Remnant: From the Ashes

the soulslike tag worries me, is this hard?

It's super super hard, don't make the mistake I did in picking a high difficulty setting at the beginning of the game, because they don't let you change it later. We ended up bailing dozens of hours in for this reason. Kinda soured me on the whole experience.

How flawed of a gem can you be?

A flawed gem for sure, but I'm loving it. I feel like I'm playing Demon's Souls knowing that it will eventually lead to Elden Ring. Can't wait for Remnant 2.

Also adding on how fun this is despite being flawed. I played public games and generally had way more fun with co-op teammates since I genuinely don't think I could beat some of these ridiculous mob-heavy bosses solo. Also as cool as the procedurally generated levels are, I found it just made them feel very copy-pasted and a bit bland to explore after a while. But the gunplay and overall gameplay loop are damn solid and I feel like Remnant 2 could really improve on what this game did well

Been having a lot of fun on this playing with two other friends

How is this a 2.9 average? That's insane to me
