    It's an alright game. I like the art style and the design but there are some major balance issues. I don't think there should be any one shot kill weapons imo.
    But the worst aspect of this game is the pricing on cosmetics. A bundle for just 3 a handful of guns (not all) that is TEMPORARILY available is priced at well over 80$, it's ridiculous.

    This game would not even launch without me enabling TPM 2.0. Any game that requires me to make BIOS-level changes just to play it is an immediate uninstall.

    Never mind the fact that the anti-cheat is basically malware.

    I highly do not recommend this malicious software masquerading as a game.

    Counter-Strike clone but unbalanced, less fun and uglier graphics. It's Riot games, don't have a lot of things to talk about them and their history (founded in 2006, 2007), both of their products are just cheap copies from other games (CS, Dota). After 3 years, this game still hasn't a Demo replay system, same as LoL(which finally has voice chat after 9 years).

    To easy gameplay. Bad balance, bad maps design, bad ping(70 on stch when cs go is 20). Skill isusue players who can only +w spam abilities and shoot. Bad recoil system too randomly, to easy movement system and to boring gameplay. Mb good optimization but to long loading. Its game to booring but for ls mb good

    After spending some hours in this game I cant say this game bring any kind of fun. The characters is dull and bring no diffrence. And the game is full of cheaters, and the matchmaking is terrible and they force you to stay in the game haha, if you leave you wont be able to join any other game etc. No thanks! This game goes into my trashcan.

Without effective methods of fighting the inner cancer from the community itself you are hopelessly held hostage in a game that is supposed to be a team game, while not having a team and no possibility to get out of this nightmare without facing heavy restrictions.

    Just another Riot game that is a clone of another popular game (CS:GO), first of all, I have no idea why Riot made their own propertiary launcher, instead of releasing their games to Steam, GOG etc, it's so far the dumbest thing about this game, second, why the store only has 4 randomly selected skins and 1 overpriced bundle, it takes ages to get the skin that you want and it'sJust another Riot game that is a clone of another popular game (CS:GO), first of all, I have no idea why Riot made their own propertiary launcher, instead of releasing their games to Steam, GOG etc, it's so far the dumbest thing about this game, second, why the store only has 4 randomly selected skins and 1 overpriced bundle, it takes ages to get the skin that you want and it's unbelievable that Riot still didn't fixed this since 2020, and I love when Riot is doing nothing but releasing skins and being proud of their **** kernel-level Chinese spyware- I mean anti cheat and report system that is not functioning at all, the gunplay in this game is probably the worst one in the FPS history, who the f at Riot thinks that putting RNG as "spray patterns" was a good idea? The Vandal for example has a "spray pattern" only on the first 7 bullets and then it completely gets randomized, and the ADS somehow makes the guns more inaccurate when spraying, the max inaccuracy on Vandal is 1 on hipfire and 1.02 on ADS, again what the hell Riot was thinking when adding ADS to every gun, just to make it worse than hipfire, also I don't even need to talk about its community, I know, every online game has a toxic playerbase but Riot's games' playerbase is one of a different kind, they're starting an argument, just to bait you to answer and get you banned and Riot doesn't gives their smallest **** about that, some person just started to flame me for no reason and we reported each other and I got banned for a whole month meanwhile they didn't received any ban, how is that even fair? The game gets updated regularly and all it does is just ruin the already bad optimization and add more bugs to the existing ones, and lastly even in 2023, the graphics in this 2020 game looks like it's from a 2004 game, thank you rito indie game company for making this unplayable game, it's been 3 years and you guys are still refusing to add a replay system because you don't want to expose your **** anti cheat and non-existent smurf protection. Even 0/100 is a generous one for this game.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Valorant seems to be causing negativity to many veterans and new players because this game itself has an extremely toxic community (Especially players from Vietnam). The status of players playing afk, smurf, hacking, as well as toxic attitudes happens quite a lot in competitive, perhaps Riot's punishment system doesn't respond to player reports many times, while Riot itself is always proud of their so-called "punishment system" extremely fair. Meanwhile, Riot is only focused on making skins for guns like how EA does with their games. I really regret spending money on Riot's game and also disappointed in how badly they manage their game. But I really hope Riot improves their punishment system in Valorant and the other games they manage… Expand

