Played my first and only game of Re:Verse, and yeah, it's basically what you'd expect if you haven't seen gameplay yet. Pretty Re:Tarded.
Dumb fun? Oh, most definitely. But boy is it also pretty shallow and repetitive. There doesn't seem to be a ranking system of any form or something similar. So nothing appears to unlock with gameplay, it's pretty cut and dry. At least in this test, which of course could change with retail. So every match just contains random items sprawled across a random map, and that's really it. I'm really not sure how much Capcom plans to lean into this thing, I feel like they're going to lean into it a pretty good amount if they've been having multiple tests for it.
The balance and mechanics just feel so haphazardly put together too. For instance, getting Virus Vials allow you to transform into a creature when you die to get revenge, the more you have, the "better" the creature is. Stronger, more agile, etc. Well, a lot of the time if you're killed by someone they can (and usually do) just hover over your body and kill you again, or kill you when THEY die and transform, lmao.
It's a neat mechanic that just kind of gets drowned out by weird gameplay decisions. Not really sure if TTK or anything else could really help it.
Playing one match was enough for me to go, "Hey, alright", and then I uninstalled it.
