Solo Leveling: ARISE OVERDRIVE

Not sure why I haven't seen more people mention this but the game is full of Gen AI art. From what I could tell anything that wasn't 3D modeled was just AI art. Whatever side of the fence you are on about using AI the fact that pretty much every image, if not EVERY image, For a $50 game that is pathetically lazy. It doesn't help that since the game itself is hit or miss. The gameplay is fun for the first bit but with how much you need to grind you would think they would've chosen a more in depth fight mechanic. Not just press buttons 1,2,3, repeat. It gets stale fast. Worst of all since it has released barely any content has been added. With major parts of the manga/anime just being, as of writing this, none existent in the game. From what I can tell there is even less then what's in the anime. I love Solo Leveling and have been a fan ever since the web comic days. To see such an amazing IP be used for what can only be considered a cash crab is heartbreaking. TL:DR at it's current state kind of a really bad game. Would not reccomend buying even on the deepest of sale

I´m a big fan of the webtoon and the series. The game is only for hadcore fans of the series, as a game itself it is way to repititive.

I've been playing Solo Leveling: ARISE OVERDRIVE for a while now, and honestly, I'm having a lot more fun than I expected. The combat feels smooth and satisfying, especially once you start chaining skills together. Pulling off perfect dodges, switching between hunters, and watching Jinwoo absolutely destroy enemies never gets old. The boss fights are also pretty enjoyable since they actually make you pay attention instead of just button mashing. Visually, the game looks great. The character models, animations, and skill effects really capture the feel of the anime and manhwa. Seeing iconic moments recreated in-game was a nice touch. Of course, it's not perfect. There are a few performance hiccups here and there, and some progression systems can feel a bit grindy. But if you're already a Solo Leveling fan, that's easy to overlook because the gameplay is genuinely entertaining. I also appreciate that the developers made this feel more like an action game than just another idle experience. It actually rewards learning enemy patterns and improving your gameplay. I am looking forward to play with more hunters and new DLCs

Good playing game, has a good story too following the manga. But they added Pay-to-play hunters as well as weapons which is just sad. Not unexpected from NetMarble but very disappointing. End game is also so incredibly grindy to get levels up, I have played around 35 hours and still am no where close to 100 or even level 50.

The game has so much potential to be a very good game but it needs more content, Examples like more stuff for hunters and more costumes for main some minior adds for the main character and hunters like extra skill for them would be nice . The story needs more to conclude. Personally I think it should have few more bosses and stages to some doungens.. The one thing that bugs me a lot is we have sets for the main character but they are not visible only the costumes are this is kinda akward to have main set items that can't be seen but hey Devs say it is for story Lore Accuracy.... And even if that is true then we need more costumes like we have way to many useless haircuts but people probably use one and the costumes are way to limited we need more options for the main character.. Also the game seems to be stripped down level progression for weapons after Unlocking S Rank there is nothing for endgame.. I would like having an SSR or fusing the way the normal online game works will not be bad thing otherwise the skill level progressin is so lame and becomes very repadative after fisrt play of the game. Give us some way to level weapons after end game either by fusing the craft to get a star or by advancing them to another stage... I've also noticed some bugs, for example in game dashing while attacking activates the dagers for whatever reason but why? What is the point into investing into an S Weapon only for the daggers to show up on dash on endfight end etc thats really a poor design we put the work into upgrading a ''S'' class weapon we should be able to see it pernamently! And then the main charcter after every telepot gate must say something cringe why we get it we continue ahead.. Like at some point devs must rethink some of the ideas and redo them as the game has massive potential and can be so much more but someone need to put the work for it... Otherwise amazing Comabt good looking visual skills if developers fix some of the issues id be happy to come back and change my negative for it otherwise would recomend people to wait for Phase 2 big update maybe then some things will be fixed...

