    For Honor was one of my most anticipated games ever. As someone who loves studying the history of these cultures depicted in the game, the idea of them all doing battle in a semi-realistic and competitive environment was enough to get me completely on board.

As someone who loves studying the history of these cultures depicted in the game, the idea of them all doing battle in a semi-realistic and competitive environment was enough to get me completely on board. Which makes it truly heart-wrenching to write this review. In this game's current state, I simply can't recommend it. It's been nearly ten months since the game's release and the game is still plagued with bugs, connection problems, and abhorrent balance issues in spite of constant promises of improvements from the developers, who've only shown themselves to be more and more incompetent as the months have gone by.

    Let's start with the bugs and connection. In 4v4 modes such as Dominion and Elimination, I'd say matches completely disconnect 30-50% of the time. Given the game's peer-to-peer connection, this wouldn't be nearly as much of a problem if player's were compensated and rewarded for their achievements and time played in matches that disconnect. Even though this would be a no-brainer feature to add (at least as a band-aid fix while proper fixes are worked on), it remains entirely absent.
    Onto bugs (and exploits). This game has a ton of them. Up until a month or two ago, there was a bug known as "flicker", where basically, due to a rather lenient input window for certain attacks known as 'zone attacks', it could first make the attack appear to be coming from an entirely different direction before going into the zone attack's proper direction. Given that zone attacks are often some of the fastest moves available to heroes, this glitch could be exploited to a game-breaking degree, turning already hard to deal with attacks into un-reactably fast, risk-free moves. Combine this with another glitch known as 'unlock tech' that allows attacks not technically aimed directly at players to be uninterruptible and unpunishable, and it makes for a very frustrating experience. While flicker has been fixed, unlock tech remains, albeit in a slightly different manner.

    Onto balance. There are four classes of heroes: Vanguards (jack of all trades), Heavy (slow and defensive), Assassin (mobile and damaging at the cost of being slightly weaker defensively) and Hybrids (mixtures of the other three). Orochi, a samurai assassin, has two viable moves at a competitive level of play: Top light attack, and zone attack. This is because all of his other moves are easily counterable or just outright useless compared to simply parrying, something all heroes can do. This in turn makes Orochi a predictable and boring hero to play as and against. Now let's compare him to Warlord, a viking heavy and one of the strongest heroes in the game. As a heavy class, Warlord has faster light attacks, better dodging abilities, obviously better defense being a heavy, he has an unblockable headbutt attack that deals a small amount of damage and is fast enough to apply pressure on a defensive opponent, he has a hilariously long throw distance of 6-10 meters in a game filled with lethal environmental hazards, he can throw players against a wall for considerable damage even greater than his heavy attacks, his heavy attacks are uninterruptible past a certain point in his animation, and can be chained into light attacks as well as vice versa. Remind me how are these heroes even in the same game? One has a symphony of usabillity and viable options, while Orochi (much like multiple other heroes in the game such as Warden, Kensei, Shugoki, Conqueror, Lawbringer, Berserker, Raider, the list goes on...) can only spam one or two usable attacks (if that even) to compete. This doesn't even begin to describe the larger underlying balance issues such as defense maneuvers in general being far too rewarding and safe compared to attacking, the game being based almost entirely on reaction time as opposed to other fighting game fundamentals such as spacing and mindgames, and it makes for a game that is simply boring and fundamentally broken at a competitive level. Combine this with a slow, ignorant, and indecisive team of developers, and it makes for a game that can only be described as frustrating on every level. They have promised fixes to most of these problems I've listed, but after many months of patiently waiting and watching developer streams, these remain to be only promises with no real ETA.

    Nonetheless, this game has a truly massive amount of potential, and still has its fun moments from time to time, which makes it all the more frustrating to see it slowly die like it has been. If the game does eventually get the fixes it so desperately needs, I'll update and/or remove this review. But I wouldn't hold your breath.    … Expand

Although the storymode isn't the best it gives the best opportunity to get the hang of the game, first level I played on hard just to quickly learn and revise my strategies after that I jumped right into realistic for the rest of the game.

