The Finals Review

- The Finals reviewed by Justin Koreis on PC, also available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
The Finals does a great job standing out from the competitive shooter crowd thanks to its fast-paced action, excellent environmental destruction, and gameshow-meets-squad shooter vibes. The way flying through the battlefield with a grappling hook or hulk-smashing through buildings mixes with its strict, objective-based modes is a breath of fresh air. It’s a concern that there are only two of those modes total right now, and it definitely feels like both in-game balance and the overall reward economy need some adjustments. But those are small critiques relative to the outrageous fun and breathtaking spectacle of buildings crumbling around you. - เกม
You know the game is fun when you’re ok with losing because you just had the most cinematic experience ever
People keep saying this and it's correct.
You just described Battlefield
Especially when everyone scored once and it becomes anyone game
Nah not when you lose because your team mates are morons 😂
Untill you start playing ranked and get demolished by chesee tactics, bad teammates, sometimes cheaters
A lot of people are saying this and it’s 100% true. What makes this game SO fun is that even when you lose its still a great time.
Big true tbh.
It's the same reason people never shut up about TitanFall 2: Badassery is a part of the game's core, so winning and losing is secondary to that.
Not to mention I’ve had some of the most hilarious deaths. Like buildings collapsing on me to then quickly followed up by getting flash banged multiple times, and then die to throwing knives. 😂
It isnt.
The Finals & Lethal Company burrying down CoD MW3 & Warzone hype is the most beautiful thing that i've ever seen
Yeah cos sales will reflect that… Cod is still king on console
Sure, if you count CoD going from 2nd to 3rd most played game on steam the most beautiful thing you've ever seen.
COD players are so sensitive 😂
MW3 has been in sale THREE times, with almost 50% off, and it launched LAST MONTH! You love to see it.
@TheGamersPerspective Lethal Company is $10 and The Finals is free. Sales are irrelevant with these facts
Everything about this game has felt satisfying and just overall fun, the shooting, the visuals, the destruction, the 3v3v3v3 concept, even losing doesn’t feel like losing
the bracket style ranked is great too. makes ranked feel sort of like apex in the sense that you don't need to win it all to rank up, just making it to the next round counts for something.
So 1 month later u still play this game, still super fun?
Don’t forget the soundtrack. Somehow my friends play this game w the music muted and to me the music is a big part of the experience
Haven’t been interested in multiplayer for a few years now, but the mere fact that this game was developed by ex-DICE devs definitely makes me wanna give it a whirl.
wicked fun
At this point what game studio wasn’t made by Ex- something? Given the rate at which gaming companies layoff staff said staff just move around like lost sheep
@@tatienouorest3358 Only a handful. Most of the experienced and talented devs have left the industry altogether due to the stress and office abuse (mostly during the pandemic). The game dev vets that exist today in the industry have only survived by creating their own studio or joined a studio created by their ex-coworkers. Embark studios is one of a few that have devs that made AAA games for decades, and have the lucky opportunity to know make their own way. The Finals is a massive success and it's going to help them finish building their flagship title, Arc Raiders.
As much as their has been massive layoffs during and after the pandemic in every industry, the game industry suffered far more from entire teams leaving company voluntarily. This was due to massive groups of people waking up to the abusive and toxic nature of office work. The offices that supported WFH, have strived the best, as is for every industry that took advantage of WFH. Embark is a big believer in WFH and look at what they have accomplished, faster and more polished than any of the biggest AAA studios have ever conceived of.
The game really feels like Bad Company 2 and Mirror's Edge had a child that doesn't take himself seriously. Love it.
This is where all the talented people went after they left DICE and let EA make a $hit show of a game 2042 was
Playing heavy and reducing a 6 story building to nothing while confusing opponents will never get old
The feeling of owning the point on top of that high rise, then suddenly realizing it's already coming down NEVER stops being amazing.
@@PSIChrisAs a fan of Battlefield Bad Company 2, I approve of this comment!
been playing all week and not once has my team not been filled after losing someone. usually took less than a minute
Same. Maybe the devs already addressed it.
It doesn't fill in tournaments, it does in modes like bank it though.
This is literally the most fun I've had playing an FPS game probably since the original Overwatch. If they can consistently release new maps and a couple more modes I'll be playing for a long time.
