    Game is absoulute cancer. Too many tryhards, so many people rush and don't let you get a chance.

    Cheaters here and there, mostly untlimited stamina and more OP stuff.

    I wouldn't buy even if I chose to buy it or get myself killed.

    Ubisoft, fix this **** game. Really bad. Honestly I got this game for free so I don't give a ****

    What might have been an ok game, ruined by terrible balance and greed. Devs ineffective at making any real changes, the defensive meta and DLC characters will always reign supreme.

    Advertising was outright lying around launch, selling it as a completely different game than what it is. Campaign is a glorified tutorial.

    It took me a good 20 minutes to find my first match just to see 3 people teleporting all the time making it impossible to hit them,after being confused on why samurais could teleport,i searched abit about the game just to realise it had p2p servers making people USE lag to win This game COULD HAVE BEEN GOOD but they were too greedy. Shame on you.

    Si estás preparado para una experiencia de juego frustrante, pero estás dispuesto a dejar una gran cantidad de dinero sólo para que mejore un poco, For Honor es el juego para tí. Investiga por tí mismo para que descubras todo lo que tienes que gastar si quieres tener una cantidad decente de buenos ítems.

    The viking campaign is a step in the right direction, but feels bland and uninspired.

    Haven't played the samurai campaign, but i guess it is just like the others.

    Multiplayer:
    Every game (especially dominion) there is a part where you feel extra cool. Maybe you took on that enemy that kept killing you, or maybe you captured a point or whatever. But that cool feeling gets absolutely drowned by the absolute horse poop moments, like when your fighting someone, you're super close to winning the encounter, but they spring away, unscathed. Or take that same scenario, but then that persons teammates rush into battle, killing you like a bug on a shoe. Sometimes i am fighting a battle i know i cant win, so i back up. Then i get stabbed in the back, and those 2 enemies are throwing me back and forth, hitting me, and for a final hooray, chops my head clean off. Maybe it's just the fact that humans find bad stuff twice as punishing as good stuff rewarding, but every round 1 cool thing happens, and 4 bad stuff happens. And maybe that arises the"git gud", but i aced the knight campaign on hard.

    TL;DR Totally worth the money, but i got the product for free, so....    … Expand

    The Heroes are exteremely unbalanced

    The Costimization seems like a lazy money grab, yeah u can earn everything for free but to even grind a full set for one heroe is just too much

    So you rly shouldn't buy For Honor the game will probably never be good.    … Expand

    The game started with a lot of potential, but has degenerated into a "Grind for Steel" and "Spam light attacks to win". I don't recommend this game to any player looking for a FUN fighting game.

    It could have been a good game, all the pieces are there, but it's full of extra grind to encourage you to buy stuff in the in-game store. Don't support such practices unless you want all your games to suck like this.

    Game would of had some potential had it came with dedicated servers. I gave it 2 because the combat system and graphics are good. I was fortunate to not buy this game before all my buddies did and all regretted it afterwards and could not get refunds avoid this game at all costs.

    Overprices, boring after 10 hours.

    Very well optimized but that's about it.

    Singleplayer is lame, AI is retarded and gameplay is not that bad but nothing special too.

    One of the few games that I refunded on Steam.
    Multiplayer oriented game of medieval combats, mostly duels.
    Trailers, intro videos, advertising, graphics are great...but gameplay, player interactions and combats aren't.
    Few things to do, looong grinding .... it wasn't fun for me.

    The game is pretty looking and the animations are great, but otherwise it is really lacking.

    The controls are extremely sluggish and frustrating, especially with Mouse & Keyboard. There are moves that are far more useful than others and can alone win you a fight.

    I've had many crashes, all for various reasons relating to the game.

    Microtransactions.

Попалась куча игроков, которые одновременно бьют и пробивают защиту. То есть начинает бить, получаешь урон, хотя стоишь в блоке, а удар противника был простым, не пробивающим.

    I did have some issues with the game servers early on, but they seem to have been ironed out. And as mentioned, the voice acting and the story mode could have fleshed out a little better. But if you look past those issues, For Honor is a wonderful title. The variation in game modes makes sure that there is something for everyone, and the maps are rotated enough to keep things fresh. The character classes allow you to choose a play style that suits you, whether it is the strength of the Heavy or the speed of the Assassin class. And with controls that are so smooth and optimised, it never seems as though any class or enemy is overpowered. So, if you excuse me, I’m going to don my armour, collect my shield and blade, and head back out to the battlefield... my team needs me.
