The game itself is ok-good. But the policy behind it is terrible. OW2 was supposed to be a PvE with PvP game. Then it was PvP with PvE soon. Now they canceled the reason why they made a part two in first place, the PvE mode and the reason why i bought it in the first place. I payed for the PvE mode and payed for the PvP mode twice instead.

This Game has a high frust factor for multible reasons. It is a F2P game, but i think it more as a Pay2Progress with some Pay2Win mechanics, just saw i thread on Reddid how one got his first T10 ship after 4(!) years of constantly playing the game. A huge part is locked behind a paywall and gambling (lootboxes) and some advantages are payed by real money. Skins and Flags (not the economic) give you extra stats and player power. The estetics are awsome, great looking grafic, high amount of details and good sound. You have 5 classes: Desdroyers (DD), Cruisers (CL/CA), Battleships (BB), submarines(SS) and aircraft carryer (CV). Now to the frust factors: 1. No respawn + high TTK: Frustrating when you are getting oneshottet. 2. Community is really toxic: especially if you are playing playing as SS or CV, even tho they are not they most anoying thing in the game. 3. The grind: this game is brutaliy grindheavy, especially if you are a F2P player, then you will spend months grinding 4. Pricepolicy: their pricing policy is bold and one of my biggest points. I never saw a game with such absurd high costs. Monthly 8,20€ to get double XP and credits and you still grind your a** off. Ships can cost between 40€ - 70€ and if you want an even ship now, it will go up to 250€. Flaggs and skins cost (with some eceptions) real money and are gone after one **** one one-shot. 5. Matchmaking: this can between 2 Tiers. Means you can face Ships that are 2 Tiers above yours and thats a huge difference and really frustrating. 6. Meta: Right now, from my experience, the meta looks like only two classes are in only one way playable: Sniper-BBs and ambush-DDs. Cruisers are just XP Pinatas, destroyers ambushes with a one-shot torp salvo while beeing stealth in front of you. BBs are just slow, chonky snipers in the background and flaming the CV for only existing. SS stay underwater somhere and get flamed for beeing in game and get oneshottet after beeing spottet. 7. Events: most events are very grind heavy and you still have to pay to take part

Here is my oppinion: Im very dissapointed by this game. It was a promising start of the game, but after a few minutes the game plot was predictable, the mechanic was boring and the game was hollow and boring. The start of the game is like "this game wont take you by the hand" yes, even worse. it gave me a rope i jsut had to follow until the end. if playes like a tube in a open world. The game is short, it took me 4 hours, but only because i had to start over three times in a row since the game has either a problem with saving or the game just resets itself on every game start. maybe 2 hours and you are done. The puzzles where all mediocore at best but more boring, maybe the targeted audience was kids. one puzzle was with jumpscare moments and the Plot dismanteled itself after the first few puzzles. The End was dissapointing predictable. (and weak) The only good thing i can say about this game it that it has some good approaches, nice landscape and it was for free on epic. 20€ is hefty overprized, this game plays more like a Demo of the Unreal Engine rather than a propper game.

The game is something between Meh and OK. F2P friendly, nice Graphics/Artwork and regual new content makes it fun for a game now and then. The biggest let down for me are Bugs, Metaplay and communication. Bugs appear on a dayli base and range from grafics glitches into others to cards wont work or you cant place them (even though i encountered gamebreaking bugs very rarely). Bugs stay in the game for very long until they get fixed e.g. Shurima came out 8 Months ago and Azirs voice lane is still cut during the lvl up animation. Communication means, i have the feeling they only hear positiv feedback and ignore negativ feedback/player suggestions, one reason i post my critic here. Imo the Report Side is not comfortable (i was not able to use it for a long time) and i dont like the big chatroom on discord, i feel ignored. There are a lot builds you can play but only for the Memes, not for winning. In ranked, you can see only flavor of the month, the Metagame is very strong in this one. Off-Meta builds are really not fun to play and the few Meta Builds change on every patch. Power Creep is a huge problem in LoR, every patch, the new Cards are way more powerfull then the "older ones", either by having way better Stats/cost ratio or have the same stats but really good keywords. The game makes no secret that it has its focus on fast games, thats why rush decks are Meta and lategame or control decks feel useless. E.g. Seamonsters needs you to throw 25 of your 40 cards away ,literally(!), to have theyr keyword work. The only reason i do sometimes recommend it to some die hard League fans is its because its F2P. EDIT: New expansion is out, tonns of skinns, new power creep no balancing.

