RWBY Arrowfell Switch NSP Free Download Unfitgirl Let me say, before anything else in this review, that I am a huge fan of RWBY. Though I only got into it relatively recently, it has very quickly carved out a sizable space in my thoughts, and as such I was very excited to learn of an upcoming title by WayForward, of all people, which gave me hope despite the less than stellar quality of previous attempts at adapting the series into video games. I say this to make it clear that I am not the sort of person with a distaste for RWBY founded on nothing but second-hand knowledge and preconceived notions, and that I am not approaching RWBY: Arrowfell from a place of bad faith when I say Arrowfell is designed as a 2D action platformer with the absolute lightest possible degree of metroidvania elements. The player assumes control of the titular team RWBY – Ruby, Weiss, Blake, and Yang – with the ability to switch between the four of them at any moment as they adventure through the kingdom of Atlas and its surrounding lands fighting monsters and organized crime and trying to unravel a mysterious plot. Each character plays just a little different thanks to ranged and melee attacks which differ between them on damage per hit, attack rate, range, etc, and each has access to a unique ability in their semblance – a sort of personal superpower most characters in the show have, for those unfamiliar. Each semblance has applications in both combat and traversal, from Ruby’s dash-dodge to Weiss’ summonable exploding platforms to Blake’s entire second Blake and Yang’s ground-pound.

Switching things up and using the characters’ powers fluidly is the main thing that keeps the gameplay from getting stale over the course of its six to seven hour runtime. While you can get through just fine by sticking to one huntress and button mashing your way through fights, each character is genuinely fun to use in slightly different ways, and hot-swapping on the fly feels pretty badass. Unfortunately, there’s lots of little things that act as detractors to the experience. For starters, the whole team’s health bar is shared – not necessarily a bad thing by itself, but giving everyone separate health could have incentivized switching between characters frequently as a means of managing the team and added a bit more complexity. Additionally, characters’ ranged attacks are directly linked to health; in order to shoot, you need to spend some health, which of course makes you more vulnerable to follow ups from nearby enemies. Again, this is not a bad design choice on its own – it’s a good one, even, as it adds a layer of risk-vs-reward thinking to the player’s actions, but it also serves to further highlight the missed opportunity. Compound these things with the actual annoyance of upgrades to characters’ defense and the amount of health they automatically regenerate being specific to each of them – rather than shared – and it becomes difficult to ignore the ways in which annihilating Grimm and gangsters might have been tightened up and made more interesting. Still, it’s hard to deny the satisfaction that comes with putting skill points into the team’s attributes, even if skill points are the only collectible the player ever receives to reward exploration.

RWBY Arrowfell With skill points to be acquired which you can use to power up your characters, making each one more unique seems like a missed opportunity.

The developers behind Arrowfell, WayForward, are best known for their Shantae series, which are also metroidvania-type platformers. The DNA of Shantae, and in particularly of Half-Genie Hero, is very evident in this title, albeit somewhat simplified. Rather than one contiguous game world, as many metroidvania games have, RWBY: Arrowfell is comprised of separate bite-sized levels that are far more linear than much of the genre. The upgrades which expand mobility and the capacity for exploration are scarce, with only one upgrade per semblance that are all received by roughly the halfway point of the game. While exploring the levels, finding skill points, and deciding what attributes in which character to pour them into is still fun – thanks in part to the inclusion of damage numbers that Go Up over the course of the campaign – it once again feels like something that could have been better. As far as the presentation goes, I’m of two minds. On the one hand, the visuals are good at capturing The Vibes of the series despite being a departure from the art style of the show itself, and the relationships and banter amongst the members of Team RWBY are as charming as ever – in this way, Arrowfell should serve as a decent holdover for fans who are suffering in these last few months of the series’ current lengthy hiatus. The gameplay animations are smooth and stylish, the little victory poses the team do when you find items are adorable, and seeing Penny again was equal parts heartbreaking and heartwarming.

On the other hand, the story of the game doesn’t feel up to par with the writing quality the show usually displays. Nothing that occurs feels meaningful to the broader plot, returning fan-favorite characters such as Winter, Marrow, and Qrow have minimal presence, while the newcomers make only brief appearances that do not inspire confidence they will ever even be mentioned again. Even Team BRIR, the rival huntresses introduced in Arrowfell, feel like non-characters, barely in the game at all, really, which was especially disappointing given how they were positioned as a major draw for it. While the animated cutscenes are fully voiced by the cast fans know and love, they are few and far between, and it makes the fact that other dialogue isn’t voiced even more disappointing – dare I say it even feels somewhat suspicious given recent allegations regarding Rooster Teeth’s payment and general treatment of talent, voice or otherwise. Finally, the music is underwhelming and for the most part unmemorable, which is particularly bizarre for a licensed game where both the series it belongs to and the developers who made it are known for their scoring. In the end though, none of RWBY: Arrowfell’s flaws make it a disappointment. Though I was hoping for better than what we got, the history the series (and licensed properties in general) has with video games tempered my expectations, and even something mediocre feels like a win.

And there are other issues with RWBY: Arrowfell, too.

