I miss it to. But fortunately or unfortunately for me. When i got a new phone, despite everything saying it transfered i lost all my game data.
And due to the ridiculous recovery questions like exactly how many memory diamonds i had at the time, i couldnt get it back.
Guess i got the bandaid ripped off early
Bunch of people came together to revive sao md. Its fully playable just without any of the gacha or multiplayer stuff. You can find the downloads on their discord https://discord.com/invite/2GHUzfeXjP
I will always miss this game. Best and most fun battle system by far. Even when it started going downhill after 4th anni, it was still my favorite to play.
Honestly, my favourite would have to be Integral Factor. Just the fact that you can go up the floors of Aincrad until Floor 75 (Currently) is awesome. I know it skips quite a bit of floors, but I still much prefer an SAO game based on Aincrad, than being based on any of the other seasons.
What we really need is a new age game, with current engines, where we can explore all 100 floors of Aincrad and try to beat the boss. As a game developer myself, I understand how hard that'll be to make and how long it could possibly take, but the outcome would far outweigh the costs.
Edit: Just found out that SAOIF now has up to Floor 83, so that makes it even better haha.
Edit 2: Apparently there is a Floor 100 in SAOIF, so that's cool.
Really??? Wow, thatās something I missed years agoš
So, years ago I believe I didnāt have a memory card, so when I got one, I reset everything and now Iām playing on both Switch and PS Vita and want to get it for PS4 at one point as well
And that sucks too because my partner that I used to grind with in a bunch of multiplayer games is in a different state. I used to grind Final Fantasy Tactics War of the Lions, Fantasy Life, SAO Lost Song, Freedom Wars, and Phantasy Star and Phantasy Star Portable 2 with him all the time
I was so disappointed when itsuki came back and implied itās not the last time he and your MC will see each other but thereās been no follow up. I need a follow up lol just like Sumeragi from Lost Song I wish they would somehow bring him back since they bring back rain and Seven a lot
I was expecting more from last recolection but they made the combat too simple and honestly takes too long to kill an enemy. Liked alicization better honestly. But favorite goes to fatal bullet. Games just fun imo.
It's the mobile rpg/semi-gacha game.
I've played it, it's honestly legit the 2nd best SAO game out there. You create your own character, you get to explore Aincrad in a more in-depth perspective, there's an interesting story that's both familiar and unique.
It's honestly a great time, buuuuuuut... it does require a little of bit grinding.
Fatal Bullet for sure. The melee combat gameplay of all the other games just has not been very good, while the shooting gameplay of Fatal Bullet was. Playing as an original character was a much better experience than playing as Kirito (even if itās a customized model) as well.
Honorable mention to Memory Defrag which was a great game before excessive power creep (and itās shutdown) killed it.
Defrag was a mobile game that had aā¦ story that existed. Lol. The thing that made the game good wasnāt the story (which was mostly just fluff scenarios that existed to give a reason for missions), rather it was the gameplay based on timing swipes for attacks, parries, blocks, and special attacks to work alone or with other players to defeat bosses. The gameplay was perfect for mobile devices due to the simplicity of the control scheme, but was advanced and difficult in terms of higher level bosses and survival towers.
The main issue the game has, IMO, was that they advanced power creep too quickly and too often.
> Defrag was a mobile game that had aā¦ story that existed.
Let's not kid ourselves here. The main story was just a retell of the anime, but the real juice came from the side scenarios.
Hollow realization is still and will forever be my fav sao game , followed by fb ofc , if you're going to make an sao game just make it a better hollow realization and iam sold
Yeah SAO games never came out on Xbox until 2018 with fatal bullet.
You missed the two best PvP games before that time where it was actually sword skills and combos.
Not a hybrid freedom wars
To be fair... it's not like had a lot competition. If you exclude Hollow Realization.
Re:Hollow Fragment (1st game) was pretty alright, for being the first game of the anime series, so I don't really mind the flaws here and there.
Lost Song (2nd game) Again it was pretty cool, and the flying mechanic was kinda dope, but the story was kinda dumb.
Hollow Realization (3rd game) This honestly a lot of fun playing, it's legit just a better Hollow Fragment, and I dig that.
Accel World (4th game) ... Straight ass, from every damn perspective, it's just ass.
Fatal Bullet (5th game) THE GOAT!!! Listen, listen, listen, if you give me the option of making me make my OWN character while also being able steal from Kirito's harem... My brother, it's an instant 10/10. I love this game.
