Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization Review 

Waifu please, you're embarrassing me on my review!

lol AI in games never gets old

haha xD

i bought this game yesterday at game stop

Franklin Clinton just bought on ps store and is downloading... how did you like it..worth it?

GREATEST EVER yes but Star Ocean is better

Franklin Clinton ps store said it's 2-4 players..does it actually have online play with others? ... yeah I saw star ocean am a big fan of series I'll probably get it next

+wolfflow I can agree with that especially if this is your first SAO game, just wish it didn't get to repetitive with its core gameplay so quickly.

Luis Alamilla Changing weapons helps..

Your first buy is actually the game, after that you pay the service monthly

wolfflow do u play it on ps4

FF14 sucked though 😐

Thanks and agreed! Doubt you'd have to wait for it go on sale for long either, they tend to go on sale rather quickly :)

Welcome to the channel! And big thanks to your friend for spreading the word ^^

I would but not on Vita, the FPS for this specific game on Vita is terrible.

You can create your own character but it gets treated as Kirito in cutscenes.

Luis Alamilla that is really disappointing.

TheFlyingAdamGrayson even though i really love kirito; i do agree. Creating your own character would be great and have him not be shown as kirito.

TheFlyingAdamGrayson me too, it will be better a different scenario, but fatal bullet has, they said your own character has a story not kirito anymore,

Hope you have fun!

lol I just bought it bc I love SAO but stands out it's better as expected. Honestly I like it more than xenoblate chronicles.

Hopefully you enjoy it! :D

There's a new one out this coming week too!

+vinny9500 If you're an SAO fan yeah

+SideSpoon Gaming Didn't look up the translation sources for HF to compare to this new title

SideSpoon Gaming as far as i see people videos on youtube i never saw that infamous penetration word... so i think it is good lol.

Happy to help, you can get the older games for pretty cheap now too! :)

Damn, great job! :)

AimlessCinderKnight you’re in luck Alicization Lycorsis is a thing now

+Jumpmon Many either love it or hate it. I enjoyed it and like many thought the first arc was the best arc.

Jumpmon imo i love it. But oh well.

i personally enjoy it but apparently compared to other animes its trash???????? im not an anime fan so i wouldn't know

Technically you can use a custom character when you create an avatar but yeah the game still treats you as Kirito.

JadeEpicP Gaming that would be perfect

jumping moose and please let us change the difficult it's so fucking easy

More like an rpg

@@Luisgvn I am literally lvl 50 and I just got into zone 3, leveling up with multiplayer is so easy

i would like this to be more like actual mmo

Same

There's a multiplayer mode

Luis Alamilla is it worth getting then because my friend and I want to play it because we love Sao but the price is kinda pricey and idk if multiplayer is really that good. thx for the reply tho

+Luminous CoD I'd still say wait for a sale first.

Yup

Luis Alamilla Thanks for the reply. All the other SAO games kinda sucked so I'm a little I'm doubt about this one 😂

Happy to help!

Let me see if I can find it, pretty old video

Join us.......

I actually regret my decision of getting an Xbox One mostly because of this game, and other anime related games.

@@Comfy_Luna You should have bought a Ps4 for Persona 5, well, I am sure that game didn't exist yet

I believe you can date any of the girls.

Lol, no worries.

$40 or lower.

Luis Alamilla I literally just bought this for $5 digital on amazon..

+Hobo Knife I think k you mean re: hollow fragment not realization

Luis Alamilla oh snap just realized that. Haha. Good catch, thx! xD

+Hobo Knife 😂👍

well then i saw the whole vid...looks like yes lmao

haha

+Willis Allen Jr If there humours I tend to enjoy them, but can agree some overstay their welcome.

