  1. Not gonna lie man I bought the game after this glowing review and it wasn’t really talked about enough that if you buy this game in its current state you won’t be able to play it. The estimations online say there are over 300,000 people waiting in the queue. I feel like this should’ve been a bigger part of the review here. While it’s temporary and will be fixed this isn’t a game that should be recommended as of right now because you literally can’t play it.

  2. One thing you missed was that the warbonds never expire! Even if/when they add more for super credits, you have all the time in the world to unlock them at your own pace. Take a break and come back 6 months later? all that stuff is waiting for you. Feels like Monster Hunter in that way: Content is free, just gotta get back into it to see whats new.

  3. With the success of Palworld now Hell Divers 2, this CLEARLY shows small companies are who you bet your money on. HA you think GameFreak makes quality games? EA? Yeah we saw glitch and bug city with the most recent Pokemon game and Battlefield game. Just because you have 500k employees, doesn’t mean shit if your product is rushed ass. Were the battlefield servers constantly slammed? Yeah no. Hi-Fi Rush and Baldur’s Gate 3 set the standard, that if you’re up & coming company, bet on it because gamers will flock to good games not cheap, cash grabs. If this is the year of indies and small companies, fuck yes 🫡
    The rich money grubbing CEOs can cry on their gold yachts, while incredible games are being made and being played. Hopefully it’s time they realize lazy copy pasta of the same games every year that COD started doing, doesn’t work anymore! 😑
    Sit down and put some soul in Pokemon again, Battfleild again, sports game again. A popular game sells, a good game sells forever

  4. So between BG3, Lethal Company, and Helldivers 2… are we finally, at long last, seeing the return of games that are just FUN? That don't see their players as nothing more than wallets?

  5. I love that mentioned fact that almost every mechanic in the game is made in such a way, that it won’t be perfectly smooth and easy to use. This is such a smart design! It makes it very stressful but also fun… in a stressful way 😀

  6. It feels most like a mashup of Destiny, The Division and dare I say Anthem (the EA fail)… Add a few more planets, enemy classes, a giant boss or raid and you have solid game for less than the price 2-3 skins on Diablo 4.

  7. Such a great game, made with fun in mind without egregious monetization crippling the experience.

    My only real issue with the game is that i can't play.. the player count just keeps going up and the servers are at full capacity but hopefully that'll be sorted soon and can coop with randoms again because my friends apparently hate freedom and liberty and would rather see Super Earth destroyed than come join me on the front line, defending democracy! 😮‍💨
