The fact that you can throw up a high five, and if no one responds your character will make a "bruh you left me hanging" gesture is a sign of how much effort was put into the details of this game.
The first one was all around great, I tried to get people to play it but it went under so many peoples radar. Glad to see this one getting more press. If you haven't already, grab the first one (probably cheap now) so you can experience all the great boss fights and boss weapons that you can craft after killing them.
The "fake E3 gameplay roleplay" part from 47:37 made me lose my shit. This was SO accurate and hilarious. These online co-op sessions need to become a thing on this channel.
Totally second this, I loved the vid not just for the game content, but their amazing banter and humor too! Would be a great crew to regularly see play together
They are smart af for choosing you as a sponsor lmao This will surely get to the right public, for starters I played hours of the first game because of you.
i dunno, this is going to the same people that already like this kind of game. so it would be a better sell, but it would also go to people who would already know about it
Funny. I didn't need a youtuber to get me to play the first one. I saw it was a shooter/melee hybrid with a darksouls like vibe and i just bought it on that. No youtubers to tell me what to play or what not to play.
@@abyssalvoid4644 game also has a prequel which visits one or two of the areas from remnant 1 its really cool, and it also gives some backstory to where the protag and final boss from first game hail from. plus that game has such a cool mechanic, basically if you die you get a year older and iirc at a certain age you either lose or it resets really cool concept. its called chronos before the ashes
When that one boss offered to eat you and you said yes, I thought that'd just end up being a short cutscene and death, and then you'd have to go back and pick the "real" option. When instead the game kept going and you had a whole (presumably) different boss fight, I decided that I might just put this on my list. And I'm not even a quarter of the way through the video!
Every world boss has several different ways to go about the fight or even avoid it, like for example if you DO kill the doe in the jungle world you don't have to fight the ravager, and you get a special item that makes all his minions non-hostile when you wear it.
It's a great game for that reason & many others. The fight he chose with Tal'Ratha is the more difficult one, especially on apoc difficulty. Think it gives a melee weapon material, and the other fight gives Nebula which is an awesome sidearm.
I have a question, as someone who cares (somewhat) about the lore of Remnant do I have to beat Remnant from the Ashes 1 to understand the plot, or is it another massive time Skip?
@@dinoshotgun The lore of Remnant is much more clear than Dark Souls and very lore heavy. Meaning, you can read the wiki and acquire all the information you need about pretty much everything.
@@dinoshotgun The plot is paper thin, scientists open up a dimension in some guys dream and let crazy tree monsters in. You start killing them but then find a crystal and go to a bunch of alternate dimensions. The last boss is a giant dragon thing inside the dream of some ancient dude in a dentist chair. Don't worry about it. Story is there but it doesn't matter, this game is all about the shooting. However, i would still highly recommend you play the first one not for the plot but because it fucking rules. Tons of fun. I played completely solo and still had a blast.
This is genuinely one of my favourite shooters. I love how much depth they put into the fights, stages, and secrets. It's also really insanely fun to put together builds, cuz there's so many items you can equip
27:41 I'm pretty sure Pineapple making the jump is an unintended design. I got grabbed and dragged into one of the sewer openings with bent bars by the monster, the screen faded to black then waking up in a corner of that room. Which I imagine is the supposed to be the only way in and then exit from the drop as one of the guys suggested. Pretty funny that Pineapple managed to brute force the jump.
to be clear, it's Gearbox Publishing, which absorbed Perfect World Entertainment (the publisher of Remnant 1) last year. so Gearbox is obviously involved, but this was almost certainly under development before PWE's acquisition by Gearbox. (though I have not found confirmation of this, it very much stands to reason.)
I'm just glad to see they really addressed the trash mob boss fodder problem. I hope this game does well and boosts the developers' reputation even higher
@@counterproductivegaminglotta boss fights in the first just had a wave of endless weak enemies throughout fights. A cheap way to boost difficulty although they weren't as bad in multiplayer.
There are still a few boss fights that are like 80% mob and 20% boss, but they were clearly intentional design so I think it is not something I would considered a problem.
