    El multijugador más decadente de todos,admito que la campaña es buena pero realmente Gears siempre se ha caracterizado por su multijugador este es muy pobre además que está en un pésimo estado Armas mal equlibardas Mal sistema de ranking
    Escopeta asquerosamente deficiente Falta de contenido Bugs y más bugs este juego se fue a la mierda en La primera operación

    Great story, improved combat and some atmospheric locations were the best thing about this game for me.
    What let it down was that some locations were rather barren, and most locations were bereft of life. If they had added birds, insects, more atmospheric dust effects and so on, the areas would've felt much more real and the game would've been much better.

    And while the game is very pretty for Xbone game, it does not compare to the best PS4 has to offer. HZD on PS4, even tho old game, is still ways prettier.

    Tecnicamente es muy bueno, graficos e ilumincación. Me gustó que salieron mapas del Gears 2. Lo que no me gustó fue la histora, pienso que esta mal estructurada, los personajes no muestran un desarrollo en la trama. El argumento es bajo y sin lógica en comparación a las 3 primeras entregas del Gears of war.

    El personaje principal de Gears 5 pareciera que fuera invensible y que siempre gana, esto en mi parecer es lo que pasa en muchas nuevas peliculas actuales, que tratan de crear personajes invencibles, reveldes y que no presentan desarrollo y se sabe como terminara todo.

    El multijugador está bien y a 60 FPS en XONE y en XSeries X a 120 FPS hace una agradable experiencia y el modo Horda mejoró en comparación al desastre de Gears of war 4.

    Espero que The Coalition en sus proximas secuelas mejoren la coerencia y diseño del modo campaña y si presentan nuevos personajes principales no creen el estereotipo de empoderamiento. haciendo al personaje predecible aburrido y antipatico.

    They even went out of their way to fix the story part which wasn’t the strong site of the previous game (Gears 4). In gears 5 the story isn’t just good on its own but it really fits well in the overall Gears story. Another thing I want to mention is that they finally made the characters good, some of them still need some more details in their personality and a bit development but overall it is really good now.

    Un juego que si no es mejor que el 2 y 3, supo adaptarse a la generación implementando diversos mapas y tipos de ecosistemas para dar una experiencia distinta a lo que estábamos acostumbrados, la idea de que marcus, baird y cole cada vez pierden más protagonismo me pone algo triste pero supongo así son lo cambios y ojalá logren adaptar gears 6 a lo que nos tenían acostumbrado Epic Games.

    Good visuals.
    Campaign is a bit rubbish. The characters don't really get any complete or resonant arcs. The story is literally an entire games worth of fetch quests. The only meaningful story beat doesn't even get time to breathe.
    Repetitive gameplay. It's a relatively fun action game but truly a 360 era game. I liked that the open world was short and sweet, but they're all go here and do

    I liked that the open world was short and sweet, but they're all go here and do a shooting gallery. That being said the open worlds are soulless and the second open world just looks ugly.

    Bit overhyped. That being said runs really well on xbsx with minimal frame drops. Quite buggy with some pop in.

    If you want a mindless shooter on gamepass it's alright, just nothing special.

    It's more Gears which you already know if it is for you or not. Decent enough title but for me, just too much more of the same and the open world sections only served to pad out the play time whilst adding nothing to the genre. Gunplay is great as always and the graphics are top notch.

