The editors didn't like
The video memory at 3GB limits the GTX 1060 to 1920×1080 resolution
PrecisionX OC refused to launch for us after activation. We probably left overclocking performance on the table by setting our overclock manually by being unable to use the advanced overclocking features it offers
Peer to peer connection introduces performance issues for players with bad internet connections
Sound design was a missed opportunity to set up a more epic campaign
The campaign feels rushed
Solely existing to serve the multiplayer
In-game currency ca
Multiplayer sandbagged by microtransactions and P2P woes
Repetitive and underwhelming campaign
Single player ain't great
Matchmaking goes on the wonk sometimes
Won't convince new players to get involved
Breach takes too long
Awful narrative
Combat sometimes becomes too chaotic for its own good
Fighting against more than one opponent can be punishing
Can feel cheap at times
Always online
Some of the accents dont really fit the characters. Early server issues

Deep swordfighting system with lots to learn, Diverse and interesting fighting styles, Useful training tools and AI opponents, Phenomenal animation and sound
Singleplayer is a little undercooked, UI, unlock system and faction metagame are all busy and distracting
A deep and gratifying medieval swordfighting sim that risks putting off newcomers. Persevere and the rewards are well worth it...

Abstract: There was an interview on Radio 4 with an ex-boxer recently, in which she spoke about the peculiar nature of the sport. One thing she said really stood out “Boxing teaches you to use violence as a resource.” That phrase describes the experience of playing...
Intense sword fights, Lots of variety in characters and weapons, Campaign gives you a little taste of everything, “Faction War” metagame pushes you to play in new ways
Technical and connectivity issues can ruin intense fights, Team duels weaken core dueling mechanics, Overwhelming number of mechanics to learn
If you like games with a high skill cap, or want a competitive game that breaks the mold of shooters and online battle arenas, For Honor is worth a shot. It does succeed on in its core promise of brutal third-person sword fighting. Just be warned — this i...
At its core, For Honor is a stunningly great game with exhilarating combat the likes of which are hardly seen. But it's crippled by online issues that reduce its core multiplayer to a frustrating mess.For Honor was reviewed on PlayStation 478 / 100...
Surprisingly deep, and satisfying combat, Moment-to-moment gameplay is a highlight
Multiplayer grind is off-putting, Steel can be used to get ahead of other players, Rating (out of 10): 7, We played a review copy of For Honor on the PC. The game is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One at Rs. 3,499, and Steam for Windows PCs at Rs. 1,799
Good attention to detail, Historically-accurate weapons and armor, Fresh take on satisfying combat system, Good variety of characters for different playstyles, Good variety of cosmetics
Microtransactions in a full-priced game, Game title is ironic; little honor to be found in multiplayer, P2P network connection system instead of dedicated servers, Framerate and connection drops with crowd, Lackluster story mode
So then, what do I think about For Honor? It's a brilliant game with a very fresh concept, in both its control scheme and its premise. Not only do the good ol' one-on-one fights with another player feel intense enough with the usual feeling each other out...

For Honor has some dents in its shiny armor, such as the mediocre campaign, the frugal economy, and the snowballing victories in team modes. But it's hard to be mad too long when I consider that the melee combat system is second to none and a joy to learn...