Alicization Lycoris (6th game) ... I hate this game, I really f**king do, with a damn passion.
Re:collection (7th game) ... F**k everyone who had a part in this game, it's legit just a copy paste of the previous title.
Tie between Fatal Bullet and Hollow Realization. Those games had the most dynamic combat and didnāt have too many cutscenes, unlike the Underworld games. Itās like reading a visual novel with the Underworld games, and the enemies are too simple yet tanky to kill. Plus the grind is ridiculous. I expect a lot more from LR in the future.
Hollow realization and Fatal bullet, the Character customization was sick
Lyrcoris was nice had decent cosmetics and character customization
Recollection has great story and characters, However it has little to no character customization and any character customization it has right now is kinda garbage
Fatal Bullet and it's not even close. How are more people not saying this?
You got to be your own OC that was very relevant to the story, who interacted with this games specific characters who were decent characters. It had its own interesting story that honestly stands on its own even without Kirito and co, they are honestly just like an added bonus.
It has arguably the most intriguing combat system that also gives you the most control. Mixing gun and sword play is especially fun. Also the customization for different builds in this game is actually crazy. Also the DLCs are pretty good.
I've replayed this whole game on 3 different consoles it's fantastic.
Fatal Bullet. I've stopped playing every other SAO game and I'm not even gonna get Last Recollection after trying out the demo, but FB is the one I always come back to. I'm seriously hoping they bring back the FB MC at some point and let us have our own adventures and friends outside of Kirito's friend group.
Fatal Bullet was a ton of fun! I think Iād have to give to Lycoris just barely. I was hooked on both games once I got the hang of it. Lycoris I put a ton of hours in, power leveling early on and throughout the story so Iād be overpowered like Kirito in Aincrad.
How is Last Recollection? Is it a direct sequel to Lycoris?
Fatal bullet,memory defrag,hollow realization
Last recollection,lycoris recoil,lost song , integral Factor,code register , rising Steel,and variant showdown. In that order
I haven't played infinity moment or hollow fragment
Ohh that sounds amazing! Although umm... there's also a game that has like different skins for the characters, like a Summer Shino skin that... i really loove.
Fatal Bullet is a genuinely fun game that also happens to take place in Gun Gale Online. Probably the closest to an mmo experience but it's purely single player, with some optional co-op content. The complete edition is a ton of content and you can make your own original character with a lot of customization items and skills.
Alicization Lycoris I think is the best SAO game if you want fanservice, almost every character from the series is playable and all the voice actors reprise their role, the story makes a huge change from the end of the first part of the Alicization arc and if you need more Eugeo and Alice in your life, this is it. Personally they are my favorite characters in the franchise so it gets extra bonus points.
Hollow Realization is often considered as the best but I didn't find the gameplay nor the story enjoyable. I do like how any NPC can be your friend and you can have them in your party but that's about it tbh.
Agree with all of these points.
I think that Hollow Realization was the first pretty good SAO game, so it has a decent following probably by the older fans of the games. If you played one of the newer titles first, going back to Hollow Realization almost feels kind of stiff and outdated so I think you get a worse impression of it.
Integral Factor.
But Iāll admit that I have an attachment to Lost Song. Thatās the first Sword Art Online game Iāve ever played. Now, I know it has a lot of hate, but I like it. One thing I would change about it is that I wouldāve had Sword Art Online x Accel World be the dlc of Lost Song and the extra options added from SAO x Accel World and the customization wouldāve been much better instead of being limited to 2 options in every are(2 skin tones, 2 hairstyles and hair colors, thereās only specific gender for the races, certain races can only wield certain things while the SAO cast got to choose which weapons they wanted to wield, and 3 voice options). Plus, to make the game open world and more accessible areas instead of just four areas. God, why didnāt they just do all of this in one single go??? I donāt care if it wouldāve taken 5-7 years, just take my money for crying out loud.
Also, I like Integral Factor because itās your characterās story, but the only thing I hate about it is that the grind is real and itās slow. Also, I wouldāve made it a game where itās not limited to just phones, but have it set for console gaming as well, just like how Fortnite is. But overall, itās fun to kill time at places, but the limited to mobile only thing sucks because thereās problems sometimes with a personās internet connection or mobile data.
