Couldn't help but cringe every time he didn't devour after the kill for extra boss drops
☠️☠️😭
dude same😭 but i keep thinking to my self that he did it of camera
He also didn't realize he can transform the scythe for larger attacks
"I wonder how old we are at this point"
Its Anime, you are undoubtedly 16-18 years old. Obviously stronger and more capable than any experienced adult. As is tradition.
yeah but the guys are about 24-30 ish something. but yeah since most are discarded kids it's
safe to assume most of them are kids lol
Actually, all God Eaters are in similar levels,except if they show to be stronger. Lindow was an adult and was one of the strongest God Eater in the world.
If they look really mature, pretty high chance they are only 16 or so. If they look like babies, there’s some chance that they are 30+ years old, or even 100+
Anime.
Nha, they are just humans still.
For those that dont know a God Ark (weapone) is made from the Core of an aragami, so ITS ALIVE and would consume you if the brazalet dosnt dispense supresants regularly.
So its permanent, and very letal.
I laugh at you, because I know the truth. Hugo, the main NPC guy you play with is 20. You are seen to be similar age to him, with the possibility of being older or younger.
So the character's age is around 20, but could realistically be as high as something like 25, and granted, as low as 15, given the cutscene at the start when your avatar is a kid.
And God Eaters strength varies entirely on how their body responds to the Oracle Cells. It's called Oracle Cell Adaptation or something. Your character's is A Rank because power fantasy. You can assume everyone else in your group is C or B. Soma, who you run into later in the game, while I haven't checked his age yet, should around his 30s at least by now, and is easily one of the strongest God Eaters on the planet.
The setting is very science fiction. Very nicely written, actually.
To be specific, your character is an AGE, an Adaptive God Eater, which means you got more Oracle Cells pumped into you. Which means you have more superhuman power than standard God Eaters in Average.
Soma is a normal God Eater. And he's implied to he equal to you in strength.
The more you know.
Edit: Just want to mention this is the bare bones of it. I'd be writing out a semi novel to explain it all.
glad you enjoyed it. i really hope there will be a godeater 4 with an upgrade to the overall flow of combat like what happend with world and while i feel god eater 3 was a good step . there could be more.
Don't know why people suddenly think GE4 would come out any time soon if at all, I mean talking realistically the time it took for GE3 to come out in between 2 was a few years, and Rage Burst isn't even the original version, it's the imported version that added another segment to the story of the original 2 that was only realeased in Japan for maybe a year before Rage be burst came out
@@erikgardner4777 Yeah, the Burst update/expansion is more likely and needed before we just move onto the next game.
@@ZEROthefirst Definitely. The way God Eater 3's Story 'ended' after the 2.51 update's stuff was pretty weak. I'm holding out hope for a Burst DLC to come out eventually.
Failing that, I don't mind buying the game again since it was really fun regardless.
HEEEEYYY! You played the game!
Okay, a few things to know:
1. The storyline actually changed a lot between 2 to 3! In the first and second games,
God Eaters are viewed more as soldiers fighting a war against the Aragami, the monsters you fight. Only in 3 did the change to prisoners being the God Eaters.
2. The biggest customization in the series is actually the BULLETS you can use! You can literally make ANYTHING with the system!
3. If I’m not mistaken, the same Dev team that made The God Eater series also made
Code Vein. That’s why their art style and gameplay are very similar!
With that being said, hope you, Josh and Cotton enjoy this game!! And maybe I should start playing it. I own Eater 3, but haven’t been able to play it.
Idk if you played CV but its more than just the art style thats the same.
@@jasonleejames_official I actually playing CV right now! It’s how I noticed that it’s made by the same team of GE!
@@gamerkingdom1442 You'll be pleasantly surprised if you dig deep enough in the game lore. Some cool easter eggs and plot points. Happy Hunting!
@@jasonleejames_official OOOHHH! Nice! Thanks for the heads up!
@@gamerkingdom1442 Yeah you'll notice some *shocking* similarities if you go far enough in the game.
Trust me this really bad pun will make sense, but I'll stop there, don't wanna spoil
Solo hunting is indeed viable if you want a bigger challenge. Especially later in the game.
solo hunting crimson ashlands be like::
We as a community need more takes on what a boss fight game could be, Capcom's Monster Hunter need more competitors for our own good.
