To me, Ready Or Not is more of a spiritual successor to SWAT rather than a ripoff.
In a lot of ways, it’s an evolution because it deals with current topics and modern technologies. It also feels grittier than I remember SWAT being.
You are right thats what it would be called, but it doesnt do anything to be a “spiritual successor”. It’s just a modern copy of it, even worse in places, definitely in terms of quality. I wouldnt be surprised if the assets are just from a marketplace. I left some more thoughts elsewhere in the comment thread and they certainly love their “modern technologies”, with AI generated art ingame.
They saw how popular Ready or Not was and thought to themselves “didn’t we used to make a game like that?”
Yeah, it was Rainbow Six, not Ghost Recon lol.
I seem to recall Ghost recon being adjacent. At least in the early days.
How is Ready or Not popular? It’s such a potato SWAT ripoff.
SWAT 4 came out 20 years ago
Yeah, exactly.
