It's free on PS+ right now and it is 200 times better than this spamfest of a game.
You can build your own fighting style and combos from I think more than 300 different moves. The way the attacks flow into one another is spectacular. Once you get the hang of it, you won't be able to stop 😃 I know I can't.
I also know I'm not supposed to promote other games here, but you deserve a proper fighting game. For honor will do nothing but decrease your lifespan with unnecessary frustration.
Also, it's free, so what's to lose?
Oh you mean that game that was supposed to "kill For Honor". A huge portion of the community including some prominent Youtubers flocked to Absolver when it first came out and then they dropped it barely even 2 months afterwards because it turned out to be a very empty and shallow game with no real depth.
That's cool that it's free for whoever is interested. Hopefully they've improved it somewhat since its launch state.
I bought it when it released, the controls are clunky, it feels like its a button masher, even though I know from reading up on it that it isn't.
Also the hockey masks on every single character and cartoon like graphics didn't win any points with me. It's free though, go figure... game must be doing well... lol
The fact that it's free on PS+ says nothing about the game's quality. Even Xcom 2 and Just Cause 3 were free at some point. Also it's nowhere near empty right now thanks to it being free right now.
I like it a lot. Sure it's been my first couple of hours with it, so I don't know what to expect in the long run, but from what I've experienced so far the progression is pretty awesome. The fact you can build your own "deck" of attacks is really really cool and means that every non NPC encounter is very unique to the last one. I feel a lot "cooler" (i know how that sounds) when beating up other people in that game and losing also feels very fair as well. The stance system and the selfmade combos are super cool IMO.
I don't really mind the style of it. I don't play games for the looks, but the gameplay, maybe that's just me?
For me, it definitely killed for honor... Well for honor killed itself and absolver is just the last nail in the coffin. FOR ME!
