This game is overall a ton of fun. The gameplay is tons of fun, and the graphics are absolutely breathtaking. Playing this game in 4K UHD is a treat every time. The personalization is well done, but takes time to earn good gear.

I enjoy playing this game but there still are a lot of bugs that need to be worked out. My first night playing the game shut down 3 times.

Been having a lot of fun with this game, it still has a few bugs to fix and kind of glitchy but overall it's still a fun game, I'm sure with time it will all get fixed.

This game is pretty good and I got it cheap on a really nice sale. If you like flying around space in a cool mech suit, killing stuff, and got a couple bucks I’d recommended it.

It wasn't as bad as some of the hardcore gamers were making it out to be. I think it was an acceptable game to play as a beginner to moderate shoot, kill, level, repeat type game.

Game has a good core but has a long way to go. Great gameplay but needs more around it, also the loot is a lil lame atm.

The shooting is just as great as Mass Effect 3 and Mass Effect Andromeda along with the brilliant flying mechanic. It isn't without it's problems though as the long loading screens get old after a while.

Anthem is a huge mistep for bioware. Although there are positives like gameplay and flight, there are more negatives. Performance of this game is poor, lags often and sometimes crashes (this has been fixed with updates). The story is lackluster at best and doesn't provide the story telling that BioWare is known for. A dissapointment for the fans and developer.

A lot of the bugs and glitches present at release have been addressed. The game is fun for all of the reasons other reviewers have mentioned. The potential for greatness is still there. The biggest current hurdles for the game and its developers are fixing the loot system and impressing with the Cataclysm event. Depending on how that pans out, it could be the game's saving grace or the final nail in the coffin. I'm still holding onto hope. While the game at release was lacking the polish and depth we were promised and expecting, Anthem has great bones. There's still the possibility that they could turn it around. I would certainly say, "Give it a chance," at its current $20 price point.

This game is super fun. I’m having a great time so far. The shooting and weapons and skills all make you feel super cool. The flying is super rad as well.

The game is all over the place. Visually it’s amazing. When it’s on point it’s fun, but way to glitch and buggy.

Anthem is a fun game with a lot of potential. It’s visually stunning, Combat mechanics are solid, and the story is decent. Hopefully the game will Continue to prove with each update and DLC

At release this game is decent, but it really has the potential to be great. The fun factor is very high, but that wears off in time and there is currently not enough end game activities for a looter shooter. On top of that the high end loot system still needs work. If the developer makes some large free updates and really supports this game I would come back to it, because it does have a high fun factor with the flying and javelin suit combat.

A beautiful game with loads of potential. How this is leveraged moving forward remains to be seen and will determine if it is a great success, or disappointment.
Reserved, but hopeful.

The game does feel like it will have some legs. Don't believe all the hate - the combat is addictive and the loot is just enough. If you liked Destiny, then this is right up your alley.

Beautiful game and very fun. After awhile it gets repetitive. They are redoing the entire game for free to make it less repetitive so it may go up.

This game is fun and has tons of action in it. Some of the missions get a little repetitive but the main story will keep you hooked. The dialog in the Fort can be a bit boring.

The game is actually decent, it just gets boring really fast. Once you get past the movement and the flying which this game does the best I've ever seen in a game, well it's kind of a let down. I did enjoy it but I paid full price and that I don't enjoy for what I got. If you see it for anything lower than $15 definitely get it just to experience that flying lol