I wish Dauntless was a better game. It's not bad, but it's not great either... It's just lacking something, and I can't really put my finger on it
GE is a fun series and seeing that Code Vein is in a shared universe gives me hope for a cross over game. But what GE lacks in challenge due to your character being extremely strong and just as mobile it makes up for in unique Aragami and weapons.
It can't be a shared universe. The timing doesn't match up. But it's clearly at least a deliberate callback. At most, maybe an alternate timeline. But "shared universe" is kind of misleading.
@@MattGallagherComposer there is literally an aragami in a code vein cutscene
wait hold up there’s another game within the God Eater world
holee phuc I need to play that shit
@@RadiantHealer did you play it
As someone that played since God Eater Burst
I can confirm that it's good
As someone who has played from burst to 3 (minus online and ResOPs) it is at the peak of it's series, I hope they publish 3 burst/4 soon
The game is okay, but they ruined Bullet Editor. The one thing that the series is awesome at.
@@RinkawaErion why what happened?
I’m with you
@@giancarreon3812 in burst you can easily make an overpower bullet a original bullet that you can make it your self although it's eat alot of stamina like bar.. But at that time we don't have any burst art/blood art.. Just a normal combo.. So they tune down the bullet editor to balance the game..
Personally, I think it hurts the game’s reputation being compared to Monster Hunter even tho the basics of the combat/gameplay is based on the Hunting RPG that MH pioneered. Aside from that, God Eater is a very different game.
It’s better to play the game expecting an Action JRPG with combat mechanics similar to MH than a “Monster Hunter-like game” because again you’ll just be disappointed if you play GE expecting MH.
TL;DR
Expect more of a Hack & Slash Action JRPG rather than Monster Hunter and you won’t feel (as) disappointed.
Watching that burst level 2 run out really hurt lol
Eh play these games enough, and you essentially can make it to the point you have burst from the moment you start a fight till the moment you end of
Just keep passing your bullets to your allies as well
that moment when you devour quite literally one frame too late and you see that huge 3 turn to a 1
feelsbadman
The godeaters went from soldiers to prisoners as the Aragami got worse, due to them having a increase in Oracle cells in their body if I remember correctly
Let's just say the world from ge 2 to 3 is just the world goes to shit. It's like the post post apocalypse.
@@peacechan4500 it's the opposite of JoJo, The German Science is the worst in the world.
I love this series for years and will continue to do so both god eater and monster hunter are both very good
I have some of this series including Gods Eater 3. It’s in that overall genre on fighting large monsters, but they did such a decent job creating completely different systems in it, so I feel it has come into its own, fairly well, where one could be in the specific mood to play this game.
ive played it for years, since GE2: Rage Burst. Its definitly a slow start but some later monsters can one shot you if your not careful. also every weapon, gun, and shield are all interchangeable, so you can choose based on your preferred style of play.
Surprise! I was also checking out God Eater this week, so I was happy to see so many request I check it out on the Dauntless video
Which game should I check out next? Let me know if you have a suggestion
Hello their
Toukiden on PS4.
Agreed. Toukiden 1 or 2
TOUKIDEN!! You GOTTA check out the Toukiden series, it's by Koei Tecmo's Omega Force..the guys who do the Dynasty Warriors games and in one of the games they had the wire mechanic before the clutch claw and WAY before the Wire Bug mechanic of Rise. You hunt Japanese demons to make weapons from their parts..it's pretty much KT's take on the MH series. Toukiden 2 came out on PS4 in March 2017 in the US and had the Demon Hand mechanic which is like the Clutch Claw in that you can latch onto monsters but there were more things in the world you could latch onto with it more like the Wire Bugs in Rise..World came out in 2018 worldwide but Toukiden 2 at least in Japan came out back in July 2016..so plenty of time for Capcom to take notes.
Are you going to eventually do stuff like the souls games or just stick with stuff that pretty much has to have almost all of the Monster Hunter formula?
