The anime follows the story of the game, so if you haven't played it yet go for it. The story is amazing.

definitely worth watching, the games story is amazing and seeing as how they said they'll implement multiple endings even better, also the anime is worth watching for the soundtrack alone best ost there is. you don't need any knowledge on the game either to get into the show.

I also didn't play the game. I guess it's too early to say if this show is worth watching or not. Looking good for now.

I really liked the story of the game. I think Yoko Taro will bless us with yet another masterpiece here.

For real, play the game before watching the anime. Too many magical moments in it that I don't think this anime will do justice

Very good so far and as a fan of the game, I can assure that it will only get better.
Especially since adaptations of video games are almost always bad, so this is an outlier.

the only thing I didn't like about the first episode was the CG....but that's the same with any anime, berserk scarred me!

The game itself is the best. However, I can’t tell if the anime will be up to the standards although the first episode looks promising and it literally matches the start of the game.

Haven't played the game but the anime looks great so far. Also, the CGI is overhated af, I mean it's definitely not the best but definitely not the worst either.

First episode was good enough but not enough material is out yet to say if it’s worth a watch for sure.

If you have the means to play the game (PS4, Xbox One, PC, Switch) then it will always be worth playing no matter how the anime adaptation turns out. Just know that the anime will obviously spoil the game for you if you decide to play it later. This isn’t like Cyberpunk: Edgerunners that has its own self-contained story.

As someone who's played the game I'd say it's worth a watch.

imo, you should just go play the game instead, it’s better in any way.

If you think about playing the game, i would definitely start with the game first.
This anime will most likely hyperdense spoilers so allot of the 'magic' the game has will be dumbed down.
Ofc if you just want to watch the anime, go ahead. Currently it looks promising.
