- Jump Force couldve been something great. But with unappealing visuals and lack of dev support outside of DLC, it didn't live up to the legendary game it aimed to be. In this episode of RatedEm, we take a look at the history behind Jump Force to see what went wrong.

Honestly the only problem is the cac the ssj hairs whic the black parts are awesome
Jump Force was a disappointment.
@@danknhshinki73 True. Let's hope they make a better cross over game some time in the future
got a way to download it for pc?
Bro plz i bought this game wanna play with dlc characters but can't buy can I play with ur jump force account plz
me and my cousin loved playing this game. we didn’t really mind the glitches and the stiff animation, we just both had a fun time playing with different anime characters that we loved.
honestly that's all a game needs to be to someone to be good, it might be my age or tha tmy passion for games has significantly decreased over the last couple of years that games like this leave me empty inside but in my teenage years a game like that would have kept me and my brother glued to the screen for months.
Yeah the fighting is good
@@ZetsubouZolo that's all a game needs to do but people paid $60 for it so you can understand how cheated they felt
I still hop online occasionally and god are one shot true combos and annoying ass spammers common
Exactly, my uncle always says, "it's not about graphics, it's about the gameplay"
people are too serious and competitive these days. jump force just screams like a good time with friends who loves anime. and sometimes, that's all you need.
This is the same case as the Gear 5 Luffy currently, they all only wants some epic animated/serious stuff instead of a normal cartoonist, vibe thing
The competitive fanbase is the one that keeps games alive. CSGO/LOL/Street fighter...etc is kept alive by the competitive players. It is a FIGHTING game after all. People will want to beat other players and show that they are better. Just normal human nature.
Aside from fighting games being kept alive by comp play.
Jump force was awesome I'm concept but the execution was awful. The graphics story multi-player balance all the core pillars of the game were a complete joke.
This dosent mean you can't enjoy the game that's a completely subjective thing but you have to understand jump force as a video game that needed to make money was a abject failure.
I hope this dosent discourage them in the future and they take everything they've learned to make a truly wonderful crossover game we can all enjoy for a long time.
@@noobistrapped7097 I dont know about manga but in anime they clearly stated that in every fight Luffy gives his all.
@@noobistrapped7097 I remember in Water7 Nami said that Luffy is always serious about fight cause she was worried about his duel with Usopp.
From a logical standpoint it makes sense that they made all the character models more 3D realistic looking as trying to blend every anime’s individual art and animation style would be hard
Yeah, but they could have made them look not so hideous.
I agree. All characters still look really cool and the fact that you can finally control your favorite anime character is more meaningful than having similar art style to the anime itself
But it's just the characters in their original art styles but with greasy hotdog skin.
@@papashizzle3622 No, clapping at an IP you recognize isn't "meaningful".
I was playing the jump force story one time and my brother came in the room and started reading the cutscene. He changed the entire context of the fight from whatever they were actually talking about to Toguro wanting drugs from Yusuke
My main problem was it was such a huge downgrade from J stars.
J stars was far from balanced and had a lot of room to grow into a sequel but for every step forward that jump force took, it took 5 steps back.
Firstly it plays like a Dragonball game. Yugi shouldn't be instant transmitting behind you to spike you during a combo, that's a Dragonball thing. J stars did a great job of making every character feel right to their series with different energy mechanics and preferred ranges, etc.
The roster was a huge downgrade. It has more characters than J stars but far fewer series represented. 10% of the roster shouldn't come from Naruto and then give them more characters as dlc. I found plenty of series I'd never heard of in j stars to try out. Jump force thought piccolo was a better pick than a character from another series that people love.
They made it 3v3 and pulled back on co-op mechanics. I have friends that don't like PvP fighting games, they loved coop bot games in j stars but despite being 3v3 this time, that's not an option anymore. The 3v3 was pointless anyway. In a traditional fighter like skull girls or MvC, multiple characters served as a sort of combo breaker. Once you got comboed to death, you'd get another character drop in to take your turn back. In jump force they have the same health bar. Swapping is purely just because you want to
Downgrade?? The only downgrade was the story.... tf lmao
@@blickman5090 nah the gameplay has every character act like a carbon copy of Goku. Yugi has no business teleporting behind you to smash you into the ground. There's way less depth in exchange for big flashy effects. In j stars you can have your second player converge on one enemy or split up. You can play one person forward and have one player zone to protect the lower health player. In jump force you can switch between 3 characters but they share a healthbar so it doesn't even matter.
