While the game itself has great visuals and decent gameplay, I find it hard to recommend due to the performance issues. Fun game, just sad to see another bad pc port(at least for now). Hope Respawn does address this soon.

"Missing señorita" in this game is much better than the original. Much more helpful and not as whiney.

After playing on both ps5 and pc, thought I'd leave a review though I'm terrible with reviews....Anyways the game involves two protagonists, Yuito and Kasane with Yuito being the main protagonist as you can play either two first though I suggest starting with Yuito. Their stories are more or less the same with some of the fights being exclusive to Yuito or Kasane.

Basically the story involves the two protagonists being recruited for a monster elimination squad called the Others Suppression Force as the Others are generally the monsters of the game. Story goes from being recruited to taking on the governments involved in the game as your choosing sides depending on which character you play to stopping the main antagonist(Both stories have the same antagonists, just different perspectives). Story was a bit of a WTF for me. While story wasn't bad, I felt there was alot of room for improvement. I give it a 3.75/5.

Now for the gameplay, the combat gets kinda stale as I was mostly clicking left and right mouse buttons while using abilities called SAS which involves using Psycho-kinetic abilities that your allies provide with each ally providing their own unique abilities. As for the abilities, to make them better you will need to deepen the bond with your allies by giving them gifts that only they will like and you can get these gifts by exchanging monster and environmental parts for them and the exchange shop will show which allies will like which gifts with rating from no heart, to a light red heart, to a full red heart(full red heart the highest). Not only that, you can also view these visual novel cutscenes to also deepen bonds with fellow OSF members which will be shown by a pink red clip hanging above the osf members. As for equipment, you will get plug-ins that boost your attack, health, and defense and you'll get weapons that you can upgrade to better ones or you can buy them if you have the money. You will also have a skill tree where you need to level up to get points to spend on the tree as these points spent will help make things easier for you in the game. When it comes to the combat, if you looked at gameplay footage of Astral Chain or have played the game yourself, you might think both games are similar in a sense. One of my biggest complaints is the lack of post-game content as all your stuck with after beating the game is some additional side quests that are ridiculously easy to do. I give the gameplay a 4.5/5 as I still enjoyed despite the combat and lack of post-game content. I might update this should Bandai choose to release post-game content.

Overall, I give the game a 4.2/5. I do think the combat could have been better, story writing could have improved, and the overall gameplay especially with the lack of post-game. Other than that, I do recommend the game as I enjoyed it myself.

I'll give it a 4.3 out of 5. This is basically an animated version of monster hunter as some would say as it's similar to mh in general, like you have a certain time limit to do missions, your targeting specific monsters, your basically hanging around in a hub while monster hunter world has another hub you can hang out at, you can go on expeditions, monsters being weak to specific elements. This is a decent game in general, though one issue I will point out are the controls as God Eater 3 doesn't explain that well on how to perform certain moves or abilities based on the controls set as when you go to control settings, not all are supposedly listed. Like with monster hunter world, you can craft weapons to have a certain element or just base damage as you please. Another comparison that I been reading and noticing is with Code Vein, as some are claiming that the God Eater 3 and Code Vein worlds are connected, though I ain't too sure with that....Lastly, customization is similar to Code Vein as well. One issue I do have with this game is that it can get repetitive fairly quickly and if you do decide to play this game all the way through, then I'd play it in small sessions and not big sessions. Given it's current price at the time of this edit(9/8/21), I do not see it being worth 60 bucks, maybe somewhere in the range of 15$-30$, but I still liked the game regardless. Overall, if you liked Monster Hunter World and Code Vein, then I recommend giving this game a go. Up to you players of course. If you do decide to buy the game, then I hope you will enjoy it! 4.3/5

I did enjoy this, but my god the soundtrack for this version I considered to be horrible. I miss the original soundtrack from the ps version....

I like this alot! Easily one of the best Non-Asia developed titles I played in a long time. Basically, this is a game revolving around a young girl named Aloy, who is trying to discover her identity and learn about the people from the past. Difficulties are very flexible as you can play from a leisurely style to a more challenging style whatever you prefer! Not a difficult game to learn as enemies meaning the humans and machines will have mechanics. You can play as a stealth, a melee, a ranged, or all 3 combined! You can charge at enemies or stealth, though be smart about!. My only downside to this game is replay value given that you can max out the skills in a single playthrough. Other than that, it's a solid 10/10 for me. Highly recommend. Am looking forward to the sequel when it releases despite it being a ps exclusive!

Fun?yes. Rage?yes. Solo friendly? Not really. Group friendly? Depends on who your with. Anyways, a solid and challenging. I'm generally a gamer that is not into challenges, but this game is an exception. Monsters get increasingly harder as you go from low to master rank. Do expect to get frustrated at times as I have raged quite a bit.....however once you have a proper build setup as I yet to have as I'm still learning at the time of this review and understand the monsters, then you probably can face roll the monsters.. one big issue I have with this game is the frequent dcs. You might dc alot like I have during a group hunt or you might not. If your looking to challenge yourself, then I do recommend this game.

The PcPort isn't that great, but still in a playable state if you got a good pc for it. If you running low fps, it is highly recommended that you download the far mod if you choose to buy the pc version(steam) of this game to help it run it better. Nice gameplay, decent graphics, some challenging fights especially the colosseum fights. Game can test you at how well your dodging enemy attacks. Story can be confusing, but collect archives or ask people that played this title about the story. Will definitely go for more playthroughs of this title. 9/10 for me.

Despite some bugs, I find the game to be enjoyable. Personally, I think that since the controversial launch, I see that there have been quite a bit of improvements. There are dailies, events, quests, all sorts of content to enjoy. Crafting is similar to fallout 4, you will literally have to scavenge for mats as in find junk like coffee pots for example and then scrap them to get materials. With this game, you'll really want to be prepared as in weapons and armor in good condition, food and drinks, healing items, and boosts if you choose to use boosts, but optional. If you ain't prepared when venturing around the map, do expect things to be challenging, maybe you'll die quite a bit as I have. You can get infected with a variety of diseases and they all have their owns effects such as draining your hunger bar meaning you prob will be starving real fast and need food for example. As for bugs, there are some bugs like respawn bugs and enemies not attacking even when you engage them in combat. 76 is not as buggy as back during the controversial launch months. You'll also want to be careful with perks you choose as they will relate to builds you choose. For example, I went w/ a shotgun and melee hybrid build. One issue I have most so far is that u can only exchange 150 scrips a day when scripping legendaries, you can get more through events and quests. Also, you have a limit of 1000 scripts, be careful and wise when getting the legendaries you want. Anyways, if you like survival games with challenges, then I do recommend this game. I give it a 7.5 out of 10 as I think that they still have alot of things to improve bugs especially, but I do think Bethesda seems to have improved things a bit since the launch.

Played for a few routes, gameplay from base game is alright, but limited and if you want to go further, buy the dlcs if u can work through bugs. Why I don't recommend? It's because of the limited gameplay plus having to buy dlcs to experience the game and have a big chunk of your wallet taken out, plus the bugs that the game has or still has as some say such as some key bindings not working for what they were intended for and not being able to change keys.
