While I love the gameplay, the setting, the liberty, and most especially the Galactic War, I can no longer enjoy this game. This devs have gotten too greedy and out of touch with their players. They will purposefully ignore player feedback until they can make a warbond out of it. They'll happily take the money and praise for "listening to their consumers" when in actuality, if it wouldn't make them money, they'd leave the bugs in the game and call them features.

Examples Include:
Silencers:
Silencers were introduced with the Halo warbond. Players complained they didn't work-- that they would still make a loud sound when fired and get the enemy's attention, completely ruining their stealth gameplay. Arrowhead responeded by saying they thought it was fine the way it was. Then right when the Redacted Regiment warbond dropped (which had silenced weapons and other stealth items), they made silencers actually silence the guns.

Flames:
Flamethrowers and Napalm Barrages have been in the game for around 1.5 years now. Since they launched there were glaring issues with them. Enemies walked through fire like it was nothing and flamethrowers used to burn the user more than the enemies. People complained, Arrowhead ignored. Then they drop the Entrenched Division Warbond and suddenly flames work as they players have been asking for for months! But heaven forbid the Coyote clears hoards too fast! Before Entrenched came out, they nerfed flames even more and reworked how it behaves to preserve the "Grunt Fantasy".

Exo-Suits:
This is what cemented this as less of a coincidence and more of a pattern. Exosuits have been awesome up until they added the tank to the game. They nerfed the armor on the tank AND Exosuits to basically make them unplayable on bot maps. Players complained, Arrowhead ignored. Now they drop an Exosuit warbond, and wouldn't you know it, they're talking about buffing the armor to make them more viable!

They sit on problems the game has until it can make them a profit, and it's disgusting. All the previously mentioned issues wouldn't have required huge overhauls or anything. Just quick balance change/bug fixes that would take them a day to code AT MOST. They don't hesitate to nerf a weapon to be unfun to use 2 days after it goes live, but heaven forbid they listen to their players.

Piss off Arrowhead. I'll go play a game where the developers actually respect their players.

I just got sucked into a 3 hour play session today. I haven't opened the game since 0.4.6 and I gotta say that you guys have done an INCREDIBLE job with this game since! It was already intruiging and charming, but the way you guys fleshed out all the bones of the game and even added new characters and mechanics I wouldn't have begun to imagine is just amazing. Keep up the good work developers.

The fact that a game lets you manipulate timelines, past and parallel, in such a manner is honestly mind blowing and thrilling, I've played this game for a few hours and have already figured out some inter-dimensional strategies and how to protect myself from the same ones through time and space.

This game is definitely worth the buy for those who like chess and/or multiverse theory.

If I had to summarize how it FEELS to play this game in one sentence, it would be: "You may have me in check from 3 different timelines, but I was already 7 parallel universes ahead of you; YOU FOOL!!"

Absolutly phenomenal game! You could play To The Moon before this game, but it isn't required. However, I definitly reccomend playing Bird Story befroe playing it.

This game has done what no other form of media or even my break up last year was able to do: This game has moved me to tears. The story was so convincingly real even with the Sci-Fi technology and the hilariously ridiculous scenerios thanks to Dr. Niel. Every character, place, and every tiny detail has so much depth to it that it can entangle you in the story and emotions the narrative wants you to feel.

I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt this is a MUST PLAY GAME. Get ready for the feels! <3

Edit: Just played this again a year later, and I cried again. 20/10, I'll cry every time.

Early Access Review
For The King is an amazing virtual tabletop RPG game! Currently, there are 2 adventures you can go on:

-For The King, where you avenge the fallen king.
-Dungeon Crawl, where you find all 5 dungeons and clear them.

Both modes are absolutly enthralling with it's diverse enemies, and artistic polygonal style with beautiful shading. The combat and movement system in this game are phenomenal, even using a roll system to give the game a bit more life.

You can customize your characters all you want, so long as you get the gold from quest, dungeons, and other encounters.

With such a large variety of characters, enemies, weapons, armor, and more, what's not to love about this game?

I've played this game of the course of an entire year, and I'm still not tired of it. This is a great, ridiculous game to get. The community is loving, and loves to trade. Casual is amazing, and so is competitive. All around this game is great, with a lot to offer! Get it now! :D

I don't need to say why it's bad, everyone knows why by this point, and if you don't know, read the other reviews or go on reddit to see just how much we were lied to. This is just Spore the shotty prequal. Go buy Spore instead.

EDIT: This was my initial review at launch. A lot has changed since then and it's made the game actually enjoyable to play. Teh addition of bases, land vehicles, low flying, quests, better graphics, and more have really pulled this game up from a 0/10 to about a 7-8/10. Props to the devolping team.
