For Honor is one of the newest and of course one of the most interesting experiences at the current time, a game that'd easily claim to have the strongest and the most realistic Melee-weapon based combat system but sadly, the issues that we were hoping to be resolved by the time the final version was released were not yet fixed and at this time, it'd much better for you to wait for the updates in order to have a much more fixed and solid experience either from the game or from the servers because as you see, For Honor has completely the potential to entertain you with it's massive battles for hours.

Unusual and for the most part unique hybrid of action and fighting games. And it's freshness is one of the main reasons why it stays fun for a long time. Unfortunately, disconnects and lags during the multiplayer matches are not that uncommon.

For Honor offered a redefined Melee Combat with a detailed and realistic animations , skill tree options also offers far more content to unlock for months, in addition to environment design diversity and character selection Variety each one has unique play style and tactics, but the game lacking few game modes which gives you the feeling of repetitive content not to mention the weak story line.

So far For Honor is one of the Best Multiplayer game in 2017 and I can Even call the best on this genre. Unfortunately For Honor Couldn't, at the moment, Provide a Steady Connections & Matchmaking Performance, Which is the Most important part of a Multiplayer-Focused Game but Ubisoft Prove us with Rainbow Six Siege that support his games strongly post-launch, so we can hope for fixing the correct issue.

When it's working, For Honor is a satisfying multiplayer game with an excellent combat system and interesting playable characters. While ubisoft's medieval fighting game builds a solid foundation, issues such as weak story campaign, poor balance and unstable servers, bring dishonor upon for honor.

If somebody came up to me on the street and told me about this plot to a game, I'd be a bit skeptical, as I'm sure many of you were when you first heard about For Honor. Up until the point of actually playing the game, nothing seemed too special about the new release from Ubisoft. For Honor seemed to strike a perfect balance of story, gameplay, longevity, and sheer fun to create a solid game that I'm sure people will be playing for a while. Fantastic: For Honor is the fighting game for people who don't like fighting games.

I could have given For Honor a better score if it was only released with the multi-player mode but the single-player falls short of the mark. If you have time and patience to master the game, you may give For Honor a chance.

If you like movies like "Troy" or "Lord of the Rings" and always wanted to put yourself in the shoes of a hero and change the outcome of a war, For Honor can make that happen. Realistic and perfect combat system and other pros like good graphic make For Honor an enjoyable experience. The game has some cons but once you get used to them, you continue to enjoy the game.

The first few hours of For Honor can be slow and frustrating, specially if you are a newcomer to the fighting genre. But once you learn through its very deep and unique combat system, you'll definitely fall in love with it.

Even though For Honor's core combat is essentially an elaborate quick-time event sequence in disguise, the production values and novelty factor are high enough that there is still a good deal of fun to be had here.

Values such as honor, courage and strength perfectly exemplify the concept behind For Honor, another bold bet won by Ubisoft, thanks to an innovative combat system, as well as a rich and well-structured multiplayer mode. The lack of a more spectacular single-player campaign prevents it from being one of the first of 2017's true masterpieces.

For Honor takes some risks and creates a new property that I'd love to see more of in the future. Unfortunately, there is this impression that perhaps Ubisoft was not entirely confident in this first outing. The online modes are fun enough, but they can get grindy and their lack of depth begins to show after a time. This when coupled with the lack of dedicated servers leaves For Honor feeling somewhat incomplete, despite some beautiful environments and engaging combat.

For Honor is an ambitious IP that hit the blade right in the jugular, creating a beautiful new combat system, character in its various roles and factions, and an underlying amount of depth and customization that contributes to an engaging multiplayer experience with tons of replayability. If you've wondered what it's like to hold a 5 foot long sword, For Honor is going to be your best chance at feeling the intimacy of dueling with histories deadliest warriors.

For Honor has the best, most innovative and rewarding combat system we have seen in years. However, the whole experience is crippled by poorly designed game modes and progression schemes; a broken matchmaking system and online instability. It's best to avoid it for now and wait a few months until the developer can fix its problems.

A unique experience and very different from anything that Ubisoft had ever produced. It is most certainly a welcomed change of pace.

For Honor delivers accurate and unique gameplay, unlimited upgrade options for every character, variety in levels design and a multiplayer mode that depends on cooperation with teammates more than playing solo. However, the game suffers from a weak and disappointing story mode, overpowered abilities that some characters have, limited game modes, pay-to-win microtransactions, and various connection issues.

For Honor is enjoyable enough, but it feels more like a proof of concept than anything else. The core combat system is interesting, but everything built around it is awkward. When you're in the middle of a dramatic duel against another foe of the same skill level, the game shines. Anything beyond that, and the seams begin to show. It's a game that demands a high skill level for fun and success, and that can be enough to turn off someone. The game is also pretty light on content for the $60 price tag. If you've played the beta and enjoyed For Honor, you'll have a good time, but others may want to find a way to try it out before committing to a full purchase.

For Honor has quickly become my favourite online multiplayer game, and one that I’m certain will have me honing my skills, and my blade, for months to come.

There are lots of bad things that can be said for Ubisoft's newest idea, with the most annoying one being its poor single-player portion. For those looking for the best medieval-themed PvP melee fighting game, however, it just can't get any better than this. For Honor is not flawless, but it's the current King of the Hill.