Best game of 2023
Same. But it is unplayable for solo players. Especislpy since there is not a feature when you can find a squad before joining a game
THIS!! 👆👆👆 I keep telling people how fun this game is ever since Overwatch started dropping quality in 2018
Literally not figuratively? That's literally so literal.
this game being free to play is insane
It's their test bed for their flagship game, Arc Raiders.
They should make a mobile and switch port too
@@BoysinBlue-zn5dbfor mobile, it's possible but switch??? Nah
@@faustus_tatacher9035 maybe switch 2 when that comes out
Not really. It would die fast if it wasn’t.
This game deserves a 9 at least. It is a 10 for me anyway.
Did you catch wind of Gabe's HNYFV50 New Year's bash? It's a game-changer
Interesting scam.
Bought likes to make the comment more visible.
Links towards a fake Valve TH-cam channel with a very low subscriber count.
Video on that channel is a very cheap fake video of Gabe newell. Completely out of sync.
TH-cam really makes it so easy to scam people.
Valve's HNYFV50 event is a gamer's dream come true. Dive into the celebration
Chat is this real
Scam.

It's the most fun I've had in a shooter since Battlefield Bad Company 2.
made by the same people too!
It's literally the same team that made BFBC2.
Yawn
@@grxy5924Still better than cod & fortnite😭
Idk about the whole players not being filled on your team it’s pretty common for me to see the empty slot get filled when someone leaves
In tournament play it just doesn’t happen unfortunately
Not for me
This is the first online shooter since Apex Legends that has hooked me again. Love it.
Me too🎉😅
The most refreshing game of 2023, NGL
If Team Fortress 2 and Bad Company 2 had a baby
This is the best analogy
Mixed with a dash of Monday Night Combat
2 of the 3 AI "voice actors" sound like the NFL Blitz 2002 announcer and the Pokemon Stadium 2 announcer. Once you realize it you can't unhear it.
It's the announcer from NBA Jam
@@DrezzyEFTP Tim Kritzrow, he was in both NBA Jam and NFL Blitz.
SOLUTION: turn off commentary
Tbf, those AI are trained by in-studio voice actors, so it's just a characteristic of his voice lol
@@gameranters He didnt say it was a bad thing
Not into FPS' at all but this looks fun as hell
You should try it regardless imo, nothing to lose in the end
Its free bro try it!
Its a Bad FPS
@@snakeofjungle It is the best comp FPS game to come out in the past few years.
@@snakeofjungle how ??
The game is amazing!
It is what Battlefield should be if it embraces destruction. Sorry BF, there is a new destruction king in the area and it’s much more than you ever was
Funny thing is that this made by ex DICE devs
*were
BF2042 is not a DICE BF game. It's made entirely of people new to the franchise. Ex-DICE devs went and made their own studio, Embark studios.
This plays literally nothing like BF
@@vindikaktus But the desctructions are, which was mentioned in the main comment
For those playing on controller you should really consider changing from the weapon wheel to all three utilities on the d-pad. It gives a more borderlands style control scheme that makes action far more survivable
Wdym ?
@@LolLol-el9zvinstead of having to press L1 or LT and use the stick to select a utility on a controller you use the d pad.
How u do that
@@Paradyze9800 settings > controller, first video game?
Agreed did that immediately
Was the use of litany at 4:34 intended to be an indictment about how many unexciting unlockables there are, or just a sub-optimal replacement for "variety"?
Hooked on this game!
Haven’t played any competitive fps multiplayer in quite sometime maybe since apex had dropped and this has definitely brought that back.
Such a breathe of fresh air!
Playing as a heavy and going around and smashing my guitar on people's heads is a 10/10 for me 😂
This is seriously one of the most fun games I’ve ever played, especially with friends! Highly recommended
Enjoyed this game in beta, And this game really has me hooked. It’s bad that I’m scared of the game not being a big hit and not being able to see what they do. For better or worse.
It is a big hit lol, don't worry. It's consistently been in the top 10 of concurrent players on Steam since its release.
Already a huge hit and Arc Raiders is going to be awesome.
It's literally one of the most popular games in the world right now so you don't need to worry
Need the whales to buy the microtansactions
It's in the top 10 on steam already just 2 weeks after it's release
@IGN Why are you still uploading reviews in 1080p? this game looks way better then it does in the review
Why are you here?
its probrably to upload it the Quickest
Why you guys still can't tell the difference between "then" and "than"?
@@SnowJesteror they'an
90% of everyone plays at 1080p, get over yourself.
