Came here from Monster Hunter hoping to have a good co-op game to play with friends, but God Eater 3 ended up being a huge disappointment. Most missions feel like 5 minutes of gameplay followed by 5 minutes of cutscenes, and the combat is so shallow that there barely seems to be any reason to do more than mash basic attacks. Upgrades and weapon progression also felt pointless, since nothing in the game really pushed …

If Saints Row is the best competitor to GTA then GOD EATER 3 is the best competitor to Monster Hunters. This is the good stuff.

OVERALL At the current 90% discount price, this game is one of the most worthy buys I've ever seen on Steam. It's simply a well made game on a terrific franchise. It's a lot of fun growing your character, building different weapons and weapon masteries, as well as growing your NPC team. If you're not familiar with the God Eater universe, it's basically post-apocalyptic Monster Hunter in a darker world where survival …

It's repetitive and grindy, but if you want something to play a little every day this is perfect. Jump in, kill a monster or two, jump out.

The game is good, it plays very well on controller but the sensitivity on mouse and key is crazy as hell. The gameplay loop gets repetitive sometimes because of the small number of monsters especially if you have played the previous games. However if you are new to the franchise you will without a doubt enjoy yourself.

Critics, per Wikipedia
Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu awarded the game a score of 32/40. On PlayStation 4, the game received "mixed or average reviews" according to review aggregator Metacritic. GameSpot Ginny Woo enjoyed the game's characters and story, but criticized the game's difficulty curve. On IGN, David Jagnaeux praised the game for its combat calling it: "An exciting take on the Monster Hunter formula, even if its lackluster story and somewhat unvaried content keep it from being the best it could be". In Japan, approximately 20,960 physical copies for Switch were sold during its launch week, becoming the number two selling game of any format in the country's retail market. The PS4 version of the game…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →God Eater 4 when. And if it ever happens, please just let the protagonist TALK lol. It honestly irritated me sometimes, there were moments where I felt like Hugo was the actual protagonist and I was just a background character in my own story.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Got God Eater 3 on steam bc it's like 4 bucks right now and it gets 60fps on PC. Not a good game, but a fun bad one. Feels nice to hit shit with big anime weapons. Story is anime lorem ipsum but you can skip all of it so it's better than Wilds. Wish they were making a GE4 instead of Code Vein 2
neutral · AI labelView post →God Eater 3 is a strange child. While the previous two installments were co-developed by Bandai Namco & Shift, GE3's co-developer was Marvelous. More importantly, GE1/2's lead director Hiroshi Yoshimura vacated his driving role in favor of Ittetsu Suzuki, and the game shows a proportionally drastic change in its developmental priorities. Shift and Yoshimura themselves both moved onto Code Vein, which in its turn is a spiritual successor to God Eater, as well as their answer to Dark Souls—in the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Only god eaters on steam worth playing imho, its cool, its decent for the price point on sale, and most importantly of all, it has a manageable camera angle unlike god eaters 1 and 2. God eaters 1 and 2 arent bad either dont get me wrong, but because they are so much older, and ported aswell, the camera angle is super zoomed in and doesnt work very well aside from that they arent bad games either. To put it as simple as possible, this game just has the most quality of life features over the…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →One of my favorites is God Eater 3. It kinda comes out of nowhere halfway through the game but when that character started calling me mommy I was immediately conflicted by the desire to put her in my party for the rest of the game and the desire to not put her in danger fighting giant monsters.
positive · AI labelView post →The game didn't live up to the hype. Bottom line: Only grab this on a deep sale; it is definitely not worth the full price. Cons: Repetitive Gameplay: There are only four small, enclosed combat arenas. The entire gameplay loop consists of upgrading at your weapons, sitting through dialogue, and fighting in those same four spots. Lack of Variety: Enemy variety is extremely poor. Some enemies might look different, but they are essentially just re-skins of each other. Boring Combat: Boss…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It varies. For God Eater 3 I was able to recreate Kairi pretty closely. She looks like a soft bean in this game lol. In Maplestory, it's vastly different due to the limitations of customizations for each class.
neutral · AI labelView post →I don't understand how God Eater 3 can have a positive rating. The game is incredibly repetitive. The levels are always the same, the creatures are always the same, the NPCs' repetitive dialogue is always the same... in short... so much repetition in this excessively long game for no reason. The only positive point is the story, but there are so many negative aspects that even the story is tarnished. I'm just glad I bought this game at a discount; otherwise, I would have refunded it. I…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I always loved GE series but this one is kinda meh on long term. No difficulty settings Silent, blank, self insert protag with no personality Infantile story designed for 12 years old. Makes me cringe. And yet I still got all achievments and finished game 3 times. Still love the series. Hope 4th one will get better if it ever gets made.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The gameplay itself is not the worst, but the story is very dragged out and cutscene-heavy, without enough interesting points to justify it. An incredibly large amount of your time in this game is either going to be in the cutscenes, or fighting the same enemy as before with increased stats. Those harder enemies can have their pathfinding broken with relative ease, intentional or not. Build variety is largely discouraged, leveling up mastery of a certain type of weapon, as opposed to having a…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this just an ok game. it isn’t remarkable in any way but it can be a good game for listening to music/podcasts/etc. it’s a nice alternative to the monster hunter series if you prefer something more fast paced and you feel overwhelmed by earlier monster hunter’s entries UI. the plot was there but i kinda got lost in the middle. it also feels like they run out of budget at some point and opted for fallout ahh ending with nothing but a text review of the finale, which felt ultra anti climactic.…