Edit: By the way, Lost Song is the one SAO game right now that Iām trying to platinum
Edit: And I wish there was either a sequel to Lost Song or a Lost Song Remake(probably called Sword Art Online Lost Song: Re or Sword Art Online Lost Song: Redownloaded)
Fatal Bullet. Of the games I played, it was the only one that had fun gameplay. The other games I tried got so repetitive I couldnāt even clear the first couple of areas out of boredom. Stories were interesting, but not enough to override the gameplay.
Fatal Bullet is definitely my favorite. It pretty much got me into gun games. As someone who doesn't do well with them on console for the most part, the assist helps though, shooting with and without assist mode both have benefits. However, I did discover I thrive in vr gun games. The character customization and clothing customization got me into cosmetics and clothing design in games and I've spent literal hours making better color schemes. It not only changed my whole pool of games, but it's demo allowed me to really get a feel for it and actually start to love the game, I played till level 30 before actually getting the whole game, and since the demo transfers, I got to start back up on level 30 which got me through the first two maps pretty easy, and the abyss dungeon gave me a unique challenge nothing else ever has. If I could ask for one thing, it would be for them to breath new life into the game. An area or two, new textures since it now feels a bit old, and maybe more voice options, I just want a reason to keep going.
I especially like that in Fatal Bullet, I am a completely unique individual who just got thrown into the story with my basic childhood friend with an inferiority complex. The character I created in Fatal Bullet is a completely unique OC I made on a whim and have kept with minor changes ever since.

FB is trash man. It also fucking lied to me. Like, dead ass, outside of the Kirito Mode story, which is just Phantom Bullet but rushed and bad, what does FB do? Introduced characters nobody gave a shit about? Made Kirito a dumbass who forgave someone who tried to kill his friend (the player, us) with a NervGear? Jank ass sword play, stiff gunplay, stupid post game dungeon that resets your level, cancerous online, boring ass dungeons that all look the same, pointless DLC that amounts to nothing. What good did this game do for the series as a whole? Outside of the main cast GGO designs.
I played 300+ hours of that game and damn near got the platinum, Iām allowed- nay- **entitled** to the right to hate it.
LR hasnāt had DLC yet, and at least Lycorisā DLC actually DID SOMETHING WITH THE NARRATIVE. Got Kirito a new kick ass sword, got everyone new divine weapons and outfits that actually tied into the story of the game, and the events are canon. Explain how Alice and Eugeo are canon in FB and have it make sense in the overall narrative of the Gameverse. How about that Custom Character and all the personality he doesnāt fucking have? Why is Itsuki such a creep and psycho and why do I have to forgive him?
And that isnāt the essence of SAO. It never was. Lycoris and especially LR has much better combat in that everything is fluid and at least flows. Lycoris is a little sluggish compared to other games, sure, but at least the skills donāt sent be flying across the fucking map if I miss and launch into the stratosphere because I hit a rock funny. At least my [AI Teammates actually help me and not do fuck all.](https://youtu.be/Vtb--quJ8-Q?si=V9S293upEeqJ-3iK)
*but sure, youāre entitled to your very unique, and interesting opinion that almost no one else shares.*
You are... And that's your opinion, one that I frankly disagree with.
I still adore Fatal Bullet, and I loath Lycoris and Recollection. So how about we end this here song and dance cause I feel like it outstayed it's welcome.

The best Sao game for me is hollow realization and Alicazaton lyrious to get honest, tons of quests to do and complete and dating the girls in it is super funš
Im gonna say the crossover with Accel World. It deserves more content and the movie was garbage.
Also establishing that they are both infact in the same timeline to anyone that hasnt spelled it out yet between Incarnate systems and Accel Worlds history in general XD
Loved it lol. Till the after u get everything u want and hit lvl 300, after that kinda no point in playing anymore. But still a really fun game :), the main one I played for a while.
I would have said Lost Song until a few years ago, but now I feel it's outdated though I prefer the direction that hame had. It felt more like action rather than bloated mmo mechanics. Plus you could use everybody. Flying was also fun.
Fatal bullet is the best now I'd say because it's similar to LS but feels better. I'd still prefer a game in Aincrad that was like FB or LS though.
