With good gunplay, interesting archetypes, and amazing visual style, Remnant 2 does best what Remnant did best and does so with a plethora of new added features and fun stuff. The basics are still there. Randomly generated "worlds", souls lite like mechanics, choices matter greatly for both story and for rewards, and a lot of things are as always obscure, which can be good depending on what you'd like from a game.
The less you know about the game when you play it, usually the better your experience is going to be, as the game is heavily dependent on generating maps that may or mayhaps not contain that one weapon, that one mod, that one skill, that you'd like.
Knowing more about what weapons and such there are, the worse it's going to feel when you didn't roll a world where you could get said weapon. So it's best to play through the game (best done together with friends) once fully before looking anything up.
It's a good game, but not for everyone. Recommend this to any who are on the edge of getting it.

While different from the other Monster Hunter games, this title still upholds to the old formula of gather, hunt, craft, where the grind eventually results in a sense of accomplishment. The gathering has been streamlined, going from slow inventory hogging gathering to a effective and easy gathering system. The hunting has been made easier to grind through with the addition of investigations and the ever so helpful scoutflies. Crafting is easy to follow and even has a wishlist to help you know when you can craft the weapon you want.
All in all, it's Monster Hunter, but made more available to newcomers and acts as a great gateway for people who wants to try out the series.

Being a game with such a following, there isn't much that hasn't been said about this game. It's fun, charming, lovable, and down right good.

One thing can be said to those few that haven't played this game either due to lack of intrerest or due to the somewhat cancerous nature of certain fans; this is worth your every penny and every second spent. You don't have to force yourself to like this, especially since there are many wrongs with this game, but giving this a shot can take you on a journey that many other games lack.

Undertale became loved for a reason. If you have nothing else to play, then try it and maybe you'll have a reason to love it as well.

I'll be as objective as I can with this.
Probably the best soundtrack I ever heard from an indie game, together with the most expressive settings from a 2D title of this genre and a story that's so beautiful that I actually cried during the time I played it. Highly recomended for anyone that wants to feel a great story, instead of just looking at one.

If you're tired of running around doing tiresome duties that keeps you from actually enjoying your game or just want to have something more fun to play with your friends, this is the game.

Having top-down view and the ability to run around with three other players mixed with hillious jokes, powerful and creative spells, and the constant threat that one of your "friends" might kill you just for fun, gives this game a better co-op gameplay value than almost any other multiplayer game out there.

Buy the game, and laugh and yell at your fellow friends as they kill eachother.

Be-a-utiful game right here.

The music's lovely, the artwork is nothing short of brilliant and the story's a masterpeice. And of course as you would want in any game, the gameplay is just marvelous with many ways to change the diffuculty to your liking.

This game can be challenging for those who wish, or be a more casual experience if you're looking for a great tale. You also have a numerous ways to fight your enemies from going into close combat to having a more strategic aproach.

Buy this if you can. It's worth your money and your time.