Jump force decides to cut entire series to put in more Dragonball, one piece and Naruto characters so the roster sucks. Why would you take biscuit instead of a kankichi or medaka? J stars represent shonen jump better with fewer characters.
Jump force literally only has flashy effects going for it. It's all show and no substance
I found it hilarious that Yugi would teleport like Naruto or Goku to slam All Might into the ground
Bro wtf 💀
@@michaelm8529 lol no not every character had the same playstyle as Goku, I can assure you The Kenshin characters played very differently from Goku as did Kaiba, and of course they all have teleporting because I can guarantee that if they didn't and you just gave that to DBZ characters to be "true" to the respective series. no one would stand a chance against a good player using a DBZ character.
@@selfloathingweekly yea that was stupid i'll agree
This game deserves better.
Rip Jumpforce, cool game but didn't last long.
I wish they made an actual 2d fighting game with a roster like this
Fr
Like a Jump Force FighterZ.
there is a 2d version and its one of the best anime games i have played, just like the first reply said "mugen jump force" has all of the famous anime characters and is really addicting, u can play it for hours, its not very hardware demanding (storage size is super big tho) and the graphics are 2d sprites that look awesome.
Jump Ultimate Stars on the DS was based.
Agreed
There's mugen on pc and android
I loved this game so much, I kept it to be a family heirloom.
I think opinions of this game varies depending on whether or not you play among friends. I've played this game since release and I can't even tell you how to get to story mode. It has a very forgiving learning curve and really enjoyable playing with friends. Admittedly, I don't do a lot of online play so I couldn't relate to any of the gripes people had with this game. I love it though.
same, have had it for ages and played it allot when i get friends over, earlier today i realised for the first time that i am missing 3 characters, and that i can unlock them by doing some team mission stuff, games like this are best enjoyed with friends on the couch anyway ;)
I still play jump force rn and never have trouble finding a online match
i played earlier today with a friend of mine who visits often, we'r playing this maybe 2-4 times each week since its timing based and not combo based, love it! :D
My updated upload defaults didn’t save I guess, so if you want to check out my twitter or 2nd channel, see the description for my Fortnite Documentary video until I can change them over on this video. Sorry!
Have you played Battle Stadium D.O.N?
What happened? Bamco was too cheap to renew the licenses for the character usage and as a result the game was delisted and all DLC is gone forever from storefronts.
The graphics weren't bad at all
your video was so good, i'm surprised you only have 800 subs
This game is a classic you really can pull off touch of death combos if you know what your doing 🙌
Facts I love it for the combos
how? they like have the invis tech after a certain amount of hits
@@flyghtmyleage6041 With normal hits that is. Specials can land as often as they want if they don't immediately stun the opponent. Mix that with your assist and the right character and you can pull of a lot of cool stuff.
@@italolxd3128aaah, so that’s what I was doing wrong
This game consumed the last 4 years of my life... It was well spent no regrets
My friend group and I at the time loved this game, it got people in the group who never watched anime interested and watched because of this game. It will forever hold a special place in my heart and in my memories gaming for hours at each others houses like we were kids (we were 18/19 years old at the time) going at it and arguing whos the best at the game. Good times fr.
Perfect TH-cam content short and to the point.
I hope they come out with a part 2 because it was a really good game
Jump force was ass
I love the fighting look, but the rest was nah
“Good game” 💀💀
No it wasn’t bro 😂
Thaaaaaank you, it was a good game just was not patched and held up well
I have this game on disc and still play it regularly because regardless of how bad the story is it is still one of the few shonen jump games that had such a variety and mixture of things that just can't be found anywhere else. Love the video, you did a great job of explaining it and kept me intrigued.
