dude oh my god how did i forget all about this game. back in like middle school when i think i was the most into attack on titan i had been i would be on this game probably every day after school. i remember i would have my friend over and we would take turns playing and listen to like attack on titan opening 1 10 hours long mix in the background. i remember going into public lobbies where people would like hack the game or some shit and they would be playing on unreleased maps and have characters with guns way way before s3 of aot had even come out. this is just one of those games where i look back on it so fondly because of how fun it was to play and because of how into aot i was at the time, also the fact it was very mechanically rewarding to play and took a lot of time to learn. i remember first playing the game after watching people on youtube play it and when i tried myself i couldn't get titan kills for myself and basically just acted as titan bait for other people. then i think about the natural progression of getting better at this game and learning to zip by titans and charge up a slice and seeing the game tell me i got a sick ass kill, it felt so good to do.

this game also just makes me think about being a stupid kid and the time period of when i played it. what's crazy about this game is that i feel like so many other people ive talked to who were also into attack on titan when they were in middle school were also super into this game, it's like such a universal experience ive had talking to other aot fans who have been there since the anime first came out. it's just so crazy to me that a fan game could be as well made and insanely popular as this one and also the fact that nobody, not even myself, cares at all about any officially made aot games, probably because they just don't hold a candle to this one. say what you will about aot in the modern day now that the anime has finished and the story is over now, but this game was during a golden age that was undeniably such a good time to be an aot fan and i personally cant help but think back on this era affectionately.

This is quite literally the best fangame ive ever played, the 3d manuever gear is excellent to control and sometimes it got to the point where the actual licensed games Seemed like they were taking queues from Feng Lee's outing whenever they dropped. I cant believe its actually been TEN
TEN FUCKING
YEAAAAAAAAAAAARS
TEN YEARS!!!!!!! time marches on though.. I adore this game, i think overtime I was getting more annoyed with the lean into having more realistic proportions for the titans
the punk titans in particular got kind of annoying and the crawlers would cease in being arguably the scariest thing in the game to deal with
and then you had little glitches and such here and there where the colossal titan spawning in would make it so your ears would bleed,
how fucking UNFAIR DOING THE CAPTURE THE FLAG OBJECTIVES FELT THE FIRST TIME AROUND WHETHER YOU WERE THE TITAN OR THE PLAYER BC THE FEMALE TITAN WAS STILL ON THAT BULLSHIT
I got introduced to this through Etika too since he was playing this with his online friend group which... damn i just got chills because i noticed how none of them really appeared in any of the videos after that tht he put up to the channel.. which is a shame because even though nobody from my old friendgroup will be reading this review, the times we spent playing this are some of the most treasured in my life
