So I checked around the catalog and nobody talked about the game, right now the game is on steam in Early Access.
Please Anons, tell us your experience with this first vidya.

The shadowing just doesn't work on a character model. I swear, this looks like she could be in KOF14.

Seems the RTgames kinda backpedaled after the big backslash from most people at steam.
They say will go back to the toon-like shader and work on facial expressions to make them look less like dead sexdolls. Hope they go back to the old textures too, to avoid those derpy eyes.
Seeing how RWBY is currently RT's golden egg laying duck they shouldn't risk displeasing a part of its fanbase like that.
I know RT probably wants to keep the game devs team as small as possible, and that an actual professional dev may be too expensive for them to hire, but they really need to get some experienced guy as advisor for them. There is a lot of stuff they could make to improve the perfomance of the game without having to have drastic aesthetic changes like they did, specially since the anime/toon look allows for a lot of liberties on it you wouldn't have if making a more realistic looking game. They probably aren't too familiar with that kind of stuff and spect Unity to make all that work for them.

Seconded. It's an optimization issue and the team doesn't know jack on how to solve it.

I didn't even think the "anime" look was so taxing. Honestly, for a game that has PS2 graphics, if people are having performance issues, either they have shitty rigs, or the devs messed too much with the engine. Did people report improved performance after this update?

Doubt the anime look is the cause of the performance issues, as you say, there is a lot of games with that look that work perfectly on older pcs. In my opinion, judging by what I have seen in some /v/ threads the models (and probably everything else) are badly optimized, have a pretty high polycount, a really messy uv mapping and lots of unnecessary meshes, like the back of their heads behind their hair and so on. Plus they were drawing them twice to get the black line effect. They work perfectly for the show, but a game is a very different thing.
My girlfriend plays on a shitty rig, dual core, 4 gbs of ram. Potato settings and 800x600 resolution of course. But other that than she never had any perfomance issues, and her FPS never went below 35-40, so I'm guessing they messed up really hard with the engine.
So far I have seen only 3 or 4 people posting about actual improvement on the performance after the update. Most people are actually complaining they have even worst performance now, with some people not being able to go past the Rooster Theet games screen.

Final price will be $24.99. The new really feels like it came out of nowhere, but seems they have some new content prepared for it.
I'm stll worried about how this full game will end since the last updates have received more bad reviews than good ones, and people has really high expectatives on it that I doubt will make it in time for the release date. Maybe they got fed up with the game and decided to just rush and finish it as soon posible?

They're just using themes from the show? Kind of a shame, if you ask me.
If they ever decide to get original music that isn't just ambient wind sounds, they should hire this dude.

Played it recently and agree that the final boss and the ending overall were anticlimatic as fuck. Final boss should had a second more powefull form to spice things up, and you should have a time limit to reach the airship after you defeat it, with androids trying to stop you.
I don't really care too much about the story, so the early levels were more fun than the last ones to me. Will play it sometimes, since it's fun, but is in no way a perfect game, and no way worth it's current price. Let's wait to see what they'll do in the small updates they promised.
Also this happened to me before the boss fight, so yeah, they totally rushed the release too much.

Fuck that shit, I'm not giving these fucks any more money. The earlier version of the game where we still had special attacks and characters that felt like they played differently was what I supported, but they've legitimately made the game worse since it went into early access. They can fuck off.

Totally agree with this. Wonder if at some point someone can mod the game to go back to that control scheme.
The game was supossed to be mod friendly, but I never saw anyone mentioning that again after the release.
>>27382
Someone on 4chan tried it at the con and said each JNPR has anm extra special attack, that makes them feel different between each other and from team RWBY too. But that's all. Is a step on a good direction I guess?
I'll wait for it to get pirated, because is not worth the money for something I'll probably play only once with each character.

Can't believe they aren't doing V2 costumes, people are asking for them since the game was released.

Not really worth it considering the fact that it won't add anything to the game.
Are they planning on adding anything of actual value to the game? Or is this the end of GE?

Totally agree. They should have released the V2 outfits instead of this (those are worth the money in my opinion) and save these for a food-battle pvp map. I would make way more sense.

Unless they add new animations and actual balance to the game with the update and DLC, then I won't buy the DLC.
Besides, changing costumes is really easy with mods. At least this makes it just a little bit more interesting when I'm speedrunning the game.

Totally agree on that. They, could at least, add more taunts, except for Ren and Nora, theirs are perfect the way they are.
>and actual balance
As far as I know, when JNPR was realeased and people asked if there was plans to rework team RWBY, devteam said team RWBY is done and they will not touch them. A wasted oportunity to make them more fun to play with.
>changing costumes is really easy with mods.
Sadly the game is not as mod-friendly as they said it was going to be. There is still some impressive thing made for it anyway. Pic realted is my favorite, a WIP from someone on Steam. Now if they added steam workshop support, that would be great. Maybe they don't do it to keep fans from releasing free content they could charge for instead?
I think the biggest fuck up with this DLC is that it doesn't encourage you to play again. If at least one of the extra costumes sets was a unlockable it would force people to play again, that would be way more fun, and you would get the feeling of actually having earned them.

That's the problem with costume DLCs. How would you encourage people to come back and play the game though? New missions and levels? Maybe more modes?

New missions and levels would be the best approach, but they clearly don't want to work too much on the game anymore, even if we talked about shorter and simpler missions, so I would aim for simpler stuff.
New modes could be a way to give players more content us and still be less work for them. Horde mode was a step in the right direction there, I have played it way more than campaign mode. Things like a time survival mode could be easy to implement and has a lot of of replayability value, specially if you have an online ranking table. Challeges/trials (proper ones, not that "reset your level and restart" rank bullshit they have at the moment). Some sort of Vs. mode. A real PVP would need a lot of rework and balancing, but to avoid that they could make it more like a mini-game. Have both players with the same character fighting against something, and the one that kills their's faster wins.
And the simplest way: just make the costumes unlockables.