I'm so glad they never gave up, this is such an unreal game. Seeing their inventory at the end though, it's wild how many secrets they still have left to find -- there is so much equipment tucked away in hidden corners.
I loved Remnant as well and I'm glad to see a fleshed out sequel, but Remnant was anything but hidden, haha. It got edited by Gearbox and sold literally *millions* of copies!
@@arthurjeannin3357 yes, but it remained obscure as well due to its lack of any form of marketing. They stepped up that end with R2 significantly at least. At least, that's what I've seen as not many people spoke about it.
Yo that cube boss looks like a lot of fun. The whole time you are desperately trying to remember where the holes are and ducking for cover in them while desperately avoiding them in a maze.
And it's a nice mixup for when you expect every boss to be a damage tank that you plug away at until the boss health bar reaches zero. In this case, just shoot off all of the crystals and you're done
Honestly it was getting late when I did this boss so that’s probably why I was frustrated but I died A LOT to this boss and it just made me mad. It’s probably more fun in multiplayer because I did it solo. If it was more obvious which direction the cubes were going it would be less irritating imo.
@@Fishy_1998yt When I fought the cubes they all seemed to have a set pattern they moved in so I was able to memorize those and avoid getting hit (after many attempts!)
I have over 200 hours in this game and I'm still loving it. Going through the campaign on Apocalypse is a whole new experience, especially coming off of lower difficulties feeling basically unstoppable.
Wow that last boss is really impressive. Both in its difficulty and in its design. I feel like it's pretty rare that a higher budget game throws something that difficult at their players, and I respect that. The creative design for that boss, and most other bosses I've seen in this video, is really praiseworthy too.
Looks really really good. Boss design this bold, creative and well-executed & polished is something we don't often see!! Art direction and gameplay looks great. Very impressed already by what I'm seeing here. 🤩
Coming back to this video after more than a year to say thank you for showcasing this game! My friends and I had a blast playing through it and put in over 150 hours across the campaign, adventure mode and the DLCs. The replayability they added with different bosses, weapons and archetypes is incredible. We’re now playing through the first game and it’s fun to see how the devs iterated on it for the sequel.
Honestly cant believe i sat and watched this entire video in one sitting. Pineapple, you and your friends made this very easy to watch and enjoy and i also cant believe i never played Remnant. now i gotta give the first one a try and play the second one right after.
Now this is how a sponsored video should be done. Well edited, nice, long look at the game and what to expect. I've been here for an hour and I don't regret it at all. Always worth the weight on your videos.
Dude, I'm so glad you got a Sponsor for this!!!! You're definitely one of the content creators I look up to and love that you're getting these awesome opportunities!
Fortunately, massive improvements in sequels is a trend I see happen a lot in the souls-like genre! Nioh 2 was significantly more fun than the first, remnant 2 seems to have improved, Surge 2 was better than the first in every way and from the gameplay trailers, it looks like the new lords of the fallen has addressed a lot of the issues with the first game.
@@Waltarwhiet Technically, Remnant II is actually the third entry in the series. Chronos was the first game, and it was initially a VR game at first(dunno why the devs thought that was a good idea.)
I’ve seen both of your videos, Remnant from the ashes and Remnant 2, and it just makes me happy to know that anytime you get any sort of javelin or spear like weapon your first instinct is to shoot your friends face with it, like the crossbow on the previous video.
Hilariously, despite choosing to do so out of laziness, killing Faelin instead of Faerin was the "correct" choice because he's the imposter. You can tell because he drops the "Imposter's Heart" but Faerin drops the "Melded Hilt".
I think they are supposed to be one and the same person, but split apart into 2 different aspects of his personality when the Fae world and the one of the Dran merged. Dialogue from them and other npc's seem to hint at that.
@@TheBruceKnie yeah but the one true king is 1. Not entirely dead but more of corpse emperor of mankind situation 2. In the malefic realm where faerin is and where it looks like there was an actual insurrection that happened.
@@ernestrenroelabad5023 I agree on the one true king, but I wasn't referring to him. I meant the situation with Faelin and Faerin and everyone being kind of confused about who is the king now. I guess I was a bit vague with my statement.
