Hello everybody. I know there's a typo in my OP title.....I had typed something, then had second thoughts and tried to reword it, and I was thinking "I THINK this game is amazing...." but I guess my fingers missed the keys and I didn't notice it until after I had already posted.
So to all who read this thread: "I don't care what "Critics" or "Professional Reviewers" say about ANTHEM. I think this game is amazing and I'm really enjoying it." There. I said it.

Because that's what they call themselves, Lenny. I'm not being defensive, I'm just stating my opinion in stark contrast to all the hate-filled trashing and bashing that is posted online by people/gamers and entities (read: companies....ie IGN, Joystik, MetaCritic and whatever else is out there. Companies whose employees are paid to play and review and/or critique games in order to write and sell articles) and or sway public opinion about a given type of media (in this case, a game called ANTHEM)
But if you want to think that what I said is a jab, go to it. Feel free.

Just FYI, you can edit your title.
I'm glad you're enjoying the game. I am too.
I've avoided reviews for the most part, but the few I've seen have been fair. The reviewers seemed regretful they couldn't rate the game higher, but it had quite a few issues (still does in some cases) and they were right to point them out. I purposefully avoided reviews with titles that contained words like "DOOM" and "FAIL" since they were obviously aimed at a different audience than me.

I do that all the time, many times I change the sentence as i am typing it as my thoughts change and my fingers move at a different speed. How I miss it when I do a quick review, i don't know. Add in dyslexia and I'm happy when anyone understands my points.
I'm glad you like it. Reviewers aren't there to tell you what you will like just to give you information which you can use to make a more informed buying decision. With movie reviewers i almost always go for movies that they think suck, like i actively track them down. I know my tastes are that different. I still remember when a movie reviewer had given his review and the thumbnail picture represented that he thought the movie was so bad it offended him, Not that it had offensive content but that it offended him on a artistic level. I went and saw it and loved, I saw it a few times in theaters and then bought it. The long kiss good night, Gina Davis as a bad ass amnesiac assassin.(before the borne movies i think, well after the books which are nothing like the movies)

I'm having fun!
Been playing pretty hard for the last week and haven't had any problems playing solo. Have had a few disconnects when partied up with friends but no worse than any other online game I've played at release. Thats not saying I wouldn't mind seeing a couple really small changes here and there, or its bug free but the game has been pretty solid for me on the technical side.
Did my first GM1 mission this morning using matchmaking. Felt like I was level 1 running common weapons all over again. Can't wait for my Destiny buddies to get caught up.
Leveled up playing the Ranger but started playing with the other classes today and have to say they were all fun. Colossus especially. Actually thinking about making it my main. It is sooo muuchh fuunnn!

I agree with you, Anthem is ama
ERROR
Failed to retrieve Anthem live service data
(yesterday, 5 minutes into first contract)
When you can’t complete 3 contracts, one strongold and 15 minutes of freeplay without disconnects, crashes or bugs breaking your sessions (every day this week, at least once), it’s hard to enjoy any game even if it’s fun one. Anthem has the potential, but as of now its many issues outweigh all it does right.

Firstly, I'm genuinely glad you like the game, OP. I kinda envy you - as a fellow gamer, I love trying and buying new games and having fun playing them. I hope you'll enjoy Anthem for a long time to come. That said, don't be like the few people on this forum that seem to be in complete denial of Anthem's flaws. It's okay to like flawed games. I like some severely flawed games too, but I'm aware of their flaws and not denying them. I think that's a more realistic attitude than the Oslo Effect that some folks here appear to have going on... or whatever that thing with the Scandinavian town is being called. Their line of thought seems to be "Critics are terrible when they don't like what I like, but quite okay when they pick my favourite game as GOTY. Then I'll quote them often."

Many movie critics are literary critics, and all things literary are trained to snub their noses at plot in favour of character development and style. Whereas most people going to see a movie for entertainment purposes want to see a good plot and fun characters. Game reviewers are almost all amateur reviewers though, so there shouldn't be such a disconnect. Also what the hell did the Bourne movies do to those wonderful books!

The bunny has been drumming like its batteries are sponsored by EA ever since being switched on. Which is fine. The game can only get better in the best case. But ignoring the overall feedback won't make it go away.

Its nice to see the same people shoot down anyone saying anything positive about the game.
Yes, one can enjoy anthem despite its flaws and issues. its been quite a while since i had a game i couldn't wait play getting home from work etc. and Anthem is def that game for me at the moment.
So throw some salt over this way.

I stopped reading reviews like 4-5 years ago, as one working in the gaming industry, it saddens me how crappy they've become generally. Best way is to test/play the game by yourself, you are the one playing it, not some person somewhere. My biggest mistake in recent years was to believe some hype/reviews of Witcher 3 and it fell more flat than ever after ~13 hours... Enjoy Anthem, I know I do
