    More like "Ima Re:Verse my decision to buy this game"

    It feels a more like something you'd see at a Japanese arcade instead of on a home console as a purchase bonus.

    Chad Hikkiko giving the devs cred where they deserve.
    More often poor management decisions kill games more than devs just not being good

    I remember when this was announced i thought "Wow this looks terrible" but I got curious about it when it officially released, but not curious enough to take the time to install it

    Loved this review. I'm a hardcore Resistance fan. I was already pissed by how Capcom treated that game, not offering it separately, not fixing some critical bugs, not impelementing anti-cheat and dropping updates real fast. Well, now Resistance is dead on PC because one single hacker completely locked the matchmaking making it impossible to play and Capcom still doesn't give a damn and their support ignores inquiries. OK, then Re:Verse gets announced and it looks inferior in every way, I still try the beta, hate it, but waiting for the full release hoping that after such a masive delay it is majorly reworked and has different mods and so on. How naive of me! it is clear that NeoBards were given a non-existent budget and a skeleton crew worked on this game for a year and a half. No money for dedicated servers of course. No anti-cheat again, Resistance's hacker happily joined this one too and it is only a matter of time until he finds a way to interfere with the matchmaking here as well. On a positive note: unlike Resistance there's crossplay, attempt at rank-based matchmaking, block feature and an option to select regions.
    P.S. I don't know if it is a coincidence or if you read the leaked files from the ransomware attack on Capcom, but the virus mode was discussed there. Crazy that they did not implement any of the extra modes that were in the leaked tentative roadmap. As you said it's an obligation release, with bare minimum content that they can still monetize.

      Well in Capcoms defense they stopped working on it due to it seeming like a waste of time. So many people shit all over it and didn’t give it a chance. Resistance had the same exact response as people are giving reverse even though resistance was actually pretty good and just needed some balancing

    All this effort they put into a game that they KNEW no one wanted, coupdve been put into an OUTBREAK remake. Imagine Outbreak with updates.
    New characters
    New skins
    New weapon skins
    Challenges
    New levels
    If ONLY they listened to the fans

    Also i don't believe in more then one mode per game now, cause since you can look at call of duty's player count per mode, you could see that almost everyone were playing tdm. Adding more variety will just cost more dev-time and increase unsatisfaction with longer queue time. That happened recently to Deathverse: LID, they turned off for couple of weeks normal mode, since people couldn't find any matches on pc

    • @Elfangel85

      Why would they? The game reuses assets from games made on RE Engine only.

    it really is a shame that this game is good. as weird as it sound i think a Japanese dev could make a really fun multiplayer shooter if done right. but they always seem to be behind on the times or fall short

  • @kenhoable

    I feel like NeoBard lost their passion after Resistance failure. I really would love if capcom give the resource for RE:Verse to Resistance to make it a complete game.
    Also i don't blame NeoBard for dropping resistance as we don't know the commercial agreement between them and capcom. If capcom isn't giving more money post launch, there is not reason for them to continue.

  • @mistergremm735
    @mistergremm735 2 роки тому +2

    one hand I can see the excuse that the game is just asset flip RE engine materials that they have around to create a multiplayer game and that capfom likely didn't supply them with enough budget ti perhaps create original material like some of resistence and capcom didn't want to repeat that so they give them less to work with...
    But still if REverse really would go over with someone lild warewolf guy over someone like hesienberg or lady D than that's big fat L, also wouldn't be neat to add characters from RE4 remake like Luis, salazar, Krauser (if he wasn't cut) ashley or even atleast a Leon attire
    wouldn't that help both RE;VERSE longevity and hype up RE4make more by having essentially demo versions of those characters, I'm sure devs wouldn't mind lending some assets, here you go capcom.... two birds with one stone

  • @medijate

    by the time this came out they have added more content to Village then what *came out* with Re:Verse. It's not even a selling point anymore. It's not like Resistance where it at least feels like a free pack in bonus

    For the longest time I thought this and Resistance were the same game. Why are they competing with themselves? Resistance was flawed, but at least more interesting than this. Why not just work to make that better? I don't understand why this even exists.

    • @HikikomoriMedia
      @HikikomoriMedia  2 роки тому +2

      Re:sistance had a whole 4 months of support before Capcom dropped it. It's a travesty, because it could be so much better if they just balanced the matchmaking to scale properly. Great new characters and you could play as far more bioweapons than Re:Verse.

    This is the worst asset flip I have ever seen. If this game was completely free, it wouldn't be a problem and it could've been a good marketing campaign for the Resident Evil franchise, but no. They had to monetize it. Of course. Are we sure it's not an EA game? -_-
    They also could've added more characters and maps from Resident Evil 7, Village, 2 Remake and 3 Remake and the battle pass could be free and skins could be purchased with in-game currency with no MTX or game purchase required. This would bring even more attention to the franchise so the players would have a small taste of the games and maybe they would buy the associated game.
    Maybe even provide a 10% discount code for each of the games if you do X thing. For example, play 500 matches on RPD, kill 2000 players as Ada, kill 2000 players as Leon. Reward: 10% off discount when you purchase RE2.
    But no, they decided to make a stand-alone game using 99% of the assets of those games and create an abomination plagued by MTX. Horrible decisions.

  • @vul4ak
    @vul4ak 2 роки тому

    Something I keep seeing missing from Neobards discussion is that they've been working with Capcom on ports like DMC HD Collection, RE0/RE1 HD Remasters, the Onimusha 2019 re-release and more. So far they've been working with Capcom's stuff given to them, rather than build something on their own and while you can nitpick each and every one of these ports/remasters to death (Oh dear DMC HD Collection, how massacred you are...) - it's still experience on big name brands (ok, arguably RE is the biggest here ofc).
    That gives me hope for Silent Hill F - it's at least in the hands of people who have at least touched a big survival-horror franchise before and worked on porting games that (at their time) came directly from the survival-horror craze of the 90s and early 2000s (Onimusha being Sengoku Biohazard, DMC being RE4 at one point etc.)

    I played the open beta and it was so boring and forgettable that I thought it was cancelled. Then they just shit it out like this. Laughable.

  • @timothycorello9891
    @timothycorello9891 2 роки тому +1

    Capcom should really just remake outbreak file 1 and 2 instead of making shit like re verse. I’m seriously hoping that the nvidia leak that had outbreak listed on it was accurate. I assume it is since a lot of other games on that leaked list have come true like re4r And theoretically speaking capcom has release and multiplayer spin off with every new entry for the past two years, resistance with re3r, re verse with village, so I don’t see why they can’t do an outbreak remake to go along with re4r