I really enjoy how you have made this one, I love how you really show how the game can be played with your friends or just generally. It feels so authentic and you play so organically, a perfect showcase!
Crazy thing about this game is i played through that whole Losomn area and i barely had a single boss or experience you guys did! Thats a really incredible thing that they managed to do
Oh man, this was an unexpected nostalgia trip. My first character in Skyrim all the way back in 2011 was a wood elf named Faelin. Need to give this game a go, that boss is gonna hold a special place in my heart for sure.
That bit with the final boss reminds me of that one boss from The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile that everyone remembers. I'm glad someone saw that and finally said "Yeah, let's make a final boss like that".
Gosh that hour flew by so fast and it was entertaining all the way through. Y'alls dynamic and genuine play time just meshed so well together and I'm sure we'd all love to see more casual gameplay stuff like that if at all possible. Amazing video either way and the game looks astonishing!
The game just oozes creativity, I love the varied boss and enemy design so much. Watching them try and fail to jump into the sewer pipe was hilarious ahaha
I love this, the enemies are all unique, the bosses are very different from each other each boss had a different move set, weakness, gimmick and design once you defeat a boss you get their ability to use yourself you have CHOICES, you get to choose if you want to do what the boss is trying to make you do or you try and kill them and best of all: YOU GET TO SHOOT YOUR FRIENDS!
what i like about remnant is the fact stamina dont get consumed out of battle, what basically keeps a steady pace of your movement until you reach a battle/enemy, so you can pace faster to the next enemys without worrying to have to low stamina on entering a battle.
FINALLY!!! Remnant again! Was kinda sad you didn't acknowledge the alternate kills and rewards the bosses had in the last video, but it was still really fun to watch.
Just discovered this channel, or maybe just paying closer attention, and I have to say, quality content man. I've been a souls fan since long before the genre was defined as "souls-like". And I really enjoy watching your vids in full length. I also solo'd all the games, so seeing you enjoy with friends makes me feel like I missed out on a group with a shared love of this genre.
I just found this channel and i am a fan now 😂. This was a great video you and your buddies had me rolling on the floor laughing while keeping me entertained with the overall gameplay of the game. It was great.
For real, this is the best part. I wasn't going to watch the video until I remembered that. There is a chance to literally not see any of this during my playthrough.
@@zakhelm5279I’m pretty sure IronPineapple misspoke there. I SERIOUSLY doubt they have entirely different bosses throughout the game like a rogue like or some shit. Watching the video I didn’t notice until The Red Prince boss fight when they mentioned his “Empathy” trait. I’m 1000% certain the only thing randomized is those traits below the bosses like “Empathy” and “Thick Skin”, not the bosses themselves. Those traits under the bosses were not there in the final zone, which lines up with what he MEANT to say. Marketing team for the game misinformed him or he misspoke but there is no way in hell this game has any different bosses than what was shown
@@abuck7909i saw ign review saying that it is also different bosses as well as different "buffs" for the boss. not sure how different it can get but atleast people seems to be getting different campaigns unless they play coop together
@@sleepyboy__ probably minibosses only, which aren’t “real” bosses. I don’t know how they could do the same story while changing the main bosses. It’s all a marketing ploy for no real reason. Most people would be perfectly fine with having a well made, streamlined, and scripted experience from a game like this
Yaay! I was so bummed out when I picked the medic cause I was too far into the campaign to start over and I wanted a puppy but I'm super stoked now that I see u get to pick a second class. I'm definitely getting a puppy. I'm glad to see you guys are enjoying the game too. I love it.
Competent gunplay, bullet spongy enemies, over the top boss fights that occasionally one shot you out of nowhere but are somehow still really cool, game is clearly designed around multiplayer... yep, this is a Gearbox game alright! ;P it looks awesome! Will have to consider getting this.
Your video actually convinced me to pick up this game. After 100 hours in the game I came to say this is easily the best souls like I have ever played. They have taken the souls formula and made it their own. And Co-op made this game even more fun.
