Blood Bowl 3

Even though I'll never forgive myself for buying this game "early" to try the new rules, I try to play it. I really do. Every six months or so, I launch it again in hopes the devs realize how messy and overcharged the interface is, and how absurdly unreadable the contextual wheel is 80% of the time (the unavoidable result of countless tone on tone issues, design basics anyone ?). The display bugs/delays I experience on my 13600KF/4070 setup I can live with, but it's not exactly a plus, fixing it would be nice too (fun fact : all this and more was in the original reviews, like two and a half years ago). But every time, I end up rage quitting after 5 to 10 minutes OF SOLO PLAY trying to tame that freaking interface, because of something I missed or unwillingly clicked on. And please believe I have the love and patience, I'm onboard since Chaos League and must have around a thousand hours on the various iterations of the game. It took BB2 a very long time before being the faithful, enjoyable game it became, but in the end it did, and it was great. BB3 took so many early wrong turns that I seriously doubt it'll ever feel "finished", let alone "polished". Add to this the contemptible GW business model ("Never buy a BloodBowl game before the Legenday Edition", damn I should have listen to myself), and I'm out of nails for this coffin. Sorry Cyanide, I just pray you guys don't get to make BB4.

So Blood Bowl in general is fun. It's always fun to beat the hell out of another team and then charge downfield with a football. The team and unit variety is quite creative and unit upgrades are rewarding. Is this version any better than buying the first two games? Only if you want to play with a newer ruleset, and honestly, this one just seems to destroy the passing game outside of a few units and significantly lessens a lot of the fun, random nature of unit upgrades by giving you nearly complete control to min-max along a set path. Fortunately, they seem willing to adopt the upcoming even newer ruleset, which opens passing back up and makes picking up the ball less of an adventure. The commentary is limited and annoying. The AI isn't atrocious, but I'll grant that they never came close to scoring a touchdown against me in seven games, so it's not great. Even single player matches against the AI require you to be online and don't allow you to save your progress partway through and matches take the better part of an hour to play. The microtransactions are obviously bad. Any company selling custom currency and battle passes deserves to be repeatedly punched in the face. If they made extra teams available through the Steam store, I might eventually buy them on sale. I'm not buying their warpstone currency and honestly, most teams pretty much just have fast guys and punchy guys and develop down the same archetypes while gaining levels, so I don't feel left out in not being able to play with the additional models. I paid $12 for the game on sale and got my money's worth of enjoyment out of that.

This game is bad. The cost of this game is not the retail price!! To get everything you will need to spend way more. A lot of the gameplay (teams) are behind a paywall. This is a multiplier game. The single player AI is extermely easy. It is so bad it actually makes you a worse player. They have the license for BBowl and they are milking it for as much as possible. I would not recommend this to anyone except a hardcore fan of the BBowl tabletop game. This game is basically a console port with paywall content. You get the crappy consol graphics where you half the time can't see what is happening or who is who on the opposing team. You get the crappy consol UI, with an "action wheel" designed for a gamepad. You get server instability, don't be suprised if your game hangs or crashes. You get the crappy AI.

Cant recommend enough, great online community, fun yet challenging to play. Blood bowl has always been unique and with all the updates since initial release has blossomed. Never a dull moment in this game.

This game is the best worst game. It's a fun, deep, tinker-heavy long-play experience that culminates with the highest highs and the lowest lows, as a 1d6 roll can doom your whole endeavor. As long as you go in with your expectations in the right place, you'll have a lot of fun. Start a league with your 6 nerdiest friends who are capable of not blowing up when they lose five times in a row.

I was super excited to play BB3, sadly the game is just not ready. Its overpriced, low populated (no wonder) and the UI is terrible. I think BB2 is just better and BB3 active harms the community, because it splits the players between the two games.

A horrible interface combined with inadequate time limits for turns make this a stressful and fun free implementation of an amazingly fun board game. Much worse than Blood Bowl 2.

Quiero que me guste, me esfuerzo, pero no
