What drives the score
How to read this
Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.
The value story
It has never been cheaper than $1.49. That was December 2025. 88 discounts in the 10 years on record. They run about 75 percent off, roughly 5 weeks apart. Today's $2.99 at 90 percent off still sits 101 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.
Take the discount away and it is a 14. With it, 23.
It is pricier than 98 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 76 percent. MORDHAU ($29.99, scores 56) outscores it, and so does Chivalry 2 ($7.99, scores 50). Both sit among its closest neighbours.
Players rate it 69 percent positive over its lifetime, but the last 30 days run 50 percent. Something recent has soured the room. This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 2 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written August 2026 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 38 percent of the 4,405 reviews written there were positive, against 69 percent overall, and those are 4 percent of everything written about it.
Finishing takes 7 hours; clearing it takes 18, which is 2.6 times the campaign.

What players say
If I were in a room with Hitler, Bin Laden, and this game, and I had a gun with two bullets, I would shoot this game twice.
Never thought I would see PlayStation tactics here, I'm just a casual player and can care less for the new Rank mode that has completely cut off Linux players, I no longer can play on my steam deck and pretty sure I won't be able to get my money back either. At this point I'm not even mad about the $30 but the principle to just simply cut off players cause you can't come up with a better way to stop cheaters. Kick...
From my experience of playing this game I have learned quite a bit of things: 1. You need patience to play this game without loosing it 2. It's better to play with friends that way you can cope together 3. Do NOT get hooked on the TikTok edits of this game (just because its tuff doesn't mean it's gonna be fun) 4. It is very easy to get hooked on this game so consider taking breaks before you loose yourself 5...

FOR HONOR™ scores 23/100 on the BANG Score (a skip). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/304390/for-honorThe BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.
Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Sep 10, price as of Sep 24.
