    Suffers from severe performance issues and a hefty amount of bugs, especially in multiplayer, but a great game at its core nonetheless, improving on almost every aspect of the first one.

    Leaps and bounds over the original. Requires a pretty beefy rig to run smoothly as expected of an Unreal 5 Engine game but I have that beefy rig so my score is not impacted.

    Do you follow the latest releases? Consistently playing different games or new releases? Then thats harder to say. This is the type of gamer i am now so my thoughts are complicated. My experience with this game was soured at the start. Note there is no set world order but getting N'erud first really made it feel like a slog thru a barren mono-colored world after seeing so much about how the zones were visually interesting and unique and even screenshots of detailed worlds. This was such a let down. If this happens to you, rest assured that it will end. If you are fine with the zone well thats even better.

    A lot of my disappointment was based on early impressions. I heard great things about the bosses. Yes, some were pretty good but most were either fine or boring with the same mechanics ive seen lots of times. If i went in blind im sure i would have enjoyed it more. The gun play with soulslike elements is fun. They nailed that foundation and i hope they continue making these games because that could lead to a masterpiece of a game in the future and nobody else has done it nearly as well as they have.    … Expand

    There are a good amount of different classes that allow for so much variance in game-play either solo or multiplayer.

    Moving to the story. It's a straight forward story that also offers variance based on where you are and what parts of the game you get generated into you're play-through. This offers a tremendous amount of variance each time you play the game. If you aren't happy with a current play-through, no problem, re-roll your campaign and get the parts you desire.

    Overall the game is challenging and is so enjoyable and one of the better games of the year.    … Expand

    so as a huge mega fan of the first game i was overly hyped after they announced the sequel and after 30 hours in i must say that the game is well.... good but also bad

    pros:

    - the game looks superb and also doesn't crash and now can finally not be called from the crashes

    - the gunplay feels great most of the weapons are just *chefs kiss*

    - the level designers need to get a raise really great level design and every new map feels super unique

    - a lot of cool bosses and now most of them aren't just bullet sponges and almost every boss has a cool unique game mechanic like a mini mmo raid that you need to do while fighting them. it adds a lot to the boss fights and actually gives a lot of character and personality to every fight and not just shoot and win

    - the build diversity is a lot more focused thanks to the job system they added. you can easily create a melee build or switch jobs to something else and have more personality with your own gameplay.

    - the secrets and the puzzle are a warm welcome as always ,adds a lot more depth to the game.

    - your character as a personality and finally talks and interacts with the co op partners and npcs and now its not just random shout outs that feel out of place

    as you can see the devs doubled down on most of the things that made the first game special and made almost everything perfect almost everything , there are a lot of things that just felt.. bad

    cons:

    - the job system, although now more focused feels out of place and restrictive in the first game everything was open which led people to make a lot of make shift cool builds but now you need to follow a very specific way of play because of the job system. plus most of the jobs are out there for you to find which becomes just a giant chore. also after all that you have to level up your job which also just becomes a giant chore to do.

    - why almost every unique item i find is a ring it drove me crazy to finally figure out a puzzle and get a lack luster ring for it plus why is there barely any armor sets in the game and why do i need to pre order the game to get cool armor sets WHY JUST NOT ADD IT TO THE GAME GUNFIRE ?!?!?!

    - the ending was meh and the final boss was ok he felt hard just for the sake off didn't feel special at all really just a lot of build up for a mini dragon that hits like a truck

    - why is the main hub so huge found myself just running most of the time back and forth for basic items
    plus the hub lacks secrets and cool areas like in the first game felt like an oversized nothing

    - i know that technically there is more maps in this game but 3 giant maps labyrinth and final area felt short this game deserves a lot more in my opinion

    - the story was very meh and felt like a bait for dlc where did ford go why did he activate the portal it all felt very much rushed and lackluster

    - the maps even after re roll felt like they are the same not a lot of diversity in the re rolls and after 30 hours it feels like i completed 80% or even 90% of the game

    - the game lost its unique thing with alt kills to bosses i was very disappointed to see that the alt kills are just small secrets here and there and not special cool ways like in the first game

    in conclusion the game is fun especially with friends but plays a lot different from the first one in my opinion slightly for the worst

    i do hope the dlc makes the second game better like the 2 dlcs made the first 1 a lot better which leads me to my final score a 7.5 out of 10 i do recommend this game but at a discount or wait it out for the master edition with all the dlcs    … Expand

    This is one of those games where you get actively weaker when you upgrade your gear. Yeah, that's right, enemies scale with your upgrade level.

