Let's go back four years to 2019. It's August 20th, and Remnant: From the Ashes has launched on PC (and consoles as well). The co-workers I convinced to preorder the game and I all jumped in together for a fantastic coop experience. We spent hours taking on worlds filled with numerous enemies and bosses alike.
A game based on solid shooting mechanics blended with souls-like difficulty. Sprinkle a little coop, a fun mix of classes, weapon abilities, and procedural generation, and that's Remnant. It's just dumb fun with a recipe that gives players a reason to return and keep playing. So, did Remnant 2 recapture those feelings for me? So far, yes. But not without some issues you need to be aware of.
