In fact, I've barely even been competent at them. The person handling my demo at Summer Game Fest even pointed at the healing item on the screen saying "this will work like the Estus flask", but you can feel it too in the checkpoints dotted around that act like bonfires, and the reliance on rolling your way out of combat to avoid some brutally difficult fights.īut I have a pre-existing problem: I have never been good at the Soulslike genre. Remnant 2 wears its inspirations proudly, and the most obvious to the game's structure is FromSoftware's Souls series. Remnant 2 wears its inspirations proudly, and the most obvious nod is towards FromSoftware's Souls series Perhaps it goes without saying, but I made the right choice. While the other characters consisted of snipers and close-combat specialists, there was something alluring about fighting through an army of monsters while man's best friend helped me out with a couple of well-timed assists.
Hearing that one of the four archetypes has a pet dog who will fight enemies and draw aggro for you, I had a bit of a decision to make. There are several different characters on offer at the start of my Remnant 2 preview.
It could be that developer Gunfire Games gives you a dog. It could be the slightly sluggish movement that means you can't reposition yourself at a moment's notice, forcing you to think several steps ahead even as combat gets faster and more brutal. There's something about the chaos that's oddly compelling from the moment you start playing. Third-person blaster Remnant 2 very rarely gives you a second to catch your breath, throwing enemies at you from all directions and daring you to survive.