    The RNG progression also is just a stupid marketing gimmick only done so the devs can brag "how many secrets our world have" - those are not secrets, just a RNG slot machine. It hurts the experience massively. And no, it does not make me wanna replay the same level 30 times so i can get the desired boss randomly spawn for me this time, maybe. The incompetent devs completely misunderstood what in Diablo 2s procedural levels made the game great and overdid it in an insanely bad way. The combat is again, just like in the first game, a chore. While the mere act of shooting by itself is undoubtedly fun, everything else about the combat drags it down. Overall, a **** game that i cannot recommend to anybody.
    And no, this is not "Dark Souls" with guns. Its insulting to FromSoft's masterpiece to even put this AA jank trash in the same sentence as Dark Souls.    … Expand

    Starting with the good. The story is interesting but takes a bit to start. The world-building and level design is insanely good. It's beautiful, a lot of variety and immersive.
    Weapons play differently and each one has it particularly, same for the classes and dual classes is really fun to try to mix and match.
    Secrets and dungeons are really fun.
    You can reroll your campaign or play an adventure mode that let you replay a biome you previously played but arranged differently with new story points and dungeons.

    The game was 8 or 9 for me at the point.

    Now for the bad. The scaling is bad. It takes into account your 2 highest classes levels and 3 highest weapons levels. And you cannot scale down only up.
    It means you better level your new weapons if you want to test them and see if you like them which is already time consuming just to test and play a bit with new weapons. Meaning upgrading your gears makes the game harder with no going back.
    However, the more you "level up" the more the enemies do damage. But you can't level your armor so you are forced to use gear that increases damage resistance instead of using what you want.

    I kinda stopped at this point, I had fun with the game but it wasn't anymore when I reached level 10+. Continued to 14, and got near the final boss but since I wasn't having fun I decided to stop altogether, which is annoying since I had fun with weapons and builds.    … Expand

    When the game initially dropped, it was definitely poorly optimized but now that the patches have gone through, I rarely drop below my monitor threshold of 144 fps. Anyone that wasn't and still isn't able to get 100+ frames on their 4090s needs to learn more about their machine and how to optimize game settings.

    It's unfortunate that this game got as much hate as it did, because the devs have been very communicative and have clearly doubled down on making this game into something great.

    Realistically, this game should be about an 8. Nothing ground breaking but a very very fun game. Giving it a 9 due to all the excessive hate though.    … Expand

    First off, this game is not for everyone. But what game is? I'm going to list some attributes and feelings and observations on Remnant II, both good and bad. It will be interesting to see what triggers people who played and disliked the game, and what excites people who played and really enjoyed the game.

I'm going to list some attributes and feelings and observations on Remnant II, both good and bad. It will be interesting to see what triggers people who played and disliked the game, and what excites people who played and really enjoyed the game.

    THE BAD

    Difficulty - While there are 4 different levels of difficulty, the game is punishing at times. Not because the game has bad or cheap mechanics, it is because you just don't have the skill or patience to get better.

    Graphics - If you don't like every zone to look basically the same and have a cohesive aesthetic, then go play Tears of the Kingdom or Elden Ring. This game offers multiple different biomes and they all have their own look and feel. It could be very jarring to normies.

    Music - If you are not a music lover or don't appreciate when music moves your soul, then please stay away from this game. Each area and every boss fight (even alternate versions...oops spoiler) have a soaring and emotional soundtrack that captures the bond between you and your next challenge.

    Level Design and Layout - This game will suck for you if you are the type that hated when the layout of Orgrimmar completely changed after Cataclysm and you had to relearn where everything was. Don't play this game if you like replayability and a fresh playthrough on your "new game +".

    Story and Dialog - Christopher Nolan must have helped write the witty dialog branches and overall story. At no point does the story hold your hand, and it makes you think about what is happening around you. Ughhhh! When I beat a game, I want everything explained to me on a silver platter. If I wanted mystery and lore, and had to interact with NPC's and story cues scattered around the environment, I would go play Balder's Gate 3.

    Game Optimization, Stability and Bugs - I personally had zero problems playing even during early access before the first huge hotfix.
    Here are my PC stats: Game ready updated GFORCE drivers, Windows 11 with no malware or Pronhub viruses, I don't have the TEMU app downloaded and I spent a little extra money (still $30 cheaper than Lightfall deluxe) on the Deluxe Edition so I could make sure that they let me download a premium copy from Steam.

    THE GOOD

    This game f*cking rocks! I have had an absolute blast playing mostly solo. It has been dam hard at times, but the sense of satisfaction I have after I finish a rough encounter (Nightmare Laby Cube fight, I'm looking right at YOU) is so exhilarating. The graphics are gorgeous and the world designs are absolutely stunning. The story leaves a lot of mystery and there are clues and hints at some bigger picture that we can't see just yet. I'm really looking forward to the 3 planned DLC's to flesh out what is really going on and how we are going to kill the Root for good!!! Oh, and the puzzles, secret classes, hidden interactions, alt-boss fights and so much more intrigue have made my 3 playthroughs so much fun. Thank you Gunfire! I loved From the Ashes, and I am a huge fan of 2. This might just be my GOTY. Let's see how Baldur's Gate plays out.    … Expand

    I will start with the one problem I have with the game. Since everything in the game is procedurally generated, you can get stuck with some really BAD zones. I started in the medieval zone, and it was an amazing experience. I won't spoil anything, but it was incredible. Then I spawned an 'adventure' of that same world, and it was AWFUL. It seemed like I got the most frustrating areas all strung together, and I hated it. It was really concerning to me right away, that a new player might be stuck with that world in their main game and just come to hate the game based on that.

