Only a few places had frame drops and when we reported them (we reported every single bug, performance drop, etc along the way) they were already on a list and being worked through.

    What I love about Remnant is how rewarding each Boss is. The weapon mod system is something I think other games should take inspiration from. Big triumphs over difficult bosses should give you unique rewards that actually enhance your gameplay, not just XP, progression, and basic loot. It makes you feel like every battle you’ve won has helped you get to where you are. *chef’s kiss*

    I saw 4 or 5 reviews of this game, and at the end, except for IGN it felt like they were more preoccupied with giving it a score than evaluating how much fun the game is in all its components, gameplay, world design, exploration, gear, team play, mob and bosses variety, and so on, it felt like they did not understand the game. Coming from someone who played the first title scared because I do not like Souls games I ended up playing the game for several hours and all its DLCs. That year remnant 1 was the hidden gem that almost no one played sadly. I honestly think Legacy Gaming review was spot on, and the best part they did not show spoilers as the others did. Thank you for your brutally honest review @LegacyGamingUS, I can't wait to start playing R2.

    I appreciate the comments about the story. You know a lot of reviewers have been knocking the story, and while I would 100% agree that it's delivery is less than optimal, I think it's caused several people to overlook just how compelling the overarching plot really is. It reminds me of the Dark Tower, and I wouldn't be surprised if the writers revealed it to be one of their inspirations. For those interested, check out videos that summarize the lore of Chronos Before the Ashes and Remnant 1. Chronos was a barely passable souls like/Zelda action adventure, but I appreciate the hell out of it for how it expanded on the world building.
    Can't wait to dive into this tonight!

    Remnant from the Ashes was one of my FAVORITE games back in 2019 and was for a while. Lots of games since then were a lil... lacking. I guess. When you cover world design in this game it reminds me of how GOOD it felt to accomplish secrets back in Remnant 1. Take the Ravager fight for example (The big ol wolf in Yaesha) yes you could just fight it like any normal boss OR if you looked around you could find a lullaby and play a song on the bells around the arena to calm him. Thus skipping the fight and actually talking to the wonderful creature! I'm so excited for this game!!!

    For me this is the perfect blend between borderlands 2 and destiny mash, i know these one is not a looter shooter. But very rarely we see a shooter game with "out of the box" ideas for guns. And for some reason i just love when a shooter game gives me the feeling of a legendary unique item that RPGs are known for

    I'd really recommend trying to start on Nightmare if you like souls-like games. Its brutal, probably harder then any FromSoft game, but it's so rewarding.
    I even had to re-roll my campaign on the 1st planet because I couldn't get past the 1st progression boss, (regenerating vicious abomination) but then slowly getting pieces of a build together and overcoming challenges is the best gaming experience I've had this year by far.

    I loved the original Remnant, aside from one thing - the maze like levels with staircases layered upon rooms upon corridors upon more staircases, often I'd think I was progressing through a level only to end up back at the start! If this is improved with a better map it's a must buy for me.

    so glad remnant 2 is getting so much attention from reviewers the original was amazing had a few flaws but overall was better than most triple A releases that year, but was barely talked about being a new IP with little to no advertising i probably ran through the story 5 separate times for difficulty reasons and getting loot from bosses since in the first game there were 2 separate world bosses but only 1 can appear and each one had the default loot and secret loot by usually breaking off a piece of its body then some of the worlds had secret areas with events that could also get you another new weapon like the Chicago typewriter was only available at the dock helping out the 2 sisters making sure both survived.

    I’ve got a small question. So I know reallocating your trait points requires resources to do so.
    Each archetype has an attached trait that ranks up with the archetype, and once fully unlocked it can be used with any archetype, but requires investing trait points.
    What happens if you’ve invested points in one of these traits, but you then decide to switch back to the associated archetype?
    Since you get that trait fully ranked without investment are those invested points refunded for use elsewhere for free?

    Loved the review minus one thing. You said "It's not a looter shooter", but then went on to talk about the shooting, and the looting....It's very much a looter shooter in nearly every way in my eyes. Some may disagree, but to me a looter shooter is a game where you have rng based drops (not all drops mind you), and the primary gameplay is shooting, usually in first or third person. I guess you could argue this game has viable melee builds, but if I had to guess, there's far more options for guns, making it close to 80%+ of the build options.
    Anyway, agree to disagree. I will say though, the guy who reviewed this has a GREAT voice for reviews. This was a television quality review. It reminded of something I'd see on G4 TV back in the early 2000s. I obviously subscribed, great stuff.

It feels great, the combat is fun, I'm very early into it, but it's got that Blizzard-style robustness to how it controls and feels, which can make for a timeless game (until the sequel). Kinda like Elden Ring is just so damned playable....this feels like that...but with guns, and unreal engine 5!

