So the graphics are very much reminiscent of the actual show. Ruby herself looks really good but environments are still very pre-alpha stale. Combat feels finicky to me and almost switches between smooth and super twitchy. But the sound assets available bring the currently ok combat up a notch.

Those are my initial feelings so far. I don't love it or hate it, and I do understand that this is a pre-alpha so of course it didn't play exceptionally well. But so far I'm loving the base for them to build upon and I still believe RWBY as a game will be very worthwhile. I do want to see Weiss, Blake, and Yang be playable at least. I also still want to know what the point of the game will be. Will it just be the story we already have seen in the form of a video game? Will it be inbetween episodes? Or will it feature a new standalone story? I want to know becaus just wandering around killing stuff without some sort of goal in sight doesn't entertain me for that long.
