Wuthering Waves Review

Wuthering Waves reviewed by Jess Reyes on PC, also available on iOS and Android.

Wuthering Waves’ combo-heavy action, quick movement, and enticing Echo collection enhance combat and exploration enough to let it respectably stand out from its competitors. The fights are polished and sophisticated, rewarding reactivity and optimal builds and teams. On top of that, the Echo equipment system ties your character progression into the environment in a way that encourages you to uncover every inch of the map, which can be satisfying despite the repetitive process of fighting overworld mobs. Unfortunately, the story is a bland, exposition-heavy slog, with dull writing and voice acting. So while the quests aren’t its main draw, Wuthering Waves is still worth looking into as a refreshing spin on the typical open-world gacha RPG.

very poor review that missed a lot of important points, if you want to watch a real review go watch any other review than this one.

This was extremely disonest and biased, u clearly didnt finish the story, ur basing the entire VA experience on the first few minutes of the game, just as u did with the story. U completely failed to talk about the gacha system and its significant improvement from its competitors, just like u failed to talk about multiple other systems that shine in this game to spin whatever narrative ur trying to spin. This review is a joke. It was a bunch of nonsense yapping with no points to be made.

this review is kinda bad
It's not comprehensive, focusses almost strictly on story based stuff which isn't the soul part of the game nor does it sound like you finished the full main story.

one note to the argument of terrible voice acting, there are some characters poorly voiced on english, yangyang, female main character, chixia to name a few. However there are other characters voiced very well too (scar, aalto, encore to name a few).
Regardless of the English voice acting, you can also mention the voice acting is really well done in other languages.

Imagine putting any value in a IGN review.

Dear IGN.. Pls don't let this guy do reviews anymore

[stefssj]

IGN should stop reviewing gatcha games

"Genshin Impact's story is one of its weaker points, packed full with anime cliches and convoluted magical jargon and it meanders from one amusing misadventure to another with little cohesion. Thankfully, none of that is a dealbreaker!" - IGN's Genshin story review in which they gave it 9/10.

For comparison, the same points were brought up in Wuthering Waves' story review, just 18 times longer, in which they gave the game 7/10. Totally unbiased! 😇

The combat carries this game hard. It's just so fun. And with the new characters in the next update opening up aerial combat further, it's only gonna get better.

Sweet Hoyo Inc detected. IGN dropping the ball again.

[KingTophTV]

Very bad and unprofessional review.

Not comprehensive, obviously skipped a lot of parts, did not mention other parts of the game like forgery, tactical hologram, tower of adversity, etc.

[MainDoorFrames]
