I remember getting recommended this anime by a YouTuber named mother's basement, he's said that this is a must watch anime for this season but when I see the score it's very low. I'm aware this come from a game, is the game even any good?

The anime is not adapting a game, but it's an anime original that adapts the story between Cold steel II and III. It's only 1st episode and it was mostly an expositional episode for anime onlies and those type of episodes are largely disliked by people.
But here are the games, you can look at the reception on steam:

The games are phenomenal.

No? It's adapting the characters/world of a game. Not the game itself. The events in this anime are not in the games.

It's like saying that Dragon Ball Evolution is adapting the manga. Or Jedi Fallen order adapting a movie.

It's not adapting a game. There's a time jump between cold steel 2 and cold steel 3. This anime shows what happened between those two games. There's alot of lore and story that leads up to this anime. I suspect it's not going to be very newbie friendly as a result, but as the other poster said episode 1 was ALOT of exposition. Time will tell if it's a worth wild addition to the franchise

The first mistake you made was watching a Mother’s Basement video. Tbh unless you played the games, this anime isn’t going to sit well with a lot of anime onlys. Yes the games are absolutely fantastic I highly recommend you play them. Trails in the Sky is pretty cheap on steam and it works on almost every potato PC.

Edit: Surprised no one mentioned it, but the Trails games have a huge overarching story. The most ideal way to play is the release order/chronological order which goes as follows. 

Trails in the Sky > Trails in the Sky SC > Trails in the Sky 3rd > Trails From Zero > Trails to Azure > Trails of Cold Steel 1 > Trails of Cold Steel 2 > Trails of Cold Steel 3 > Trails of Cold Steel 4 > Trails into Reviere > The two Kuro no Keseki games. 

Above is the ideal and honestly the best way to play the games, but if for some reason you wanna start with Cold Steel then you could do this play order. 

Trails of Cold Steel 1 > Trails of Cold Steel 2 > Trails in the Sky > Trails in the Sky SC > Trails in the Sky 3rd > Trails From Zero > Trails to Azure > Trails of Cold Steel 3 > Trails of Cold Steel 4 > Trails into Reviere > The two Kuro no Keseki games. 

The firs 5 games are the best in the series imo. So I highly recommend playing them in release order
