I have always had a love for the idea of turn-based games, but I am also the kind of person who's difficulty preference is "I want to feel like I have to use quite literally everything I've got to get through it". There are very few, in fact, none, turn-based games I have yet played up to this point that have gotten me remotely close to that feeling. Reverse Collapse, however, is PERFECTLY to my tastes. I played on Challenge+, effectively the hardest difficulty + only scripted points where the game auto-saves mid-mission. Aside from even just Challenge, I think the "+" part should just be the default experience of the game. Unlike many other games I've played, Reverse Collapse is dead set on making sure you use your items. There is no "saving it for a later point I might need it more", you will use it *now* or there will not *be* a "later point". Early on, it often feels like every mission begins with looking around the map and going "how in the hell am I going to survive this?" To then, indeed, survive it, feels absolutely amazing. The gameplay is finely tuned to a T, I have played through all of NG on Challenge+, then NG+, all of 2092R (a remaster of the original game Reverse Collapse is based on), 100%ed the game, and have begun doing challenge runs because I love it that much. It is the perfect indication that when MICA chooses to cook, they absolutely can, and it will make you even more frustrated with how bungled the gameplay of GFL2 is, knowing full well that they're very capable of putting out absolutely peak strategy experiences. Contrary to what other reviews may say, very little ever felt unfair to me. There are a lot of 'surprise' objectives, but in general I really like these. In many cases, the player ends up being just as surprised as the characters, it's a nice feeling of connection between the cast and the player of "oh ♥♥♥♥ what do you mean there's MORE?!" Yet, they're all pretty much exclusively pretty fair and rarely (if ever) trigger in instances in which you cannot do anything about them, often also just starting you with a fresh bar of Action Points. Also contrary to other reviews, I am, generally speaking, fond of the stealth. Many people like to claim that it is completely unfair, that you practically can't solve them without guides and that mind-reading is necessary to figure stuff out. This is completely false. Rather, the game will 100% punish you for being hasty. For not checking enemy patrols, for placing scanners in 'dangerous' locations where you're not *100%* sure that it's not next to an enemy you can't see, or for sleep darting enemies that are in the pathway of patrols or sightlines of another. Purely by paying attention and being diligent, you can very much so figure everything out by yourself. Even the most infamous stealth map, one called "Midnight Stratagem" plays by these rules. There is not a single moment in which you are expected to have to fail to gain information that you could not have reasonably otherwise. Not all of the maps are perfect, but they are all certainly *fair*, and many would rather consider it a failure on the game's part before they will acknowledge a skill issue, or that they got punished for taking risks in an attempt to shortcut diligence. While there are 'surprises' in stealth too, these are all, without failure, triggered at times in which you can compensate for the adjustment. You need to change your plan on the fly, yes, but you always will have time to, unless you have made other blatant mistakes earlier. The only 'oops you're caught, no counterplay" is if you're unlucky enough to have a piece of equipment next to where one of these surprises happens. Every time this happened to me (like, twice), I felt less like it was ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, and more like I had my equipment in an obviously weird spot, usually looking around for hidden collectibles rather than 'normal' use. The more I have played, the better I have gotten at the game as a whole, the more I have come to love it. Much of the original challenge feels pretty easy to me now, and I love that feeling, of conquering something that was so borderline impossibly difficult during my first attempts, and coming to understand all its systems well enough as to make it look easy. If you want fair, genuine difficulty, Reverse Collapse is amazing. I also like how character skills are handled. Once everything is unlocked, every character will have 5 passives, and 8 active skills, of which you can bring 4 of those active skills into any given mission (some characters also get some "special skills", which cannot be leveled, but work like normal actives where you can slot them). As you level up, you will gain "potential keys" that can be used to level up your skills, both active and passive, up to lv5 for each of them. (In NG, at max level you will have enough for 5 passives and 4 actives, though you do not have to distribute them in that specific manner). Each character has what I'd call a "main" archetype, and various "sub" archetypes alongside that. For instance, Atena is generally a tank. She has various skills for damage reduction, a taunt, that kind of thing. But she's also an item-junkie, having a skill to increase her damage with damage-dealing items, and a passive that improves stealth items and gives her more range when using items. However, she is not limited to either of these archetypes either. Her main advantage for tanking is "Armor", that is, flat damage reduction on incoming hits. As such, she has a skill that temporarily increases her armor, and her taunt will also do so. Yet, there's