    Fun game. A bit different from the previous SAO in that it's primarily gun-based fighting. Inventory management could be a bit better. Also upgrading your stats to meet the requirements for new skills and weapons a little awkward. I play primarily with an Xbox controller and the controls take a little getting used to. I've played the game about 10 hours so far.

    I’m not going to lie, I really enjoyed this game, except for some aspects I’m going to mention.
    -The graphics: I really don’t think this used all the potential of UE4, since the game is optimized for “old” devices and I have a new graphic card, I don’t like the way some characters are displayed in low-render resolution.
    -the load screens: the game is FULL whit load screens, or at least    I’m not going to lie, I really enjoyed this game, except for some aspects I’m going to mention.

    -the load screens: the game is FULL whit load screens, or at least that’s what you’ll think at the beginning. When you advance more in the game, there won’t be that much. This is because the same reason the other problem, but this one can’t be fixed, it’s “easy” to add 2K/4K-optimized graphics, but reducing the amount of screens for one device to another is impossible, basically because the entire game would change.

    That problems apart, I really enjoyed this game and the new DLC, but it REALLY has a lot of story and text, what I think is maybe the best thing of the game, but if you’re not so fan of reading that much (there’s really A LOT of text) you won’t probably like it the way I did.

    -graphics: 9
    -quality of the graphics: 6
    -gameplay: 8
    -durability: 10
    -secondary missions: 10
    -story: 7-9 (depends on what you like)
    -optimization: 7
    -quality-price: 7
    -specs requirements: Low
    -Variety: 9
    -Tutorial: 6 (to long, some parts were difficult to understand what you needed to do)
    -Multiplayer: 7 (it’s a pain to search for a match)

    —extra aspects—

    Excellent character customization
    Lots of variety (weapons, gameplay, etc. The aesthetic is always FPS)
    Freedom
    Special events
    HUGE store and weapon types
    Big map

    –what to change in face to the future
    -optimization
    -loading screens
    -matchmaking & rooms
    -tutorial

    Thanks for reading, Sergio.    … Expand

    I'm addicted to the game and love it. There's a lot of flaw with it, but it is worth playing if you're a fan of anime and Sword Art Online.

    Ai (allied) are sometime very stupid and useless and sometime very useful. It seems the programmer of the game forgot something in it. Beside the Ai problem, the game's great. Better than most other shooting out there.

    This world favors guns and blasters (and rather rare laser swords), so the combat system is quite unusual for the genre: it plays more like anime-styled Destiny or The Division than traditional JRPG. Which is good, because fights make for the most of gameplay in Fatal Bullet. [Issue#228, p.58]

    Fans of Sword Art Online will really appreciate this little gem, while people not familiar with it should watch the anime first.

    At the very least, Gun Gale Online could have been a world worth exploring. But no, Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet offers nothing to keep you but freely gives more than enough to make you wish you had the time you spent playing it back.
