Who else loves this game?!
Okay... Ive waited a while to do this but i think after enough hours into absolver (still havent found the calbot)
I can honestly say im completely addicted,
BUT... After all this time i realize im addicted to the pve, and clearly have been since day one lol i enjoy pvp just as much as the next guy who loves being sweep kicked to death by some tool lookin to win vs what the game is all about and that is the art of combat, reading your opponent's moves and acting precisely, swiftly executing them with style.
Anybody can spam a jab, hook two piece or a flurry of power strikes that absorb a single strike. To be a true absolver one must deal with these annoyances, i have rage quit sooooo many times but i keep coming back no matter what.
I wanna build a new deck or alter an old one an go fight jinn again and again and again haha
Bottom line is this;
i fuckin love this game as if it were a close friend....who unknowingly teaches me kung fu through the bleeding effect lol
I really hope theres others out there who will continue whoopin ass in adal with me.
And to sloclap and devolver and everyone who help make this title: bravo.

But on PC. It's rough, and it looks dire.
I do too love this game, but from my love I see it's problems.
It's been a bunch of unfortunate events that led to this game's population going down to 50 players on steam.
The horrible launch due to no stress test via Open Beta. (Server being unstable for a week, killing a massive amount of the traffic gained from the Streamer Promotion)
Infinite Loading Screens have been around since release. You might as well play something else when it happens instead of constantly restarting the game (most people's methods to getting past it).
When you don't get those, you get the same decks that use Roll Back Fist(Or Similar), Grab Punch. (The boring Meta that has happened)
So currently the players and the game itself are killing the game on PC.
I hope for a resurgence, but it came out I would consider unfinished (in a gameplay loop sense) on top of all these technical and balance problems.
I also tried to make a new character but I dropped him after 40 minutes because I didnt want to farm every move again and like UNCBLOCKS I am a little hoarder, so I prefer to play with a single character.
The fashion in this game is also a big plus for me, I have spent hundreds of hours in dark souls 2 just to get every armorset to mix parts up and 9 different equipment slots are a lot more interesting than 4.
I play the PC version aswell and while it is somewhat lonely during the day, the evening isnt so bad, i rarely have to wait more than 20-30 seconds per match even with just over 100 people online. I guess that is the perk of not having much else to do but 1vs1.
I only realized it, when I was watching "Dragon Blade" by Jackie Chan and John Cusack. Almost every one of their fighting moves reminded me of an attack on Absolver. It was uncanny.
Truthfully i think a nice reward from the devs to the die hard players who have consistantly stuck around would be pretty cool, like a super unique one of a kind piece of gear or somthing that people could see and say "oh shit that guy is an o.g."
Im sticking around to see what becomes of absolver, good or bad i will forever be a huge fan of this game. If i become the last person playing it someday, it wont surprise me at all lol
I've been looking for a game that is based on knowledge and skill with a dynamic fluid combat system, and boy, does this game delivers, lol. And that is saying a lot, because i have been looking for years and that is no exaggeration.
Theoretically you can strategically construct each deck with enemies in mind, i even built a deck that is great in crowds cause in the early days on ps4 i would play off line and get ganked by 8 or 9 lost prospects at a time haha im glad i saved it cause its gonna come in handy for 3v3
Im constantly turning down other games to play and at this point i think an absolver tattoo is in my future hehe
If anybody wants to join me in this wonderful game my PSN is Shreddurrst and my IGN for Absolver is Ithroman.
PEACE