another skill that can take this armor value, and deal x% of that value in a line AoE in front of her, which can get *deceptively* powerful. If you choose to, you can build Atena to use her tankiness as a weapon, or, another one, in which gives her guns double-shots. Both of her guns are close-range. She is not intuitive to use for damage nuking. But one is a really high damage shotgun, and the other is a pistol that she uses to counterattack when shot at. So, you can use this double-shot skill to both set up turns where she just blasts a boss with effectively 8 shots from her high damage, high armor-pierce shotgun, and/or, set her up to counter with double shots from her pistol as well, giving another flavor to her abilities. There are very few outright 'bad' skills in the game, almost everything has a niche or some way of playing the character that it aids. You can mix and match to make a character as 'pure' or 'spread out' as you want. Atena can have solely tanking skills. Or, she can spread out with a few different niches that she's lightly committed to, etc. Everyone operates in the same way. Their main archetype defines them, but it is not all they are capable of. Similarly, there are no outright 'bad' characters. Everyone has a role, and everyone can do a lot of things. You can misutilize them, you can faultily believe that only Jefuty is useful at a point, you can think a character is hot garbage and only decent for dispensing items, but I assure you, they can ALL kick major ass. Nearly everyone can set up to be able to drop nukes, and nearly everyone can set up to help others perform their roles better. 224 hours at the time of this review, and I am sure it will go up by a lot with time. I would kill for more stuff like this. 9/10, I want a workshop level editor. ...Note that none of this applies to 2092R. I am happy 2092R is in the game. I am glad a remastered version of the original 2013 game exists as a side game. I am glad you can play it. It sucks ass. It's garbage. Your Turn: 75. It is agony in the unfun way. It is simultaneously harder and far easier. Your flashbangs last for 2 turns. The moment you learn this, nothing will ever move near you again. I cleared the final map on the NG+ of 2092R, by meeting the relevant S rank condition, then dropping about 70 cruise missiles (really) on the rest, no thanks. It's at least short.
Wanted to leave a review for this game, though I've yet to reach the true end. (I played on Casual) First of all, it's a military tactical turn-based game, and most especially the old SRPG genre (which I've not played any). If this is your first time playing one of these, save yourself the trouble and choose Casual. You WILL savescum alot to figure out the correct solution in the notorious stealth missions (which, the number of 'cute surprises' doesn't change with difficulty.) Those missions are more like puzzles, and although you can go loud, its better you do so when you're at lategame replay mode with more levels and skills. When you see a ??? in the Bonus Objectives, be ready for a second or even third phase of the stage. The game will usually pause you to make more items, but remember that purple tier items (scanners, walls, turrets) cant be re-made. Only turrets can be fixed by Mendo's ult. This is especially important for Chapter 2-7's second phase, where a boss shows up. The game loves to throw difficulty spikes like that, so be prepared (you can disassemble unwanted items to make needed ones) So... this isn't Girls Frontline 2 where V6 Voymastina clears the whole stage on the click of the start battle. The game expects you to use items alot, at maximum efficiency, and counting tiles is vital. Wasted Action Points (AP) will be punished heavily, as the game constantly throws new enemies at you from the map edges, and you'll learn to expect that. Reverse Collapse really wants you to feel outnumbered and in despair against the URNC troops, to feel Jefuty's struggle in trying to complete her objective About the story, Jefuty opens a bakery shop where she serves bullets to her enemies. Or something. The cutscenes have great JP voice acting but there's quite some mistranslations. Jefuty really wants to save her sister due to good memories of family time, though you will need 100 hours to find out why we as the player, really care about all this. Halfway through the game, missions really start to drag when youre figuring how to kill 20 enemies in one turn before another 20 show up. There's a part near the end where the game tells you to be ready for a lore dump, and this is my biggest gripe with the game, perhaps im too brainrotted to play strategy games, but the time to reach the next story part is too long in my opinion. There are 38 total secret documents detailing Yuzhong's delusional MGS fantasies in the GFL universe, and you have to collect them all to unlock the true ending. (you can quit a mission the moment you get the doc, the game will save it) If you've not played Girls Frontline, be ready to read up on lots of keywords (the game shows it bold on the right during storytime) to know about the worldbuilding - of the Relics and Collapse Radiation etc. Overall, this isn't a easy game, and despite the challenges, once you get into it, there's just something that keeps you wanting to finish this story and see the protagonists' happy ending. That's how yuzhong always writes their story anyway (and we get surprised for the hundredth time someone dies horribly). Now if you'll excuse me, I need to bake bread and infiltrate William's asscrack to get the last document and see the MC kiss. I mean what?