This looks insanely fun! At first, I thought it reminded me of Returnal x Elden ring, but this is a beast of its own! Now all I need are friends to play with :')
What sold me was your wonderful storytelling... and a total coincidence. These videos are an enjoyable study buddy while hitting the books late at night. Sometimes it's Spotify and others its you--tube; lol. I really started tuning in around the Primogenitor boss fight. Seeing a cowboy battling against Lovecraftian horrors cracked me up. Then when you finished the boss with your buddies I went back my notebook. Unknowingly hitting the un-pause button to some synth-wave music with my non dominant hand. That was when the music dropped a beat right as you left the boss arena. Mistaking the music for the game's triumphant soundtrack tricked me into appreciating a simple moment as a miraculous event. On another note cool video are we gonna get more gameplay?
Remnant 2 is a near masterpiece. I saw that being someone who’s not heavily into the souls like games. In fact I bought the Remnant 1 and just couldn’t get into it. Heard that 2 was much improved and I’ve been playing this game daily ever since. From the level design, the depth, the fact that you can replay this game countless all times makes it truly unique. Hopefully they’ll make a 3 and go much bigger with it.
@@douglasdiggins8296 Except the game is completely soloable? Also who cares if a game is all gameplay (assuming that's what you meanw hen you say 'coop'), elden ring is all gameplay and that won GOTY??? There are hundreds of fantastic games that aren't narrative driven, you sound like such a clown right now.
@@douglasdiggins8296 sounds like the both of you just haven't bothered with the story or skipped everything. There's so much lore and story and there's always things to find. Regardless, its a roguelike and everything is better with friends so i get your point but if you find it boring while solo then maybe you shouldn't play a game that is mainly solo.
I am being nitpicky, but i cant call it a souls-like. It is "kinda but not really" ( just like Chronos before the Ashes , now that i think about it) and i am actually fine with it!
Idk I think it’s more of a hyrbid game rather than a souls like. There’s some diablo elements in there, souls like elements, elements from their own games, it’s a mesh of stuff that creates an original experience.
How is this game not getting the same fame and celebration as Elden Ring?....It's honestly incredible....I mean yeah it got great reviews and all, but I didn't think it would be this creative and insane
AGH, I can't watch all of this video until I've played through the game myself, I don't wanna spoil myself. But I will absolutely bookmark this and come back when I have!
I had the first Remnant and was a little disappointed at its graphics and style, but this looks incredible. If I can get a squad together, I'm definitely giving this a few playthroughs.
This is so fantastic, I didn't see your video on Remnant 1 until after this sequel had been announced and I am so excited to be able to play this game when it releases in a couple days. I'm legitimately stoked!
So far this is hands down the most compelling video I've seen so far to get the game. Other review videos only show the starting stuff and was putting me to sleep, this has some actually intresting gameplay
So Happy that they decided to sponsorise u for this realease u deserve it !!!! (and everyone know it's a banger of its genre and a great souls who need a review :p )
Glad to see the studio stuck with their vision and improved on it
You could say... they stuck to their gu

@@Waltarwhiet Technically, Remnant II is actually the third entry in the series. Chronos was the first game, and it was initially a VR game at first(dunno why the devs thought that was a good idea.)
@@the_furry_inside_your_walls639 uh, presumably because Facebook helped fund it?
I’ve seen both of your videos, Remnant from the ashes and Remnant 2, and it just makes me happy to know that anytime you get any sort of javelin or spear like weapon your first instinct is to shoot your friends face with it, like the crossbow on the previous video.
Hilariously, despite choosing to do so out of laziness, killing Faelin instead of Faerin was the "correct" choice because he's the imposter. You can tell because he drops the "Imposter's Heart" but Faerin drops the "Melded Hilt".
Now I feel bad
I think they are supposed to be one and the same person, but split apart into 2 different aspects of his personality when the Fae world and the one of the Dran merged. Dialogue from them and other npc's seem to hint at that.
@@TheBruceKnie yeah but the one true king is
1. Not entirely dead but more of corpse emperor of mankind situation
2. In the malefic realm where faerin is and where it looks like there was an actual insurrection that happened.
@@ernestrenroelabad5023 I agree on the one true king, but I wasn't referring to him. I meant the situation with Faelin and Faerin and everyone being kind of confused about who is the king now. I guess I was a bit vague with my statement.
