I could’ve sworn they killed it already.
Wouldn’t have been too bad if they had any content. It was fun for a couple of hours. Just a shit GoS.

Which one was Anthem again?
-
Anthem launched?
-
Cunts
-
Fr they could at least patch it to allow custom servers
-
-
But they can't just patch out always-online DRM! Think of all the no more money they'd lose!
-
I've heard how amazing the flying feels. Are there any games that has cool flying or better than Anthem I could try out?
-
They killed Mass Effect for this
-
Had a lot of fun playing it with friends for a few weeks. People are haters.

This game had so much potential, the combat was fun, the powers/weapons you got were unique and felt punchy and powerful. The flying was amazing, and when you popped your super and everything around you just evaporated into charred metal and meat chunks? Whoo, that shit was fun.
But the gear upgrade system for everything but weapons was very lackluster. The micro transactions were front and Center, and you really didn't get many free options to look cool. The prices were laughable for what you were getting. And as fun as the combat was, it didn't make up for how little content there actually was. You get a piddly squirt of what could have been. And what's there is repetitive.
It had great bones. With a fresh team it could have been phenomenal with what they had already. They just didn't try.

I only played it late, after they basically gave you free legendary stuff, so I can definitely see that being a dealbreaker

Alternative title: Anthem servers are still online.
I thought it shut down years ago.
No, that was just development on the promised No Man's Sky-style recovery they were working on.
