Add 26h from the beta.

Why would you ever do a beta AND CHANGE NONE OF THE PROBLEMS IT HAD?
Nothing "Classic" about it, everything good changed and everything bad kept.
There are only two game modes, armor cant be bought with game currency(GP), you cant quickswitch characters, turned off chat still pings, the menu is somehow worse than it was 10+ years ago, and so on.
Yet, some of the worst parts of the game stayed for some reason. Limited PER CHARACTER inventory? When i now DEPEND on drops? Really? Guess i need a total of 20 slots for Ruby Dust alone on EVERY CHARACTER right? ♥♥♥♥ off.

I can't just ignore the monetization problem too. Cash gear better than regular gear, ok. Cash cosmetic gear, ok. Paid revives, paid character slots, paid inventory, GACHA. No, just stop. Stop trying to wring out money from nostalgia. At least work for it and deliver a decent product.

From what i played, i can't recommend the game AT ALL. You're more likely to be disappointed than relive happy times. The company DOES NOT CARE about you or the game.

Quick review: 10/10. Beautiful, well written, unique and a must play.

Quick review: 9/10. It's free, so try it. If you manage to get past the early game, you're sure to have fun.





I thought this game was bad.
I thought this would be just a generic ninja-ish shooter.
I was wrong.

Warframe is unique. Very unique.
This game has space and calm only if you actively try to not do stuff.
When you get in a mission, you're already in the action and everything is fast.
But even if you think this is just some parkour simulator, you're only half right.
Because this game is incredibly fun, has a lot to explore and more is being added every couple of days or weeks.

Oh did you hear or read that it's grindy? Again, you're only half right.
If you're familiar with Monster Hunter and other similar games, you'll know what i'm talking about:
The grind is the game. Getting, building and trying new stuff IS the fun.
So yeah, it's grindy. Overly grindy? In no way.

You can get everything in the game for free. YES, EVERYTHING.
Buying the ingame premium currency, Platinum, does indeed help, but it's not necessary.
If you do try and enjoy the game, you might want to buy some plat to help the devs and speed up a little the start of your game.
Or you know, get some cool and flashy cosmetics. They look great, i can recommend.
You can trade with other players for their Platinum, so even a free player can get all of the above.

The missions are usually quick and objective-focused:
Get in. Do your objective. Get out.
Some will be done in a few minutes.
But later, will might want to farm an endless survival for an hour or two.
So the time-consuming factor depends a lot. You might play 30min, 1h or even 6h per day and get satisfied.

Nice to note that the community is far more accepting, respectful and helpful than most games.
The developers also show great care for the game and try not only to keep it fresh and exciting, but actively try to make the players happy with those choices.

Warframe has bad sides? Yes, sadly.
The new player experience could definitely be better.
The game won't hold your hand and tell you specifically what to do, which might be a plus in some cases, but it also somewhat leaves you wondering "what do i do now?".
Also, trading for Platinum early in the game when you're still getting started sucks a reasonable amount.
If you manage to survive these early problems, you can be sure you'll have fun. And that's worth it.

Unique weapon. Won't find anything like it in the game.
Surprisingly good for a fanservice weapon. Can see use even in Inferno difficulty, provided it's used properly.

I think it's possibly the best dlc item. Definitely worth it, and I'm not even considering the fun you'll have with it.

Unique weapon. Won't find anything like it in the game.
This is actually pretty good and can really help in some missions. But only in the early stages or in low difficulties.

I think it's worth it for being unique and decent.

Not unique. There's a better version that you can unlock normally.
Decent weapon for underground, but only if you're playing on lower difficulties or in early levels.

I can't recommend this, having a free weapon that's exactly the same but with better numbers.

Not unique. There's a better version that you can unlock normally.
Not specially good, but can be very useful in early stages or low difficulties.

Unique weapon. Won't find anything like it in the game.
Kinda bad, but can be useful in the early stages or in low difficulties.

I think it's worth it for being unique.

This game is horrible.
It's bad and makes you feel bad.
Do not play it. It will ruin your day.
The game by itself is great, but you probably do not want to play it, believe me.
If i needed to put everything i just witnessed in one word, it would be...
PAINFUL.


Not pun intended. The title is there for a reason.
