Luckily, you’re in for a treat at first with the gameplay of Anthem. We’ve been here before and it’s nothing new.
Once again, this harks back to the aforementioned comparison of another online-multiplayer action-RPG – Destiny. It’s a been-told tale of an evil faction that wants control of an energy source that has untold amounts of power. Their performances are quite compelling, but the story that surrounds them is unfortunately cookie-cutter. Along the way, you’ll meet charismatic characters such as the veteran freelancer Haluk or Faye. Choices are what make you invest into BioWare stories so deeply, but Anthem doesn’t go down that route. Part of this is due to the fact that there is a lack of choices that alter the course of the narrative. For a game designed by a legendary studio known for their epic tales, Anthem will fall short of capturing your mind and heart. Now that we have a good understanding of the setting, we can dive into the story - or lack thereof. These advanced technological relics are what hold the power of the Anthem of Creation, which is this magical energy that humanity understands very little of. As you play through the story missions, you’ll learn that your main antagonists are the Dominion, an authoritarian faction that is seeking Shaper relics. You play as one of the rookie freelancers who joins a team of veteran freelancers.
