are in the initial area. More climates are coming is my understanding.

    -Awful fast endgame and poor difficulty changes
    One live stronghold is hardly all the "endgame." I are already said how immersive and challenging they are. And BTW - you can lower/raise the difficulty.

    -Poor loot system.
    There was a bug that was giving too much Masterpiece loot. That's been corrected. Now there is "poor" loot. Each time I go through a stronghold I gained better gear. Were they Masterpiece's? Nope. but my loot got better so my toons got stronger.    … Expand

    It's a very good game to play max 100 hours. It's not a MMORPG you will play 3 years so don't judge it like that. If you want to have fun with friends, and don't think of this game like it's EA or "this new controversial game" and I promise you won't be disappointed. Don't expect it to be perfect... Overall nice game, NOT for everyone and every casual. :)

    Press fails gamers as usual, but what is even more disturbing, is the amount of gamers who are bashing this game. I created this account specifically to give this game justice it deserves and I have over 100 hours in the game already. If you are a gamer who is foolish enough, to have high expectations for a recently released game, then I'm really not surprised your opinion of the game mayPress fails gamers as usual, but what is even more disturbing, is the amount of gamers who are bashing this game. I created this account specifically to give this game justice it deserves and I have over 100 hours in the game already. If you are a gamer who is foolish enough, to have high expectations for a recently released game, then I'm really not surprised your opinion of the game may be somewhere in the red area. I knew it will have issues at release, it's common occurence these days. I actually expected it to have many issues after what I saw in ME:Andromeda. That's exactly what allowed me to see and appreciate the good things about it. I won't get into details about the flaws, there are many other gamers talking about them. I will instead tell you why did I fell in love with this game.

    Freeplay Map - When I started exploring the map, I didn't noticed it at first. I needed time for it to grow on me, but I finally did noticed. The amount of detailing in every area of the map is truly astonishing. Whoever created this map put all of their heart into it. You have to be blind to not appreciate the amount of detail that went into it. What is additionally amazing is that there are truly beautiful views of places you can actually visit. That's something rarely seen in other games. The beauty of the map is so great, that each time I go on exploration, I feel true child's joy. There are games that have to give you a question mark on the map, to make you go there and when you do get there, you don't find much to see, because level design is just so ugly. Some developers give loot crates in such locations to entice players to explore these ugly areas, but sometimes even loot crates aren't enough, because such games may not be worth seeing at all. Anthem doesn't need that, because the map is so beautiful, it is worth exploring it on it's own, even without any reward (there are some rewards to be found nonetheless) - sightseeing is it's own reward! The map in Anthem is a true piece of art and I'm not surprised that gamers, who didn't spent enough time with this game, failed to notice that.

    Overall Gameplay - Even with all it's issues, I kept coming back to Anthem. Something about the gameplay was fun enough to keep me returning to it. I played open demo and was in early access (week before world release) and I noticed some patching. Some of it was server side, so it was almost unnoticable. I noticed gameplay and especially gunplay tuning, which really made it work much better and is now much more pleasurable. Controls in the demo for mouse and keyboard needed tuning and they received it. It's waaay better now and makes the game much more fun to play. There where also additional settings implemented in day one patch, which made it even better.
    Another thing is flying. Flying in Anthem frequently reminds me of wingsuit flying in real life. It really feels that way, with the only difference being the fact, that you have a jet pack, so you're not constricted to gliding. Developers promised a highly vertical map for that and trust me, they delivered. Flying alone is great fun in Anthem and this game is so much more than just that.
    As of now we have 4 javelins (pilotable suits) in the game and each one is unique. They have a variety of skills to choose from and some special abillities like for example triple dodge on Interceptor, or extended levitation on Storm. I find each one of them highly interesting to play on it's own, but I do have to mention, that each time I'm playing Colossus, I feel like I'm literally taken out of Alien movie. The sounds of its autocannons, their graphical effects and overall feel of this weapon type (which is exclusive for Colossus). The flamethrower skill graphical effect and its sound. The overall heavy mech feel and sounds of Colossus. All of this and more just has to make this javelin an orgasmic experience for every Alien fan out there. It does for me!

    Virtual Currency and Customization - Virtual currency allows to buy cosmetics for your javelins. Different skins for various parts of your javelin and various other things. Microtransactions are normal for games like Anthem, but what is a bit surprising about Anthem, is that it's not at all hard to earn this virtual currency by simply playing the game. It's actually quite easy and pleasurable enough to do it. The customization system is also quite extensive and allows much freedom. In addition to that you have access to entire color palette for free, which is not the case in most games like Anthem.

    Great Coop with Friends - So far I don't recommend playing with random people, at least most of the time (especially when doing main story and side quests), due to various issues like bugs and exploiters who love to brake missions. On the other hand if you have someone to play with, Anthem is a great coop experience already and I highly recommend to play it.

    As pretty as it is, it is fun to fly around like Iron man. But there is much to be desired in this CHEAP Destiny Knock-off. A kindergartner could have cut up pieces of paper and glued em back together better than this game is cut-up and glued back together

    many people base their "mediocre" to good review on the "fun" of flying around, and while it is fun, this mechanic is not utilized in any meaningful way an just is nothing more than a gimmick.. Boring missions, boring loot, boring and really shallow dialogs, long loading screens everywhere..

    most of what was demoed before release has been cut out of their "final" full price product: graphics are downgraded, scenes and npcs cut out, items gone, missions gone, etc.
    and what is left is shallow and boring and obviously lacks content up to the point that it is just not worth playing for more than a week...
    it is unacceptable to argue that they will fix and improve the game later down the road and the argument that this game has potential ( which is true ) is not a valid argument either!! They have shown that they do not even know what the potentials for this game are because of their lack luster mission design that despite the fact that they have such a cool flying mechanic of their battle-suites does not utilize that and instead have you stay stationary on the ground with boring waves of stupid enemies advancing on that location... A lot of reviewers lost all their credibility here, if you just look at their positive and therefore incompetent reviews.. Another sad release for gamers.. Looking back the last few years we had our fair share of this kind of release behaviour.. ( destiny2, seaofthiefes, nomanssky,...) Do not get your hopes up for this title and do not defend this kind of bad business practise!    … Expand

    After a while, suspicion sets in: perhaps EA doesn’t believe in BioWare anymore, and had them release not only unpolished, but basically unfinished product to cut losses and avoid another total rework. [Issue#237, p.44]

    If you want to see Anthem’s lush jungle and glistening Javelins, do it right away — this game is losing audience fast, and there’s almost nothing to do after the campaign ends. Or check it out on YouTube to save yourself some nerves and money.

    It's obvious that Anthem didn't have enough development time, but had some great potential. It's a real shame, that everything turned out this way. Even now, the game can bring out positive emotions. Hasty climbers have sudden falls. No matter how ironic this proverb may seem, it's incredibly relevant for Anthem.
