We are really afraid, because Anthem could be last game we seen from BioWare. The game has big issues from both gameplay and performance aspects. The lack of content is biggest problem of it.

n his current state, Anthem is a nice action game in the beginning, that loses its momentum very fast due to strong flaws in game- and missiondesign, a slow RPG part, a weak story, uninspired mechanics and many technical issues. We currently don`t recommend a buy and only a round in the play first trial with EA or Origin Access after a potential healing in a couple of months.

Strong alone, stronger together, Anthem is a fantastic action-RPG experience for solo players or groups.

Anthem delivers a fairly solid experience, it has enjoyable elements but does also come across as rather generic.

Slick flying and gunplay collide with infuriating design choices throughout Anthem. But its biggest problem is a lack of soul – this is a cynical, committee-produced product bereft of any significant creative spark.

Anthem is a disappointment, there are a core design issues and technical issues that prevented the game from becoming a great game and made it just another looting game.

Anthem manages to offer up moments of fun, with occasionally chaotic action, Javelin gameplay variety and freeform traversal. But an overly convoluted and forgettable story, underwhelming RPG elements and outdated design choices make for a rough introduction to this brave new world.

I will probably fire up Anthem more than a few times again, if only to experience the joyous nature of plopping down a Colossus in the middle of a firefight and unfurling fiery, shelled death upon the landscape. It's a wonderful distraction. But unfortunately, Anthem doesn't look like anything more than that. I can't recommend it.

The world and setting of Anthem are amazing, the gameplay is super fun, but the mission structure and loot system let the game down.

Anthem is a game that didn't use a lot of its great potential. On one hand, some of the gameplay mechanics like flying is very well implemented and it also has very beautiful visuals, but on the other hand, the singleplayer and multiplayer aspects of the game contradict each other. Both are well implemented separately, but when they are put together, they just don't work well. The story also didn't come up to the expectations we have from BioWare. At all, Anthem in its current state is just simply a normal good game and nothing more.

Anthem struggles to deliver an engaging and ongoing experience to return and grind every day. Even if you manage to look above his flaws, like underwhelming loot design, mission structure and rigid combat, there is little joy to be found in this game.

Despite all the negative aspects, I don't close the door to the possibility that Anthem could be a good game in the future, because it has really good ideas and fun mechanics. I'm sure BioWare will do its best to make Anthem a success story. But one thing is certain and that is Bioware had released Anthem without learning from other examples like The Division and Destiny.

Perhaps it will get better, but whether the audience is still there when it does is questionable. Cool flying mechanics can only keep the interest of the masses for so long.

A good cooperative system, excellent gameplay and other qualities in the new world created by BioWare can not be ignored by the various errors that the game presents. Anthem seems limited and incomplete in its launch, but can receive several changes in the coming weeks and become a much better game in a few months. Today the game does not stand out among the various loot shooters already on the market, but maybe this can happen when its potential is fully achieved.

Bioware's new live service shooter, Anthem, may be off to a rough start, but the core gameplay is still fantastic, and there is definitely hope for the future.

Anthem has a chance to become a good game somewhere down the line, but right now it's a huge disappointment.

ANTHEM has the potential to become a great game after a while, only the content we get on the first day is game greatest weakness point, and with the completion of updates and provide a serious support plan will have a great future.

Despite the fact that the gameplay and the graphics are high quality and the game has its own share of fun and memorable moments, for now the game remains a unrealized potential. Anthem needs improvement in many departments: story, level design, boss fights, looting and more content in general. As of this piece, the game doesn't have much to entertain a gamer for hundreds of hours. There seems to be a long time schedule for supporting Anthem and evolving the game. It remains to be seen wether Bioware will fill the world with new contents and items, cause right now Anthem has the markings of a great shooter looter.

I will review the game again after a year of new content and patches, with the hope that Bioware still exists. And I can only hope that they return to do what they know best, and that is adventures with great characters and engaging stories.