Good things first: This Game is for free and runed smoothly with high fps and good response. Now for the rest: This game is for a big company with that hype really dissapointing. The graphics are more like "meh" and from the arround 20(including seconds) highly boring designed weapons, everyone just uses two. since the rest are trash. Speaking of trash, the weapon handling is just..disturbing. The skills are mostly just one blob of color of sightblock. Planting the bomb for 13 rounds is just strange and boring. This game could be a 8 year old MOD for CS:GO with gambled damage numbers.

I got this game for free, but still not worth it. You have no reason to play this game, sure at some point its ok to shoot a bit around but it feels like you dont have to. Its boring. No progress or reason to play more than a few rounds. The shooting feels akward, like the bullets behave strange, the hitboxes are strange wich results in a high ttk. (not a bad thing for me) Two shots in the chest does the same dmg as two shots in the head, 75 of 100. Some walls just crumble appart and some can stand all tank shots. Speaking of tanks, Horses can take more shots than a tank and the rider is magicaly immune to bulleds while riding. It is now a bit older, but still it feels like the devs released it, and start working on the next title. Of every Battlefields ive played it, this was the most unbalanced, 1 of 3 games is a stomp match where the best player of the one side would be one of the worst of the other side. The Matchmaking is terrible. I think it puts the team together by name or just random, no balance in MMR or even Level. i once had a game where my whole team was between level 5 and 20 and the enemy team everyonem was above level 50. (wich has nothing to say but the game results showed me otherwise) And still glitches, bugs and espesially cheaters are a common sight, battlefield and cheaters are always comming together and EA refuse to do something against it, even support it by making it nearly impossible to report cheaters. This game is arround 5 years old and still players asking ingame how to report cheaters. its good the vehicles are not that overpowered (if they get focues). On the tech side, it still somehow manages to mess up my system. i have a good, new PC and still the FPS are not good, constand low FPS or FPS drops are also common by me and my friends and the loadings times are long combined with some crashes every few days. With the terrible Gun feeling they maybe wantet to show that Guns in WW1 had not the accuracy of a laser, but it stills feels bad. Sure the battlefield feeling is still there, but it is more frustrating than fun. I have now 20h of playtime and have the feeling i already saw and archived everthing.

Might & Magic: CHEST Royale First, i write here since Uplay has no review, thats the first time they let the customer down. But to the game: The first thing that always happend to me is my Avast tries after every patch to put a file in quarantine. Even if not, the game often "forgets" where the game is located and i have to search the folder manually, than it scans all the files and have to repair them, sometimes this is not working and i have to reinstall the game. It is a typical Auto Chess game like everyone made one, so if you played once a Auto Chess you understand it on the first sigth. So whats different? Even bevor you start the game you chose three Heroes, they represent your life and if one dies one life is gone. they provide passiv statboost for your minions after some thresholds they provide a significant boost to a specific unit and faction, some of them are HUGE gamechanger for example: after you drop at 25% life, ALL minions get +50% dodge chance for the rest of the battle, this triggers and one unit can solo the rest of the enemy team. Here comes the first small pay2win aspect of the game, you level the heros not by playing but you get the EP out of the chests, ok one small per day but throw a bunch on money and your hero is level 10 and all your minions and factiosn does more damage. You can get some premium currency by making daylis but they reset after 2(!) days. Now you get into play and then the next downside comes: the game tries to trick you, you think you are playing against 100 other players arround the world simultaniusly. Most of them are clearly BOTS, you see the same name very match, they play like garabge and theyr level stays always the same. The balance is just broken, yet they want you with two different quests to play the weakest factions, for a whole week. The Game flow is buggy or out of sync. sometimes units die randomly or dont die at all. It happend to me now two times that the game disconnectet me with with no reconnect mechanik, so i had to forfeit my clear #1 place for a game restart. The Game is more on the fast side of this kind of game, some units are good looking and it has with its hero systehm (only 3 life, passive boosts and some passive spells) a unique mechanic wich is rigth now completly out of balance.