Faelin and Faerin are the same person
Remnant 1 was awesome, and this one looks flat-out incredible!
If only I had friends to play with, eh? 😬
Trust me you will find some fast and play for hours.
Yeah, it sucks being so aspirated and separated from one another in our toxic society.
If you have a ps5 you may add me :D
I'm vita ps 4,5 player also
@@bobmcbob4399 Fr Fr I know the old chat lobbies were toxic back in the Cod4 days but I meet so many people and made so many friends I miss those days
The synchronised “YESS!” at 56:25
I felt that in my soul😭😂
Such a good moment
“This town isn’t big enough for the… one, two, three of us” that’s what got me 😂 the pause and count
And he miscounted too he forgot himself
i lost it when he threw the spear in the back of dudes head and the convo went "so.. do you want this back?" Pine: "nah, i got another one"
@@jameskazd9951 "the dudes" come on man have some respect for Razbuten
@@shalvei_ imma be honest, idk any of these people and the only reason i know the name of who threw the spear is because i'm on their channel
@@ojama1987 just like Ratman by Leo Ortolani when he made the FF parody...
I really enjoy how you have made this one, I love how you really show how the game can be played with your friends or just generally. It feels so authentic and you play so organically, a perfect showcase!
Crazy thing about this game is i played through that whole Losomn area and i barely had a single boss or experience you guys did! Thats a really incredible thing that they managed to do
An hour long Iron Pineapple video showing off Remnant 2.... This is truly Christmas in July 😊❤
Oh man, this was an unexpected nostalgia trip. My first character in Skyrim all the way back in 2011 was a wood elf named Faelin. Need to give this game a go, that boss is gonna hold a special place in my heart for sure.
That bit with the final boss reminds me of that one boss from The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile that everyone remembers. I'm glad someone saw that and finally said "Yeah, let's make a final boss like that".
Gosh that hour flew by so fast and it was entertaining all the way through. Y'alls dynamic and genuine play time just meshed so well together and I'm sure we'd all love to see more casual gameplay stuff like that if at all possible. Amazing video either way and the game looks astonishing!
Bro, that E3 gameplay section made my insides curle up, good job x)
The game just oozes creativity, I love the varied boss and enemy design so much. Watching them try and fail to jump into the sewer pipe was hilarious ahaha
this honestly looks better than any other game ive seen in years.
This looks like a mix between Dark Souls and Destiny. I love it!
I love this, the enemies are all unique, the bosses are very different from each other
each boss had a different move set, weakness, gimmick and design
once you defeat a boss you get their ability to use yourself
you have CHOICES, you get to choose if you want to do what the boss is trying to make you do or you try and kill them
and best of all: YOU GET TO SHOOT YOUR FRIENDS!
😊
I can't remember the last time I enjoyed every minute of an hour long video. What a group dynamic, what a game!
The banter between you guys was so good man. Would love to see more coop with friends content
The effects on the attacks/particles are awesome, I love the beam at 32:40
Do you know if the particles are PhysX particles or does this also look just as awesome on AMD graphics/Intel as well?
That's such a dense collection of really cool mechanics, and I like the style.
what i like about remnant is the fact stamina dont get consumed out of battle, what basically keeps a steady pace of your movement until you reach a battle/enemy, so you can pace faster to the next enemys without worrying to have to low stamina on entering a battle.
47:36 This whole bit killed me. Raz nails that obnoxious scripted enthusiasm perfectly. RIP E3.
Wow the boss fights are amazing. Not just the boss designs but the entire boss arena as well.
FINALLY!!! Remnant again! Was kinda sad you didn't acknowledge the alternate kills and rewards the bosses had in the last video, but it was still really fun to watch.
"Make sure you play through the game in co-op" haha if some of us had friends to play games with.
randos work too. some are decent.
Just discovered this channel, or maybe just paying closer attention, and I have to say, quality content man. I've been a souls fan since long before the genre was defined as "souls-like". And I really enjoy watching your vids in full length. I also solo'd all the games, so seeing you enjoy with friends makes me feel like I missed out on a group with a shared love of this genre.
I just found this channel and i am a fan now 😂. This was a great video you and your buddies had me rolling on the floor laughing while keeping me entertained with the overall gameplay of the game. It was great.