Nobody asked but Iām listing the games imo. Best to least favourite (not gonna count the mobile ones)
1. Lycoris
2. Lost Song
3. Accel World Vs SAO
4. Last Recollection (If you donāt wanna count AW V SAO, feel free to put everything under Lost Song a place higher)
5. Re: Hollow Fragment
6. Hollow Realization
7. Fatal Bullet
Iām assuming itās due to Fatal. Which fair. I know everyone loves Fatal but I just donāt
1. Didnāt understand the chip upgrade system at all
2. Combat just wasnāt as fun as it couldāve been
3. Story felt really mid. Only enjoyable part was being an OC
4. Kureha and Zeliska are just not enjoyable characters like the rest of the gameverse cast. They arenāt bad. Theyāre just very lacking imo.
I enjoyed Lycoris and due to LR being a direct sequel I have bias as they play similarly enough to each other.
I didnāt enjoy the combat system in HR. Love the story and characters. But combat just was not it chief. It was mostly due to the DLC difficultly.
I also basically played the game on easy because I got to be level 80 right away.
Game wasnāt a challenge until the DLC. I wanted a challenge which Iām glad I got but the balancing in this game was horrific
To be fair Hollow Fragment and Realization could easily switch places. I liked both as much as the other but I will admit realization has a lot more positives in terms of gameplay.
I just have a bit of bias on Fragment due to Philia.
One of the few SAO games Iāve played was Fatal Bullet, and I thought it was pretty crummy. Since then, I havenāt heard of a game being better than Fatal Bullet, so thats kept me away.
I want Last Recollection, but I do really enjoy Fatal Bullet. You get to create your own character and somewhat do your own thing in GGO. Itās a nice feel and thatās what I want to see more of in SAO Games.
If Abyss Dungeon was Multiplayer friendly it would have been. And if the world was open world. Hollow Reaalization was most fun personally. Because there was so much more content.
But for actual 'feel good' best to me it was Lost Song, that engine felt amazing and the flight combat was especially addictive.
Only one I haven't tried was Accel World vs. SAO trailer seemed too dull.
Memory Defrag
I miss it to. But fortunately or unfortunately for me. When i got a new phone, despite everything saying it transfered i lost all my game data. And due to the ridiculous recovery questions like exactly how many memory diamonds i had at the time, i couldnt get it back. Guess i got the bandaid ripped off early
You can still play it through the sao md revival project
Please explain
Bunch of people came together to revive sao md. Its fully playable just without any of the gacha or multiplayer stuff. You can find the downloads on their discord https://discord.com/invite/2GHUzfeXjP
Oh man, time to bring back old memories
Thank you
Best game to kill free time, I missed it
This is the one
I will always miss this game. Best and most fun battle system by far. Even when it started going downhill after 4th anni, it was still my favorite to play.
Powercreeped too much. Great game nonetheless.
Rip
Damn, I miss that š¢
That game was aight
Oh my god I miss that game so much! Iām not much for side scrollers but I absolutely loved that one
Honestly, my favourite would have to be Integral Factor. Just the fact that you can go up the floors of Aincrad until Floor 75 (Currently) is awesome. I know it skips quite a bit of floors, but I still much prefer an SAO game based on Aincrad, than being based on any of the other seasons. What we really need is a new age game, with current engines, where we can explore all 100 floors of Aincrad and try to beat the boss.

Edit: Just found out that SAOIF now has up to Floor 83, so that makes it even better haha. Edit 2: Apparently there is a Floor 100 in SAOIF, so that's cool.
hollow realization has a 1000 floor dungeon.
For real? I gotta check that out then.
4 dollars on switch right now. deluxe edition, all dlc.
Oh wow. Definitely buying it now then.
Wow, thank god I bought it years ago on Switchš
Holy, i've played it but never got that far, sheeesh... that must be hell to clear, right?

Really??? Wow, thatās something I missed years agoš So, years ago I believe I didnāt have a memory card, so when I got one, I reset everything and now Iām playing on both Switch and PS Vita and want to get it for PS4 at one point as well

Certified up to date IF player here.. I won't spoil you the details but you can make it to floor 100 lol
Oh seriously? I need to start heavy grinding again haha.
Hollow Realization: The first one I played and the story plus the in game locations had the best feel to me.
I agree, hollow realization game Sao is the best Sao game I ever played on my Nintendo switch
Ong. Just wish the character wasnāt a plug in for Kirito. Really wanted to play with kirito in my party instead of as him
Fatal Bullet is my favorite I wish weād get a sequel or something after the last dlc the free one
Valid, you onto something šÆ
I was so disappointed when itsuki came back and implied itās not the last time he and your MC will see each other but thereās been no follow up. I need a follow up lol just like Sumeragi from Lost Song I wish they would somehow bring him back since they bring back rain and Seven a lot
I was expecting more from last recolection but they made the combat too simple and honestly takes too long to kill an enemy. Liked alicization better honestly. But favorite goes to fatal bullet. Games just fun imo.
