I'm pretty sure if your game makes you finish the game twice to get to the end game and the end game is where the real fun begins then your game deserves a 7.
@@BlueLightningSky The game is fun from the start and you don't need to finish it twice to get to end game. Its just a few post game missions to unlock harder stuff.
I'm pretty sure not a single reviewer for this game even touched the endgame. The IGN reviewer only played with Gran/Djeeta for their review. I'm so tired of how bad gaming journalism is nowadays.
With that short main content and endgame repetition mission there's no reason to stick with the game aside from trying different character. 7 is fair score for gameplay alone, Heck, I'll give it more if we can bonding with other party aside combat and know their story. Tbh the game pretty dull for stuff outside combat.
This game is a 9 easy. It manages to pull off a combination of Genshin/Honkai+Monster Hunter with its own spin on all of it. Very good game with lots to grind for. Epic af boss fights.
this isn't a retelling of the story, it is a standalone story and your info about the characters seems pretty far off, the fates episodes give you a pretty clear retelling of each character’s story.
Having a total of 20 playable characters, all feeling very different, is an achievement in of itself. Yes, the shorter than advertised story & lack of exploration irks me a little. But this game will get free DLC updates and has no gacha mechanics of the sort. Coupled with the fact that Cygames has little experience making their GBF games like this, I say it deserves a higher score.
Definitely waited for a cast and game play like this for along time only ppl to come close was Manga Carta 2 "gameplay wise" & Infinite Discovery "characters wise"
Reviews should not be allowed unless the reviewer actually finishes all of the content. This games story portion is the tutorial, the real end game starts long after the credits roll.
Been following this game since 2018. Sad to see it wound up being just Anime Monster Hunter. Will still keep an open mind and try it out but this is definitely not what I wanted.
Try to play the actual game before making a review. You haven't played like 80% of the game that happens after story. It's like giving a review of a fighting game for the story.
Every character tries to speak their cool line MIDDLE OF THE FIGHT and it's so annoying. There are many songs from the base game and the UI is straight from gbf versus, only 10-14 hour of story and after that, everything you can do is grind like the web game. For me that's not my cup of tear and i can understand why you rate it 7/10
This feels like a review someone made when playing just the demo... It feels incomplete and missing the whole end game point since the campaign just serves as the introduction
@@jakemartinez6894 that is a great point but not in this case...

@@rogelionavarro188 Nineteen hours is not a small portion. A game’s entire campaign is not a small portion. Half the people in this comment section are nearly as bad as Starfield hyperfans… Don’t let opinion become bias; at the very least, don’t let bias get out of control.
@@jakemartinez6894 the best response. I’m genuinely interested in this game, but it’s amusing when fans argue an arbitrary number of hours are required before a game shows its true self. That’s not the ringing endorsement they think it is.
@@jakemartinez6894 While the argument is understandable, it doesn't work here. Games like Monster Hunter, God Eater and this shine because of how much depth is found after the campaign, which is more of an introduction to the game. New abilities, weapons, moves, characters, enemies, enemy variances, side quest and side stories unfold after the 15 hour mark. And as someone that played the game, I can tell you that the main campaign (taking me nearly 20 hours), when it comes to level design, enemy variety, bosses, depth and pacing is absolutely excellent. I do agree that the story is just okay, but it isn't trying to be story focus game anyways. So yeah, this is not Starfield all over again, that's not the case.
While i was able to beat the main story in 11 hours, at the same time it took me 161 hours to get 100% completion, its more akin to monster hunter and other more western style RPGs that focus more on gameplay, progression, mechanics, content and endgame, stop calling it a JRPG, not all Japanese RPGs with anime art styles are JRPGs
I'll never forget what GameSpot did to the Giant Bomb guys while they were employed there. Such a shame GameSpot is still open for business. And such a shame this channel was even recommended to me after all this time. Disgusting.
this is great level gamespot always rely on graphics without considering play this is the meaning of playing for me not just story telling movie like graphics
Sounds mediocre for those who do not care much for grinding "It gets good after you beat the game". I thought the combat was just OK in the demo. Kind of disappointing.
Not everyone plays after the credits roll. that is bad game design. give me the 90% INSIDE the story, end game content is okay as long as its just additional bonus content. not 90% of fun.
@@emeka490 monster hunter has mechanic and reward that make you create different build. That's why the repetition can be varied. Granblue ain't even close to monhun mechanic, this is picking up a varied character and grind it to max level kind of game, and guess what, the stat ain't even make difference beside in damage number. The only similarity to monhun is the way you pick the quest.

Deserves better than a 7
Clearly not for everyone. 7 isn't bad.

Isn't it just a monster hunter rip-off with a anime skin?
Much better than a 7
Game is fun but not nearly as fleshed out as other grind/loot games like monster hunter.
They reviewed like half of the game at best so I guess the real score is 14/10.
This is my current favorite game of the year. It's simple but amazing. Nothing unnecessary. Cant wait to see what content gets added.

Having a blast with this game. Wish other jrpgs were as ambitious as this one
Tales of arise? Monster hunter? Final fantasy? Yakuza?
@@lillotusplaysthose were exactly what I wanted to list, thank you!!
Uh the general idea I got was that this is pretty much the most safe and formulaic it gets when it comes to jrpgs. Surprised some find it ambitious
@@lillotusplays Tales of Arise was the worst Tales game, what you talking about?
@@lillotusplays I'm interested on why you didn't add Persona to the list
main story:7
end game: 10
exactly
We need more games with fantasy in the name.
This game has the best AI at making sure they don't get in your way but also the worst at helping you.
Will be buying this in a few months on sale along with rising

Lol, believe it or not, what you're actually chasing (and he didn't get) is S++, which has 5.

Been waiting on this game since 2020, I watched the anime back in 2017 and I thought it would make a great game
Sounds like someone rushed the game for a review, without actually engaging with the game's mechanics and offerings.
The game is a solid 8👌.
Barely watched the review but the comments seem to say I need to try this game..😅
Only 7/10?
I e been in lobe with this game its a simple story told well with awesome multiplayer on the backend.
Mindless button mashing?

7 is fair , I’d give it an 8 but 7-8 is a accurate rating imo

the entire game is only 20 lol

''review'' without even mentioning about hundreds of hours of endgame

easily ten times that, if you are getting all Bahamut weapons.
This Reviewer doesn’t understand the world. It’s easily a 9.
Oooooh this review got me salty only giving this game a 7 and acting like it’s average 😷
Well I guess this one's a skip
This one should be mobile game. In PC it looks like another generic jrpg
Unreliable review, finishing tutorial does not warrant a final score
This game is just too easy, needs to get patched
maybe i get it on sale, i could tell this game was not hard at all when the demo never showed anyone dying
Oh trust me it gets difficult end games once the enemies lvl are 100+. Comps will be needed on some bosses.
That's just early game content.
Terrible monster hunter knockoff. Not to mention it looks like a ps3 game.
19h you dont see endgame and give it a 7 what a joke
its way better then monster hunter
Lol if that were true you wouldn't need to bring up monster hunter. It's very shallow compared to mh.
Granblue sounds like Quran blue. Like there are different Qurans of colors...
