For Honor, By CyNthios

15 hours in and I really am in love with this game, even with its technical flaws which you have most likely read in other reviews but this is what I think about the game itself.

The game is incredibly addicting with it's many modes and just generally things to do and learn, such as

Brilliant Campaign
This game has an really cool campaign I love how it's set out even with the idea of having to keep it similar to the whole multiplayer MOBA aspect to it, and I think they really pulled it off with using the easier (or the more straightforward) characters as the main protagonist for each factions story and then weaving in the other, more complicated characters as the other heroes in the story for you to also play as for a short time. Even with it's multiplayer driven game mechanics the gameplay works really well in the campaign in my opinion, like they even added collectibles in the campaign as well as some unlock-able features for the multiplayer side to the game. Great story that is not to in-depth and while the campaign is not quite long it's still definitely worth your time.

Multiplayer
The multiplayer modes in this game are quite enjoyable in has quite a variety such as a 4v4 game mode in which you capture points and work together to kill enemy players, quite similarly to common MOBA titles as well as the 1v1 mode which is incredibly different to the 4v4 mode or as it's called 'Dominion' as it puts you in a still small map to fight it out with one other player which can be quite intense and from my experience thus far enjoyable.

Progression
The game's progression system is interesting in terms of how you gain equipment from winning battles but you can also buy better equipment from packs which are bought with in game money which can be easily earned through playing the actual game. As you play with each character you gain experience and level up for each individual one and you are able to learn new skills and equip them with more aesthetic clothing and items to give them a bit of personality, However it you are not required to purchase characters in order to use them that is just to customise them which I only recently discovered which makes it easier to find which character works for you or which one you like best.

Tutorial/How to play
I really love the many options this game gives you to practice with bots and how much they encourage you to study each characters combos and abilities and then practice them as much as you want against a bot that will respawn straight away after you keep killing it, which I personally love and find incredibly useful for learning a characters basic combos and move structure.

Things I dislike
While brief there are some things that desperately need to be fixed such as the thing that everyone is complaining about, the peer to peer use rather than servers which hasn't impacted me as much but I can imagine would be infuriating for others and impractical for proper online gameplay as well as other connectivity issues. Another thing would have to be the online play, in particular the Dominion game mode. in which there is no penalty for abandoning the game which is frustrating for players who are playing competitively and want to win (obviously). The price for this game is a little bit unreasonable for its current state but hopefully that will change in future updates to the game.

TL;DR
+ Great campaign
+ Great game mechanics and gameplay
+ Fun and interesting characters
+ Beautiful maps and cinematic's
+ Fun multiplayer modes
+ Lots of things to learn with much help from tutorials and offline practice options
+ Really cool concept

- Expensive
- Peer to Peer hosting
- Some connection issues every now and then
- Difficult game for casual players to pick up (specifically multiplayer)

Final words
This game really is fun and I recommend people get it but the main issues with the game right now will most likely be fixed relatively soon (Hopefully anyway). I can't speak for everyone but I am having an absolute blast playing this game and I have only played 15 hours as of writing this.

I just started playing it and have not experienced any bugs at all the gameplay itself is great you require alot of planning and It is very strategic to build a prison in this game but once you get a basic prison running the game is very fun I love it It is definetley worth buying if you like this sort of game on th downside the tutorial was very brief It didn't explain enough so it really leaves you to play around with the game and discover things on your own. Also there isn't a story to this game it would be AMAZING if it did....... Overall It is a great facilitiy building game and is worth it

It wont open on my mac but overall the game itself (while i could still play it) is actually pretty cool i recommend it :)

Awesome just awesome
