    Before i start this review let me get this out of the way, i have played almost all the games that came from this company and this is solely based on my experience during my 27 hours i have spent in this game.

Before i start this review let me get this out of the way, i have played almost all the games that came from this company and this is solely based on my experience during my 27 hours i have spent in this game.

    I ll keep this short. This game for me is mediocre. i say this with great sadness due to the company behind it and its glorious history.

    Lets start with the positive.

    Gameplay: Exceptional combat, there is something very satisfying flying around Iron-man style obliterating everything in your path. Responsive gunplay, over the top environment and general graphics quality. In depth customization for the dudes that enjoy that kind of thing in a game. That`s all, seriously that`s all the positive and that baffles me.

    Negative.

    After the 5-6 hour mark everything becomes routine, the same old missions,go fetch that, come protect this and so on. Repetition in a game while it`s fun and it gives you a sense of progress, it is not that bad, however in this case it is boring, it`s tiring, the challenges are awful, competing against your team for resources IT IS bad,faulty, outrageous,wrong, change it, now.

    The Hub, yes my dudes the players hub, an eye candy of a place,astonishing to look at,however it is plagued by overthinking, full of crap npc`s that will tire you just by blabbing away your time with meaningless conversations, without any choices in the narrative like we used to adore in the Mass effect series. just traversing the hub it`s unbearable ,slow, time consuming experience that you can`t wait for it to end and get out in that gorgeous world to blow things up.

    The bugs. Where shall i start, the loading times? Averaging 2 minutes loading times with a high end rig and an nvme drive. Invisible or vanishing enemies, quests not registering (requiring you to restart) ,game crashing that caused me to miss some of the cut scenes having no clue what the hell was going on at times, missing out on quests, loots, and time, oh precious time.

    The loot. Unimaginative loot, different recoloring of the same weapons,the same boring loot (ah destiny destiny). For a loot based game like Anthem these kind of drops are...i leave that to you.

    I wasn't expecting this "Anthem". To be honest at a time i was very excited for this game,"omg bioware game, they must have learnt from their mistakes,this is gonna be an epic game". Nop, its not. ITS WORSE than Andromeda.

    This game has so much potential but as it stands right now, its bad, its rushed,its disappointing. Not worth the money.

    A message for the Devs. I know you have put a lot of time in the development of Anthem. I can see it, in the graphics, in the gameplay, in the concept. Don`t know what went wrong. The transition from unreal to frostbite? deadlines from EA? suits calling the shots? Don`t know, don`t care. Unfortunately it falls to you to fix it. Please do, i`d love to come again in a renovated Anthem universe.    … Expand

I would say it looks like BioWare's team has no experience in making a Role Play Game at all, nice try.

I am not having fun at all. the loading literally is longer than the gameplay. what were they thinking? I could see maybe picking this up in 2020 for 10 bucks or maybe 20. mass effect andromeda is better than this! that being said remember what they showed at e3 compared to the crap we got? how is this even legal? I cannot believe the ceo of ea hasn't apologized for this absolute disgrace of a game. Angry Joe and his team made a beautiful review on this game you should check it out before you decide on wasting your money. might as well throw 60 bucks in the toilet! we as a community cant keep letting these companies do this and get away with it! Divison 2 will be way better than this. spend your money on that before this crap. if you like the art style and flying just download warframe its free and a much much better game than this. after reading this heed my warning. or dump 60 bucks in the trash. yes this game will get better in a year. but that's not fair to you on day one! try to tough it out until divison 2 drops.

I have 16 gb of ram a i5 7600k and a rtx 2070. more than capable of running this game. I did put the game on a new drive with a brand new install of windows, which still fixed nothing.

    After another patch, I did get it running on all low, but at least I could play. I queue into the first mission, but the mission kept getting stuck at certain points never finishing and I'd have to join a new party. This happened for a couple of days.

    It was so bugged, I didn't get to complete the first mission. I will change my score once I can play the game adequately but for now a 0/10 is justified, it's unplayable. Which is unacceptable.    … Expand

I was looking forward to immersing myself into the world shown in the E3 2017 trailer. A world full of lush beauty, violent creatures, intense weather, personal relationships (ya know... remember the old BioWare?) and at the very least a world that felt alive. Somewhere along the 6 year development cycle, EA probably halted everything in the wake of Destiny's success, and someone high up decided to make this a looter shooter, instead... I was duped by EA and BioWare into believing that mash-up maybe could've taken us back to a better time in gaming, mixed with new gaming techniques to enjoy expansive worlds with our friends.... What we got was a half-baked game that has no clue what it was trying to be. If you think they're "working on fixes" then you've already missed the point... also, those fixes aren't coming, anyway. What an utter disgrace. Biggest let down in gaming I've experienced so far. Waking up after the very short honeymoon period of having fun shooting things was sobering to say the least. I have more fun watching the E3 2017 trailer on loop than I do actually playing this game. Hopefully one day soon, triple A gaming will just completely crumble and be replaced by AI where we can all be our own Javelins. Until then.... don't spend $$$ on hype anymore...… Expand

Played the demo and found under water travel mechanics to be very difficult. They've improved that by leaps and bounds in the release and even have fine tuning settings to help tweak the feeling for your individual style.