The fact that I can watch this whole video then play it myself and have a completely different experience is snazingly cool.
For real, this is the best part. I wasn't going to watch the video until I remembered that. There is a chance to literally not see any of this during my playthrough.
@@zakhelm5279I’m pretty sure IronPineapple misspoke there. I SERIOUSLY doubt they have entirely different bosses throughout the game like a rogue like or some shit.
Watching the video I didn’t notice until The Red Prince boss fight when they mentioned his “Empathy” trait. I’m 1000% certain the only thing randomized is those traits below the bosses like “Empathy” and “Thick Skin”, not the bosses themselves. Those traits under the bosses were not there in the final zone, which lines up with what he MEANT to say.
Marketing team for the game misinformed him or he misspoke but there is no way in hell this game has any different bosses than what was shown
@@abuck7909i saw ign review saying that it is also different bosses as well as different "buffs" for the boss. not sure how different it can get but atleast people seems to be getting different campaigns unless they play coop together
@@sleepyboy__ probably minibosses only, which aren’t “real” bosses. I don’t know how they could do the same story while changing the main bosses. It’s all a marketing ploy for no real reason. Most people would be perfectly fine with having a well made, streamlined, and scripted experience from a game like this
@@abuck7909 in the first game I had completely different area bosses on my second playthrough
such a fun video, it's a joy seeing you play with friends you should do more of this stuff!
Yaay! I was so bummed out when I picked the medic cause I was too far into the campaign to start over and I wanted a puppy but I'm super stoked now that I see u get to pick a second class. I'm definitely getting a puppy. I'm glad to see you guys are enjoying the game too. I love it.
Obviously I'm late but you can even switch out your main class
Competent gunplay, bullet spongy enemies, over the top boss fights that occasionally one shot you out of nowhere but are somehow still really cool, game is clearly designed around multiplayer... yep, this is a Gearbox game alright! ;P it looks awesome! Will have to consider getting this.
Your video actually convinced me to pick up this game. After 100 hours in the game I came to say this is easily the best souls like I have ever played. They have taken the souls formula and made it their own. And Co-op made this game even more fun.
When the world didnt expect Pineapple to return, he blessed us after 3 weeks with 1 hour video
my dad and me were going to play this and still are but thanks for the amazing content while we wait the last 4 days
If you get the Ultimate Edition you can play Tomorrow.
@@Nimoot don’t have the money for that sadly
@@Nimootnot worth it for the extra cost just to play 3 days early.
@@GameTimeWhy you get the dlc with it
Really proud of this studio!! So great when an underdog company come out and within a few games seem to have done well for themselves 😊
I don't think this will be the last we will see Gunfire Games producing a quality, fun game
Rolled solo my first playthrough, and had the most fun playing a video game in years.
Him: hmmm this bombfire reminds of some other game, but I just can’t put my finger on it.
His friend: oh, Zelda
This looks insanely fun!
At first, I thought it reminded me of Returnal x Elden ring, but this is a beast of its own! Now all I need are friends to play with :')
What sold me was your wonderful storytelling... and a total coincidence. These videos are an enjoyable study buddy while hitting the books late at night. Sometimes it's Spotify and others its you--tube; lol. I really started tuning in around the Primogenitor boss fight. Seeing a cowboy battling against Lovecraftian horrors cracked me up. Then when you finished the boss with your buddies I went back my notebook. Unknowingly hitting the un-pause button to some synth-wave music with my non dominant hand. That was when the music dropped a beat right as you left the boss arena. Mistaking the music for the game's triumphant soundtrack tricked me into appreciating a simple moment as a miraculous event.
On another note cool video are we gonna get more gameplay?
You are literally the best Creator ever I appreciate everything you do thank you😊😊
Remnant 2 is a near masterpiece. I saw that being someone who’s not heavily into the souls like games. In fact I bought the Remnant 1 and just couldn’t get into it. Heard that 2 was much improved and I’ve been playing this game daily ever since. From the level design, the depth, the fact that you can replay this game countless all times makes it truly unique. Hopefully they’ll make a 3 and go much bigger with it.
honestly, final boss fight of this game might just be my favorite souls-like boss ever, including the soulsborne trilogy itself
This is one of those games that I really want to play, but I have no friends. You made it look so damn fun with your crew.