The graphics are the best part of this game easily, but I think I still prefer Gears 4’s aesthetic compared to 5. But I really can’t praise much else here. It’s a serviceable shooter, the minor changes they made to combat somehow turned me off from the shooting here. But when most enemies are bullet sponges, you just kinda brainlessly shoot until they explode. Really not engaging gameplay here guys. The story is ok I guess? I feel like I need to play the trilogy still to get some of the deeper plot here but I don’t think that would help at this point lol. Kait’s story is interesting, but as a character I just don’t find her that interesting. Same with the rest of the cast honestly, aside from Marcus obviously. When he told Fahz to stfu, that was probably the best part of the game. Overall, I just really didn’t have fun with this entry. I don’t think I’d ever play it again honestly. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What makes a good game good is the story and its feeling in the style it represents, however in this game it is more shown that the game is great for its graphics and people don't seem to see the story doesn't really represent what it was made to be as, to show how the art of war is like (though yes this is typically war in gears 4 and 5 keep reading forward to see what I mean). They made the enemy come back with no explanations of how they came back and simply did what the original games NEVER did, shared secrets and made the story about just 1 person, also what are the odds that the grand daughter of the locust queen is with the son of the person that ended the war. It makes me sad to see the gears franchise to be changed when the ending it originally had was perfect. I've played the gears series ever since I was a child and never had criticized the games, so I'm hoping that this franchise will have a turn around and is ended where it should be ended this time.

    It also includes two very open areas which you can explore in order to unlock new abilities or learn more things about the world. There aren't many things you can't do in them, and the side quests are very generic, but it's a nice attempt to make the game more re-playable and fun.

    Lastly, the game takes a while to pick up, the pacing is sometimes weak and the desert area drags quite a lot, but in the end it's definitely a worthwhile experience.

    As for the multiplayer, it works well, there's a decent amount of game modes to choose from, and there are many customization options.

    The game wasn't stable or smooth in the online multiplayer at all, not very good because of that

    Gameplay and scenography are incredible and for sure some of the greatest examples in the last years. I was not moved by the story which I found a little unclear as it was presented

    Answer: 75 characters is between 10 words and 19 words with spaces included in the character count. If spaces are not included in the character count, then 75 characters is between 12 words and 25 words.

    Love that they added a semi open world element to some levels and gameplay is still just as great as the last game.

    Tytuł który na starcie Xbox Series X pokazał jakie moce ma ta konsola. Za Gears of War nigdy specjalnie nie przepadałem, ale w ten tytuł całkiem przyjemnie mi się grało.

    way more interesting story the Gears of war 4, and alot of new fun and good ideas added to the campaign, this review is only about the campaign, but so far they improved alot but the game could have been so much more, they are definatly going to the right direction with the campaign

    Good combat, good story, pretty bland open world snow and desert section but was fun using the sled to travel. Haven't played the other Gears of war games so not too invested in the story but it was decent enough. A large variety of enemies and satisfying weapons kept the game quite interesting. Also missions felt quite distinct from each other, which is a big plus.

    Para mim esse é o segundo melhor gears, história fantástica, gráficos lindos, gameplay maravilhosa. Só fica em segundo porque o felling de jogar gears of war 2 foi o melhor pra mim, mas gears 5 é fantástico não erra em nada.

    While very beautiful, the game protagonist didn't click with me, the AI allies aren't that smart or helpful.
    Story was meh at best.

    Gears 5 is an odd thing; it's neither a grand leap forwards, nor a complete rehash of what came before, and therefore sits somewhere in the middle of the two. On the whole, the improvements do outweigh the negatives (the non-linear approach to campaign levels and the small changes to horde mode being some of the most notable), and while The Coalition still has some work to do to really make the series its own, this is a far bolder and more varied approach the relatively safe Gears 4. If you love shooters and you want a good place to jump back into the series, this is perfect place to work the rust out of your lancer.

    Gears 5 offers a solid portion of brutal action with several refreshing new things. If you have intentionally avoided games from this series, the fifth sequel probably won´t change your mind, but if you are looking for a quality action game and you are still a fan of multiplayer, try it.

    Gears 5 proposes a breathtaking solo campaign and a generous array of multiplayer modes. Even if the recipe remains classic, we really want to go through with it. The characters are rather well written, the environments are often spectacular, and Jack the robot adds some salt to the gameplay. A visual feast and glorious action game that perfectly demonstrate Xbox One X's true power.
