I never buy video games on day 1, but I made an exception for Remnant 2
... and holy hell is it so much fun. I sat down and played it with my bf for 4 hours last night and it felt like no time went by at all.
I've never been so engrossed in a game like this so quickly. I'm normally terrible with souls-like games (Dark Souls, Elden Ring, etc) and quickly rage quit. But this game is different somehow?
It runs like crap though which is probably not unusual in games released recently... not a fan of that personally.
Has anyone else here played it? If so, what did you think?
I normally buy them on release day if it looks like a game i want to play. The bugs don't seem to bother me that much and I dont come across as many spoilers that way.
I'm a programmer myself, and it's interesting for me to think about some bugs. Maybe that's part of the reason why I don't understand all of the hate.
I usually wait for first sale haha. Did that with cyberpunk 2077 and with Elden ring. I was in no rush to start since I was churning through my other library of games I snatched on sale...
hello fellow patient gamer 🫡
Oh for sure! I absolutely adore smaller bugs!
An example in Remnant 2 I can think of off the top of my head is that when you go to revive a teammate, both yourself and the teammate say "Thank you" which has led to some hilarious moments. I also enjoy trying to think up reasons why the bugs might happen (reviving a player puts the downed player into a "reviving" state, maybe it accidentally puts BOTH players into the "reviving" state?).
My main issues with it are the performance issues. Even extremely beefy computers seem to require DLSS enabled in performance mode. I like my bugs to be at a smooth framerate, damn it! 😆
Apologies if this doesn't fit here, I'm just obsessed with it at the moment and have no one else (except bf) to talk about it with lol
