Loved this game when it was on PS, still love it

.hack..G.U. Last Recode is a fun and interesting game. The art style is nice and the game is rich in story. I enjoy the interactions with each characters and the MMO feel that this game brings. Even through this game is a single-player game, its world makes it feel like you are in a MMO in a since. The story is enjoyable and have some funny moments at times. The battles could be a little better but they are okay. Once you get later into the game you will be able to use more than one weapon but the combat is alright. Play the game for its story. It will take some time to beat but its fun to play.

The game is fun. The core gameplay loop is pretty simple but overall can be fun. The dungeons are randomly generated. However, the game is mostly story driven with a lot of text that builds the lore of the world, with the jist of the game that you are a person playing a VRMMORPG. As such, you spend time in the players computer answering emails, reading forums, browsing the news. It's all scripted of course, and the gameplay mostly for me offered a break in between long stretches of story. If you don't like story, the gameplay is not really going to make up for it, so play this game for the story.

Awesome ending, if you are not worried about high fps game with good story then this is a good buy especially those who missed out on when they were young!

A classic! one of the best RPG with an amazing story and great plots! Can't wait to replay the .hack original saga.

For whatever reason this game has the worst fps stuttering I've encountered in a game. Apparently it has something to do with NVIDIA users and it not seeing it as a game. So, if you have that and want to play around with settings and whatever have fun. If your a normal person that doesn't have time to fuck around with that shit, pass on this game.

Ugh, this game. Let me list the cons on my playthrough first, because though I'm feeling particularly generous, this isn't a 'good' game by most metrics. The bad: To say the gameplay loop is repetitive would be the understatement of the century. The same 10 or so dungeon types are used without variation for your entire playthrough. The story suffers from JRPG bloat on a massive scale. It's seriously the longest 91 hours I can remember playing. It just. Never. Ends. The bosses are all relatively similar. The anime melodrama is ridiculous, and Haseo is the definition of emo. I only decided to play the (comparatively brief) 4th installment because I wanted my waifu of choice in a final cut scene, and whatever obscure thing I needed to do, I didn't, and I ended up engaged to the 'villain'. What the actual ****... The combat...meh, nothing to write home about. And the constant need to log in and log out to check email within the game was incredibly tedious and time-consuming. Who the hell is this Tabby character that suddenly appears? Oh and did I mention that for the first entire section our hero is a total jerk? All of that said... The good: There's a nostalgic 2000's PS2 vibe here that's sort of undeniable. I enjoyed the attempt to make this feel like an early MMO, along with fan art and old school forums. The news and Online Jack anime segments helped to flesh out what was happening in the real world. And the characters despite the anime cliches are all basically winning (except for Haseo himself, but he improves over time), and the voice acting (on the Japanese side, I don't know about the English) is spot on. And its the rare game where I stuck with it to the end and maxed out my character, so that must say something. The Sakubo character is actually pretty interesting from a psychological perspective (no spoilers). The music goes pretty hard. If you take a break, this game is good at hand-holding you back into the story. I never felt lost. Oh, and on the lowest difficulty, it wasn't too hard. The verdict: This was a slog. There's no doubt about it. But in the end, I enjoyed finishing up my time in The World. If you're going to give it a shot, play it a couple quests at a time and take breaks. Savor it. Because trying to binge this will probably wreck you...