Currently playing God Eater Resurrection and I'm loving it
Best game in the series
I think an incredibly huge facet was ignored here, perhaps not explored due to the 2 hour limit self implemented. The Bullet Customization. The Bullet Customization is AMAZING. Truly, if you don't look up guides for making bullet, it would be quite hard to make the same bullet as someone else, as the customization of bullets, while incredibly complex, the potential is actually quite limitless. It is imo better done in God Eater 2 Rage Burst, but 3 does it very well too. Anyone who plays this game, I would highly recommend playing with this feature of customizing bullets, as it's depth is truly one worth exploring in the game.
It's especially good in the older games where your custom bullets ran off of your OP and not a hard cap on how many you brought. In the right hands custom bullets can break the game something fierce.
better in GE2RB. so good that they have to remove blasters because of "meteor bullet" becoming instant NUKE button
honestly I never really bothered with the old meteor bullet cheese. I just liked blowing shit up, blast gun was fun as hell once you could make bullets not hit your friends. And I've never not felt satisfied popping a Borg's shield in a couple good shots.
well, disappointing that it's proven to be not a feature kept.
Yeah, they nerfed custom bullets big time. First, they had set ammo instead of running off of your OP, so they were unreliable. Second, they had a hard cap on how many you could bring, and it was stingy.
I mean, I've swapped from beams to radials recently and I'm getting way further for my buck outside of a few cases, it's just that I wish I could actually mess with those. So yeah, I hope they bring back Res/RB's bullet system in the future.
Game is fun its own way. Can easily be broken though.
Did someone say double element boost hammer with grand finale! (I’ve gotten 24K+ damage with my build.
Biting Edge literally shreds Aragami in glaive form.
Hoo boi dont get me started on them moon combos
There are some combos you can make where you just sit behind a monster and do shit tons of damage
Too bad this series is already dead but it really impressive that GE can survive this long considered it been around since PSP. most Monster Hunter Clone only have one or two games and they are gone while GE have 3.
I love GE, since I've played it since the PSP version back in 2010, and now I am gonna say, that they have gone a long way to get here
I've played all of the games in the God Eater series, and was shocked to learn that Code Vein had a connection to the same world. The games have way more focus on story than traditional monster hunter, which plays a big role in the pacing and difficulty of early game. It ramps up fast, and you'll be wishing your AI allies were stronger lol.
Code Vein was a prequel? of some sorts. But Code Vein was the only game that has reference to God Eater. It blew my mind when I found out the context. Also for everyone reading this comment. Both games are freakin good.
I LOVE this game. This was my Monster Hunter before Monster Hunter.
Mine too, since burst in psp
@@oscargalicia9191
And besides. I’m a fifth Gen Hunter.
@@AfroXaolin2023 me too, and waiting for rise on switch XD
Same kinda. Owned mh world in 2018 but didn't play it 2019 and played this after world after 20 hours of it.
@@oscargalicia9191
Rise looks beastly! I played the demo, and Magnamalo is HARD. I’ve barely slain monsters in 20 mins.
13:17 I think there are more kinds of those shots later in the story 😂
I remember playing this and platinuming it. Was a fun game, I ended up buying this when it was discounted after I passed Monster hunter world on my ps4. That game did help prepare me in the grind out your weapons types in prep for ge3. I played some of GE1R and was not to finish because the bosses were just sponges and it became a super grind fest. GE3 was much easier for me to play through and with better graphics it made it more fun for me. Was able to pass code vein as well during the start of the pandemic which was also a fun game. Hoping for a code vein 2 or GE4 soon
I have about 500 hours in GE3. God eater is a really great game and I’ve been playing it ever since it first came out, never got bored and I’m always pulled back into playing it.
Answering your thumbnail : YES
GE is pretty fun. Actually been playing it a lot waiting for MHR.
The best part about God Eater has to be the bullet recipe thing. You can make and design your own bullets or just copy them from the Japanese pros on the Internet. Good time.
It's a great game, I have it on the Switch, I love the customisation for each weapon, it's quite amazing.
lol I was wrong about this game it's great
Yes and No.
If God eater has the free roam concept like Monster Hunter instead a laid out path of story, it probably would be better, but its also the story that made it a fine game.
maybe if they include code vein group race
I don’t know if you realized it but every weapon has more than just x and y attacks that you can find in the database thing and learn more about them which gives every weapon a lot more depth with their unique abilities
i remember playing monster hunter freedom unite and gods eater burst (god eater 1) on my psp. now 13 years later watching your video and playing through monster hunter rise and god eater 3 on my nintendo switch. so awesome!
