Does anybody still play this? Any fan-made content being made? It would be awesome if we could get a team together to improve on the second half of the game!
@AndySlayer as far as i know no mode or fan-made files exist, it was a good game it's still 1 of the few games of the old days that i still wanna play every now and then. Really hope that there would be a revenant 2 but hehe more than 10 years have past.
I agree with most of people here...I love this game, the action, the story, and the humor. I love the combination of the magic powers, weapons and armor. If this game ever come out again, I will make sure I make enough backup copies to last me for decades.
The story: ancient emperor conquers the world with the aid of an evil god, but when the god asks for his beloved as a sacrifice, he flips him off. He dies and spends eternity in hell. Thousands of years later a wizard revives him as a Revenant and sends him into a mission to save the local lords daughter.
But she looks suspiciously like his lost love and he is having flashbacks about his past. And just when he is about to rescue her....
This game was unfinished, incomplete, rushed and buggy. And STILL it is one of the greatest games I ever played. It pains me to imagine how good it might have been. Just imagine how Revenant could have turned out if they took their time with it and worked out every detail with the attention a game like Baldur's Gate had. Might have been THE best game ever for me. Still a favorite, without doubt!
loved the backstory that there is no heaven for simply being good and nice, only an underworld where souls go to forget their past lives, and only when they have forgotten can they ascend to paradise.
either that, or be plucked from the underworld before attaining their rightful place and become a Revenant.
@theliberator1 The reality of Revenant was worse. There WAS a heaven, but only after spending time in ragnarok (which was like hell and purgatory combined) for sins (with the time trapped there depending ones sins) you were released. But then, the Gods who supervised this (and let people out of purgatory) died, or left, don't remember. Long story short; EVERYONE was trapped for eternity upon dying, for even the best had some minor sins. I remember so well because it gave me the chills then.
hi i played this game 9 years ago i would play this game again but its too bad cos my monitor are 19 inchs while the game only 640x480...but if you or someone else know about high resolution patch for this game as diablo 2 modification had it i would be appreciate it :D
One of the coolest games i ever played and i really think it beats Diablo 2 in graphics and combat skills.But anyway i love them so fucking much,and by the way anyone knows any news about the CINEMATIX STUDIOS?
I remember playing this game on an Eidos Demo, but like many of the awesome games on that disk (aside from Thief and Daikatana), I couldn't find it in stores.
Unfortunately I couldn't get a game together for Revenant, would like to if anyone is still interested. As for the game itself - it's pretty unique , the combat is something other RPG's haven't done - its interactive, it's compelling and its fun. The game itself is bugged pretty badly and the actual plot wasn't finished (the game was rushed) so its not surprising this game has been forgotten, but its overall virtuous and solid, the parts that were finished that is.
i don't know why yet but it was not working ... it this situation i must say i'm glad i playes tht version of game. It disapointed me heavily i must say... unlike the game. It was awesome :D
haha i remember those friggin ninjas! you would finish them with a reverse jumped kick in the face^^ and you were able to crush spiders even if they were bigger than sea turtules
not really :D since Diablo didn't have any sword-slinging, kick-boxing, pro-wrestling monks :D hehehe , i cant wait for diablo 3 tho :D its still TBA :D im expecting ALOT in diablo 3 :D
The game I have is SoldOut Software Inc - says its not compatible with XP, so I therefore presume it wont work on Vista - I'd love to reinstall and play this again; anyone tried on Vista yet?
You can buy this on Amazon for very cheap. I found it and still play it. I also bought Thief and Thief 2. If you don't know the Thief series, check it out. It's a rarity not a lot of people got into.
Interesting to see this video again. It's been almost ten years since we finished the game, and well.. I thought it turned out pretty well. Playing it now, it's really fun. I love the way the combat turned out, and the boss fights. I'm at Lucas Arts now and most of the other staff are still in the industry working at EA and other studios. Shouts to all the Revenant team if they ever find themselves here.. BC - Mr. Revenant
hey im stuck in the caves where do i go in there. iv goten that bottle key thing and have goten the 3rd scroll that guy who died is and dont know where do go next...
if it crashes at the beginning, download the intro fix, it skips through the intro and the rest is smooth altho as usual occasional glitches with revenant. and run it on patch 1.22 all the other versions are way 2 buggy.
However when I finished the game, I didnt get the ending movie..i suspect the itro fix but cant load the game without it sooo ...fuck... heh all good tho, ill think of something
this game made me fall in love with RPG's i have never found an rpg that had such a good combat system and story behind it, not until world of warcraft and elder scrolls, games like that.
no... and sadly revenant 1 was poorly made since under its construction 1 of the companies got bankrobt, and edios had to release it when it was 50% done...
which is a pain in the ass since its a really cool game :SS
best game when it comes to Fighting and Spell combos...
Skyrim, Witcher everything can go down the toilet compared to this gameplay !

I wished that more games had the combination of cool boss fights, self-deprecating humor, fight game mechanics and magic system as The Revenant.
Cosidering all the remakes and sequels as of late, this would be a great game for today's console. That and Space Rogue.
