As a Rocket League player, who doesn’t like FIFA or PES, this game looks very interesting. In RL there is an indicator on where the ball is and the ball cam works really well. There might be some UI elements left out for the trailer.
The animations are fine enough. I don’t crave a soccer simulator, quite the opposite. If the controls are tight, the animations might need to suffer from it and that’s totally fine in my books.
So I’ll save the judgment until I’ve played the game.
And the ball is bigger and slower/more floaty than an actual football—it’s neither in this game.
I think the 3rd person perspective and RL-looking field make you think it’s RL with people, but it’s just PES with the camera set to 3rd person.
FIFA is arcade-y as shit, this is why PES fans hate it. It still looked like shit.
Like, I obviously haven’t played the game, so IDK for sure if it’s fun or not. You’re doing the correct thing saving your judgment. All I’m saying is it hasn’t shown anything new/revolutionary, and that rubs me off the wrong way.
I played the open beta. It arrogantly reintroduces gameplay problems PES and FIFA resolved long ago:
And it does not add anything new in terms of gameplay other than removing fouls, offsides, and throw-ins/corners/goalkicks, which literally was a mode in FIFA98.
Rocket League can get away with some of that because you essentially play with s balloon, not a football; whereas Rematch feels like an awkward version of the 3rd-person camera in PES.