While it may not be on par with some of Wayforward’s other work, their experience with the genre let them put forth a solid title that should make a good afternoon or two’s worth of entertainment for RWBY superfans. And, let’s be honest: isn’t that the main thing to hope for with a game like this Licensed video games don’t have a great track history. For every masterpiece like GoldenEye 007 there are ten disasters like Superman 64. Yet WayForward, the development team behind RWBY: Arrowfell, an action game based on the hit animated series RWBY, has done some fairly good work in the area, turning in decent titles based on TMNT, Batman, Adventure Time, and others. Indeed, one of the indie studio’s best games, Aliens: Infestation, is licensed. Can WayForward, then, do for RWBY what it did for Aliens? Arrowfell takes place during RWBY Volume 7 and features an original, canonical story from show writers Kerry Shawcross, Miles Luna, and Eddy Rivas, in collaboration with WayForward. It follows the four members of Team RWBY — Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, and Yang Xiao Long — who discover a strange artifact that draws monsters called Grimm, endangering the people of the northern continent Solitas. Soon the team of newly-licensed huntresses are exploring the far reaches of Solitas to uncover an evil conspiracy. Licensed video games don’t have a great track history.

The fetch quest structure is the same throughout the game; the levels, while numerous, feel indistinct and samey; and the game leans a little too hard on tedious ambush rooms, where the RWBY team is locked in a single screen until it defeats every last spawning Grimm. It’s never a drag, thanks to the game’s snappy controls and fast-paced, breezy action, but also never anything special. That’s mainly because the game refuses to elaborate upon some interesting ideas. Take Semblances, for example. These are the special skills unique to each member of Team RWBY. Ruby can dash across gaps and through enemies; Weiss can summon platforms that disintegrate into deadly shards.

Still, despite all these issues, you can have some fun with RWBY: Arrowfell, just perhaps in small doses.

Blake can summon copies of herself; and Yang can ground pound to break barriers and displace monsters. Since players can swap between all four team members at any time, each and every one of these skills is at their disposal, both in problem-solving situations and in combat. Unfortunately, the puzzles in Arrowfell are pushovers, rarely requiring outside-the-box thinking or dexterity, and the combat scenarios almost never demand constant swapping of characters. At one point mid-game uncle Qrow urges the team to use their “Semblances in tandem”, but it’s simply not necessary, especially if you max out one or two characters with Skill Points. With an in-canon story, original cutscenes and even a new song by Jeff Williams featuring the vocals of Casey Lee Williams, it’s about as true to the show as you can get. Though while playing as Ruby, Weiss, Blake and Yang is initially entertaining, the more you play of RWBY: Arrowfell, the more you’re likely to get aggravated by its flaws. The story begins with the team finding a mysterious device, which is seemingly attracting Grimm. Putting it out of commission, they then seek to find out more about it, such as its origins. Soon they get caught up in yet another escapade, one which even sees them encounter a new group of Huntresses going by the moniker of Team BRIR. Anyone familiar with the work of WayForward won’t be too surprised by the gameplay offered in RWBY: Arrowfell.

It’s essentially a 2D side-scrolling action game, with light RPG and Metroidvania elements to add a bit more complexity and depth. Across numerous chapters, you’ll visit numerous areas via a world map. And in each area you’ll be engaging in a mix of platforming and combat. The problem is, it all feels rather basic. You’re able to switch between the four members of Team RWBY at will, making use of their unique Semblances. Ruby, for example, is the only character that can dash, while Weiss can create a magical platform that doubles up as an attack. Outside of that though, they all share a limited moveset that’s only marginally tweaked for each character. With skill points to be acquired which you can use to power up your characters, making each one more unique seems like a missed opportunity. As it is, you may as well just focus on powering up the character you like the most first, quickly making them a force to be reckoned with. The health system reinforces this: all four characters share a pool of lives, so it’s not as if you’re forced to switch between them to see through a troublesome boss fight, for example. And there are other issues with RWBY: Arrowfell, too. Much of it feels like a series of fetch quests; you’ll be travelling here, there and everywhere to either collect a sequence of items required to progress the story, or to simply please a character you’ve met. And then there’s the fact that while you’ll be gaining.

Enhancing your abilities so that you can access new areas of maps you’ve already visited, there are no minimaps to help you navigate. Still, despite all these issues, you can have some fun with RWBY: Arrowfell, just perhaps in small doses. The controls are responsive, and at times it is exciting to be exploring a new area, seeing what it has in store. It’s the game’s boss fights that are a real highlight though, challenging you to remember their patterns and employ skill and strategy to over come their dastardly attacks. If you’re an RWBY fan, there’s a good chance you’ll enjoy RWBY: Arrowfell on the whole, despite some frustrations. We’d say it’s even accessible to newcomers, too, though they might be a little less enamoured with it due to not being familiar with the characters and the world they inhabit. It’s not a bad game by any means, but it soon gets repetitive – and oversights, like no minimap being available, introduce unnecessary frustration. Skill Points represents another good idea not executed to its full potential. You’ll find these items in treasure chests around Solitas or for sale from traveling merchants. You can use them to boost the stats of any of the four heroines in four separate categories: melee attack, defense, energy heal, and ranged attack. This level of customization is great, but some stats are simply more impactful than others. Blake with maxed out melee attack and defense should be able to mop the floor with any baddie, particularly when she can double or triple her damage output via her clone Semblance.RAILGRADE Switch NSP