positive · AI labelView post →<2 minute missions 5 minute cutscenes Talk to every NPCs Repeat Why upgrade your weapons? Why use any of the systems when everything is instantly dead and missions are over bevore you even get to do anything? This is less Monster Hunter and more Devil May Cry, but only against 2 waves per missions.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →God Eater 3 (GE3) is the latest installment in the God Eater series, known for its monster-hunting gameplay. It is an action RPG that features shorter and faster paced combat against monsters known as Aragami, which actually makes it ideal for brief co-op sessions. The game runs smoothly on Steam Deck without changing the settings. The character designs, anime-style cutscenes and in-game combat animations contribute to its overall aesthetic appeal. While it offers an engaging co-op gameplay…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I enjoyed this game quite a bit. It's a very anime-esque, story driven game. This is your typical monster hunting kind of game and I'd say this is a lite Monster Hunter (games I highly dislike), so if I could get through it you'll have no issues with it. You have lots of customization, different weapon play-styles. You can tackle most of the missions with your AI allies, which are not bad, so you can solo this game easily if you don't have someone to play with. I didn't play the other GE…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Ok so I did some rethinking of what I said here because it feels needlessly mean. It does try a lot of cool things and the vibes are immaculate, it just felt held back by a game feel that I didn't love. Lot of the same problems I had with how God Eater 3 felt. Also dark souls level design this aint
negative · AI labelView post →Today, we're gonna be playing some God Eater 3 after work! While I *am* half tempted to just play from an already started game I have, it's been long enough since I've played I'm not sure I'll remember everything, so I'm probably just gonna start a Stream Specific playthrough.
neutral · AI labelView post →If u like monster hunter, u must try this game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun but feels short and incomplete, i still recommend it!! spamming Burst Arts is Fun but the building part got Nerf Hard like the god arcs drop max level 5 and the bullet customization limiting it by Ammo, is not the right solution if you ask me, that just lazy balancing Story and Characters still Good tho :3 the way they did the character story at the end kinda boring, character story in GE2 Rage Burst is better
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Since I had set low expectations for GE 3's story from the beginning, I wasn't very disappointed. Overall, I still found it very enjoyable to play.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →After you've played more MH Stories, what do you think about the battle system? I bounced hard off the demo, but I'm curious if I should give it another try. I remember it being just rock paper scissors. --- More **13 Sentinels**. I've done alle the story I could do without progressing the battles (~75%). By now, I have a good grasp on the story, I think, but I'm sure there a many more twists waiting in those last 25%. At about ~45% completion for the battles and compendium. Doing the story…

(Edit for disclaimer for the context of my review.) Ordinarily i would judge a game based completely off it's own merits outside of a comparison to another game but this game was specifically designed to be bandai namco's answer to monster hunter. Therefore i will be comparing it to monster hunter directly as the basis for my review. Allow me to explain. I love…

During missions my OLED Steam Deck was running the game at 90fps during game play and 60 in cutscenes. Runs perfectly well. If a fan of large monster hunting games it's a fun pickup.

I do not know why they have decided to switch the start and select button. Having to accidentally bring up the commands when I want to bring up the map/pause is something I have not gotten used to. It's not possible to swap it in the controls either. And not just those, but they have swapped the `getting up after…

I picked this game up on sale, honestly initially i didn't realize this was the same devs that made code vein, not sure if that would have swayed me or not since it's on sale, but I was not a fan of those games at all.
