Jul 20, 2023Indeed, Remnant 2 will be much more appreciated in multiplayer than alone. The customization possibilities will be multiplied (three characters with double archetypes, it's starting to do things!) And the exploration is made less bland since everyone trains from one place to another. The boss fights are all the more interesting to maneuver without being more complex. Otherwise, Remnant 2 remains quite linear and complex to appreciate, especially since some problems not corrected for the first episode are back. Something difficult to digest four years later. It is therefore difficult to turn to Remnant 2 for a solo experience. However, it shows its full potential in multiplayer to those looking for demanding games that will satisfy their thirst for customization.

Jul 27, 2023It is clear that Remnant 2 has made some concessions. This is particularly true as regards the narrative and the rushed main plot. On the other hand, the gameplay has been enriched, particularly during boss battles. Compared to the previous episode, the art direction is far more polished and immersive. Similarly to its predecessor, Remnant 2 is a 3rd person shooter with classic but effective RPG mechanics, sprinkled with a dash of Dark Souls for a welcome and controlled challenge. Our first run lasted around twenty hours, and our feeling at the end of the final sequence was close to: “already!?” The adventure mode and procedural world offer great replayability, and we cannot wait to get back to the game when future DLC will come.