It's like when Brink came out it had so much potential not to mention graphics look ahead of its time. The Finals looks fantastic
I’m here again!
The reason why people will not get tired easily of only 2 game modes is that for every game in The Finals the objective is located on a different location which gives new possibility in terms of tactics and playstyle in every map
No seriously people this game is greatttttt
The fact that this game is produced by the veteran DICE team made me wanted to play this game immediately
game is fun as hell needs more content ASAP!!!
For anyone like myself who's played it...
Are there times where you use a specific weapon (that aint melee coz they ironically feel balanced around the board) that sometimes it does a lot of damage (headshots or not) and the enemy's guns do little against you (Regardless of class), while other times that same weapon you used last time now does relatively less damage, while the enemy's does quick and unforgiving amounts in a short span of time? Its been like that for me.
Also, for anyone curious, If the game feels like BF Bad Company levels of fun, thats because it was actually developed by Embark Studios, which is made up by Ex-EA devs, specifically those who worked on Earlier BF titles, Titanfall, and yeah, even Apex.
How the hell do you grab canisters/revive statues etc on Xbox? It's driving me wild
Gabe's HNYFV50 is the buzz in the gaming world. Cheers to an amazing New Year
This is the destruction BF 2042 SHOULD'VE HAD!
bf 2042 was not made by DICE devs
@@evoliciousthat’s not what he said though…
Keep on fighting till the end, the last minute steal feel 👌
One of three best feelings in any game this year
this game looks awesome
The fact nobody noticed you in the comments section is pretty criminal
Oh hey it's that animation dude from TH-cam.
Agreed
The NFL Blitz guy on commentary made me smile! 😊
Is this The Final review or should we expect another review coming in the near future
It refreshing for sure
FYI the score an 8
Thanks for saving me 9 minutes of my time
should be 10
This game will be the next big thing
The next big thing to get canceled after a year.
@@BalkanGameslool
@@BalkanGames are you dumb?
Unless the Devs have a ton of money it won’t. They need to update this consistently.
@@KevinGonzalez-hs7so The class system will be the death of this game.
Innovative, fun, Overwatch 2016 vibes. Absolute breath of fresh air.
Let me change review to 9/10.
a king of the hill type would be amazing! call it Cash King have a random spawn point that the enemy has to capture and hold, but can be stolen although it would reset the timer if a team stole.
Ohh thats not bad…
That's literally just Quick Cash and Tournament modes without the Vault step.
That's just quick cash but worse, as a resetting timer would lead to neverending matches
How long this one will last ?
My only problem is no attachment options on ur gun or a secondary gun
Gabe and his HNYFV50 are the highlight of this New Year. Celebrate in style
Now does it look like overwatch store/game pass interface?
Im addicted. Please If youre gonna play be smart.
this game needs smart people 😆
Optimization wise it does quite well also.
Hey, did you catch Gabe's HNYFV50 New Year's Eve event? Sweet deals inside
I'm not normally a multiplayer type of gamer, but crashing down 2 floors with the vault (while trying to guard it) is pretty damn fun
You can experiment with all weapons and gadgets in the training mode, minor correction.
Does this game have thick SBMM?
Is it on ps4 or coming out ?
Blood and gore splattering all over the environment along with the amazing destruction would've cranked this game up to 10
I’ve wanted to get back into fornite but I’ve just lost so much time to all the new updates - this seems interesting and new
Can’t wait to see what they do with this game in the future
my question is whats that sweet dub step song playing in the video
The Finals soundtrack.
It’s just the OST of the game. It is amazing, and you should absolutely give it a listen
As a hardcore First person shooter fan. This is game is brilliant combination of Battlefield type destruction and COD style gameplay. Only problem is DPS(Damage per second) which very slowly. Nonetheless this game should be played by every FPS fan.
4:13 great clip to use when talking about the heavy’s “huge damage” and “high health pool” heavies are a problem when you know how to actually use them. Lights are way more of a nuisance
He said flamethrower, nade launcher, and sword are the best LMAO. Buddy must be playing a different game
There are so many moments where I'm outside my comfort zone and am wondering "what in the heck is going on?" While the ground is shifting underneath my feet.
Strategy is King. You don't have to be a sweat you just have to use big brain tactics. Which is a nice change from other competitive shooters.
Has potential for sure, needs major tweaks though.
5:50 Bro talks to a cat like it was a dog
this is it. the experience ive been waiting for.