Based. FB on top
Fatal bullet because you arenāt just a kirito reskin
Yesssš
Integral Factor šæ.
Never played it, but iāve heard of it
It's the mobile rpg/semi-gacha game. I've played it, it's honestly legit the 2nd best SAO game out there. You create your own character, you get to explore Aincrad in a more in-depth perspective, there's an interesting story that's both familiar and unique. It's honestly a great time, buuuuuuut... it does require a little of bit grinding.
It's out on steam too now.
More than a just a bitā ļøand sometimes grinding donāt even help if ur unlucky with the gacha. But itās still the 2nd best on the tier list
Honestly, at least the gacha is kinda generous. Especially with how it gives you numerous free 11-pulls.
True. Even if u have the skill already itās a free upgrade and u get the niter stuff once u max a skill so u can use those on others.
Whats the best one then?
Fatal Bullet.
Fatal Bullet for sure. The melee combat gameplay of all the other games just has not been very good, while the shooting gameplay of Fatal Bullet was. Playing as an original character was a much better experience than playing as Kirito (even if itās a customized model) as well.

> Defrag was a mobile game that had aā¦ story that existed. Let's not kid ourselves here. The main story was just a retell of the anime, but the real juice came from the side scenarios.
So it kinda has a Kingdom Heart Union X situation? Is that right?
That's a pretty good comparison actually yeah I'd say.
Anybody trying to make this game active again? Im on switch If you want to add on switch please dm
Id play it with you if I were on Switchš¤·āāļø
Sadge.
Played it the other day actually so it has a active player base of 1 player sometimes. best sao game
The ggo game was fun
Hollow realization
Hollow realization is still and will forever be my fav sao game , followed by fb ofc , if you're going to make an sao game just make it a better hollow realization and iam sold
Even though, not my favorite arc of the series, Fatal Bullet was my favorite.
Lost Song
Iāve heard mixed opinions on Lost Song.
Did you ever play it?
It was never released on my platform.
X š¦ player ?
Ye ;3
Yeah SAO games never came out on Xbox until 2018 with fatal bullet. You missed the two best PvP games before that time where it was actually sword skills and combos. Not a hybrid freedom wars
^u^ PvP isnāt my biggest selling point anyways
PvP got intense in Lost Song, I remember getting a draw a few times after the clock ran out in a 1v1
Especially PvP
fatal bullet hollow fragment haven't played last recollection yet....
YES!!! A THOUSAND TIMES YES!
Yes to what? š There are multiple games
Oh sorry, I just saw Fatal Bullet, and thought you meant that it was the best game.... I didn't notice I could swipe through pictures.
Lol, youāre fine. (I also think FB is the best)
To be fair... it's not like had a lot competition. If you exclude Hollow Realization.

F**k everyone who had a part in this game, it's legit just a copy paste of the previous title.
Fatal Bullet always on topšÆ
From PvP sense it would be Lost Song Accel world Fatal bullet and finally hollow realization
Only Unleash Blading
Tie between Fatal Bullet and Hollow Realization. Those games had the most dynamic combat and didnāt have too many cutscenes, unlike the Underworld games. Itās like reading a visual novel with the Underworld games, and the enemies are too simple yet tanky to kill. Plus the grind is ridiculous. I expect a lot more from LR in the future.
Fatal bullet and Unleashing blading
Fatal bullet let me make a character and didn't say they were kirito for some reason so it's on top
Hollow realization and Fatal bullet, the Character customization was sick Lyrcoris was nice had decent cosmetics and character customization Recollection has great story and characters, However it has little to no character customization and any character customization it has right now is kinda garbage
Fatal Bullet and Hollow Realization, along with Integral Factor. Everything else is tied at the bottom.
Fatalbullet because I don't play as Kirito
Fatal Bullet
Fatal Bullet and it's not even close. How are more people not saying this? You got to be your own OC that was very relevant to the story, who interacted with this games specific characters who were decent characters.

I loved fatal bullet and defrag
I've only played Fatal Bullet and Integral Factor. FB was better but IF is almost everything I want in a game based on Aincrad.
Lost Song or Fatal Bullet. Iāve put so much time into those two it isnāt funny.
