Injustice: Gods Among Us - Ultimate Edition Review (_Xwory)
I don't know how to feel about this game, it's kinda whatever honestly.
I played Injustice 2 and I liked it a fair bit and thought it was a decent game, however this game was a bit of a mix-bag.
The game isn't bad bur it could be SO much better in a lot of ways.
Gotta say, the singleplayer content is really good in this game, honestly might be better than in Injustice 2.
The roster is also really good, including fan favourites to lots of people, which very unique movesets which are distinct to each member of it, so in that regard, is pretty cool.
There are also quite a lot of unlockables, which you get by level-ing up, and you level up by playing matches.
The story mode is also decent enough, and what most people relate this game and Injustice 2 with, so if you only care about the story mode, then you shouldn't care too much about the other stuff.
Everything else... Not too good.
The controls in this game feel super clanky, it's weird because I played other fighting games and Injustice 2, but this game feels really weird to move around and do combos, or even cancelling into specials I found kind of tough most of the time.
By the way, don't play this game with a keyboard, play it with a controller.
The online also just doesn't work, the servers barely have anyone in them and they are super buggy, to the point where it's frustrating to find anyone, and even when you do find someone, there is A LOT of delay, so it is not a very enjoyable experience, and it sucks because in a fighting game, online and multiplayer is very important.
Also, is it just me or does this game look really weird in how it looks?
I don't know, the lack of colors, some effects, how some of the characters look...
The game feels weird to look at.
Overall, the game is oooook. It doesn't stand out in any way besides the singleplayer, but the game feeling clanky and online being broken are 2 very big factors that hurt the game so much.
So it depends on what you are looking for, but Injustice 2 does a lot of things better than Injustice 1, I recommend that one and not so much this one.
If you want a singleplayer fighting game, this one is decent because of the content and story mode.
Personally, if my game has a feature, that feature better work and feel nice, other than that... Meh.
5.4/10
