    Valorant is a cheap Counter-Strike Rip-Off! The only thing Riot Games does is cheap Rip-Offs of Games and advertises the sh*t out of them.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It can get boring if played casually. Frustrating for people who don't have time to properly learn the game and grind hours per day. Aiming an take time and effort to learn the game well. Learning to hold youare important important in gunfights when shooting. Keep in mind Valorant isn't a casual game if you're playing 1 - 3 rounds of casual play. You'll need to play for hours in the game actively if you want to be good, and improve your aiming. Or other aspects/areas of the game that you want to improve and work on. Last point I'll make is in 1 - 8 rounds you'll get smurfs. They'll either one tap you, or go super try hard, and obliterate your team. You'll barely get a chance to play, or have it affect your gameplay even if you got a chance to play. There are bugs, and glitches in this game which still haven't been fixed to this day.… Expand

    This game is very not balanced, like how the enemy run and gun and headshot me, but when I run and gun, i hit no one, this clearly means that this game need to be fixed especially the RNG.

    Just the worst online game that you could play today. The game came out in 2020 with a very high-profile advertising campaign, and I admit that they could fool me, but this is the biggest disappointment in my gaming life. The game looks like it's 2010, but it's played like it's 2000. Characters move like tanks, only less maneuverable.

Shooting in CS is not bad, it just suits only this game, and Valorant is a new game that parasitizes on old ideas, outdated ideas that are good only in the environment of their own cultural phenomenon. And after all, the game really had potential, if the graphics had been done with cel-shading (imo), it would have been much more interesting. It's not so difficult to make at least a good more live shooting (I can find the code on the GitHub in 5 minutes, but what can a Riot with their money do...). Get rid of the CS mechanics and focus more on other, more modern projects, and the game would be just wonderful. Knowing that Riots' main strength is supporting their projects, even the average team shooter would live a long happy life. But in the end, we see only the stagnation of the genre, parasitism on ideas without trying to improve them, and an attempt to please the lowest castes of players. Valorant can hardly even be called bad, it's terrible, but i added 2 points only for the fact that it at least works stably, and I have not met so many cheaters as in other games.… Expand

    Because of the game itself is free, it's too easy for people to smurf at lower ranks (such as Iron or Bronze). That ruined the whole gaming experience.

    The beta was okay, nothing special really, it reminded me of CS GO mixed with abilities. The map design was bad and the graphics were a joke.

Я большой фанат Riot Games и пристально следил за этим проектом с самого анонса. Так вот отвечая на вопрос почему 1. Потому что как по мне для компании которая работает уже 14! лет в индустрии, которая имеет бюджеты о которым многим просто мечтать. И внушительный штат сотрудников, этот проект худшее что они могли предложить. Недостатков у игры масса и их все думаю описали до меня.Но я укажу на те что как по мне стали просто не простительными. Ну во первых анти-чит система, которая в онлайн-шутере должна быть очень проработана. На проверку оказалась не готовой для ввода априори. Техническая поддержка не то что оставляет желать лучшего, ее по сути нет. 10! дней ожидания ответа и все что мне сказали укладывается в одно предложение "мы не в курсе узнайте сами". Но при взгляде на игру сложилось впечатление, что бюджет был не так уж велик. Компания сделала не самую прорывную графику, для улучшения скорости на многих устройствах, но своей же анти-чит системой убили эти старания. В итоге графически игра не сказать что прям очень, а заоблачных скоростей так и нету. Как по мне Valorant это чисто киберспортивная игра, за ней приятно наблюдать, уверен будет прикольно смотреть турниры и хайлайты, но играть в нее просто пока не интересно. Я играю со времен збт и когда после релиза я наткнулся на баг(о котором сообщал!) который видел в бете, это просто показало отношение к проекту. Компания не стала переносить релиз хотя знала что игра сыра, и несмотря на весь хайп на стриминговых площадках, устоявшийся Lol и Fortnite не редко берут верх над проектом которому еще недели! нет. Над ней еще нужно работать, а ставить игре 10 только за то что " я верю в разработчиков" просто обратный ревьюбомбинг и то и это не правильно.За игрой большие киберспортивные турниры и развитие в этом плане, но стать сверх популярным проектом, лично для меня ей не стать, никогда… Expand

    There is only one game mode (for now) and the maps are very lack luster. They are just a bunch of corridors with nothing particularly interesting. They all feel the same but with different textures and colors.

    I like the characters and their unique powers, and I can surely say that the powers are the only good thing about this game (for now). It makes the round much more interesting and add a good tactic layer on top. Tho some powers do feel much more useful than others, like the Ice-barrier from Sage which is extremely useful in all kinds of situations.

    The visuals are good, but they keep reminding me of Overwatch and Fortnite. One thing I like is the character interaction, they talk all the time and usually hint something useful, like saying they encounter multiple enemies or something.

    I'm pretty sure this game will get better with time, but right now it's very poor in content. They maps really bother me, they are way too simple and boxy.    … Expand

    Edit: I'm gonna expand this review a little bit by comparing this to CS:GO, LoL and Overwatch.

    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.
