My points system:
+ = good, ++ = really good, +++ = excellent
- = bad, -- = worse, --- = horrific

POSITIVES:

++ Breast Slider (good character creator).

+ Solid RPG leveling and "crafting" (weapon enhancing) system.

+++ STORY SPOILER: The moment where Itsuki becomes the villain and resets your game was really surprising, well done and delivered with a good pay off.

++ The Kirito story line is short but pretty similar to the anime.

+ Solid, but not particularly good gunplay.

+ The cutscenes look good.

+ There is a Waifu for everyone, even girls because you can create your own “pet”.

+ There are multiple endings.

NEGATIVES:

-- As so often with Bandai Namco games, the performance is really bad for what visuals are delivered, meaning with max settings and resolution 3840x2160 I had stable 60 fps within borderless windowed but to fix the bug with 2 Monitors I had to go to full screen and my fps dropped magically by 10 to 20fps. (My PC Setup is written below.)

--- I played through the whole game with keyboard controls, and you can believe me when I say oh god they are bad. First, if you have 2 monitors (within borderless windowed) you can glitch out of the game and have you character shoot uncontrolled with no intention of stopping, Second you press TAB to switch between your skills and gadgets, you press y to activate/deactivate the aim assist, 7 and 9 to rotate models p and o to zoom in and out when you want to look at them, 7 9 I and O or so to go up, down, left and right when you are looking at the map, your mouse is extremely fast while aiming and last but not least you can’t turn off the auto aiming which is made for the controller.

- Something between bad and meh graphics, the only really good thing about them is the art design of characters and some shots of the city, nothing really special though.

-- The Team AI is sometimes utter trash, sometimes they won't revive you (even if you prioritize healing and reviving) but rather ran into a new enemy.

--- Two enemy types which can kill you with one shot which you can't escape from because you need to get through that area to progress with the story. Enemy Type Spoilers: Those damn Optimus Prime Angels and that fu*-!ng final boss GM, hitting me every time with them cutscenes.

- The enemy design is pretty plain and simple, there are either humans (AI pvp players), mecha (robots duh) or other "lifeforms" ( scorpions, bees etc.) that means within the first 6 to 12 hours of the game, you will already have seen pretty much 85 to 95% of all enemies that exist.

-- The game is and gets really repetitive, sometimes I asked myself why I'm still playing only to find the answer: for the story, not for the gameplay.

- Pretty mediocre uninspiring story, which is basically (WARNING BASICALLY I'll SPOIL THE WHOLE PLOT): You are a newbie to a virtual reality shooter game (Gun Gale Online), because your long lost childhood friend has invited you to play with her to finally see you again. Surprise surprise! You got invited because you actually are REALLY good and lucky within all video games (which is mentioned from time to time again), so you get that "custom-special-house-pet-servant-AI" within your first dungeon raid, everybody envies you because it's really new and super rare, you make friends with pro players, later you become a pro player yourself, one of your friends betrays you, kills a friend of yours and all because of the typical Kayaba Akihoko "because duh moment" explanation. One thing though they really fitted the story well within the anime.

--- BANDAI SCAMCO Entertainment pre-order practises with “extra free content” this is insulting guys, I think you all will be able to agree with me on this one.

Conclusion:
I actually somewhat liked this game, sure it’s not great or not even really good but It’s no AAA quality and budget title and I somehow still enjoyed engaging with the other characters, anyway for a 50€ and/or $ price I wouldn’t recommend you buying Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet, because if you are not a hardcore SAO fan or an anime fan in general you will most likely think of it as wasted money. In a Steam Sale? (Let’s say around 15 to 25€ or $) Sure I’d recommend that more.