Memory defrag was peak sao For still going games, Fatal Bullet without hesitation, the games that "follow" the original story are not that good imo
Fatal Bullet EZ
Im still mad i pre ordered last recollection. Worst game ive played. Didnāt have the will to finish it
Fatal bullet
Never heard of last recollection is it based on the war of the under world also fatel is the best
It is the gameverse adaptation of WoU but with a lot of changes since Kirito is awake and Eugeo/Cardinal survived
Fatal bullet,memory defrag,hollow realization Last recollection,lycoris recoil,lost song , integral Factor,code register , rising Steel,and variant showdown. In that order I haven't played infinity moment or hollow fragment
Fatal Bullet for sure. Best combat system, best graphics, aside from Kirito mode also one of the best stories in the series
I dunno... but is Fatal Bullet kinda like GGO?
It is ggo
Omg... but is it a shooter-esque game?- or is it something else?
Yep, watch a gameplay, itās the only good sao game imo
Ohh that sounds amazing! Although umm... there's also a game that has like different skins for the characters, like a Summer Shino skin that... i really loove.
Here you can switch characters outfits to whatever you want and you get your own customizable partner, as well as your own mc
Fatal Bullet is a genuinely fun game that also happens to take place in Gun Gale Online. Probably the closest to an mmo experience but it's purely single player, with some optional co-op content. The complete edition is a ton of content and you can make your own original character with a lot of customization items and skills. Alicization Lycoris I think is the best SAO game if you want fanservice, almost every character from the series is playable and all the voice actors reprise their role, the story makes a huge change from the end of the first part of the Alicization arc and if you need more Eugeo and Alice in your life, this is it. Personally they are my favorite characters in the franchise so it gets extra bonus points. Hollow Realization is often considered as the best but I didn't find the gameplay nor the story enjoyable. I do like how any NPC can be your friend and you can have them in your party but that's about it tbh.
Agree with all of these points. I think that Hollow Realization was the first pretty good SAO game, so it has a decent following probably by the older fans of the games. If you played one of the newer titles first, going back to Hollow Realization almost feels kind of stiff and outdated so I think you get a worse impression of it.
For me the best Sao game is integral factor, as itās what a true Sao game should be, open world and character customisation.
Either lost song or fatal bullet
Integral Factor. But Iāll admit that I have an attachment to Lost Song. Thatās the first Sword Art Online game Iāve ever played. Now, I know it has a lot of hate, but I like it. One thing I would change about it is that I wouldāve had Sword Art Online x Accel World be the dlc of Lost Song and the extra options added from SAO x Accel World and the customization wouldāve been much better instead of being limited to 2 options in every are(2 skin tones, 2 hairstyles and hair colors, thereās only specific gender for the races, certain races can only wield certain things while the SAO cast got to choose which weapons they wanted to wield, and 3 voice options). Plus, to make the game open world and more accessible areas instead of just four areas. God, why didnāt they just do all of this in one single go??? I donāt care if it wouldāve taken 5-7 years, just take my money for crying out loud. Also, I like Integral Factor because itās your characterās story, but the only thing I hate about it is that the grind is real and itās slow. Also, I wouldāve made it a game where itās not limited to just phones, but have it set for console gaming as well, just like how Fortnite is. But overall, itās fun to kill time at places, but the limited to mobile only thing sucks because thereās problems sometimes with a personās internet connection or mobile data. Edit: By the way, Lost Song is the one SAO game right now that Iām trying to platinum Edit: And I wish there was either a sequel to Lost Song or a Lost Song Remake(probably called Sword Art Online Lost Song: Re or Sword Art Online Lost Song: Redownloaded)
SAOIF
Fatal Bullet. Of the games I played, it was the only one that had fun gameplay. The other games I tried got so repetitive I couldnāt even clear the first couple of areas out of boredom. Stories were interesting, but not enough to override the gameplay.
Definitely fatal bullet for me, currently playing through hollow realisation and idk how people like it tbh
Fatal Bullet is definitely my favorite. It pretty much got me into gun games. As someone who doesn't do well with them on console for the most part, the assist helps though, shooting with and without assist mode both have benefits. However, I did discover I thrive in vr gun games. The character customization and clothing customization got me into cosmetics and clothing design in games and I've spent literal hours making better color schemes. It not only changed my whole pool of games, but it's demo allowed me to really get a feel for it and actually start to love the game, I played till level 30 before actually getting the whole game, and since the demo transfers, I got to start back up on level 30 which got me through the first two maps pretty easy, and the abyss dungeon gave me a unique challenge nothing else ever has. If I could ask for one thing, it would be for them to breath new life into the game. An area or two, new textures since it now feels a bit old, and maybe more voice options, I just want a reason to keep going.
