    Probably the most thorough and fair review of this game I've heard yet. Most of them have been surface reviews from a person who didn't take the time to learn the advance mechanics that set this game apart. Bravo

    what a great concept of having hand to hand sword battles instead of guns, which engages the player more in a battle royal fashion, wonderful!

    It's surprising that Naraka has such a high rating and popularity. It also ranked 7th in concurrent users on Steam.
    Most of all, close combat is fun.

    Not to detract from the work the developers have put in, but battle royale loops are the most glaring and loops lead to dull gameplay over more than a few sessions imo. There's obviously a platform to expand within those types of games so the loop is more rewarding and can be blurred smoothly into less noticeable ones. Fortnite is amazing the first two seasons you play then it's just repetition that's unavoidable to notice. Basically, it's time developers get more creative than what we're seeing here, to advance the genre.

    I'm sorry, in the first 20 seconds they compared the combat to Soul Caliber.
    No way.

    Hunters arena had better combat than this and it was also a battle royale. Sadly it fell off. Hopefully this doesn't

    This game won't survive as a battle royale only. If it got a story mode and a 1v1 mode to really grind through the combat, even more people would look into it.

      You have rank solos, bloodbath and more on the working. The game is ok. They will have more people if it was f2p no b2p.

    Such a shame to have this quality wasted on a Battle Royale.