one of the most brutally challenging tactical rpgs out there full stop. think XCOM but all the missions are hand-crafted in the same way a fist is hand-crafted to punch you in the face. new mechanics pop up frequently, you always feel either completely outgunned, or just a bit behind the enemy's prowess. i can't really discuss any more without spoiling, but it makes stealth in a tactical rpg actually compelling to play. the background information for the story is rather complex (although made easier if you've played Girl's Frontline, or Girl's Frontline 2: Exilium) but made a lot more digestible via a glossary that updates when new terms are mentioned. it's quite impressive actually how much attention is put into the little things. for instance if you load a save you haven't played in a while (or maybe just a different chapter?) it'll start by giving you a recap of what just happened before the current scene so you're not completely lost. the one thing that kind of ruins a bit of it for me is the collectible system, where you have to step on an unmarked tile in each act to obtain. there's no indication something's there, and they're occasionally out of the way, making it one of those "you either bash your head against a wall trying to find everything" style features that just push you towards looking up a guide, thus spoiling the combat (which is quite puzzle-like, as you can't save-scum due to fixed RNG on each turn). aside from that there are some OCCASIONAL untranslated textboxes, but they've been of no consequence to any mechanic from what I can tell. good game, good story, gives you an insight into what MICA can do when they're not beholden to whatever HOYOesque gacha mechanics they've been adding in GFL2. really hope they'll put out more single-player pay-once experiences. play it if you're dying for another hit of XCOM, but if Gen Urobuchi wrote it (emotional pain). UPDATE: finished it. love and hope indeed.
Tired of steamrolling alien invasion with your supersoldiers in XCOM? Play this game. Tired of your bad habit of never using consumables? Play this game. Want to fight against overwhelming odds and feel like a tactical genius when you get S-rank in a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ 4 vs 80 battle? Again, play this game. +Likable squad members with pretty distinct roles. Not everyone can be your war goddess with mosin-nagant, but everyone is essential. +Satisfying progression. Skills, passives, weapong upgrades, equipment, consumables. From the very first mission and until the very end you grow stronger and your options expand. On the other side even the most basic enemy Ivan the Soldier does some workout between missions and refuses to become irrelevant and non-threatening. +Good variety of enemies, all having an elite version that can easily punish you if you are not careful. +Again - consumables. Never have I played the game where placing trip mines, remote control bombs, tear-gas, smoke, flashbangs and EMPs is so satisfying. Watching an elite squad of invisible special forces choke to death because they cant leave your minefield. Damage, crowd control, turrets, barricades, decoys - you have everything you need. +Straightforward story. Even if you haven't played Girls Frontline and doesn't know the lore you can understand what is going on. You know what you have to do - make out of Caucasus Mountains alive. But how will you do it? And who survive in the end? +Visual novel part of the game has some great CGs and backgrounds. And Chibi models are EXTREMELY expressive. +Mission variety. From normal extermination and boss fights to stealth, base defences, guerilla warfare, puzzles, almost every map offers some fresh idea or gimmick. +Secrets! Secret collectibles, secret skips, secret options to make the level 10x easier. +/- Stealth. Not gonna lie, it really depends on the map. Some of it is fun and challenging, some of it requires you to savescum every turn for an hour to achieve "the intended" way if you want to get your S-rank. And until chapter 4 you usually dont have the means to go guns blazing instead. Thank god we have Mendo and his silencing strike. - Now I am frustrated that Girls Frontline 2 doesn't use any of Reverse Collapse ideas in map and enemy design.
Bought because I am a fan of tactical RPGs and it was on sale. Had low expectations. Devs previous game is a gacha? Not a fan of this kind of chibi art style. No english voice acting expect bad translation. Even if translation is decent surely subpar trope filled low effort anime slop story with cringe dialogue and adults that talk like 10 year olds. Prepared to play for an hour and refund. Surely. SURELY? 124 hours played. BUY THIS GAME.