If you played God Eater Resurrection, you will truly know how broken the guns were in that game, especially with the OP short blade you get towards the end of the game.
You forgot to mention the ample plot of characters in your final review.
I do love me some plot. Although it must make the backstory suffer a bit.
11:01 thats the most monster hunter thing I've heard
Yes I love the God eater series it's something that I can't stop playing and loving
So what is the appeal of the God eater games? I've played GE res but dropped out because it felt like nothing had weight to it and GE 3 , gotta be honest , might drop it too since it still feels like my attacks have no impact and the weapon design looks bad . I'd love to hear some reasons why others play it tho .
I have the same feeling about god eater. I couldn't stand it for long, the monster hunter games feel much more organic, heavier and more natural. While god eater feels like it's made out of cheap plastic. This feeling really bugs me. Weird way to explain it maybe but yeah.
I have never played MH, so I don't know how weird the movement feels for you, probably just because you're not used to it. I played GE since GEB(burst on psp) and one of the main reason why I like GE is because of the main story, and from what I heard, MH doesn't have that (story), so if you're Into the story, just for fun, it should be fun
God Eater leans more towards anime fans. Its much for flashy, faster, and story focused than monster hunter is. These are the reasons I like it.
@@RajioOn Could you give a cookie crumb of the interesting bits of the story / which God eater games have the better story
It's unfortunate that within 2hrs he didn't realize he wasn't making full use of the scythe.
Good luck with your NPC's in later missions though.
Bullet crafting
I always end up spending more time crafting bullets than actually playing 😆
An important notice for those who want to try this game for it's online mode. There are very, very few concurrent online players of God Eater 3, so if you want to play online, you'll probably need some friends to play with.
Sad info because one and a half year later there was an active comunity, i want the game but if online game is almost dead maybe its time to look for other games
@@miguelangelirribarrensalas6260Playing with only NPC is still nice and doable, of course unless you want that multiplayer experiences
I really should give this game another chance. It was just that the premise and theme of the God Eater games were so depressing that I couldn't really handle it at the time.
3 has this extra edgy feeling to it. The older games still have a bit of that, but they're generally more hopeful and the main characters are actually treated like humans instead of them being one huge collective punching bag for assholes
I blame the studio change more than anything, 3 was developed mostly by Marvelous since Shift had their hands full making Code Vein
@@Mr._Sherwood One word: Phym
IMO God eater 3 is a great game and definitely a must buy when its on discount, not full price (got it for $12 on switch) I didn’t know anything about the God Eater lore or any of the old games and i still had an amazing time with God eater 3. I would say tho that watching the anime made me even more invested into the game.
I hope so I just bought it on switch for about 9 bucks lmao
lol. a similar sale is the only reason I'm considering it right now. thanks for your comment
I was looking into this. Glad you did a video, so now I can have a better grasp on if I want to purchase it or not
The problem with the companions is that they always operate at the same strength. They don't really get stronger and therefore are already at a pretty high base power in the early game. The difficulty in GE usually comes with the lategame content.
Probably one of the best entry points into the Monster hunting genre, more simple than MH but provides a great experience, less of a grind and more fast paced action, a good place to start if you're having trouble getting into World or Rise
"...the characters are far from heroic."
man, I miss the days when we God Eaters were the heroes /slap'd
God Eater Burst was my first monster hunting game and I completely fell in love with the series after that so I'm glad you enjoyed it as well!
Fantastic games, been playing them since the very first one which was all bout the bite move having a quick charge lvl 3. 2 was the start of alot of the hunter art/blood art styles, 3 did it but made it better since this are 3rd generation god eater hunters. first gen hunters where pretty basic but op. All of them are slow starts just like old monster hunter games where you its like go get 2 rawr meat and cook and go get 5 herbs ect, mostly to intro you to how small monsters act, but soon enough you will fighting baddies that are faster and stronger and just hit so much harder, and fighting with mutli monsters on the map. Its hella great
Is definitely one game I’ve wanted to play and never thought of it as a Monster Hunter type game but now just want to play it even more.
Yes, God eater recognition!
Yup
I really loved this game, loved the customization, and the anime design.