You can join into quick matches with random people if you really wanna co-op
@@douglasdiggins8296 You've clearly not played the game if you think solo is stale
@@douglasdiggins8296 who cares about story and characters when it has some of the best gameplay in video games? It's not a narrative driven game
@@douglasdiggins8296 Except the game is completely soloable? Also who cares if a game is all gameplay (assuming that's what you meanw hen you say 'coop'), elden ring is all gameplay and that won GOTY??? There are hundreds of fantastic games that aren't narrative driven, you sound like such a clown right now.
@@douglasdiggins8296 sounds like the both of you just haven't bothered with the story or skipped everything. There's so much lore and story and there's always things to find. Regardless, its a roguelike and everything is better with friends so i get your point but if you find it boring while solo then maybe you shouldn't play a game that is mainly solo.
Finally, a souls like game worthy of being called a souls-like and an upgrade from the first.
Procedural level generation is the exact opposite of From's skillfully and incredibly carefully crafted level design.
@@TheCrewExpendable its not quite procedural. its still handcrafted levels, just slightly random which ones you get.
I am being nitpicky, but i cant call it a souls-like. It is "kinda but not really" ( just like Chronos before the Ashes , now that i think about it) and i am actually fine with it!
From a AA studio! I really hope they keep it up seems like they have a talented team with a vision.
Idk I think it’s more of a hyrbid game rather than a souls like. There’s some diablo elements in there, souls like elements, elements from their own games, it’s a mesh of stuff that creates an original experience.
47:37 I think this part was my fav. it soo funny🤣
Cube might be my favorite gimmick boss in a souls-like, actually fun gimmick, and very evocative of old platformer nostalgia.
It's definitely my favorite boss in the game, maybe any game. It was just so much trial and erroring it with my friend.
How is this game not getting the same fame and celebration as Elden Ring?....It's honestly incredible....I mean yeah it got great reviews and all, but I didn't think it would be this creative and insane
AGH, I can't watch all of this video until I've played through the game myself, I don't wanna spoil myself.
But I will absolutely bookmark this and come back when I have!
Update: I have now played the game. I fuckin' love it.
Videos like this make me wish i had friends to play games with...
More like this so i can live vicariously through you, please?
You on Xbox?
Im with ya mate.
Get a lil more confidence and invite people to play with. You'd be surprised how easily you can become friends with other players.😊
What do u play sir
I'm finally getting my PS5 this Friday as I can't afford a PC that I'd be happy to play on.
I had the first Remnant and was a little disappointed at its graphics and style, but this looks incredible. If I can get a squad together, I'm definitely giving this a few playthroughs.
This is so fantastic, I didn't see your video on Remnant 1 until after this sequel had been announced and I am so excited to be able to play this game when it releases in a couple days. I'm legitimately stoked!
That cube boss is so cool!
Definitely picking this up, thanks for showcasing it!
I love the first game. Can’t wait to play this one
i loved the first game soooo much and i am so existed for this!
Did you manifest to play this?!
@@tylerbenjamin3842 hahaha well i misspelled obviously, but this kinda makes sense too!
I liked the first one. It wasn't amazing to play solo, but fun enough for a while.
Ive barely played the game so far and I already cant wait for Remnant 3. Possibly one of the best co op games ive ever played.
So far this is hands down the most compelling video I've seen so far to get the game. Other review videos only show the starting stuff and was putting me to sleep, this has some actually intresting gameplay
me and my friend beat the final boss on apocalypse difficulty and let me tell you it was pain.
I love to see you don’t feel pressured to do just steam dumpster dives. I love your content man!
"Oh this is Yharnum"
Immediately dies to the Huntress
They knew what they were doing
So Happy that they decided to sponsorise u for this realease u deserve it !!!! (and everyone know it's a banger of its genre and a great souls who need a review :p )
This was a very enjoyable video, and the game looks sick ! That one-hour playthrough flew by, watching you play with your buddies was ver fun.