    Nice and interesting in the beginning, but that's just the red carpet when u enter a room. After that, you see a different story. Purchasing bundles n skins, is essential in this game not a must tho.
    If you have a Razer set, then be prepared for bugs concerning Razer Synapse.
    Most importantly, the support team. I haven't received a single fair treatment from that team ever, not once.

    Most importantly, the support team. I haven't received a single fair treatment from that team ever, not once. Regardless of their paragraph of explanatory but that's just paving a nice path to their own benefits and own decisions. Let's say you need a reset for your account, their only solution is for you to find an alternative email with a suggesting username and (remember as much as possible the bundles you purchased). So basically, I can just claim i bought a champions skin of 2022 and 2021, what a surprise, you might suddenly get one without even technically buying it. They say smurfs are the least of the problems then how is that possible if your system suggests to find always an alternative email instead of just resetting a current user's email!!
    Now there is not a single game that you can find without toxic behavior or even taunting, let's make this clear. But in Valo? you will find a different level of toxic behavior. You can get bullied and taunted even threatened and let's say you are the type who stands his ground, be prepared for a ban regardless of who's fault is it, or who even started the manipulation. Your best choice, is to always mute the opponent's text, and cross your fingers that the MRR matches you with good ppl, otherwise your guaranteed for a screw up from both sides coz the amount of players who wants to de-rank, is crazy.
    Yes they do upgrade and update from time to time, with bundles and season acts and so on, but that won't cover the blemishes that you are going to face in this game. Your only choice is to find a group of ppl whom you can trust and know that you can level together, because without them, you will be stuck with wherever they choose for you, and still that won't mean easy peasy, you have a good team then voila I'm in the upper league with the immortals, lol hell no. You still have a long journey, coz some ppl started playing this game since it came out, and are now Bronze 1 level in the new Season.
    If you never played or heard of this game, its an alternative to CS:GO but with abilities instead of flash bombs, smoke grenades and fire bombs. The bomb is the Spike in Valorant.    … Expand

    The weapon balancing is terrible, nothing can beat the vandal. Also, other weapons than the Vandal are getting worse, which benefits the Vandal even more. In addition, more bugs are added with each update. Play it yourself and you can see what I mean. Almost every time the Vandal headshots, I don't know if it could be the hitbox or that the bullets are more forced to the head but it is annoying.

    Can you find me the exact competitiveness of this game? Another FPS fan service for kawaii anime colsplayers, uwu, *O*. Graphics and game modes look like a beta game with no finished content. The thing that impresses me is that kids from the 90s who grew up with Unreal and Quake are also playing.... God save us and forgive us from this

    Valorant is nothing but a RANT game. You shoot someone, get objectives, and be the most valuable players and some of your jealous teammates would intentionally make you lose then bait you to say something utterly ridiculous and get you banned from the game.

    You tried, but its time to find a different game that takes you seriously.

    i have played so many games in my life and this is by far the worst game i have ever played. first of all its a very bad copy of another game. its inconsistent, every day it feels like you are playing a different game, it feels very rng based and biased. infested with hackers and toxic community. just crap and updates made it even worse.

    Valorant has a high-quality and clean release without any problems. The game will definitely please fans of the competitive FPS genre. The eSports potential of the shooter has only become established over time, and the first tournaments are already planned. However, a high entry threshold requires serious skill training. But this only makes the game more interesting.

    Overall, Valorant is a great game to play if you're a fan of first-person shooter strategy games. But it is also something that someone without experience with games like CS:GO can enjoy and pick up quickly. The Agents are, for the most part, balanced, and the planned addition of more should keep the game fresh. The overall style doesn't really land and the sound design needs to be fixed.