2 minutes of a nonmotion cutscene I can deal with. Some take 15 minutes or more. I do love the gameplay. It really does remind me of playing an MMO and when you get that hard to get gear its very accomplishing. I did accidentally sell a hard to find sword. :(

For $20 I'd say so

Repetitive game play falls into bosses as well.

i can understand your frustration if the bosses are tedious but if they are difficult, then good for the game, why is that a negative??????????

the only downside so far

Wessam Hamadneh P5: Hold my Joker

+Uni Planeptune Sister Know what it is but never er played it

Well I guess since the second season is based on guns......Its basically either third person shooter or first

+Uni Planeptune Sister third person would fit better

It's coming. Search "Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet". Amazon already has preorders up.

Do it fam

I want to romance Leafa FBI: *HOLD IT THERE BUCKAROO*

+Cr33p3rKid yup yup yup

Cr33p3rKid what? There's a. Ew sao game coming out?

New* not ew

Utopia39000 In Hollow Realization, Luis said that Seven is the developer for Sword Art: Origin

+Anes Bman (sad violin music intensifies)

+Zak Think you're reaching for complaints when your main complaint of the game is the design of the default costumes that are interchangeable. Any of the other complaints about gameplay I'd agree with mostly.

I haven't played the game, could be amazing for all I know, all I can see is a fucking stupid design choice with that underbra thing at 3:36, like a human thought that'd be a good thing to draw...

that's how the costumes are in the anime. However, once you get your party members skills to a specific level, you can ask them change into a different gear which will be more dps/utility/def oriented. I didn't have it equipped on all party members yet but I managed to bring one character offensive trait to 300 and asked her to change into dps gear. Which is pretty neat, if you ask me. If it's the general style of fashion that puts you off, well...it's anime and it's something you call fanservice. That's what they do in anime... Makes you ask question like "why are you wearing ANYTHING at all?!", I get it, but it's the general art style of the game..

AwesomeWinter no, fan service is not an answer for bad costume design, Kill La Kill is a show with tons of fan service what has some of the best costume design in anime, that is because the absurd nature of the costumes worked for the absurd nature of the show, SAO isn't a wacky show, so girls with their tits out everywhere doesn't really make much sense. SAO is a series that has pretty much always had pretty consistent quality character and costume designs, you can just tell these where probably drawn by a different person.

This is your opinion . Reminder

Like I said, gameplay is very familiar to the previous game Hollow Fragment. Gameplay shown in the review was limited to the first 4 hours because people don't like spoilers.

Actually no the gameplay is nothing like the previous game. In HF sword arts were locked animations where you had to create a custom pre determined combo chain. In this game it is free form and the new combo system lets you be more creative than the previous titles. If anything its more like Lost Song. Also I don't see how talking about the skill tree, how many weapons there are, or the blacksmithing or even event fragments spoil anything about the game. Like I said everyone I know who plays and streams this game, and talks in those streams enjoy this game mainly for the new combat features and skill tree/event fragments and multiplayer end game bosses, but you mentioned none of that and then even said you wouldn't recommend this game. You don't even have a full grasp of 20% of this game to make a recommendation on it.

You seem to know a lot about this game. May I ask you what plataform do you have it for? It is because I got Lost Song for the ps vita last Christmas and I really loved that game!!!! :3 I even plat it because I enjoyed so much the overall experience. So I would like to know if this one is worth it. Hope you could answer me, I am a big fan of SAO and I really enjoy this kind of things!!! :D Thanks. :P

I enjoyed it :)

fluffy tony If you ask me long song is good but the gameplay is not my thing. But the final boss was garbage.

+MrWarriorace which final boss scrub???😂

The first one was infinite moment on psp then hollow fragment then lost song and the 4th one is Reali

I agree played this and the last one and tbh if i wasn't a sword art online fan i would of gave it a miss and wish I had waste of dam money with so many better games out there. It was a struggle to finish as it was boring as hell however i do know people enjoy it and they have a right to but unless the next sword art online game changes dramatically i will be giving it a miss

As a fan of the anime you just saved me $50, I'm desperately looking for my first real mmorpg with characters and story I know I'll like. Seems even SAO can't fit my bill. Sad.
