“Great game, insufferable playerbase”
“Game is abandoned by the devs, it can be great fun but suffers from lack of content and modability to keep a level of longevity and it's playerbase is dwindling. Get it on a 75%+ off sale. Otherwise theres better…”
“the actual game is pretty decent. however nothing else about it is too fun. there is no casual side to the game, you arent going to really have fun playing the game because its playerbase, which is no suprise. is just…”

“Nothing else will ever feel like this game does. Don't listen to other comments saying it's only try hards playing. Plenty of fun for people starting out in 2026.”
“Look. It's a fun game at its core. In a vacuum I would recommend it. But it's not really a game worth getting into anymore due to the low remaining playerbase, many of which are sweatlords. To get into more detail, the…”
“great game. It seems to have died but this truly was a challenging, ridiculous game that was just, so much fun once you got decent at it.”

“Community is dead but the game is sick. Do yourself a favour, get all your mates on board, rent a server for $10/month, mod it, muck around, admin your own server and just have some fun with it. The mods are actually…”
“it's a fun game with a super high skill ceiling. it's difficult but it's really fun if you put the time into it. that being said the community is horrible. expect slurs to be dropped in chat. occasionally you'll come…”

“Sweats ruined it years ago, game is basically on life support at this point. Made the same mistakes they said they wouldn't make.”

“serverside blocking in a reaction based fighting game, came back after over a year and hit a triple 0ms red parry, which means that I blocked the frame I got hit 3 times in a row. I was punished for parrying frame…”
“i don't recommend this game to a new player. Fundamentaly a great concept in it's combat. Very immersive until you dig a little depper into the highest skill combat. High skill comes down to exploiting movement and…”
“What happened to this game??? It used to be such a GREAT game I haven't played it in years and NOTHING has changed at all no new content whatsoever and it's boring asf”

“Was fun while it lasted. These games die because the devs never listen to nor build a separate platform for the casual players. Skills based systems need to be implemented in all casual gamemodes. More casual gamemodes that are a little goofier and more gamey than realistic also…”
— a player, Steam review · 125 hrs played“this is a great game for all of the "abandoned" reviews, I urge you to remember a time where games could just be considered finished rather than everything being live service active servers, fun, mostly nontoxic community high skill curve but you can have fun even if you are bad”
— a player, Steam review · 269 hrs played“The game itself is very good, but it has devolved into useless bribed admins who are actively covering for cheaters. People are blatantly cheating their loadouts, their swing speed, their block cooldowns, they have infinite stamina, they 1 shot kill kings/nobles, they glitch…”
