An incomplete piece of good arts.
"An incomplete piece of good arts." This is, in a nutshell, the best way I could describe the game Revenant in a single quote. I bought Revenant on PC back in the days and it's still in my shelf of those games that are "neither good nor bad, but that could have been way better with more love." As many points out, it's a game that starts strong... Really strong! The first few areas and missions show that the game had, at one point some really inspired and talented people in its development crew. The game is challenging, but doable and it's a game that requires you, early on, to make choices in terms of what to equip and what to bring or use. This works as this until the 1/3 of the game where the concept of the game changes from light RPG choices & stats to as much linear as you could get and where you litterally get stronger equipment by simply looking around the area. Each area has, by that point, its own 1 or 2 weapons (all swords) and 1 set of armor that fit perfectly to fight the boss at the end of the area. No mystery nor choices anymore. At that point, the number of quests drop insanely and you can do most of them by simply walking the light-maze like area. At some point, you got 0 reason to visit any previous area. It wouldn't be that much of a bad experience if the ending wasn't as much rushed and butchered. It's litterally like a "that's it, the end" appearing at a really bad time and, unlike most games in this genre, with absolutely 0 replayability or additional challenge. You can't even exit the last area (you're stuck there) and you're simply stuck at that save that precede the last "boss" (if you can call it a boss). There's clear sign that the project was abandonned by the 1/3 of it. So much that the game originally came with an half-baked PvP multiplayer mode with multiple characters, classes and stuff (main game has 1 class and 1 characters). I would give this 1.5 to 2 stars, but as the game comes with a game editor, I give it 3 stars.
