    Even if many of his points are reflective of my own, after watching him play, his opinion carries no weight. His highest char is the pk but he can't even use his free light after heavy. He never parries. Hell I don't think he even blocks. Not to mention he's literally invested into providing positive feedback. I do enjoy the game but my views actually seem to carry less weight when they are similar to this tool.

    I'd be incredibly surprised he's even got 10 hours of gameplay since closed beta

    Bit of misinformation right at the start were he says the guy lag-switched when he just got replaced by a bot.

    And? His low play time doesn't make the game any less broken. I don't think he is invested into positive feedback either, since he came right out of the gate with the negatives. In a 30min vid that's all most will watch anyway. If you wanna see reviewers paid to kiss Ubi ******** look no further than IGN, Gamespot, etc. Any reviewer giving the game more than a 7 in its broken state is a paid shill or worse.

    Pretty standard fare for Ubi these days. First a review embargo, then releasing broken crap to glowing reviews, and lackluster support after the initial cash grab.

    Returning to the point of playtime- I think the game gets worse the more I play. It was better when I was content with blindly swinging heavies and rarely even blocking. Now that my skill level is increasing towards blocks, parrys, counter breaks, deflects, etc the core flaws are becoming more glaring. It's not until you try playing with mechanics that require millisecond reactions that even the slightest connection issues become noticeable.

    I like the game, but let's be honest about it.

    i'd take back my comment if i could. i do maintain the belief that his limited exposure gives little weight to his opinion, however his points are valid and his opinions are much more likely to affect changes than my own, and in the end that's all that matters.

    Yup basically everything is on point... and i am (including closed and open beta) around reputation 12
    basically stopped playing for now since so many bugs and inbalances cause the game to be more frustrating then fun.
