Customers are saying

Customers appreciate Anthem's enjoyable core gameplay, positive flight mechanics, and the open-world exploration. However, some feel the game is hampered by a short story, insufficient content post-campaign, and technical issues such as bugs and lengthy loading times. The loot system also received criticism. While many found the price reasonable, especially on sale, the overall experience is considered to have significant untapped potential.

    Really enjoying my time with this game. Seems a little light on content it if you score on the cheap and have a buddy to jam it with it’s been fun. I hope they continue to support it but you will definitely get $15-$20 worth out of it. The steel is really nice, happy it came with mine.

    Despite its flaws, I loved just messing around with the demo. Couldn't pass this up for a mere $8 on clearance. Rumor is BioWare will be overhauling it in the near future. Low risk cost of entry should the upgrade be free. If they release a new version altogether, oh well.

    The gameplay is dang fine, it is fluid, the content however is extremely lacking. Playing through the campaign is a blast, but not fun a second time, and the end game is terrible.

    This game had a rough start when it launched but most of the issues have been fixed. If you go in just ready to have fun in the world without much expectations, it is a fun game. You can fly around the areas and do small missions which usually involve shooting down bad guys.

    This game handles and controls well. It's very gratifying to pilot your javelin. The lore is deep, but it doesn't do a great job of highlighting it all the time. The end game is so-so.

    From what I had heard, this game’s launch was rough. I bought it some time later at a fraction and figured I could fly around, and maybe play a campaign; I wasn’t too worried about multiplayer. Boy was I wrong. I tried to play for a few hours and it was just way too difficult to go it alone, or maybe it just wasn’t as fun with no one else. If you can pick up this game for $5 and want to fly around a bit, I’d recommend it. If you’re looking for a AAA title with replay-ability, you’re better off looking elsewhere or maybe trying it on EA’s online monthly game service.

    Not sure why so many people hate this game. I think it is decent. The graphics during the missions are up to par. The downside is the out of suit experience they really undershot here. For $20 how can you complain. I hope this helps if anyone is one the fence.

    I spent 90$ on a useless, poorly made game that was never ready to be release to the public. I regret every penny I spent on this underperforming game that has extraordinary long loading times, constant glitches, crashes and little to no content and stale generic weaponry. Your better off playing Destiny 1 vanilla and being more satisfied

    Game was on sale. Excellent price. Steel book case was free with the purchase sweetened the deal. Game character controls take some getting used to, but the graphics are very good.

    It feels like a Diablo shooter with flying mechanics. It does make sense that a futuristic space suit should fly and not just double jump like so many games. The character dialogue is so KOTOR and ME. Kinda weird, but makes you learn about the world you are playing in. I'm not sure I'll have a real opinion until I get to end game where drops matter more. I think this game will be dependent on how that looks for longevity. You definitely feel more powerful as you level.

    It's not as bad as I thought but I have not played much due to other games. I know I picked the more tank class and could not float to advance till my team warped me to the next location. I would recommend due to price.

    This is a great game and enjoyable to play. I have always dreamed of being iron Man and finally am able to do so. However, this game had major issues with crashing or bugged strongholds. Using an Xbox one x, I will load into free play, normally 60 seconds of loading, the game will crash and reset. Also, the loading screens, I think you sit on loading screens more than actually playing the game. Each time you do anything, there is a loading screen. I would recommend it because it is beautiful looking game, but you have to be patient.

    For my initial review, I have to say, it's not bad. Gameplay is a bit repetitive and the load time is ridiculous. It is a good change of pace from games I have been playing. Hoping that new contents will improve the game.

    Loving the game play. Solid mechanics. Story is lacking and holding interest into any character is somewhat of a struggle.