One thing that bothered me is the poor online service though. Its so hard to find a match. And once you finish the story there's not really much to do.
God Eater..sounds familiar.
You're profile pic is smexy.
@@b52incoming.48 thank you akantor god of sound
Huh
I just got GE2 rage burst last month
And I haven't seen any GE3 content on CZcams for 2 years
it starts with god eater 3, Bandai Namco starts releasing game that looks alike but play differently because if it ain't broke, don't fix it..cant wait to play Scarlet Nexus next!
It's on sale right now 75% off on playstation store.
Next installment or update, I want them to bring back gauntlet weapon ( in previous interview, they were planned but had to be scrapped).
I pick it on sale and i just missing the multiplayer experience. Such a enjoyning game. To diferent to monster hunter, yeah sure its about hunt monsters, break parts, farm materials, exploit weaknes spots and elements...so is mostly a mh clone, but the mechanics and playstile is much diferent.
I already love both games and defently pick GE4 if it even happend on day 1 to experience it with more people.
PD\ If anyone knows a active comunity in switch, like a discord or something, pls let me know.
God Eater is pretty cool and flashy. But It's not "deep", there's just alot going on.
The combat is absolutely amazing. The weapons are cool looking and fluid too.
7/10 MINIMUM
8/10 personally
21:36 that's kinda how I feel about the buddies in rise. Atleast in the demo.. they seem to do a lot of damage and the amount of times I was setting up to do a really cool kill ending with mizu and it suddenly ended cuz my dog beat the shit out of it is crazy.
I think you're meant to act more as support while your monsties do the real damage.
@@thelonemask lol it feels that way sometimes
Guard points are op fun fact
Especially against devour attacks.
Solo hunting is a thing in this game but for the harder missions it's best to do as a group. I've come completed new game and new game+🦊
The perfect guards nullify all damage n has s after it, it staggers certain attacks on special aragamis :D
The boss lady is worth the purchase alone.
As an avid God Eater fan, I wish the anime would be extended and continued into the GE 2/3 story arcs
If you liked hearing how happy he got when he figured out that CodeVein is a far future sequel to God Eater, nobody tell him that Ghost in the Shell started out as a Blade Runner fanfic.
My 7 year old loves this game and does not ask for help every 20mins it’s on sale eshop 11$
Since the PSP days, Freedom Unite, GE: Burst and Wipeout Pure/Pulse were my life. I felt like GE3 was a lot easier but I enjoyed it. Resurrection is my favourite. Really good series overall. Maybe someone said it, but the scythe has a cool combo, you can extend the schythe with R + square and then, triangle, when it hits the terrain, press R + Square again (I think) and you actually do a cool move.
Theres one more moveset by Holding down the light attack button with R1
Dam, that's some really nice plot...
I personally liked go2 the most but all are good.
Also as a scythe user myself there is one particular machanic with the scythe you were not using but still good job.
Also the first two games have much more intriguing starts but again all are good.
I really hope we'll get a GE4 one day
I think we will get it and god eater 3 story make ur character goes to fenry now but I think in god eater 4 we will get new character I wonder who our character will be in god eater 4
Then wait for TGS
Good timing, I've been thinking about playing this
I've been seeing this game and really tempted to get it for a long time. If rise wasn't about to release, I'd probably try it.
God Eater is honestly my favorite series. The ost composer is probably my favorite composer, I love the story and characters, the enemy designs are awesome, I love the post apocalyptic feel, and the gameplay has so much variety.
I’ve played all god eater games
Hollow: Burst Arts are like hunter arts
Me:- mental facepalm- actually no there a weaker version of the Blood Arts from God Eater 2 and GE2 Rage Burst
Yh we get it youve played the older games but i got one question
"Did he ask???"
So apparently its now a sin to make comparisons?? Smfh

At least you can use three at a time instead of only being restricted to one.