Feels like the balance/matchmaking issues stated hete are outdated from my experience
Valve's HNYFV50 is the New Year's surprise we all needed. Dive into the festivities
my trio hasn’t had this much fun with a FPS in so long. could replay the same gamemodes back to back.
The gunplay in this game is underrated. It’s very smooth and rewarding, without holding your hand like CoD does. The revolver is a wildly skillful and punishing weapon that can delete people if you have the aim.
Don't forget about that🔥 soundtrack!
The bad company we've all been waiting for.
It needs some tweaks, but overall is a great game.
Definitely needs some more weapon and class balancing.
Notable mentions are the Lights being so easily clapped by everything, and also having long TTKs (especially against Heavies). Skill gap is quite high between the two.
Needs some more weapons, and id like to see weapon customization at some point, too.
More character customization would be great. Current character models are very awkward looking, especially the oddly rotund heavies.
Light Shotgun can two tap heavy. The TTK is near instant if you do it right.
taser deals with heavy no problem im light only since the beta and heavies weren't that much of a problem ever
THIS IS THE NEXT BIG THING
Uhh no
I'm addicted to it atm.
Sounds like you could just queue in for one of two modes but really it’s just better to be in the tournament mode with friends
Gabe's HNYFV50 is the New Year's surprise every gamer needs. Start the celebration now
As a pretty steady cod player I’d like to give this a try. I’m ready for something fresh
Gabe just dropped the HNYFV50 bomb. It's time for a gaming extravaganza this New Year
NEW FAVORITE VIDEO GAME.
Spreading the word - Gabe's HNYFV50 is the talk of the town. Happy New Year, everyone
This is what crackdowns 3 was supposed to be like
You can feel this game has those dice employees who made battlefield 1 behind it
Tried playing tonight but had some serious audio glitches that make the game unplayable
Haven’t experienced this on console
Always jump at the end of heavys Charge and Slam. It's in the name and he will do an AOE slam attack. Or you could join everyone else and use the mesh.
Gabe's HNYFV50 event is the highlight of the New Year. Start the gaming party now
If anyone’s wondering, it got an 8
Give it a 10 you cowards
Some other big FPS franchises with money would get their feelings hurt though.
yeah for real, they don’t tell you why they actually took off a whole 1/5th of the score they just kinda felt like giving it an 8
its not a 10/10 dude stop coping, its very fun sure, but there are some very glaring issues in the balance, and the matchmaking is pretty bad, as is the server stability. A 8 or 9/10 would be appropriate
@@bingusjack thanks for the suggestion, im gonna keep coping thanks
The finals just released a patch addressing everything you mentioned about the heavy. These devs want the game to succeed so we will be getting weekly updates
Sbmm?
You’re actually wrong about the team fill. When my teammates quit my team gets refilled almost instantly and then we win the match 😂👏
I win like 70% of refilled team matches lol. It works REALLY well. Not at all like you described with being solo. That has never happened to me at all.
IGN: wait, we want to give it a low rating but what does everyone else think first so we can choose the popular opinion.
For those that’s currently playing, how is the matchmaking experience? Is it as brutal as COD as far as having manipulative, strict SBMM/EOMM or does it let you enjoy playing casually?
there are times when a match does feel lost, but those are quite rare and often if you and your teammates play your cards right, can even more often be overcome without going maximum try hard meta loadouts.
there does seem to be some kinda effort to match people of similar skill level, but its quite relaxed at least in the casual modes, and you can play many days with out having matches that feel like forced loses.
There was a post about them changing it, havent played ranked yet but doesnt feel like COD where if you win a couple you know your losing the rest of the day
It really depends on if your teammates and opponents know what they’re doing. Every match is very unpredictable and fun
the game overall is fun, but there's one thing that is holding it back, its the cheaters, especially in Asia server, they need to do something about the anti cheat system or lock the China region before the game becomes Pubg 2.0
Just play console lol
It's universal crossplay. Console won't help.
It may not be meta, but using dash with the sword is super fun
This is giving Loadout vibes. Anyone remember that game ?
play since Closed Beta 1 march 2023, really fun game!
They rated it an 8. Deserves much more than that.
Fine 8.1 take it or leave it
a solid 9 imo
85 at best, because lacks of game mode is a serious issue.
@@gazoonman game isn't meant to be cod.. no TDM. Its cash out. Literally what nakes it unique