    Graphics are superb even though they are not at the level that was shown in the E3 videos prior to the demo or release. Still one of the best on the market.

    Javelin powers are nice, fun, fluid, and feel great when using them.

    The skin, paint, and texture system is by far the best I've seen in any game. It is incredible and I've spent hours just tweaking and playing around with different combinations to find one cooler than the one I just spend 40 minutes creating. They could have released just that as a stand alone utility and I would have enjoyed that as much as the rest of the game.

    Now for the bad...

    1) Some weapons feel numb and the shotguns are almost useless taking too long between shots to be effective when you are being swarmed by dozens of mobs.
    2) There are only 3 max weapons for each weapon type. Most of them perform in similar fashions with very little to differentiate one from the next.
    3) Lack of enemy types - Three basic humanoid enemies in the game - so gets repetitive real fast. There is a fourth coming in an update, that still isn't that many in what is supposed to be a massive world with a core system that is supposed to create new monsters at will when a cataclysm strikes.
    4) NPC's are stationary, never move their feet, barely move their arms, and don't feel like real people. They more resemble animatronics than a person that is supposed to be in a living world full of interactions.
    5) There is a story, it is weak and thin and doesn't even last until max level before you are through it. I managed to finish the story on three separate characters between levels 16-21. All well before the level 30 cap. That makes it feel like you are end game before you even hit an end game level.
    6) You can only have 3 characters, so it makes role playing with one character per Javelin impossible.
    7) After the main story and the grind to 30, you find yourself not being rewarded with much at all. With such as low number of weapons to drop, you find out quick what works for your play style. That leaves the game void of anything worth the grind to max level. Master craft weapons start dropping at level 25, but what does that get you... they still look pretty much the same as level 1 weapons.
    8) Weapon design is very simplistic and lacking any style that makes me want to have a weapon. The coolest weapons to me are the ones that are used by the Colossus and they all look the same except for very minor changes between the models of auto cannon and the grenade launcher.
    9)Main hub doesn't have a chat and if you are grouped together, the game doesn't even put you all in the same social hub. It took our group of 4 and split us up into four different social hubs so we couldn't even check out each other's suits up close.
    10) no end game content. This explains why they refused to say how many hours of game play the game had. The Division 2 has already said it should take about 30 hours to get to level 30. After playing the beta, I can agree with that. Anthem would never go on record for a time frame... huge tell that something was amiss in that area.

    The list goes on and on and on. This game could easily have been polished for another year just adding content. Instead Bioware is forced to release it in this state by EA, because EA has shareholders and a schedule that cannot be skewed otherwise share prices drop. Its all about the shareholders people, don't think for a moment that EA gives two &*(#@ about releasing high quality games. They care about money. If you check their ticker on yahoo business, not a single article mentions Anthem... everything is Apex, Apex, Apex.

    I feel bad for Bioware because it is a shadow of its former self which most people knew when EA bought them out, that was going to be the result. Here were are seeing it first hand. There are very few developers that generate thoughtful, properly crafted games that tell a great story. Most of those studios are not owned by a major publisher. Even when critic reviews, which are rumored to be paid for, don't rate the game high, that is a huge red flag.

    Fortunately, we have the option of shifting over to the Division 2 which releases on the 15th of March and is likely to garner much of the customer base of Anthem. Its beta had more content than Anthem's release and is just as beautiful. Its benefit is that Ubisoft has actually put effort into a sequel that builds on Div 1.

    I am not saying I won't come back to Anthem. I will keep tabs on it after I get my fill of Div 2. Good luck Bioware... You'll need all you can muster to make it through the storm    … Expand

    Is not worth $60, wait for free to play or big discount. Or wait until dev release the content it was meant to have. Meanwhile, you guys can seriously try EDF 4.1 and find enjoyment (and gameplay depth) over there.    … Expand

    I want to give this game a higher review. It is the most fun I've had in a looter shooter than I can remember. Playing the Storm is literally what it would be like to have Gandalf in an Iron Man suit.

    However, this game is so bugged out and has a long way to go. It's unfinished and needed at least another month to work the kinks out. It will get better over time, but this release was atrocious.

    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.
