Thanks for the review. Though I am an AEW fan, I haven't played a wrestling game for a while.

I hope by the time I do get the game, the dev team can patch out the issues brought up here (of course, I am not handwaving releasing a game with bugs)

Pretty odd that you expected the developers responsible for the last decade of WWE games (outside the last 3, of which 2 are fantastic and 1 is literally trash) to make something better than this.

@TimeBomb014X Год назад

Problem is much like the actual WWE, Vince McMahon's house of sweaty men slapping meat has set the standard bench mark of what to expect from a wrestling company and the same goes for the games. Years of WWE games you expect a certain level quality and features, but thing is wrestling is a chiche game genre and AEW is even more nixhe than the WWE, so expect sequels to be made on the back of Tony's dad's money

@fattiger6957 Год назад

It's pretty obvious that this game has a much lower budget than the 2k WWE games. So I doubt it would need to do massive sales numbers to make a tidy profit. A couple million sales would probably considered a huge success.

@ThrobbGoblin Год назад

I'm seeing a lot of "This is their first outing, of course it's not going to be as polished as WWE games!" Cool, I'll buy 'Fight Forever 2025' once they can actually compete.

@Damackism Год назад

Another good review. I agree that this game is not a day 1 purchase. If it was 39.99 to 49.99. It would be worth it. But $60 for a less feature rich wrestling game. Whose creation options are less than what Fire Pro Wrestling World had to offer. And FPRW was released at 39.99. Its a wrestling game from a rival company tp WWE. With former WWE wrestlers on their roster. And developed by the company who developed the WWE games for over 20 yrs. So yes it is going up against WWE 2k games. The AEW figures are sold right next to the WWE figures in most retail stores .

@soylencer Год назад

First I want to comment, I don't know if it was a day one patch or the Nvidia drivers, but I play in 4K and I have a 3080, and I have had a couple of busy matches and there seems to be no frame rate slowdowns. I have even played on high settings on my steam deck with little issue. Perhaps it was just an issue related to your early review copy. Thank you for the fairly objective review. There are too many salty 2K fans that aren't taking this game in on its own merits. Particularly in regards to not being able to import and iterate on existing content. They like to not acknowledge that there have been 20 some odd 2K games and they typically share content year to year. I will concede that the creation suite is kind of a joke with its current amount of content, particularly for those creating women's division members. However as you stated when it works, the matches are actually quite fun. I was happy that I was able to get a discount on the PC version, All I will say there is that if you're on PC there are many legal places to buy legitimate copies of games and sometimes they are cheaper than Steam.

Honestly, the character creation looks like when they 1st made Smackdown! for the PS1. It's a nice starting point to grow from with more entries into the series. Graphics don't look bad in motion, gameplay looks fun. I might put this on my list of Switch games to buy

@trza49er Год назад

It would be sooo easy to improve this game right away. I feel like overhauling the edit mode or adding crazy new match types is probably shooting for the moon, but there are a handful of match types already in the RTE mode that aren't currently available in exhibition. Surely they could be added easily enough. One of my other gripes is how limited each wrestler's move set is, due in large part to them not utilizing all the directional inputs. Instead of 4 front and 2 rear grapples, for example, it should be 5 and 5. This would go a long way towards match variety. And they have to get the 3v3 matches in, whatever it takes.

@JTsavage7577 Год назад

The lack of a reversal indicators option cripples this game. Especially combined with the lack of a proper tutorial. Its the basics here that are just missing.

I had a blast with most of that whole Smackdown series too. This new AEW game looks like a fun throwback to the kind of games like No Mercy and those GameCube games. Last time I bought a wrestling game it was WWE 2K20, and I've been disappointed with the product. AEW Fight Forever looks like it's fun to play, but I'm not sure i can justify paying $60 for it right now.

Solid review, dude. As a fan of all kinds of wrestling, from all different companies, like WWE, AEW, NJPW, Impact, MLW, NWA, Stardom, GCW, and more, I was really hoping this game would make an impact right out the gate, but the issues I heard it had in development had me worried. I'm glad to know that there's some good here, though. Some of looks fun, and it definitely still has potential, as long as Yuke's keeps working on it, patching bugs, and adding new modes and new wrestlers, cause AEW has a huge roster compared to what's in the game. Hope things look a lot better for Fight Forever in 6 months to a year.

