Only 82 minutes in but it's scratching that Survivors genre itch quite well. Adding a Diablo style loot system raises the player incentive even further. I can definitely feel the addictive quality here. I'm sure it will only improve over time.

7.5/10 - Has its flaws, but the potential is there. Just needs some QoL features, more content, some balancing, and further QA/bugfixing. To me, clearly one of the BETTER and rather more promising Survivor-likes. Fully recommending it for this price tag!

Pros:
+ The Diablo-esque Loot- and Craft-mechanic fits in this genre quite well! It's very much 1:1 cloned from Diablo 4. But that's not a bad thing. I enjoy it a lot!
+ Not too much vFx and bullet hell; actually rather good readability of what's going on on the screen; far better than most of the others Survivors-likes. Nice Dodge-roll, too! It never felt like I was losing overview or control. Great enemy density and vFx balancing!
+ Nice graphics. Nothing super special, but some parts (eg. the vFx of the boss attacks) look fantastic!
+ Great macro balancing! There's always significant progress between two runs. Not too much, but also not too little. To me, many other Survivors-likes feel too grindy. R.I.P. gets this just right!

Cons:
- Balancing issues (some Techs and Synergies seem totally OP (eg. +2 bullets, casually tripling your weapon damage and its procs), while a whole item/skill category (Throw/Grenades) feels just totally underpowered)
- many UX bugs when playing with a controller. Some are minor. Some require you to use the mouse to continue playing. But one issue is particularly annoying: If you just pressed Dash before you Level Up, the Ban-Function is pre-selected when picking a Tech/Skill. Too many times did I BAN a Tech instead of picking it. Several runs were severely impacted.
- some UI bugs overall. The game summary screen shows the Damage Sources, which of course is very important. But (at least in the English translation), in some cases it is not clear, what the name of the Damage Source relates to (which skill/perk/weapon).
- some QoL features are severly missing (eg. the possibility to view the picked Techs, the inventory, or the stats when deciding between choices, esp. during the Level Up / Tech Up.. what Chase-Techs do I still have, again? How many Movement Speed Bonus? I need those stats to make my decisions. It's a lot of unneccesary "remember or regret", right now.)
- aiming with grenades and some of the special skills is a pure hazzle when using the controller! The crosshair movement nearly renders it impossible to utilize some of the Techs.
- Skill Tree serves the same mechanics as the items. Neither unique perks nor exciting synergies result from the Skill Tree, which feels rather bland.

@Other Reviewers: Shame on you for voting down the whole game, just because the German translation is not complete on day 1 (just change it to English!??), or because the game is yet partially lacking balancing or content (it's still early access. and it's not too bad or too empty for an Early Access title. It's just about right.). tbh I'm not sure why Survivors-lGamers are so merciless, today. This is not another bad clone. And neither is it too expensive. Refund the game. Get some ice cream. Maybe even cry. But don't spread misinformation that this is just another bland Survivors-clone. (Also, if you really think there are "SO many way better Survivors-likes out there".. feel free to share them in the comments, please! :D)

***Don't buy if you are steam deck user***

It entirely froze my stream deck at its first run and the only thing worked was a forced reboot. The optimizations of this game is no joke

Set everything to low for a second run and got a fatal error pop up just 3 minutes in.
