Twinblade★ 3,893 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 THE GOOD Flying is exhilarating, and the views are beautiful Experimenting with new loadouts each mission keeps combat fun and satisfying Some side characters and their stories are endearing and interesting THE BAD You're frequently forced to land or stay on the ground The main story is incredibly difficult to follow Playing with others causes pacing issues, while playing solo can be tedious Boss fights are underwhelming and lack the excitement found in other combat situations https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/anthem-review-no-i-in-team/1900-6417093/ EA Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DynamiteCop 2,085 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 And this is Bioware's A team... I don't think they'll be around for long.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JonDnD 2,608 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Could have easily been the best game in it's genre . I'm still having fun with it just hope I can get thru this Freeplay part Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Casual 726 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 :kaz: tbh I never got the hype from this one, I thought it looked pretty bad the whole way along. still thought it would at least land in the high 70's/low 80s. Didn't think theyd manage to fall to xbox exclusive level. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
James Skywalker 528 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 It must be a good mix if it got a six. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Quad Damage 1,717 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 holy fuck this was supposed to be the second 90+ multiplat showpiece for xbox one x, after rdr2. a game that was so good and so technically superior, it would make people want an xbox one x for it, even though it was multiplat. now even if by some miracle it edges out the pro version, itll be a hollow victory at best; more western trash for vini to frame next to metro and ac origins.

jehurey 3,228 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 this was the big reveal for Xbox's E3 2017 press conference. Lemmings were talking about this game being the XBX killer app throughout that entire week. Game was running on XBX units, they said. serious question, has the past 6-7 days been the absolute rock-bottom worst days of the entire history of the Xbox platform?

Remij 4,670 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 ^damn man. This sounds so disappointing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JonDnD 2,608 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Its lame as fuck. Idk about the load times, I thought he had a good PC? I have it on a SSD and while they are longer than the average game I have never seen anywhere near 5 minutes. Id say probably always under a minute at worst. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
102020393023445948594 2,223 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 damn I was hyped for this. would have got it on PS4 Pro if it was good. oh well, more saved money. thought I was going to go bust after january, but looks like feb. was nothing but stinkers. March, DMC4, DOA6, Sekiro. Time to save. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmaltese★ 2,553 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Goes to show you just how good Bungie are. Destiny has had issues but nothing like the ones Bethesda and Bioware have been experiencing with FO76 and Anthem. These SP primary devs being feeling the pressure of making a giant MP game and failing miserably seems to be a theme. Stick to your strengths! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. House 3,371 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I predicted this and I didn't even pay attention to the game. I just assumed Bioware making an online loot shooting game would be disastrous. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