Please do you know how can i get it because i want to play it from longtime on my xbox but i cant get it 💔😭
@@user-ih2tr9il7o disc lil bro
@@user-ih2tr9il7o find disc. Or PC . No disc key probably here already
@@user-ih2tr9il7o go to g2a, thats the last place here in the west i know about that still sells it
I’m mad af I didn’t know this was happening or I would have bought more characters 😭
R.I.P Jump Force man, the game honestly had a really cool concept despite already doing it before. Honestly, I never really liked the whole 3-D style of the game, I also thought it looked weird. It would’ve been cool if they did the art style like DBFZ (Dragon Ball FighterZ) and it honestly would’ve done way better if they changed the art style and other things. Overall though, Jump Force was I guess an ok game with just a really cool concept. Btw great vid and commentary!
Thank you! I agree, a DBFZ artstyle wouldve been 10x better
@@RatedEm04oh my god it definitely would be. And I also think they should’ve cooked more with the story as a whole
Celshading
Why put "DBFZ" if you'll still put the whole name anyway? lmao
@@sanromanosqui because people probably won’t know what DBFZ is, idk
I think some of the issue was the fact that it focused on the big 4 anime mostly when there is a whole world full of fighting anime or anime where fighting happens but isnt a main part of the series.
What's the theme that's playing 4:17 i have heard it before a long time ago but can't seem to remember where
i absolutely loved this game and i loved playing it w my friends and was devistated when they announced the end
this game has so much complex combat to it than what it appears to be , me and my friends are masters in it , we still playing it to this day.
same, it got way more depth then you think at first glance
Other things people complained about is the lack of stages/arenas based on actual series and also lack of music.
Also on a personal note I think the combat could have been a bit better. I feel like some characters lack moves or a abilities.
If I had to guess why the game was shut down, my guess is that the character Dai, a character from Dragon Quest, is owned by Square Enix. And we all know how that company can be sometimes.
A new Jump game is inevitable, they love to release them around anniversaries. And guess what, Jump is turning 55 this year (in fact, as I write this comment, it is the exact date of the first Jump magazine issued for the first time)
Idc about Dai
Release a version without him lol
Nah they wouldn't shut the servers down just because of a character. Dead by Daylight had characters they lost license to (for whatever reason). Demigorgon, Steve and Nancy and the Stranger Things map were all simply taken out of the game (with the exception of those that already owned the characters), and the servers continued like normal.
The reason they most likely shut down the JP servers is because the player base was simply too low.
Jump Force wasn't a game I played a lot of, but was still a pretty good game In my opinion
Same Here
I think the reason I put it down and never played again was something with the battle system. I don’t remember what exactly though.
We need more introspective videos that keep it short and sweet. He gave us all the details we need in 5 min lol.
Honestly I really liked this game, it was unique and it had a large amount of character variety.
I didn't really play it online though since I wasn't all the great in it but still I did very much enjoy the game and I've played it a little over 30 hours or so.
I loved this game I feel like they could do a updated version with a bunch of more characters from more anime’s like demon slayer jujitsu KAISEN and more
I feel they just dropped the ball with the execution, i remember literally nothing of the story its that forgetable which is ironic for having some of the greatest stories of all time in it
5 minutes, a new record for an in depth video on literally anything.
Just went back and played this on switch a few months back it was pretty interesting at best 7 out of ten would've helped if they included the dub voice actors from their respected animes the ideas are pretty cool wouldn't mind seeing this get another chance in the future 😊😊
Hey I’m I’m just a person who got the game and I’m getting tmmr but can you still play this with friends? Online? Cuz my friend said he’ll get it to if he can play with me online
From my knowledge, the only way to play multiplayer is locally.
Yes
JoJo isn't owned by Warner Bros., it's owned by Shueisha, and the manga is produced by Araki's personal manga studio; Lucky Land Co.
Warner Bros. owns the distribution rights to the JoJo anime and also helps with production, but Shueisha is the one who decides whether or not to greenlight a new anime.
A 2D jump force fighting game made by arc system works would be peak.