    My copy arrived Friday, so two days late. But it downloaded onto my PS5 pretty quickly. I have played the first years ago when it originally came out after its release. Though it did take me a good while of running around the Phantom and Hatchery areas trying to get my bearings again. Haven't played today but will give it a good session Sunday and Monday now I have completed Diablo 4 and not rushing season 1. Firs thing I noticed were how incredibly the graphics and scenery (especially the city in the beginning) were when I started playing. Just the fine details in general, the narrative and story telling and just the overall characters interactions and the game so far in my short lived time on it have been great. I play a lot of games and grab at least 2-3 a month so more often than not I find myself playing 5 at a time online or solo and I love it, always got something to play when I fancy a change. Being someone who suffers severe mental health (OCD, Tourette's) and has periods of struggle video gaming throughout my life has been a blessing and my therapy.

    This has officially taken my favorite list and shoved them all down. Hands down, not even a contest the best video game I've ever played. I hope the GOW devs see this game and take notes because if the next GOW series is able to pull off a game with similar story changes along the way where everyone has a bit of a different unique story and playthrough and they can have a similar level set up where everyone has unique parts to their game others may not have it would make the next GOW games have so much more replayability and the GOW community would flip their wigs.. i really want to see a GOW game series that takes place in Egypt but that takes different turns based on what level you roll or what choices you make along the way... Man that would be just as addictive as this game is. I really hope the people working on GOW see this game and decide to do very similar things in their next games that take place in anew mythology which looks like it's going to be the Egyptian mythology which would work so well along side level design and story changes for each player depending on how they play, where/when they go somewhere or if they miss something altogether. 😮

  • @MattHew-rq8zw
    @MattHew-rq8zw ปีที่แล้ว

    In the old game, I had 20 in every single possible skill I could've aquire... We're talking over 1100 points put in. To be brief on the matter, this means that if our alocated 80 points or 80 skills... is what we can spend into out of all that there is (seeing that there's lots of options!), then each has to really push the standards as to how much it might effect gameplay, based on either effectiveness overall... how they work or rather, due to them being so few we can put into... then gear and the orbs for re-alocating has to account for it (aside from our own playstyles and more helping out making the difference). I'm looking forward to this, and I'll be giving it my fair share of hours to dig my teeth into. Remnant 2 seems promising, and just like the 1st game... I hope that 800-900 hours won't be enough to sate me here.

    • @LegacyGamingUS
      @LegacyGamingUS  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      We'll put it this way. Each trait here goes to level 10, not 20. Each trait has also been doubled, sometimes tripled in effectiveness. Between your two free archetype traits and the 85 you get to spend, that equates to roughly 210-220 points of value when compared to R1 (Maybe even a bit more.) The 400+ points worth of damage traits have been removed and migrated to jewelry and archetype passives, also with increased potency. Hopefully that paints a better picture in your mind of their rework.

    I normally play the healer in mmos but find the healing weapon mod can more than do the job if your fundamentals are solid.
    I didn’t think much of the trait system till I found one that siphons damage dealt.
    I had no real expectations going into this game but the end experience may rival Elden Ring, even if I don’t think it will quite win out on that.

  • @tyratyra5549
    @tyratyra5549 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    One thing I need to ask about though, do the bosses actually FEEL like bosses? The bosses in From the Ashes weren't anything special because 90% of the time, you have to clear out the ads before doing a little damage to the boss, only for it to play all out again 15 seconds later. You'd be hard pressed to find a boss that doesn't have extra enemies to fight. Bosses are supposed to be a spectacle. Not just difficult, but also engaging. Something to get the blood pumping. In FtA, I didn't feel any of that because I'm not fighting the BOSS. I'm fighting little dudes. There's a reason games like Elden Ring are so popular. Does anyone walk into Godfrey's arena and go "man, I sure wish I had a bunch of other dudes to fight"? NO. That's because Godfrey is a friggin' Chad and we want to fight him man-to-man. If Remnant is going to repeat that, I'm going to be incredibly disappointed.

    I was incredibly disappointed with the hub in Remnant 2 - a big and ugly slum filled with boring NPCs. The world feels empty and dull, the enemies look very similar to each other, the UI is ugly, the scrap system sucks, trait points feel REALLY unrewarding (wow, you gain a trait point but it increases your HP by 5! Wow, how interesting!). Played for about five hours with two friends and we all uninstalled it. Your video is good, I'm just sharing my opinion on the game.

    I know you can't do story spoilers, but the little bit I've seen here and on other channels makes me think that this is set before the first game. Founder Ford is there and the way the main crystal is revealed is very different from the first game.