The game modes are simple and straight forward.

    One of my favorite games of 2016! It is definitely fun to play with with friends and learning the each unique character is fun to get into. It is easy to find a character you will love to play as, fighting and defeating a tough opponent has never been so satisfying in a multiplayer game!

It is by far one of the most addictive games I have ever played. Period. This is due to the highly competitive nature of the game and the very rewarding combat.

    One of the biggest strenghts of the game is its combat. Its extremely easy to learn individual movesets (unlike other fighting games), the difficulty lies in how to string those movesets together plus how to best combine them to beat your opponent. Combat in For Honor is rivaled by no other figthing game in my opinion. Its nature as an easy to pick up, difficult to master game is executed perfectly.

    There are essentially four game modes. Duel (1v1), Brawi (2v2), Dominion (4v4-territory type), and Elimination (4v4). Which mode you pick depends upon individual preferences such as how competitive you are and whether you prefer team play or riding solo.

    There are currently 14 characters divided into three classes: Knights, Samurai, and Vikings. For the most part the characters are well balanced. Matchups are not rock, paper, scissor based like some people claim. When you're just starting out, you may have difficulty with certain characters. But once you become experienced this is not the case. I have been beaten by, and beat, every class there is. Victory is dependent on the player, not the class.

    As much as I love this game, it is not without its flaws. Firstly, the player to player connection is at times terrible. However, this is more of a problem in the 4v4 modes. As someone who mainly plays Duel and Brawl, connection issues occurred probably 5 percent of the time. Quitting is tied to this. When a team or player is behind, or they simply just don't like losing, they'll just quit. And connection will either time out with the quitter or you'll be left with a bot. But Ubisoft is adding punishments to quitting like a wait time, so this is hopefully an issue that will be fixed soon.

    Secondly, there is an extremely steep learning curve, which I think drives many people away from the game. Not only do you have to learn your individual moveset, but the movesets of every character in order to learn how to exploit individual weaknesses and avoid particular strenghts. There's also the mechanics of counter-gaurdbreaking (getting out of a grab move) and parrying which took me roughly one-two weeks to master and I still screw them up sometime. There's also the fact that many people playing the game now are very experienced. So winning matches will be difficult at first. However, once you learn all of these things. The game becomes unimaginably addictive and fun.

    Third, there are character balancing issues. I said previously that victories are dependent on the player and experience, which are true. However, there are some characters that have advantages that make them more challenging to beat than the norm. For example, vortexes (move chain that is difficult to break out of), 50/50 moves (50 percent chance they do one move or another, and if you predict wrong you get punished), and moves that are too quick to defend against. A win is definetely achievable if you're experienced, but will require more focus than the average character.

    Next is the Single Player. Many people seem to have an issue with it because its uninteresting and bland, which I completely agree with. But people don't play For Honor for the single player, they play it for the multiplayer. Furthermore, the single player is essentially just a comprehensive practice mode. Its great for learning the mechanics of the game.

    Finally the community. Because of these issues, the community is a lot smaller than it once was. You find yourself matched up with people you've fought against before. This isn't a constant thing, but at least once a day I fight around two differnet people I've faced before. The next problem is the commmunity can be pretty toxic at times. If they don't like the way you play or they're just jerks, they can quit on you, taunt over your dead body, and straight up send you hate mail. All these things have happened to me constantly over my during my time with this game.

    I know it seems there were more cons than pros to this game, but the pros it does have far outweight the cons. The enjoyment derived from the gameplay of For Honor makes it a game I highly recommend. If you're patient and willing to learn, you will spend dozens upon dozens of hours playing this game. I hope my review was helpful.    … Expand

    It could be a great game. Fine original combat mechanics, cool visuals, competitive gameplay. But it has one problem: online almost doesn't work. From every 10 matches I can finish one, or two. In other cases players quitting, game crashes, etc... And it's a pretty big problem for an online game.

