tl;dr fun game for gear progression players who like making builds, and action game players.

Keep it mind that the current game's iteration is no longer an MMO, but instead a dungeon-based ARPG with an emphasis on gear progression. You have 7 characters (classes, essentially) to choose from, all with have their own differing skill sets. Weapons are interchangeable so you're not locked to certain weapon-types. Your main source of stat-changing items come in the form of echoes, the equivalent of slottable runes or gems in other games, and some have unique effects that are triggered under certain conditions.

If you enjoy games like Diablo, PoE, Warframe, etc, then you'll definitely get your money's worth with this game. Expect not to be getting 100's of hours of playtime in its current state, being in Early Access. It has a low power ceiling compared to other games of the genre, but there are plans to raise said power ceiling as they prepare for the game's full release.

For those coming from outside the genre; if you enjoy fighting hordes of enemies, tackling on different bosses with unique mechanics, collecting increasingly better gear, fine-tuning and upgrading your gear to fit your preferred play-style and don't mind grinding/farming for specific items, then you'll have a good time with this one.

The only convention I've ever gone to, and I didn't even have to leave the house.

Thank you Hopoo Games.

Thank you very, very much for this wonder of a game.

Ok tHiS iS ePiC, VeRy coOl!

Jumped into this game with mild expectations. Was suprisingly content with what the game had to offer.
Fun hack'n'slash gameplay, a diversity of characters with their own unique story, albeit abit copy-and-pasted. The artstyle reminds me of Persona which is just eye candy for me.
I'd definitely recommend trying this game out if you're looking for a casual MMORPG to play.

tl;dr it's a good game, play it.

I don't play VN games and this was my first experience with the genre. First time playing it back when it was just released, I didn't even make it the second day because it was so slow. After a few months, I decided to come back to this game due to all the hype surrounding it.

So, second time, I generally enjoyed it. Not sure whether if it was my different state of mind or I just randomly started to enjoy it but regardless. This game was just a suprise, seeing how I expected it to be like reading a long, boring book. But I was thoroughly suprised with this game and would recommend it to anyone who has even the slightest of interest in this particular game or genre.

♥♥♥♥ game.

I would like start off by saying, I'm sorry that I pirated this game in the beginning. I was unappreciative back then. Now, on to review.

I found out about this game when I was looking through torrents for games to play while I was over at my grandparents' because over there, there's no internet. I stumbled across Bioshock Infinite. Now, I would like to state that I've never really heard of this game before. I decided I might get a few hours of this game.

I found myself completely immersed into the world this game presented to me. I felt like I was the main protagonist and blocked out everything around me. Every feeling he felt, I felt. Everything he said, I muttered. Everything he did, I followed. I finished the game, and wasn't pleased with it. So, I decided to buy it.

The story was amazing. It worked perfectly with the atmosphere. The characters was a huge asset in the story, each with their own unique characteristics and how their personality complimented each other. The gameplay is alittle bit iffy at some points, but overall it's great. The enemies are also different from each other, meaning you have to strategically defeat them. Some are your normal 'I'm gonna shot you in the face' and some are 'To defeat me, you're gonna have to do vigor combos and plant crits on me'.

Graphics are just.... just MAGNIFIQUE! The amount of detail that goes to everything is just breath-taking. EVEN TRASH LOOKS NICE. The characters fit in every cutscene and basically, everywhere you go. Nothing seems out of place, not even the things that ARE out of place. Lighting is just right, not too much, not too little. I'm no artist, but this game is just a beauty to look at. It's like heaven on earth. (Yes, that's a game referrence)

This game towers absolutely EVERYTHING when it comes to voice-acting. Are they voice-acting or were they just secretly voice-taped during their daily life? Because, I've never heard so much emotion. Trust me, you will never go "That doesn't right. He's frustrated but why is he talking like he's laughing?". I would like to personally see each individual voice actor and give them gifts, just to congratulate them.

DLCs are abit lacking but for what it's worth, I'd recommend you getting them, every single one. Burial At Sea explains the aftermatch of the game and will give you abit of nostalgia if you've ever played Bioshock 1 and/or 2.

Overall, amazing game. It is my favourite game of all time, that is, until another one takes it place, but that'll be awhile. The only thing I would like to complain about it, is the eyes. Some cutscenes make Elizabeth's eyes so wide, like they're gonna pop-out. I definitely recommened buying this game.

(You may experience what I call "Bio-depression" after you finish the game. Totally normal, don't fear. Just... wait it out.)

For the TL;DR people,

Great game. Buy it.

Don't worry, there's no rain, so it's not all that risky. There are giant monsters, like A ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ JELLYFISH! That... shoots balls at you. Hm, not that pleasant of an adventure, is it now?

BUT TO HELL WITH IT!

Get this game and have fun. c:

Amazing game. Worth every cent.

A simple, yet fantastic game.

Death is a common thing in this game so don't expect to beat it on your first try. You unlock new races, hats and companions as you progress through the game. Lots of biomes, monsters, items, and much more. Skills are a thing too, you can either build a pure skill tree or you can mix it up abit here and there.