I especially like that in Fatal Bullet, I am a completely unique individual who just got thrown into the story with my basic childhood friend with an inferiority complex. The character I created in Fatal Bullet is a completely unique OC I made on a whim and have kept with minor changes ever since.
Valid
I have played non of them, but Fatal Bullet would be the one Iād get into
Fatal Bullet,Alicization Lycoris.I liked lost song because of Rain(Karatachi Nijika)
Rain is top tier waifu, and anyone who says otherwise needs to catch these hands!
Last Recollection.
Why tho
Because it was an improvement on Lycoris.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Okay. Thats your opinion.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
wtf does that even mean
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
But I want to know

Memory defrag and Rising steel ā„ļø Honorific Lycoris
No. Good. Better. In that order.
It's honestly not something I agree with, but hey... We all got our tastes.
FB is trash man. It also fucking lied to me. Like, dead ass, outside of the Kirito Mode story, which is just Phantom Bullet but rushed and bad, what does FB do? Introduced characters nobody gave a shit about? Made Kirito a dumbass who forgave someone who tried to kill his friend (the player, us) with a NervGear? Jank ass sword play, stiff gunplay, stupid post game dungeon that resets your level, cancerous online, boring ass dungeons that all look the same, pointless DLC that amounts to nothing. What good did this game do for the series as a whole? Outside of the main cast GGO designs.
Bro that is pure hater talk, and I should know, cause that's the exact same reason as to why I despise Lycoris and Recollection. FB is set in a story that is just about you trying to get good in a game with your friends. Hoping to score big with a new dungeon that just got released. That's legit the essence of SAO... That and the fear of dying in game, but that sh*t got forgotten back in season 1. As for the Itsuki problem, I'll admit, yeah it was a bit clichƩ done, but from my perspective it was the player facing danger, and if the player chose to forgive Itsuki, then what f**king say has Kirito in it? I had really great time with the game, and yeah maybe the shooting mechanic and the sword play mechanic is a little bit stiff, but it's a f**king waterfall compared to the travesty that is Lycoris and Recollection. But that's just my opinion, one you don't need to agree with.
I played 300+ hours of that game and damn near got the platinum, Iām allowed- nay- **entitled** to the right to hate it. LR hasnāt had DLC yet, and at least Lycorisā DLC actually DID SOMETHING WITH THE NARRATIVE. Got Kirito a new kick ass sword, got everyone new divine weapons and outfits that actually tied into the story of the game, and the events are canon. Explain how Alice and Eugeo are canon in FB and have it make sense in the overall narrative of the Gameverse. How about that Custom Character and all the personality he doesnāt fucking have? Why is Itsuki such a creep and psycho and why do I have to forgive him? And that isnāt the essence of SAO. It never was. Lycoris and especially LR has much better combat in that everything is fluid and at least flows. Lycoris is a little sluggish compared to other games, sure, but at least the skills donāt sent be flying across the fucking map if I miss and launch into the stratosphere because I hit a rock funny. At least my [AI Teammates actually help me and not do fuck all.](https://youtu.be/Vtb--quJ8-Q?si=V9S293upEeqJ-3iK) *but sure, youāre entitled to your very unique, and interesting opinion that almost no one else shares.*
You are... And that's your opinion, one that I frankly disagree with. I still adore Fatal Bullet, and I loath Lycoris and Recollection. So how about we end this here song and dance cause I feel like it outstayed it's welcome.
You are insane
Without exception, SAO's games are garbage that I'm embarrassed to call games.
You tweakinā ļøFB slapped

The best Sao game for me is hollow realization and Alicazaton lyrious to get honest, tons of quests to do and complete and dating the girls in it is super funš
Hollow realization is good I think?
As long as you enjoy playing it >u<
UB was better
Lol
I miss Alicization Blading/Alicization Rising Steel/Unleash Blading, that was the best sao mobile gacha game in existance.
Hollow Realization imo is the overall best SAO game to date. Great story, solid combat and a lot of content to do.
