Lol. I wasn't expecting that response. I'm sure its just me, but it just amazes me how much of a turn-off the FPS perspective is for people. *shrugs* Personally, if it's an RPG, I want to see what my character is wearing. Your character is wearing a Javelin.

Not a fan of first person too. I like seeing my character being awesome, not just her hands. It make the CC unuseful. And I don't feel immersed one bit. You'll still see your character in 3rd person cutscenes. Just in time to ask myself "who is this again..? Oh, yeah, my own character." too little, if you ask me.

Well I've had a bit of time to mull over the PAX panel and I've come to the conclusion that Anthem is not for me. Do I hate the game? No, it's not me. And that's a fine decision to have and you shouldn't be admonished for it. I completely agree. I reserve admonishment for reiterating the same, "This is not for me, validate my negative decision!!!" statement three times or more. Or in all caps. Or in threads intended for people who look forward to the game. Or who use the cover of, "I'm giving constructive criticism and preventing this from becoming an echo chamber," when all they are really doing is reiterating their subjective dislike for the game. I've got nothing against and no jibes for people who decide it's not for them and move on. Or for people who have actual constructive criticism with an open mind.

My impression is that it's basically akin to Skyrim and Fallouts radiant quest system, where even after the main campaign is over, you can go to one of the Agents at Fort Tarsis and do a mission for them. The mission will randomly select an objective for you to complete, what faction you'll have to deal with, and where the mission will take place on the map. also known as "the single worst thing to happen to Bethesda games" I dunno, monetized mods comes pretty close. Though I suppose Valve takes part of the blame for that as well.

So far Anthem doesn't look like a game I would enjoy, but it's funny that after I built myself a new rig last week I am actually thinking of trying out the game. Just to play it with all settings on Ultra and be happy I can pull it off. Then probably will complain it's pretty, but boring, haha. Looking forward to the system requirements.

Sorry,but I have zero tolerance of clickbait/sky is falling/doom and gloom "essays" that Youtube industry. I prefer to make my own impressions rather than listen to a 15 minute video a Youtuber screeches hoe a game is bad and scary and you should hate it.

I watched many videos similar to this one. Far as I'm concerned, they provide no value or insights. They're just nothing more than moneitized videos provided to profit the cynical and closed mindset the so-called gaming consumers put themselves in (God, I hate the word consumers) Give me 30-50 min videos or long written essays that go deep into analyzing video games, their design philosophies, or narrative themes any day of the week

Catch 22. If I have to watch a video to know that I disagree with it, the perpetrator of the video is rewarded for every view they get, even if you thumbs down it and rage in the comment section about how wrong it is. Actually, posting a comment helps increase the video's interest rank, so again it's a Catch 22. But what you can do is look at the video's page without watching the vid, and that one was posted in December of 2017. It's old, old nonsense. I've also watched enough Cleanprincegaming to know what kind of nonsense drivel he posts, so I don't need to give him any more ad money.

Best way to approach Anthem is to accept the co-op part and ignore the story part. Play solo for solo fans and hope one's firepower and enemy health is a function of the number of players. I like ME3MP. But, then, I know what I'm getting into to. In other words, there is no story... just shoot and kill.
My World Your Story is an attempt to appease the RPG fans. The simple binary choice approach makes for no "agonizing" choices, as someone else put it. Still, proof is eating the pudding, which is why a post launch buy decision is best for the skeptics, imo.

This right here! However I digress, I did pre-order but only because I have massive faith in the Co-Op. Honestly I feel the best intention for most people will be to treat this game almost like a destiny/division. The lore can be found by exploring (beautiful concept 10/10) but the best thing to do will be to blow through the "Critical Path" so that you can focus on the end game content. Unless Bioware and EA find common ground and bring out a story that rivals anything before Andromeda (Sorry guys) focus will most likely be placed on the Multiplayer aspect.. which looks to be amazing anyway.

This is more speculation on my end, but I do think - once Anthem releases - that one of the more common critiques of the game is that it's multiplayer/solo-play dynamic is a jack-of-all-trades. Good in a number of respects, but not of master of either. People looking at Anthem from an RPG-lens will say that the story isn't as developed as they would like, while those who look at it from a Multiplayer Co-op experience will say that the game lacks common MMO features; ex. Player Hub, in-game text chat, etc.

Maybe that’s a really really good thing.. by keeping the playing field even and being a “master of none” / jack of all trades the Devs later down the line can focus their content updates and DLC on what the people want. Let’s be honest the community is divided on this game.. once it releases and REAL opinions and critiques come out, Bioware has something to focus on for the game. Until then it’s just talk cause they know they won’t be able to please everyone.

While Anthem only has 4 players on the map at any given time, I would think that text chat helps for people in clans and whatnot.
