    Sword Art Online Hollow Realization es un juego que presenta dos graves problemas: por un lado, en un afán de innovar y ofrecer algo diferente, peca de uno de los sistemas de personalización de personajes mas absurdos y ambiguos que este servidor se ha encontrado en el género. Y por otro, no tiene bien claro que quiere ser, si un MMO o un juego que imita el aspecto de un MMO.

    Sword Art Online Hollow Realization es un juego que presenta dos graves problemas: por un lado, en un afán de innovar y ofrecer algo diferente, peca de uno de los sistemas de personalización de personajes mas absurdos y ambiguos que este servidor se ha encontrado en el género. Y por otro, no tiene bien claro que quiere ser, si un MMO o un juego que imita el aspecto de un MMO.

    Y al final, en esta indecisión es el jugador el que acaba pagando el pato, dejándole un mal sabor de boca y sin saber a que demonios esta jugando.

    Pero cuando uno esta enfrascado en una batalla, o mejorando el equipamiento con nuevas armas y armaduras, estas fallas quedan en segundo plano y queda un RPG de acción tremendamente divertido, con contenido para aburrir (y con DLCs en camino).

    Si eres fan de la serie y te gustan los ARPG, este es tu juego del año. Sino, hay opciones mejores, tanto en MMOs como en ARPGs.

    What i like of this game is its soul, how characters interact with each other, how they talk but other than that Bandai Namco really needs to improve how they make their games. This way of storytelling is the same I see on Saint Seiya Soldiers soul and it is not that great, you can do better, maybe you think it is fine because this game is also for portable but believe me, it is not.What i like of this game is its soul, how characters interact with each other, how they talk but other than that Bandai Namco really needs to improve how they make their games.

Because of my love for the franchise I give this a 7 but in reality this game can be a 4. Expand

    Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization is a good JRPG. It's made with diligence, dedicated to anime fans from which it's drawn, but also suitable for simple lovers of the genre.

    Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization is easily the best SAO game made by far. Not only is there plenty of things to do, but the combat, gameplay mechanics, and production is far better than the prior entries. It is clear a lot of work went into making this game, and they continue to add content with nearly every patch they've released so far. Unfortunately, it's weighed down by a low-stakes plot; awful party intelligence; and one too many systems at play. They've an ample amount of potential here, but unless you're a fan of the series or at least have a passing interest, it's difficult to recommend.

    Hollow Realization is easily the best game based on the SAO Series; however its far from perfect. Albeit it offers a functional scheme of controls, a rich world to explore and an ambitious relations system, its weak and boring story, confusing menus and poor character AI make this game a hard test for all those die-hard fans. If you are a desperate gamer then maybe you will have a difficult time with this game; if you prevail all of its flaws, then you will get rewarded with a game that overflows with personality and fanservice.
