The game is fun if they fix the glitches. For example, you play and intercept the ball, and it shows that you intercepted it, but then suddenly the ball goes back to the player you intercepted it from, and you can't receive the ball, and the player gets stuck. The game is also silly; it doesn't care about the ball, it only cares about the player. The ball itself might intercept, but it doesn't intercept even though you touched it in the screenshot. It doesn't intercept because it pressed the spacebar. So, I intercepted it first, right? No, it doesn't work. And there are many more glitches that happen in every game. On top of all that, this is the most ping-dependent game. And they haven't added a single server in the Middle East, or even one nearby. They have over nine servers and not one in the Middle East?

Ihatethisgame Rematch: If someone asked me to describe Rematch in one sentence, I’d say this: it somehow took the world’s most popular sport and turned it into one of the most miserable gaming experiences ever created. Calling it a soccer game is generous. It feels more like a social experiment to see how long players can tolerate pure frustration before uninstalling. The passing system is a complete disaster. You can aim directly at your teammate who’s standing five feet away, and somehow the ball ends up traveling to a defender on the other side of the field. It’s like every player has the vision of someone wearing a blindfold. At this point, flipping a coin would be a more reliable passing mechanic. Then there’s the shooting. Lining up a perfect shot means absolutely nothing because the game has already decided that your striker is apparently allergic to the goal. Open net? Doesn’t matter. One-on-one with the keeper? Good luck. Somehow the ball always finds a way to miss, hit the post, or turn into the weakest shot known to mankind. It feels less like you’re shooting a soccer ball and more like you’re kicking a balloon filled with disappointment. Ball control might actually be the worst part. Every first touch looks like the player has never seen a soccer ball before. Professional athletes suddenly turn into toddlers chasing a beach ball. Dribbling feels like you’re controlling a shopping cart with three broken wheels while your opponents move like they’re on ice skates. And don’t even get me started on the graphics. They somehow look both outdated and unfinished at the same time. The animations are stiff, the movement looks awkward, and the entire game feels like it escaped from a beta build that should’ve never seen the light of day. The matchmaking is the cherry on top of this disaster. There is apparently no skill-based matchmaking whatsoever. Brand-new players get thrown into lobbies with people who have hundreds of hours in the game. It’s like teaching someone how to swim by dropping them into the middle of the ocean during a hurricane. Nobody has fun except the sweatlords farming easy wins. To make things even worse, this game takes up 7.78 gigabytes of storage for absolutely no reason. Out of every game I’ve ever downloaded, these are easily the worst 7.78 gigabytes I’ve ever sacrificed on my console. Every megabyte feels like it was downloaded just to waste my time. And somehow they have the audacity to charge money for it. Buying Rematch isn’t an investment—it’s paying for disappointment. There are free games with more polish, better gameplay, and developers who seem to actually understand what soccer looks like. If you’re thinking about buying this game, do yourself a favor and spend your money literally anywhere else. What makes Rematch even worse is that it constantly feels like it’s fighting the player. Every pass, every shot, every touch of the ball feels like a gamble. Winning doesn’t feel rewarding—it feels accidental. Losing doesn’t feel like you got outplayed—it feels like the game actively wanted you to suffer. In the end, Rematch isn’t just a bad soccer game—it’s a masterclass in how to ignore everything that makes sports games enjoyable. The passing is awful, the shooting is inconsistent, the ball control is painful, the graphics are underwhelming, and the matchmaking is a complete joke. If frustration were a video game, it would be called Rematch. It doesn’t just miss the goal—it kicks the ball into the parking lot and anyway

Rematch è un gran bel gioco, fatto bene, con un gameplay che a livello di meccaniche è una bomba e porta un sacco di innovazione, quindi su questo nulla da dire e si meriterebbe un voto altissimo. Il problema vero però è la community di tossici che ci gira dentro. Ora, io lo so che gli sviluppatori non possono fare i miracoli o controllare il cervello della gente, ma qui stiamo rasentando il ridicolo, perché non è possibile che la squadra avversaria ti segna al primo minuto e poi per tutto il resto della partita fa melina e solo per vincere e farti salire un ictus. È un atteggiamento assurdo, e la cosa che è che i creatori di Rematch non muovono un dito e non fanno assolutamente nulla a riguardo per punire sta gente. Ma la perla vera sono le chat rapide, perché c'è sempre il solito disagiato di turno che, non appena sbagli una singola cosa, si mette a spammare "OTTIMO LAVORO!" con un sarcasmo che fa veramente venire le malattie. Ma dico io, visto che i report non funzionano, perché non mettete delle frasi che siano effettivamente utili per il gameplay? Invece di lasciare spazio a queste provocazioni da cerebrolesi, basterebbe inserire comandi tattici veri, cose sensate tipo "Ritornate a difendere!" oppure "Andate avanti!", così almeno la chat servirebbe a coordinarsi invece di essere solo una cosa per insulti passivo aggressivi. È un peccato, perché se solo arginassero questi elementi che chiaramente hanno subito traumi da piccoli e adesso devono fare i deviati mentali online, Rematch sarebbe un gioco da 10 pieno.