GE3 changes a lot of things from the games before it. in GE on psp its basically the same throughout till GER, in the game, you can become broken when in end game, so when you spend hours grinding and become broken asf you actually feel like you earned it. In GER guns were really REALLY broken but again that was mostly because of the bullet editing, in GE2RB they nerfed guns, gameplay was about the same. The whole system and game were developed by SHIFT, now it did take some skill but at the same time your mostly spamming, if you wanted to test your metal you would fight something like crimson orochi. However in GE3 it takes all the good things about GER and GERB and throw it in the trash, the developer changed and it had some major system rework as skills and passives used to be maxed to 10, can only be maxed to 5 and you can put 2 lv5s to make 1 lv 10 which was stupid, along with the linking skills where you NEED 1 other person to activate skills that used to be in the game as a lv10 passive but isnt. . . Most of the useful skills like shield deployment speed and other really great skills were trashed, and custom bullets were limited. Granted GE3 does take a lot and I mean A LOT more skill then GER and GERB as your mostly using melee attacks and spamming arts, but at the same time I feel like its less fun in a way where I cant make certain builds because of the lack of skills and passives., sure someone who spends hours on end and who loves this game from the psp and now I can play it on my PC feels great n all but I wish SHIFT made it.
2:22 it's always the moon isn't it?
hey don't disrespect the objectively best waifu in the franchise
Great vid, u gave the game a fair chance and was unbias which is something many people struggle with. 1 tip I'll give for these videos is to maybe have someone like a guest on so they can give a few pointers, or mixture so first 2 hours solo and another 2 with a guest. This way it'll also show if the game is easy to understand to newcomers and also be a guide for some hidden things that 1 may learn later that can help newer plays 1 example being after u beat the monsters u should use your devour skill(quick or charged) to get materials as monster hunter craves.
Now my thoughts on God Eater...I love the series I played resurrection(a remaster for 1) 2 rage burst(which is god eater 2 with an extra arc and a new final boss) and god eater 3. 3 is quite a bit easier compared to resurrection and 2rb but 3 is still a blast to play. 3 is great for newcomers that never played monster hunter style games and I'll say resurrection is the best with 3 a close second.
God Eater isn't exactly monster hunter, its monster hunter and JRPGs baby.
I just watched the MH movie and thought they missed an opportunity to have a grenade type slinger ammo in the unique Artimis quest for MH World. Would have made the quest a bit more exciting if you could find a crashed humvee, loot it and get a grenade item that acts like sonic bombs do, you select it from the item wheel and can launch it at the Rathalos.
i like God eater. Been playing it alongside Monster Hunter since it came out, mainly because it has an actual story, which MH doesn't have, and back then i really LOVE them (also bullet editor is the greatest feature ever in a video game). the 2nd one has a good story but a lot of contents, while the 3rd has the best gameplay but eh story, mainly because 3 sets 20/30 years after 2 and the new world/characters isn't as interesting as the old ones.
and dont watch the anime. they butchered the story of the 1st game and i'm still a bit salty about that.
To put plainly, God Eater Burst is what SAVED Monster Hunter for me. I originally despised Monster Hunter, but it was only after playing the first entry that I finally understood how the series was meant to be played. Went back to Monster Hunter later and now it's my favorite game series. I owe God Eater.
Anyone still playing this?
God Eater is fun. The games take quite some time to get going though.
Yeah a lot imagine a crossover between the games.
I love God Eater so much I remember picking the first one (Burst, cause the original never made it state side.) up on a wime at the game store thinking it looked cool and I've never turned back.
Purple element is called "Divine".
Burst levels past 1 are given to you by other party members by them using their monster bullets from devours.
Highly recommend moving the block button in this game, feels like it was crowded out cuz of the block Dash that was added in this game.
While this game is good the second is still my personal favorite.
God Eater Fan here, just wanted to make a few clarifications/note some things both gone over and not gone over in the video for anyone interested.
Firstly, God Eater is way more Story and Character driven and focused.
God Eater 3 is the easiest GE game in my own opinion. 1 and 2 are harder but also don't have some of the QoL feature that make 3 enjoyable to play (such as its faster pace) however, a bit of difficulty is survival missions of which you do multiple hunts back to back without healing up or restoring items, with the exception of your NPC's abilities
Any melee weapon can be used with any ranged weapon and any shield type
It was skipped over but bullet customization is a thing. You can go very in depth customizing bullets which leads to OP bullets. So much so they removed a gun type between GE2 and 3 because of it
Link Rounds are obtained from devouring and can either be used to fire a moderately powerful shot or give your allies burst. It also levels them up from level 1 to 2, and 2 to 3
Speaking of burst, burst enhances damage, allows you to double jump, and allows you to use burst arts in GE3
Not shown but every weapon has more to their moveset, for example the Scythe has an extended reach combo sequence than can be done that consumes stamina for each swing
Also devouring a monster is GE's equivalent of carving, but only needs to be done once
Engage is exclusive to GE3 and shares buffs between party members
Also exclusive to GE3 is the dive mechanic (the shield charge) which allows you to follow monsters easier and travel faster. Part of why the game is easier but also more enjoyable to play in my opinion, though GE2 is my personal favorite.
