Played only solo.

Mediocre at best. This is how would B:AK played if Ubisoft did it. Villain cases are fun, MR. Freeze is as usual annoying bossfight. Combat gets pretty repetetive, enemies as well. Ninjas are giant pain in the ass even worse then Talons.

Main cases require you do do some basically 80% of the side activities, followed by 1-2 main missions in exclusive areas. Has some materialy you might need to grind if you want nice sets.

6/10.

Worth Full price? hell no. I paid 15 USD for it, at that price I guess its fine.

Hell yes. I am writing this review after 74hours.. I started 3 characters 1st Samurai - mostly wandering around the world, claering dungeons, finding secrets and NPCs beaten 1st castle boss with spirits and summon (Goxxxx), all this in 25 hours, Decided to try mage just for fun, currently its my highest level character (level67) Beaten first 2 major bosses, few tree guardians etc. Its fun, also I explored in other parts of the world and went into Academy other way, beaten Rexxxxx. Then decided to have PROPER dark souls experience with Vagabond - just shield, sword, incantations and no summons, no spirits.

Technically I am stuck in early game with 3 characters, but I enjoy every minute of it! This game is the best game I have played in years. It is a GOAT.

EDIT: Finished the game on Normal within 6 hours.

Game is quite good, it was developed by 6-9 people, you can definitely feel it, but it is still great Indie level of game. Story is quite interesting, gameplay is fun, game ends before you get bored. Try the demo and if you like that you will like the full game. Some elements in game felt bit unfinished (see below).

Combat is good and swift, dodge mechanic feels very natural it does use some DMC/Bayonetta elements, and sometimes camera is clunky and every time your enemy goes off screen you lose lock on, but so far it was minor inconvinience, You can chain combos, switch weapon on the run to do combos. If you like the demo, you would like final game.



If you want to know how does combat/gameplay feel:
Take speed of nier combat
Sword switch similar to DMC, + Nero arm
And now put these 2 elements in X-Men origins wolverine quality of game. Thats what you can expect, nice mechanics but not polished to the level of DMC5/Bayonetta.

Game is sort of a crossover between Nier and DMC/Bayonetta.

Pros:
+each boss is unique, there is a lot of them
+weaponswitch for impressive combos
+story
+dodge mechanism
+interesting enemies
+no need to grind, you can find plenty of crystals by fighting and if you want to get more crystals you can press time capsule and all enemies will respawn - Ideally in the "maze" sections.

Cons:
-no new game plus/post game content (like arenas with bosses or replay a level)
-You cannot max out "parts" as I was expecting or I must have missed 10 cores
-for some reason when you max healing you can store up to 200 energy, but container still replenish only 100 points (not 100%). Kinda sucks when you die at boss and can only recover 50% of health recovery nearby or backtrack to other energy box.
-from mid game you end up using only 2 weapons out of all 6 (to be fair 2 basically are upgraded version of original swords
-parry mechanic on Claymore is somehow late and clumsy, hard to time properly on regular mobs.
-camera is to close for my liking most of the time, sometimes its super annoying as you canot see ♥♥♥♥, specially against balls throwing offscreen beams at youo
-lock-on enemies is lost if the enemy goes offscreen (minor annoyance),
-forwarding time is not utilized in the game or required for progress. I never had to forward time to replenish swords. The lowest I got was to 8 Claymore charges, when fighing only robotic enemies with it. So there is no need to save on time capsules. Basically it is better to use Time manipulation to get new respawns when you are in the maze sections or when you cleared multiple spawns and need to return back. You can get better drops and grind crystals.
-I have died like 5 times in this game; 3 times because of camera, 2 times because I was rushing boss.

Still fun game and worth the 30% of AAA game pricetag.

Hell yes! Full story requires 3 playthroughs
1. Playthrough as 2B (Ending A)
2. Playthough as 9S (same storyline from other side - shorter) (Ending B)
3. Different storyline, unlock TRUE endings (Ending C,D,E)

Take your time, finish this fullstory Combat is fun, story and characters are top notch. Awesome piece of art, great soundtrack on top..

I totally forgot I have not finished this game! It is awesome, the narrative is great, gameplay is fun, probably one of the best Indie roguelike games

Tl;dr if you like adventure games and bought it in a solid deal sub 5 USD, yeah enjoy the ride. There is no reason to play 2nd time, because even though you will see a lot of the time:

You will see a lot of time:
*This action will have consequences*

No it will not, or rather very cosmetic impacts here and there, it does NOT block any story option in dialogue... no impact on ending(s). Sometimes you can ask extra question and thats it.

Great game, Somewhere between BL1 and BL2. BL2 is better in all aspects, but Pre-Sequel is fun as well. Few memorable moments and most importantly it features handsome Jack :D

Most of the negative reviews were due to bugfest at launch. Game is good, my 2nd favourite after B:AK, game features the most boss encounters, whole story is just a single night. Bruce has some emotional moments, nice plot twist. This game delivers. Its size is comparable to B:AA, it is not as big as B:AC, but it is super fun.

9/10

Great DLC, on of the best ever made., Great character and story interesting plot (& twists), gameplay also very good. Dificulty went is set way higher than base game, better utilize bombs if you did not in base game, frosty one helps with bosses quite a lot.

10/10

45hours in AC oddyssey - feelings kinda "meh"
45 MINUTES in Witcher 3-, Wild hunt appears, minibossfight, the atmosphere, everyething. GOTY.

10/10 would recommend to play this game.