This and a lot of the real-life action the promotion itself showcases are one in the same; silly video game wrestling. Let me be clear - that is totally fine. This is something people will like for the people who like that kind of thing. For me, the pool is too shallow for the most part. As a fan of AEW and after three years in development (scraping the bones of a nearly two decade old game) $60 is quite the ask. WCW/nWo Revenge, No Mercy and others from the late 90’s and early 2000’s had far more content and felt more realistic to a degree with how they actually played. Waiting for a deep sale on this one. Thanks for the great review ACG!!!

I really hope they end up having an amazing sequel down the future and I hope they can fix this game and make it better over time but it was not worth the pre-order especially for its current price $40 is only acceptable $70 is crazy

@realicepick285 Год назад

It's definitely a bit pricey for what they have, but I cannot get this style of gameplay, or characters or the fact they are using a buy once and just update it model.. I just have to support those things.

@lostpunkrock Год назад

Im excited for this but its gonna be a wait before i buy this one. I just moved to Japan so this aint on the top of my budget right now.

@retrogroovtv Год назад

ima wait till this game goes down in price before i try it out seems hella fun but missing a lot of extra content 🧐

Wtf ?

@Xamthekingofswing Год назад

Hope this does sell well. It’s seems the heart is in the right place for this even with its problems. Very much focusing on the no mercy gameplay. Will look to play at some point

@zippobone Год назад

I have been following this game since day one and I can't wait to get it but can't afford it right now so wait is what I will have to do.

Hoping modders get ahold of the PC version and go wild

I actually met the president /CEO of AEW a few months ago while I was working on his jet. Had no idea that AEW has gotten popular enough to get its own game.

@UncomfortableShoes 11 месяцев назад

The game was one of the first things that they set in motion when the company launched. Nothing to do with popularity and more to do with a reasonable business choice.

@TheThirdWorldCitizen Год назад

Not too bad honestly, it can only go up and get better from this first attempt.

@ACGreviews Год назад

Yep

@jamesjones-ez9ug Год назад

I wonder why they have all of those backstage areas in road to elite but didn’t make them playable.

@jonathanturbide2232 Год назад

Right? Hopefully it's going to be an update/patch at some point, having no backstage areas to fight in is a huge fail.

@OriginalHimLaden Год назад

I’m going full price for this one if the gameplay is close to the N64 era. I have 2k23 but haven’t gotten into yet

@jedimaster12100 Год назад

Definitely wait for a sale for me.

@johnnycage6132 7 месяцев назад

This is a good $9.99 game RIP to anyone who bought this full price

@topdamagewizard Год назад

I'm pulling for this game. But I have to admit if this was a WWE game I would have no mercy for it.

@Qwazaar919 Год назад

holy shii to that 1-2-3 kid vs shawn michaels spot.. don't remember that one. jeezuz

@SomaBT Год назад

Good review, I might just wait til the sale.

@PersianGamer36 Год назад

I just have one question does this feel like THQ N64 wrestling games? WwF no mercy, wcw vs nwo revenge?

@cmoney1928 Год назад

I'll get it when it is on sale.

@rafaelkresmar3998 Год назад

Honestly I just wish they would finally create an actual Professional Wrestling simulator. Where we can simply do great matches and not pretend like it's a competition against the other opponent... Wrestling games should be about putting on great shows and entertaining the viewers not about pretending to guys fight

@BMGplaythroughs Год назад

I was tempted to get this game on day one, however after looking at some reviews, i am going to wait until it is on sale, 3 years in development and this is what we get, it needs to get better and hopefully that will happen with future patches and updates!

@horriblefridge Год назад

Me too.

@423chart Год назад

Same, well said. I can’t believe after three years in development and using the bones of a nearly twenty year old game, THIS is what we got.

@billywashere6965 Год назад

@@423chart People here really don't understand how development works. Three years is nothing. If you have to build out new lighting systems, mechanics, physics, and sound design, three years is a breeze. Keep in mind that WWF No Mercy was the culmination of five years worth of incremental developmental starting back in 1996. Having to work from the ground-up as they're doing now with the AEW game requires a lot of resources.

@423chart Год назад

@@billywashere6965 then don’t release the game if it isn’t ready. And if they do choose to release it in such a sorry state, fine, but shame on them asking $60