Jump force is a starting point! If they put in the effort n shit and actually do the right stuff and keep up with the game it can be something! I hope they make a new game with similar ideas, but better execution!
True
Please do you know how i can get it or just play it for little time on xbox because i want to try play it from longtime but i cant get it 😢💔😭
The game isn’t bad, it’s the players the abuse the exploits. The exploits shouldn’t be there in the first place, but I still play it with my homies and it’s fun.
My biggest issue with it was how the characters played the same besides their specials
its mega casual
Personally, the graphics of this game didn't bother me very much. I can even say I liked them. But the character faces were static.
There's literally no eyebrow movement and hardly any blinking. Hardly any hair physics either. It gave the characters a mascot costume vibe.
So the semi-realism was contradicted by the little detail in the animation.
I wanted a jump force part 2 with no guard break cheese no r3 no grab ult with skins
Never played Jump Forces, but seeing this brings me back to J Stars man. The memories.
I can hear Gut's theme around 4:20 onward. A man of culture I believe. This game was super fun to play with my friends and I never had any cons for it myself. We loved it
i hate to be that person but ive never read or seen berserk and i just really like that song
song name?
@@RatedEm04
@@Shyolite 4 Gatsu
@@RatedEm04 Worse betrayal than the eclipse chapter
the glitches and stiff animation was fine but my issue with the game is that they nerfed combo potential like vanilla asta was crazy with mad combo routes
I'll say it again. There should be a Musou game set in the jump force universe. There are already 2 fist of the north star and 4 one piece musou games, simular stages appear in warriors orochi 3, and it would be really cool.
Beyond the terrible graphics and super limited gameplay with trash balancing, I think the thing that killed it for me was the character roster. It was SO heavily skewed towards the big name series, wasted slots on absolute nobody's, and locked all the most hyped characters behind DLC paywalls. Obviously it was never going to keep everyone happy and I get why all of that was done: branding, history, and money; but wow did that ruin it for me
It was a great game, I loved the 3D graphics
theres another underrated youtuber right here
I honestly loved this game so much I'm so sad that it's gone
people kept cursing, and they get what they wanted
If you bought the game before it left you keep the game
@@MangaGuy654 But sadly, no more DLC purchasable
@@lostlamb91 I managed to buy all dlc before it got taken down
Please how many characters do I get once I get the Game ? Since it's not purchaseable
We need a better Shonen Jump crossover game.
I just found a physical copy of the game is there anyway to get the dlc characters in it or no?
This has GREAT potential. It just needs a little bit more work. I've only played it once but I've always wondered why it hasn't gotten big yet..
True
Jump force was dope. The graphics could have been way better no doubt, but the game itself was fun as hell
i actually enjoyed jump force i thought the graphics were kinda mid as you said but i really enjoyed the multiplayer
the same combos ended up being used but it was fun finding a way to get around them
@@justempestI just loved playing it with my friends because we don’t know much combos so it ends up being my favourite by far.
I Agree
Broooo. I quit playing for a while and they removed it from the market. Since they removed it.. I couldn't get Yoroichi. My heart can't take the sadness. I still play when I feel the fighting itch.
nice video dude
Can you help me out with someone real quick? I recently redownloaded Jump Force after it got shut down, and I'm on Playstation and the store says all the DLC is free to download, but I can't download them, any advice?
You can't download the DLC because the servers are shut down, there's nothing to download from. The DLC doesn't exist anymore unless some modder ripped the DLC from discs and put it on pc
I plan on getting this game when I get a PS4 on the first of December along with a cheap TV to play it on
POV: you find out about jump force in 2023 and it looks really fun
ikr
Sadly unless you're on PC, all DLC is gone forever from digital storefronts
@@selfloathingweekly If your on pc then you can get the full game for free. except you can't play multiplayer
really how to downloa it?@@spleensplonsin
Honestly, I love jump force a lot and just bought a physical copy for my ps5, but the download keeps getting stuck at about 80 percent and it just fails. No idea what to do
To me this game was amazing I honestly loved it so much from fighting to visuals to customization everything was awesome
bro forgot about the most insane loading screens between every cutscene or fight
I’m going to be honest with you , they make a jump force now it’ll bang .
