Fast format. Not quite the traditional way of playing but that's fine. Still a collectible card game so you will be spending some money in game if you want cards faster. You will be able to get them eventually if you don't though.

Really fun and not too long. Has most of the original voice cast.

You need to temporarily disable your antivirus or whatever it is you're using to keep your pc clean.

check the bottom if too long for you. it's mostly just spaced out to focus on different aspects of the game.

It's not bad. Kind of feels like a fusion between CS and TF2. Different classes have different abilites almost all of which you can also activate within their vicinity. Don't really remember the conditions for it. I just see the prompt to do it occasionally. I think it's when they use it you can. You can customize your weapon loadout as well. I would advise not skipping the 5 minute tutorial in the beginning even if you regularly play fps games. There are differences.

Quick play builds a team based on, what I think is, k/d ratio. So the team will almost always be mixed skill levels. Not a bad thing necessarily. Leads to unpredictable games. There is a custom match option but I haven't tried it yet. If it's like other games that have custom matches you can have your mlg mountain dewritos matches there.

There's deathmatch, bomb defusal/planting, and what I think was a capture the point mode. In that mode, I don't know the conditions for it, you can call in a think tank to aid you. Might be like CoD where you get enough kills and you can call it in. I don't quite know. Saw the prompt to hit 'E' for backup and it came. Played the match type once as of this review.

You can earn in game money just by playing. Already modded my weapons quite a bit and that's only about 6 hours into playing. NO MONEY NEEDS TO BE SPENT. Only cosmetics need to be bought with real money from what I've seen so far. Might chage by the time you read this review. If you haven't the patience to grind and have the money you can just buy in game currency.

The ui is a little intimidating at first. It looks a lot more complicated than it actually is.

If they allow community involvement to the likes of TF2 and CS I can see this becoming something really good. It's pretty much what keeps tf2 and the like still alive and making valve money for over 10 years. Unfortunately I doubt Nexon would looking at how developers and publishers think differently about game developement out east than the west does.

If you liked the show I think it is pretty faithful to it from what I've seen. Graphics are really nice and runs really smoothly. The voices are those from the english dub. That or good imitators. Not sure if there are other language options. Didn't check.

TL;DR?
CS and TF2 fused. Game is good. Could be great if they allowed community involvement like those two games. But being developed from where it is they probably won't. Faithful to the source material. No bugs found so far.

Not bad. It isn't very complicated to learn and is pretty fun. If you're a fan of the show you'll most likely like it. If you're getting lag and your pc has specs that should handle this no problem there's two things you can try. Open up the task manager while the game is running and right click NS3FB.exe to low priority and/or change the resolution to 30hz. Some people do both. Some do one or the other. If that doesn't then I guess you'll have to find another way to fix it online.

Pretty good game. Got a queen. Had a kid. Turned out to be a girl and had a revolt because of it. Could be a little cheaper in my opinion though with all the dlc and this game being 3 years old. You guys with only 2000 hours of playing are small time compared to that guy who has over a years worth of play time.

Great game. Even without dlc. Although many of the mods made require the DLC. Once you start modding though you'll mod it like crazy until you have over 200 mods and it takes up a quarter of your space. Good thing is though you'll make it significantly better than the base game. Bad thing is it might draw you to strange places when you get bored with the basic mods and end up breaking skyrim and have to completely remove it and re-install. But if you've already visited Lordran or Drangleic you will probably find the combat in this boring and sloppy and stop playing it shortly after stopping.

Delicious game. I am terrible at it but still love it anyway. I've unfortuanately been preoccupied with Dark Souls but know where I'm going to go back to when I'm done with that. Gorgeous sprites and animation, a bunch of easter eggs, DLC characters are not reskins and are free for a short time when initially released. Hopefully they are just as generous with future dlc characters.

Not bad at all for the short time I've played it. Highly recommend a console controller or a fight stick. I heard it's optimized for a console controller though. Needs some serious polishing when compared to other fighters like KoF or Street Fighter but comparing it is like being thrown a wad of $10 bills and complain that you didn't get a wad of $100 bills thrown at you. It's pretty good for it's price. Looks like a curator that says there's a way to get it free anyway.

I love this game but don't buy this. Wait for the updated version to be released in, I believe it is, April. It will recieve a next gen graphics update (What it had before it had to be downgraded for console peasants) and desirable additions that they will not add to this version including the DLC included with the new version. It will be a waste of your money if you buy this less complete version or get it as a gift for a friend. It's a really good game aside from the developers crafty business prectices. Dark Souls 1 and Demons Souls are much better. Bloodborne, their newest title, is coming out soon for the PS4 anyway. I'd advise those before Dark Souls 2 unless your the kind of person that wants to play the worst of the group first. I'm going to have to not recommend this unless they decide to apply the changes to the new version to this one. As I said before I'm not calling this a bad game. Get the new version released later this year if you must get this game.

tl;dr
Buying this over the new verion released later is like buying version 1 of Dark Souls 1 without the Artorias DLC at full price. We paid for in full to be beta testers for the new version to be released soon.

Get Dark Souls. Just do it. You have no reason not to unless you don't like fun.

edit
Also no more GFWL AND I'm glad we got major necessary updates for this old game and not have to buy another version of it for PC like for Dark Souls 2.

another edit
Looks like you do now
