A one-of-a-kind game. I really wanted to continue playing more... but due to a massive nerf to my favorite weapon, I was forced to quit. However, there are still players enjoying it in multiplayer. You might want to join a group (chat) and see if you can find some. 唯一無二のゲーム。もっとレッツ貢献！…したかったのですが、お気に入り武器の超絶弱体化によって、リタイアを余儀なくされてしまいました。とはいえ、まだマルチで遊んでいるプレイヤーはいます。グループ（チャット）に参加して探してみるのもいいかも知れません。 Steam Group: FREEDOM WARS フリーダムウォーズ https://steamcommunity.com/groups/freedomwars
Freedom Wars was originally a PS Vita game. I'm happy to support ports and remasters like this, so when I saw this was coming I decided to get it right away as it looked fun and I was between games at the time. In terms of gameplay the most obvious comparison would be God Eater but people also throw around comparisons to Monster Hunter and Toukiden. It's a single player focused game (with co-op and PvP modes) set in a post apocalyptic world where you are sent on missions to kill giant robotic creatures. There's a fun variety of weapons, and something called a Thorn which you can use to do things like latch onto the robots or pull them onto the ground. The story isn't anything terribly unique but it's fun and weird and has some of the usual anime tropes. There's also a decent amount of character customization. The remaster adds high-resolution textures, 4k resolution support, new difficulty settings, and an overhauled weapon crafting system. I personally have experienced no crashes or performance issues of any kind. I've had no bugs. It also works really well on Steam deck, which makes sense seeing as this was originally made for a handheld console. The only downside I have encountered is that I believe there are at least a couple songs missing from this release, likely due to licensing issues. The main one I have seen people mention is Na Na Na! Also, on a side note they made some fun little music videos for the game back in the day. You can watch them [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3693002440]HERE. This is a really fun game and I totally recommend it.
Very grindy monster hunter-esque like game. Very fun if you love Japanese themed things. Kids, it's not worth if you don't have a disposable income, spend your hard saved money elsewhere. Old dudes who wanted to relive the PS Vita days, this is our jam. Remaster Soul Sacrifice next PLEASE
There are two kinds of people who should play Freedom Wars: those who played the original over a decade ago and don't want to fish out their Vita for a second play-through, and those who have played every other hunting game worth playing and are desperate for something a little different. That's not to say Freedom Wars is BAD, it's not, but it's not GREAT either, and a lot of its value comes from the novelty of its setting (which disappears over time), and the very specific era it released in (when Monster Hunter was completely absent and competitors were ass). As a reference point, Freedom Wars is somewhat akin to God Eater (though a little less chuuni in tone, and a little less floaty). Combat focuses on using two weapons (usually a melee and ranged weapon) to clunkily grapple through the environment and dismember large enemies through button mashing prompts. It sounds reductive, and it is, but not nearly as much as you'd hope. There isn't much variety in the enemies you fight, or the maps you fight in - and when variety technically starts to appear, you're still approaching the fights the same way you always have and always will, so it amounts to a new coat of paint at best. What makes the game worthwhile is the setting. You exist in an oppressive post apocalyptic society that fights other equally awful societies in a fight for resources. Each society (called panopticons, which are effectively regional mega-prisons) constantly use giant robots to steal resources back and forth from each other, like metal scraps, ice cream, and math nerds. Narratively it's all played very straight, but mechanically it feels very tongue-in-cheek. As an example, you're labelled a "sinner" (a prisoner/ slave) that has a 1 million year prison sentence to work off, and without warning you can be penalized for all sorts of things (like sleeping sideways, walking too fast, talking to NPC's, etc) and you have to buy the right to do the simplest of tasks you'd otherwise take for granted. As you play, you replace the constant robotic wardens (intentionally voiced with shoddy TTS, not AI) with a large cast of surface-level characters, and replace the navigation of oppressive rules with a by-the-book mystery and themes. This means as you progress through the game (by buying privileges, learning more about the world, and streamlining repetitive combat), it's novelty falls to the wayside leaving a bland experience you may not have the heart to finish despite its short length. It's not worth $50. It might be worth $30 if you're someone who values novelty, doesn't value your time or money that much, and wants to have some fresh talking points to bring up with other videogame weirdos. I'm in the latter camp so I've enjoyed my time with it, but Freedom Wars is a relic out of time and not for everyone. There's a reason it was remade, a reason it has a cult following, a reason I've put the time and effort to re-experience it, and a reason it's flopped yet again a decade after its original release.