Als Starken Tipp vorne Weg, wenn ihr es Spielen wollt: bei Jin-Hos Angriffstrupp könnt ihr einfach eure Uhrzeit/Datum anpassen vom PC selbst um nicht 6h im Spiel warten zu müssen! Gern geschehen weiter machen! Oh hi Hunter! Du warst in einem S-Rang Gate? D...d..du kannst Leveln? Außer dir hat niemand überlebt und das auf dem Schwierigkeitsgrad Leicht, weil dir solche Games nicht liegen? Moment... Aber leicht gibt es doch garnicht? Du spielst doch auf Normal.... Ohhhhhh du bist also ein E-Rang-Hunter bzw Leicht-S-Rang-Hunter. Pff du Witz. <=== Das bin ich! Ja in solchen Games und die Games sagen genau das über mich aus! Oh jaaaa das Game wird dir zeigen ob du für solche Spiele gemacht bist. Wer den Anime kennt wird spaß haben außer man erwartet genau zu 100% den Anime... dann sag ich nur: sry aber bitte Entwickel doch selbst solch ein Game, wenn du glaubst du schaffst das. Kack boon! ^^ Jedenfalls kommt das Spiel nahe an den Anime ran so 70-85%. Es wirkt wie ein Devil May Cry oder Monster Hunter. Nur teilweise echt Scheise schwer... was ich meine ist: Du startest das Game entwerder auf normal oder Hart... Schon bei Normal verkack ich gegen Igris und das Spiel sagt mir ganz liebevoll wie es ist und passend zum anime... hey ich hab dich ganz doll lieb... also hier du hast leicht freigeschaltet du kack noob... (netter diss). Danke Spiel. Auf leicht verkack ich trotzdem gegen Igris...nun... Masochistisch wie Ich nicht gedacht hätte zu sein habe ich einfach nur versucht die Story so schnell es geht durch zu ballern... das klappt null. Wer es schafft Herzlichen Glühstrumpf, also wenn man es mag 1h auf einen Boss rum zu hacken und zu sehen das die LP des Gegners nur minimalistisch runter geht und man es schafft wirklich nahezu perfekt jedem hit auszuweichen oder zu blocken oder zu parrieren (hier ablenken). ja entscheide dich für eines von den dreien was du tatsächlich Perfektionieren also jaaaa auch lvln musst.... Jedenfalls ist das game extrem Grindlastig... nach 71h bin ich auf lvl 52 und ich muss klar sagen nach igris kam bald wieder ein Boss, der wieder mich zur Weißglut brachte obwohl dieser lvl 35 ist... Das lvl ist hier teilweise egal in der Hauptstory. Ich frage mich wann ich Kapitel 9 endlich schaffe... Ja ich spiele auf leicht und ja ich bin wahrscheinlich der mit ABSTAND Schlechteste Spieler in diesem Genre weswegen ich auch nie Monster Hunter wirklich spielen werde oder DMC oder DarkSouls, weil ich so aggressiv werde das ich am Liebsten bei den Entwicklern Pieeep, und pieeeep und piep piep mit pieep und wieder piep dann am hals pieeep mit viel lieblichen pieeep und alles ohne Gleitgel. Wer sowas sucht und geil findet bitte mach dein ding, es ist trotzdem ein schönes game. Es kann ja auch keiner was dafür das ich so mega scheise darin bin und mich das frustet. Was ich aber schlimmer finde ist das es einen Bug gibt wo die Bossleiste keinen Schaden mehr bekommt... Warum auch immer das seeehr selten mal passiert ist mir schleierhaft da hilft meist nur Restart. Ich hoffe ihr habt wenigstens spaß am Spiel, ich fruste mich durch, weil ich meinen Mittelfinger auf dem Game da lassen will. Vllt liegt es auch am Assassinen Weg den ich gegangen bin der angeblich bei leicht trotzdem sehr schwer sein soll aber gut. Das game bockt sehr wenn man sich darauf einlässt das man nicht der krasseste sein wird nur weil man lvln kann. Sammeln Sammeln Sammeln und Equipen nicht nur dich auch die anderen Hunter und diese auch lvln, usw... Es gibt viel zu tun und du hast nie Gold! Na dann S-Rang-Hunter viel erfolg! Ich Fruste mich durch bei Kapitel 9 Kagalgan oder wie der hieß... xD

Dont't buy if you like me, dislike being forced to play "Alternative chars" mid game. The game forces you to play multiple different chars, that level up and require there own item sets. the game requires a lot of farming which is kind of nice, but once you realize that you are forced to play specific parts of the game as an entirely different char, with different setup, different weapon, skill, stats. you quickly realize that this is not a game about solo leveling. its playing the solo leveling anime. If you want that, and love grinding get the game on discount, IMO its not worth the full price regardless. What kills the game especially "For Me" is the fact that like SAO you are forced to play specific content that diverge heavily from the main game theme; This is not side missions or extra content. but forced as part of main content though it is clearly side content.

When I saw this game I was fascinated and decided to buy it right away. The game looks super polished and more fluid than the mobile counterpart. That being said, it did feel exactly like that; combat is amazing and really fluid, builds are versatile, Shadows can be partially hidden so you don't lag if you computer isn't good or you prefer it that way and the hunters are extremely fun to play too. However, the game is full of flaws;- 1- The game is extermely glichy when it comes to online play. Simplest thing is that if you run any content with a leaderboard and you play with a friend, whoever is the host will get slightly faster clear speed and that gets posted on the leaderboard. Some deflects stagger bosses if timed correctly and this completely fails in co-op. Releasing your ultimate makes you invulnerable but guess what, if you aren't the host in co-op, you won't be invulnerable...and the list goes on. A lot of these bugs have already been reported on the Discord server in hopes for a fix but the net code for the game is just extremely bad I guess. 2- Most of the weapon trees aren't really made equally powerful in the end game and this leaves the end game exclusive to a couple or three weapons at best if you want to be effecient. 3-No content is really being pushed for the game and as you see when it does, it comes out as a complete flop. 4- All the players who bought this just didn't want the gacha game we have on mobile. Instead we are getting content locked behind paywall. It isn't really expensive at all but the concept of disrespecting the playerbase with such move is just not fun at all. I loved this game much more than the mobile game for the gameplay but I can safely recommend that if you are interested in playing this then just play the mobile version of it (which has a PC launcher) and you will find more content, more generous devs and you will get constant updates. The team working on this version clearly has no idea what they are doing. I do no recommend this game anymore after waiting for 6 months+ just to get this joke.