Overall, I really like God Eater, but that's probably my bias from playing it before I played Monster Hunter. I'd recommend people give it a try though. The demo for GE3 should still be on PC/Consoles if you want to give it a try and see how it feels.
If you use rb and heavy on scythe you get an infinite combo
Well yeah in this game you're the prisoner on the way to the suicide mission, but if you want to go back to the older version you are nobody become a special force (like a swat team that hunt giant creature) by matching your blood sample to the weapon and become a hero
Played this since God Eater 1 and is quite good fast paced MH. You can program your ammo which is I liked the most (combined all elements+homing+bomb). There’s a lot more features mid to later game. GE3 is the latest one. Toukiden is the ninja MH and was good as well.
I have this game and I've been waiting to play it. Seems like it'll be pretty fun, but I probably won't get into it too much with Rise coming soon.
i'm in the exact same boat. playing MHGU right now to pass the time til next week. God Eater seems interesting but it's hard to start this up knowing it's only a week til RISE!!!
Thank you for the video, really makes the game feel more tempting to get after being very back and forth with it for ages now
Btw in the vid description, first big paragraph starts off calling the game Dauntless not God Eater :P
I got this on switch this game is so much fun, I think I'll play this until monster hunter rise
Its actually super helpful to know that its better later, A lot of games I often find that a really bad early game just makes me never get to the good part because I stop playing, and then tell people the game sucks, and then they say 'oh well didn't you get to the good part 12 hours in' and I say 'no of course not the game is terrible why would I waste 12 hours on it' and... so on.
FACTS THIS JUST HAPPENED TO ME LOL
The purple star is divine damage
Having played the God Eater series, Yes it is absolutely possible to do missions solo, heck the qualification missions force solo play. I do agree early game is a bit awkward but its is also geared towards being new player friendly (ie. someone who has never played this kind of game before to ease them into it). This game also does have a grind that can be rather harsh as well especially when farming materials. Now this is of my opinion and my opinion alone but GE3 is the pinnacle of the series and 1&2 and their remastered counterparts tend to be lacking. All in all the god eater series is a fun set of games to play.
"This game also does have a grind that can be rather harsh" oh don't get me started on that! at least some materials can be exchanged for certain rare items but yeah, God Eater and Monster Hunter are very similar in that case!
Are you going to cover Toukiden 2 as well?
This is a really good game. Not as polished as MH World or smth, but still is a lot of fun. All the weapons I've tried are good so far: buster feels heavy and powerful monstrosity, long blade is an agile multi purpose tool, scythe can easily cover the pack of aragami and a heavy moon is just a pure freaking carnage
I sure am waiting for GE4
Idc what anybody says, god eater 3 is fun as hell. It doesn't have the longevity or depth of a game like monster hunter, but the controls are great and progression isnt bad.
I liked 3 but my favorite is still GE2: Rage Burst. Playing through 3, I couldn't help but miss my Aragami Devil Trigger you had in Rage Burst.
@@fadingghost9723 Blood Rage's music was the best.
I may be the only one but I am really hoping that we get a review of Toukiden 2. I love the series and loved the fast pace fighting style. It was the only think I actually liked more about it than monster hunter. The weapons all felt unique and the mitama spirits gave you your own play style
I'm unsure if you already found out already , but yeah you can solo hunt in the game if you want to, but it depends on the mission. I know most side mission that is not a story mission you can choose to hunt alone.
I played God Eater Burst once until the end game. As a "Monster hunter" like game, GE is really good imo. I like the story, and the weapon mechanic that can change from melee to ranged or shield mode.
The only thing that I don't like from GE is some of the monster (aragami) design sometimes feels too weird.