Demon slayer , mha , black clover , demon king of misfit, JJK, chainsaw man . A lot of players and anime lovers will love it .
I also absolutely loved the CAS system . I could actually be a sword user which was mental . Use sword attacks , sword supers . It was amazing . But I can see them giving us a new jump force and it’ll bang
MHA was in the game. You had 4 MHA characters and 3 were DLC. Black clover was in the game but you only had Asta. Either way all of these animes have characters that deserved to be in the game. Its such a shame that you had only Asta from black clover...What a missed opportunity.
This was mine and my nephews favorite game to play together because it had all my childhood favorites and he just thought they looked cool!
"here lies Jump force, may it forever rest in pieces"
J'y joue encore sur ps5. Car fan de jouer avec le personnage de city Hunter.
Dommage qu'ils aient pas été créatives sur les graphismes .
I was lucky enough to buy this game and all the dlc right before the shutdown, and I do not regret it.
The was actually really good and you can still play online rn
The amount of time I put into this I've probably fought everyone who has ever played this game. I cannot wait for the next addition
I play on PC and graphics are literally the only thing I won’t complain about. Art style maybe. But graphics nah you buggin
My guy said jumpforce 20 times in the first minute just in case we forgot what we were watching
how much is the game going for rn? might wanna sell my disc
Nice of you adding Gut's Theme
Nice of you putting Kaz as your pfp. Based asf.
I was only wondering about jump force yesterday
Great video
Me n my friends still till this day play this game all the time, the mechanics are just so good
lack of important characters....like who cares to use Kaguya or Renji?
I feel like if they went into a different direction with the character models and made some adjustments with the gameplay it wouldn’t been perfect but I still liked it
Yeah this was a good time. Graphics were terrible but my buddy and I who I met playing online ranked in jump force actually grinded to top 100, and I also created an endless special move combo with no light or heavy attacks that could 100-death a life bar. I still believe to this day that was the reason for the white blinking combo breaker patch cuz the way it was set up you could string any variation of the sm combo as long one or two of the moves landed. Best part was it started with an unblockable. Sad it got patched tho
I really hate that the characters dont blink or move their eyes. Makes them look like lifeless dolls
I love this game..but...After beating the gsme is it posible ti re play the story mode ? I have tried and dont seems posible unlease deleting. All the dsts from the. Gsme something i dont want. To do
A more minor thing that annoyed me was that characters dont have alternative outfits. Especially Kurapika and Aizen
btw its still playable when you crack the game. it isnt online but it is something i guess
I know there is no online at least not anymore but do they still update cause i cant even beat training on easy anymore
no more updates
I still have the disc , wish I have gotten a couple of dlc's when I had the chance 😢
I genuinely don't see any problem with the models. Although on some characters it makes them look like action figures with how glossy they can get. Wish they toned the characters a tiny bit better toward the ninja storm cartoonish look while keeping it's own unique style.
I hated how you got punished for doing good combos, as you gain awakening as you take damage, so if you combo they get ult 💀
I had everyone over my house playing on my ps4 at the time on this game ! that was my sophomore year of high school.
Bro the berserk music in the background 😂
We need an anime game similar to db xenoverse, like not just 1v1 with 4 abilites and 2 types of combos, J-star was good even tho the combat was so basic but for me and some people I know we enjoyed J-stars more the jump force
I never heard of this game before i really like the gameplay and graphics.the way how the characters fight is interesting
i still have my copy on disk but when now i go see it on the psn store i don't see it at all anymore just mainly the dlc stuff
The game was delisted from digital storefronts as well as all DLC
Wen I found out they were shutting down servers and that even DLC you already purchased would be impossible to re-download, I just went ahead and wiped the game off my save data, cloud included. I knew the game was gonna be dead from that point on, so there was no reason to keep it around.
The fighting was good and thats all that really matters to me
Yes the story was pretty bad and the models were a bit odd but you gotta admit the fighting is really fun, i still play it now and then
