About

Enter the chaos of a raging war as a bold knight, brutal viking, or mysterious samurai, three of the greatest legendary warriors. For Honor is a fast-paced, competitive experience mixing skill, strategy, and team play with visceral melee combat. The Art of Battle, For Honor’s innovative control system, puts you in total control of your heroes, each with distinct skills and weapons, as you fight for land, glory, and honor. As a skilled warrior on an intense believable battleground, you annihilate all soldiers, archers, and opposing heroes who stand in your way.

    At its core, For Honor is a smart multiplayer game, one of the best multiplayer games to focus on melee combat, and loads of fun in its own right. But its issues are hard to ignore. For Honor has big production values and great combat, but a myriad of issues - server stability being chief among them - prevent it from being a classic.

    For Honor brings many new things to the table, its combat most of all. I have no doubt that this is something that other games will try to copy in the future, and that’s something to look forward to. For Honor has other things going for it as well, including its customization options, story campaign, and metagame. Still, there are aspects of the game that fail to not only raise the bar but even come close to the bar.

    I hope people will throw this review back at me later and say For Honor just needed a few tweaks to achieve greatness. As it is, this is a game with a disposable single-player campaign, multiplayer matches that crash or disconnect as often as they complete, and a slew of fantastic mechanics that only rise to the surface in a single game mode out of a half-dozen.

    For Honor could’ve been one of the best games of this young calendar year; instead, it’s riddled with issues, particularly on the technical side, which hold it back. It might still bounce back and become the game it has the potential to be thanks to its solid gameplay core—but if you were looking for something to play right now, I’d tell you to take a wait-and-see approach with For Honor in hopes the bugs, in particular the connectivity ones, end up getting worked out.

    For Honor is a unique game with an outstanding combat system. The problems it faces are its release window (I mean look at the games currently out or on the horizon!) and the dedication it requires. Casual players need not apply, as you will be slaughtered endlessly on the battlefield. I feel like For Honor will get a smaller, but highly dedicated fan base as it goes on, but for those looking for an approachable experience will likely fall on their own blade.

    The story was ok but the combat is a quick to learn hard to master concept. The amount of times getting my ass kicked from the AI because the mechanics were hard for me to remember and time the right way. Also the graphics I swear there are times whenever there’s close ups to the characters faces, I see Ps1 polygon graphics in one area on the face.

    the good: -the graphics -the insane skillcap -the gameplay (complexe and dynamic) -a well balanced game -a lot of gamemodes -the variety of the games (thanks to the huge roaster and that each player has a different play style) -the campaign -you can train/play with bots all you want the bad: -the community is toxic (that's a fact) -the naration of the campaign is forgetable -0.7 for the issues mentioned above
