Utilizing Valve's new Early Access feature, Archeblade from Codebrush Games has opened its doors to players on Steam. Early Access is Steam's way for developers to release their games to the public before the product is finalized. Usually this means purchasing the game first, but since Archeblade is Free-to-Play it merely means players can begin progressing through open beta without fear of an account wipe.

CodeBrush CEO, S.B. Jin has stated "there is a lot more to implement" in Archeblade citing new characters, maps and game modes all in the works. Aside from some balance issues I experienced during the game's closed beta, there was a lot to like about ArcheBlade. What are your impressions of it?

Obviously I like this game, which is attractive to me like Age of Wushu. I can build up my own world in the game freely.

this game is just pointles there is nothing to play for, heroes unlocks only for real $, no skill cap that you could get better at, if some one starts punshing you most likely you will die.

If you're complaining, it hasn't come into full open beta yet. It's barely in Early Access. Not everything is finished. I have a good time playing, just waiting for the rest of graphic options to open up.

at first I thought this game was going to be MMORPG, turns out it's just a Brawler type game (PvP)

And yea, balance is out of wack... many players are playing range characters now because they tend to win more, especially since you can easily dodge melee attacks WHILE still able to own the melee attacker with your range attacks (not to mention most range attacks are 180~360, so you can randomly shoot and still kill targets)

A decent light-weight brawler. It's good fun with a very high skill ceiling... given that you dont lagg, which seems to be a problem even with local servers.

Tried off and on today to get into a room with no success. I'm either "too late" or it gets filled and I get the infinite circle crap. I've about given up on it. I played during the alpha and stuff and it was fun but hell if I'm able to get into a damn room now.

another pvp game... nuff said.

it will go the way of Fury and the other full pvp games.

there are VERY few full pvp players and the ones that are in existance have already found their favorite pvp games and aren't looking to start over.

It's the PVE crowd that looks for new things because there are only so many times you can level to the end of a game thats a clone of every other game before you want more.

i agree that graphics do not make the game but the WoW and CoD clones part made that statement void. WoW was an EQ clone and CoD was not the first arcade shooter.(ill be flamed forsaying that not being the point of your comment but still. When people even mention that, their point is void)

The game is preety fun, at first though, what I don't like is that there aren't any combos that require you to be skilled and there is no way to counter combo, so basically if the enemy gets you they will always have the upper hand on you. Also most of the ranged attacks are op, they deal the same amount of damage that normal attacks do so there is no reason to not use them. I got a 7 killstreak by only using my range abilities while letting my team mates fight, oh and btw that was the 3rd match I had ever played. The characters can only be bought with real money.The gameplay is fun overall but gets really repetitive, this is a game somebody would play for fun, not hardcore.