    For Honor is a great concept with a wonderful, fresh and unique battle system that delivers well. You start off the game creating an emblem on a shield, after that is complete you have the choice of playing through single player or multiplayer; there is no really point in playing single player unless you want to unlock stuff (This is mainly a Multiplayer game). From there you can choose which multiplayer mode you want to take part in, duel ( 1 VS 1), Dominion ( 4 VS 4), and Brawl ( 2 VS 2). I really enjoyed playing duel the most the other ones I was carrying the people I was playing with and then getting destroyed; after you choose the mode you want to play you choose the faction you want to represent, and from there you can choose three or four different warriors from that faction that are all unique with different weapons and move sets.

    For Honor is a solid game with a cool concept and great gameplay, but it suffers terribly from the peer to peer network it can take minutes to connect to an opponent, while in game your opponent can glitch out on you so much making it impossible to play and giving you a loss that is a huge problem.

    For Honor is a multiplayer game. The story is lacking a lot but the online gameplay is intuitive and interesting and unique. This is a title I will continue to play for a while. Goodbye crappy CODs. This is really all that needs to be said.
    P.S. Almost forgot DEUS VULT!

    There are a lot of negatives reviews on this game but in response to that, this game is a disappointment to those who were excited for it. That is not to say it is still not a good game. They need to create balance. There is one way overpowered faction that you always and I mean ALWAYS win on if you play it. This can turn people off because that is practically the only faction you have toThere are a lot of negatives reviews on this game but in response to that, this game is a disappointment to those who were excited for it. That is not to say it is still not a good game. They need to create balance. There is one way overpowered faction that you always and I mean ALWAYS win on if you play it. This can turn people off because that is practically the only faction you have to choose if you want to stand a chance. As for the controls I find myself yelling at the game because I have the analog stick in between two ways of the defense mechanic. This is causing my character to get repeatedly being hit over and over again causing him to finally die. Which leads me to my next point, the spamming in this game is incredible terrible. Let me give you an example at the start of every match you run up to your opponent and press o(b) to stun him then you can hit him 3 times then stun him again, which doesn't even give your opponent a chance of fighting. It's all great and all until it happens to you. Another thing that can happen is you can repeatedly press O(B) to stun your opponent until he falls off the edge. This is why I have a hard time playing multiplayer, because you or your opponent don't get a chance at actually fighting its just spam after spam after spam.

    As for the Campaign goes it is decent nothing incredibly moving but also not terrible. The campaign about 70% of the time is literally just the multiplayer except that its telling you what to do. There is right next to no thought process that went into the campaign that would make it unique or that would make it worth your time. It also not very challenging even on a harder difficulty, the only time I had even a little hard time getting by was the boss battle. THE BOSS BATTLE. Seriously? It was the only reason any hardcore gamers would ever play the campaign is because of the challenge, and the boss battle is the only thing that could be scraped up? I'm not saying I like playing every game on nightmare or extreme difficulty. But I do like to have a little bit of a challenge once and awhile. This game does not offer it. As for the story line it is pretty cliche and there were no surprising moments that added to the story. It is all pretty predictable about what would happen in the story. I will not reveal it to prevent spoilers. There is a co-op mode and I'm not going to lie it was pretty fun something about something slicing up guys with a friend makes the story a whole lot more tolerable.

    The graphics in this game aren't as great as Watch dogs 2 but not as bad as watch dogs 1. They do have pretty good graphics though to say the least. The blood is not very realistic as they appear out of the body not cuts. What I'm saying is you take a huge hit at a guys arm and his arm's ok but there's a lot of blood that appeared out of nowhere. With these type of games you need to have a wound where the guy was hit. Not like a game from an old call of duty game (or even newer cods) . All in all they need to patch a few things in the game before its too late for it. There is hope for the game but they have to nerf classes to make it more tolerable.    … Expand

    An addictive, nuanced and surprisingly deep battler, prevented from being a killer by its lack of variety. [Apr 2017, p.73]

    The campaign might disappoint, but the game’s one-on-one online duels will take you to Valhalla. [May 2017, p75]

    A brilliant multiplayer battler with a combat system that captures meaty melee battles like no other, but a mediocre single-player unfortunately drags it down. [Apr 2017, p.86]
