For Honor Review

So, For Honor with its ever growing popularity and its multiple sinks in sales. I wanted to talk about the game and the upcoming update. So, the game itself is very skill based around your heroes and every action you make. Now its combat system is system is simple. 3 directions to block you can parry with the right heavy timings, unblock-able are moves that needs to be dodged or parried. That's nearly it.

But the new update I really wanted to talk about. It will hurt the game so much. Its terrible new feat and score systems, I mean siege is awesome looking but will only the new heroes even be good at it? An entirely new faction? Great now your Knights vs Vikings vs Samurai is ruined. Also the new voice lines are terrible they ruin the memorable lines that made the characters like able.

Now I really like the game and delved countless hours into the game learning to ways to fight with new heroes but I like the game how it is but the new update is just going to hurt the game. Of course the room still needs to expand. If it doesn't there won't be enough growing content to attract new players or keep the old ones.

Of course the character imbalance is something to talk about. Raider, Shugoki, and lawbringer are terribly under powered and need to be fixed. When characters like Zerk, Shinobi, and Orochi are still out there being OP or generally above most heroes. Now the game needs to balance this out. They need to make weak heroes stronger and strong heroes weaker so every character has a fighting chance. Now for example a fight with two equal skilled players the fight will rely on luck. But characters shouldn't come into play. I mean if both of them are different heroes but ones stronger then the other then skill isn't important.

Also connectivity was a problem and still is. Some areas can't connect at certain times of the day. Lag is a massive problem for the community and also matchmaking. Low levels fighting near gods at the game is totally unfair and needs to be tinkered with more. Also if your going to add a new game-mode be sure the rewards are good enough to keep people playing. No one plays Tribute because reward to time is bad and its fun but Dominion has the best reward and the games last half as long. See balancing is one of the games biggest problems

Now there are still many things good about the game. Such as likable and diverse characters, challenge, and making your character look awesome. Fashion is better the functionality. The game is addictive and super fun and rage inducing. I would say its 7/10 Its really fun but balance is a problem.