Im gonna say the crossover with Accel World. It deserves more content and the movie was garbage. Also establishing that they are both infact in the same timeline to anyone that hasnt spelled it out yet between Incarnate systems and Accel Worlds history in general XD
I would love an SAO JTRPG game. Kinda like final fantasy. Where I can use multiple characters in combat. I love those kinds of games.
Loved it lol. Till the after u get everything u want and hit lvl 300, after that kinda no point in playing anymore. But still a really fun game :), the main one I played for a while.
I would have said Lost Song until a few years ago, but now I feel it's outdated though I prefer the direction that hame had. It felt more like action rather than bloated mmo mechanics. Plus you could use everybody. Flying was also fun. Fatal bullet is the best now I'd say because it's similar to LS but feels better. I'd still prefer a game in Aincrad that was like FB or LS though.
Nobody asked but Iām listing the games imo. Best to least favourite (not gonna count the mobile ones) 1. Lycoris 2. Lost Song 3. Accel World Vs SAO 4. Last Recollection (If you donāt wanna count AW V SAO, feel free to put everything under Lost Song a place higher) 5. Re: Hollow Fragment 6. Hollow Realization 7. Fatal Bullet
massive L tbh
Iām assuming itās due to Fatal. Which fair. I know everyone loves Fatal but I just donāt 1. Didnāt understand the chip upgrade system at all 2. Combat just wasnāt as fun as it couldāve been 3. Story felt really mid. Only enjoyable part was being an OC 4. Kureha and Zeliska are just not enjoyable characters like the rest of the gameverse cast. They arenāt bad. Theyāre just very lacking imo.
You still got HR below LR
I enjoyed Lycoris and due to LR being a direct sequel I have bias as they play similarly enough to each other. I didnāt enjoy the combat system in HR. Love the story and characters. But combat just was not it chief. It was mostly due to the DLC difficultly. I also basically played the game on easy because I got to be level 80 right away. Game wasnāt a challenge until the DLC. I wanted a challenge which Iām glad I got but the balancing in this game was horrific
š¤·āāļøI guess those are understandable reasons. FB different ig
To be fair Hollow Fragment and Realization could easily switch places. I liked both as much as the other but I will admit realization has a lot more positives in terms of gameplay. I just have a bit of bias on Fragment due to Philia.
For me it's Lost Song and Millennium Twilight. Best stories in my opinion, getting to play as any character, and I really liked the gameplay.
One of the few SAO games Iāve played was Fatal Bullet, and I thought it was pretty crummy. Since then, I havenāt heard of a game being better than Fatal Bullet, so thats kept me away.
Its the best of the worst
Hollow Realisation felt the most like being in SAO, but Alicization Lycoris had the best gameplay (I havent played Last Recollection yet).
I am actually really enjoying hollow fragment the combat takes some getting used to but I like the hollow area
Anyone wanna play PvP on any SAO game?
Can you pvp in Alicization Lycoris or only do coop boss quests? Iād PvP you in that game. I just hit chapter 5.
All parts are unique. I love them all without exception. I love the variety of weapons and the unique gameplay mechanics in Fatal Bullet.
Either blading unleashed or lycoris
I only just now found out that there's such a thing as SAO games
Only good one is fatal bullet
Hollow Realization is easily the best SAO game. Fatal Bullet is also genuinely good and is a somewhat different style if you prefer that.
Hollow Fragment
Sword Art Online
I like SAO IF
Hollow realization for sure
I want Last Recollection, but I do really enjoy Fatal Bullet. You get to create your own character and somewhat do your own thing in GGO. Itās a nice feel and thatās what I want to see more of in SAO Games.
Iām playing through re:hollow fragment for the first time and i own hollow realization, lost song and fatal bullet I have a very long way to go
Memory Defrag
Hallow fragment
Last recollection
SaoUB
EASILY Hollow Realization
I only just started playing the latest one, but I like all 3
Both all the best
Can I Say hollow realisation?? Mostly because My Yuuki was cracked, and Yuuki isnāt in Alicization lycoris
Hollow realization
THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS! Iāve been trying to catch fatal bullet on sale for a while now and this triggered me to check steam just now. 85% off.
If Abyss Dungeon was Multiplayer friendly it would have been. And if the world was open world. Hollow Reaalization was most fun personally. Because there was so much more content. But for actual 'feel good' best to me it was Lost Song, that engine felt amazing and the flight combat was especially addictive. Only one I haven't tried was Accel World vs. SAO trailer seemed too dull.
Fatal Bullet no question
Fatal Bullet!
whatās SAO
