God Eater 3 Reviews
God Eater 3 isn't quite polished like Monster Hunter World, but it surely is the best alternative to Capcom's videogame.

God Eater 3's another frenetic action RPG where the enjoyable rhythm and flow of combat is enough to outweigh most of the negatives. Whether you're up for a lengthy session or you're just stopping by to farm some materials, the game's easy to sink your teeth into, and there's plenty to chew on should you find yourself hooked thanks to the in-depth character progression. While more could and probably should have been done to bring God Eater's visuals and cumbersome menus up to speed, there's still plenty of skilful hack and slashing on offer here.
God Eater 3 is a shining example of a sequal improving in almost every way. For thos looking for a more story driven alternative to Monster Hunter World God Eater 3 is may be your game.
While God Eater 3 has taken a bit of a knock in the visuals department, it’s a sacrifice that’s more than worth it for mostly consistent performance and a steady framerate.
The complexity of the game can definitely be a huge barrier to entry, and there's a repetitiveness that comes with hunting games that might turn you off if that's not something you enjoy. Still, God Eater 3 functions as a strong, complex JRPG and a good way to test out the series if you've been curious this whole time.
The latest God Eater swoops in with a re-tuned Burst system and increased emphasis on literally fighting for your boosts and buffs on the field. I wish it showed more risks and attempted to evolve the franchise instead of just polishing it as the series is starting to show its age a bit. At the same time, it boasts its own unique mechanics and fun, fast-paced gameplay, making it more than just a mere Monster Hunter clone.
God Eater 3 is a good hunting game that, could serve as an ideal star point for those that haven't played these type of games. Having said that, it feels simple and with a lot of wasted potential. It works perfectly but veteran players will not find a lot to do on it aside from enjoying a kinda cliche and postapocaliptic story with anime design.

God Eater 3 definitely has a tougher barrier of entry compared to last year's Monster Hunter: World. Most of that is due to complexity; God Eater 3 has tons of combat mechanics, a weird, jargon-filled narrative, and just generally a lot going on at once. However, it also doesn't have a lot of the same heavy preparation and survival vibe of Monster Hunter, so it's really more about mastering the action than micro-managing your inventory and outsmarting behemoths.
God Eater 3 is a pretty decent Monster Hunter-like, but the game seems so old in terms of gameplay and visuals.

God Eater 3's blend of hack-and-slash with light role-playing elements makes for a compelling and fast-paced experience propelled by a fun story.
Although God Eater 3 boasts some stellar gameplay mechanics that allow you to play how you'd like, the surrounding aspects keep it back from being otherwise a great game.
God Eater 3 is still a must for fans of the saga, which after many remastering will finally have something new on which to vent their hunger for divinity

Although almost every single mechanic in the game feels eerily similar to the Monster Hunter series, God Eater 3 manages to stand on its own (monstrous) two feet thanks to some incredible combat and a surprisingly engaging story.
Overall, while I can't say that God Eater 3 does much to step away from the paths of its predecessors, I enjoyed my time with it. I had fun devising strategies and gathering crafting materials, so much so that I never once backed down from doing even optional missions when playing.
God Eater 3 doesn't particularly do anything new and amazing for the hack-and-slash RPG genre – but what it does, it does really well. Despite the drags of the narrative, and extreme gripes with button bindings (and sometimes forgetting which buttons to press), God Eater 3 manages to keep you wanting more through combat, weapon upgrades and different battle tactics.
While far from perfect, God Eater 3 combines many engaging elements resulting in a game worth your time
God Eater 3 might not be perfect but it's a lot of fun. The new gameplay mechanics make for a faster experience, something that works really well in this world, along with enough depth to keep players interested. By retaining some key elements, such as guns, power ups from enemies, online multiplayer and crafting, there is more than enough to keep most people interested for a fair amount of time. When you consider there is also a rather interesting, albeit anime-esque, storyline, it makes for a fine adventure. Sure, it isn't perfect or going to beat Monster Hunter: World but there is more than enough to have fun or join others in overcoming some obstacles.
To play God eater 3 on the go, shrinking down some graphics on Switch is inevitable. However, the gameplay experience remains the same as other platforms, and even better on the Co-op part, since the local multiplayer mode is exclusive to the Switch version.

A staggering amount of gameplay customisation options, and adrenaline-pumping combat make it easy to forgive and forget some of its few shortcomings.
Overall, I really enjoyed playing God Eater 3. It's far from perfect but definitely a step in the right direction. Despite sharing the same genre as highly established franchises such as Monster Hunter, it does well in separating itself from the rest with its own set of unique mechanics and style of combat. The lock-on system can get a little frustrating, but it's nothing you can't get used to. The lineup of Aragami can be improved, but I know more encounters are coming in the future via patches. A little overpriced for what it's worth in its current stage, but it's a game I'd personally keep.