    And what I like about the game: Pretty much everything else. Sure some bosses are way harder than others, but it seemed like the required bosses were the easier ones and that is understandable to me. A lot of people are complaining about crashes, and I received one of those in about 20 hours. A lot of people are complaining about performance issues, and the worst I had was sometimes my game would hitch for like 1 second, but it was hardly even a distraction it happened so infrequently. (3070ti laptop)

    Out of the around 25 bosses I remember fighting, only one was kind of meh. The rest were bangers, and had varied mechanics that kept me interested. I even fought a boss that looked VERY similar to another boss, and I was getting ready to be disappointed at fighting the same boss twice, when he pulled out like 5 all new mechanics and absolutely murdered me for 3 hours straight. It was awesome.

    Overall, I have a whole lot of positive experiences with this game and very few negative ones.    … Expand

    I was already skeptical. A souls-like getting a sequel is, at this point, a guarantee that I'm going to be subjected to bull**** stemming from a developer trying to one up the difficulty of their previous game rather than actually make something fun and not frustrating, and that was confirmed for me not even 5 minutes into my first side dungeon with a enemy that takes minimal damage beforeI was already skeptical.

    I intended on persevering out of love for the first game.

    And then I encountered a mini boss in another dungeon whose main attack was to BLIND you by glitching your screen, TELEPORT you, and then proceed to smack you about either itself or with it's minions while you try and re-orient yourself.

Also, the developpers put A CRUCIAL FINAL BOSS ENDING STORY AFTER THE CREDITS CUTSCENE!! So, if we are disconnected or skip.. WE LOST THIS FINAL STORY CUTSCENE AND THE CHOICES/LOOTS COME WITH! I ITSUCKS because they DON'T WARNING before skipping..… Expand

    I thought, to be honest, that the plot part would be bigger, but not the point, we have a good sequel that removed many of the inconveniences and jambs of the original, and this was already enough for many to fall in love with this game. I, however, am ready to evaluate only a little higher than the first part, because development still has room to grow

    I love this game, the art, the gameplay, even though I don't usually like shooters. Build variations feel endless, exploration is fantastic and in-depth, especially when considering team play. Awesome to explore alone, but for a different but equally fun experience, team up easily with friends (not this **** you have to go through in Dark Souls to play together, just click & go).

    I'm soon 100 hours played and that's a rarity for me.

    I see people whine about the plot but the beauty of the plot is that it's much like DS, obscure, but not as obscure as DS. By just playing through the zones you get a general idea of what's going on, but if you take time to read journal notes or look at items, you can discover more. I don't usually enjoy serve-and-eat plots and having to click through a million RP options and stuff, this game does NOT do that which is great - instead it is much more geared towards exploration, tough boss fights, yet somehow the lore of the zones intrigued me and I loved being mystified by it and working out what was going on.

    I'd actually give it 10/10 but there are some glaring performance issues that rear its head at random times, such as certain buffs causing serious framedrops, but in general the game runs well enough for my old ish gaming pc. The dev teams seem on top of the issues and are listening to community for wish list changes and performance updates as well as balancing the classes.    … Expand

    Very average game.
    Good:
    - Visual style and atmosphere. Game looks great, all worlds are have their own style and look unique. - Gameplay is not bad, shooting is fun, classes and abilities are ok. Bad: - Performance. FPS drops. Very bad optimization. - Bad level design, some levels are too big, some are too small. - Difficulty, unplayable in solo, not comfortable in multiplayer. -    Very average game.

    Remnant 2 is not optimized.
    There is nothing revolutionary in the graphics, but low fps in game even on RTX 4090. WTF dev.?
    Developers are lazy asses.
    Don't buy this game. Don't support crappy developers.

    Remnant II is a great evolution of ideas from the first installment, making each adventure feel unique in its own way. It is one of the few Soulslike games with full co-op.

    While it might be convenient shorthand to describe Remnant II as Dark Souls with guns, it must also be said that it is its own genre-defining achievement — a co-op looter shooter that finds its own unique, otherworldly identity without succumbing to the worst instincts of the genre.

    Remnant 2 follows its predecessor to the letter albeit by improving every single aspect. It doesn't really need to innovate the genre, thanks to its utterly satisfying gunplay, myriads of secrets, excellent replayability and a diverse set of levels, enemies and bosses.
