Thankfully a lot of the stuff you can do solo so it's not too bad. In many ways it's a lot like Mass Effect's MP in that you can play and do it by yourself or with others. The only thing you do have to do with others is freeplay but it's mainly used only for resource gathering and helping levelling up your pilot and Javelin but even there you can pretty much fly in one direction and not see anyone else. Unless you want to of course
You have to do strongholds in groups as well.
Yeah but Srtongholds are optional for the most part you don't actually have to do them .Which is why I never mentioned it.

Now that the 'oh shiny' has warn off I'm really underwhelmed by Anthem. Shouldn't have bought it but by the time I'm done and uninstall it I'll have gotten my monies worth out of it. I can't say that about DA:I or ME:A as I've never finished ether as both ended up boring me to tears.

Before the game was released I said I wouldn't buy it, and I'm going to stick to that. There's just so many better games that are worth the money. Still finishing up Odessey and just started a new playthrough of Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Days Gone is also right around the corner and so is Sekiro, Anno 1800, and world war Z. Too many things to play, passing up Anthem isn't a big loss.

I voted "I've yet to buy it." Cuz I haven't, but I know better than to ever say never...
If/when they ever get the major issues resolved and we see how this supposedly upcoming content pans out, I might jump in.
Meanwhile, there are plenty of other games I've yet to play - including some I've already bought.

I got this game as a way to pass the time until DA4 arrives. So far it has served its purpose. It even managed to get me interested in what comes next. We shall see how long it holds that interest. Hehe to be honest I did the same something to do while I wait for DA4,MEA2 or what ever perks my interest

Not yet. Was going to give them 1 month after release and re-evaluate, but things aren’t trending that great so far, so might wait and see another month.
Also won’t be paying for it directly, will likely get it as bundle when I upgrade my PC. So more or less getting it for free.

Anthem is more fun I've had with a game in a long, long time. I've played some recently that were really good (Odessey, Origins mostly) but at some point they got tiresome and repetitive. For some reason I just haven't felt that way with Anthem and I'm at least 100 hours into it (I think, unless there's some way I can check to see for sure). This game was such a pleasant surprise for me, I didnt think I'd really like it that much. Very glad I gave it a chance.

"I've yet to buy Anthem" implies that I plan to. This is not the case.
I will consider purchasing Anthem should Bioware fix the game AND it is offered at a steep discount. I doubt the former will ever occur, but I can't say I'll never buy Anthem.

My kid played a bit on my account and loved it so much I bought another copy so I don't have to share.
The game has its faults, but I'm enjoying it a lot and I'm not sorry I bought it twice.

Only when it's in the bargain bin. By then, the game will be worthy of my $20.

Bought it, still playing and enjoying the game. I am somewhere around 130 hours played and just started to level another pilot ... and it somewhat surprised me, how much I enjoy leveling and playing through the story again

I might buy it at a huge discount after its numerous bugs and core design flaws are fixed and there's no other game that catches my interest at that time. But I probably won't.
During the public demo I was bored with it after just a few hours and found myself thinking of which other game I'd rather play instead, and I actually like the looter shooter genre. Too many loading screens, long loading times, bland loot, dumb enemies and broken game mechanics among other things make this one a chore to play.
4/10, would dodge that bullet again.

I got Anthem for free with a graphics card upgrade, one that I really needed, and have been planing to do for about a year. When I saw that Nvidia was giving Anthem as a bundle with their RTX line-up, "two birds with one stone", I thought myself.
I personally wanted to avoid giving EA any of my money whenever possible. I am not sure how much money out of the graphics card pricetag went to EA. But since the bundle is over, and the graphics card price on the stores is still the same, I can kinda say that I got Anthem for free. Also, Nvidia is another greedy company, for sure, but still somewhat less greedy than EA.
Anyway, enough on that matter.
I played the game for 60 hours (over the course of a week and a half), and I am pretty disappointed with it. My score for it is 4/10, and more details on that is on the Anthem User Review Thread.
I haven't played the game anymore for two weeks, since there is literally nothing to be done there. I moved to other games, there are much better ones out there to be played.
I cannot comment about getting my money's back since I got it as a bundle . Would I recommend Anthem to anyone, at full pricetag? Perhaps. If you play on a mid or high-end PC with a SSD, have friends who for some reason also play, don't mind brainless repetition, don't have particularly high standards for games and don't have anything better to do with your money and with your time, perhaps. For anyone else who does not fit this description, then most likely no.

bought it, played it, didn't regret it (so I obviously have low standards ) yes, it does have lots of issues and I am quite sure not all of those issues will be addressed. I think that I mostly like it for what it could have been (always kind of mumbling to myself while playing: "damn, what great [wasted] potential") and view it as kind of a filler while waiting for ME5/DA4 - a fun filler mind you, after +100 hours, I still love the flying, gameplay, graphics and some of the characters...

What are these other games? I recommend you checking Gamespot, IGN, Giant Bomb, or any other major reviewing outlet. There are quite a few 2019 games far superior to Anthem, as well as newer content to older games which are better in quality as well.
