Even when the game isn't actively shooting itself in the foot, it never entirely succeeds.

From the Ashes is a brilliant game that takes what is good about Soulsborne and combines it with a satisfying co-op shooter.

Remnant: From the Ashes is a surprisingly good combination of Gears of War-like third-person shooting with Souls-like difficulty.

All in all, Remnant is an excellent game and definitely hits on both of our "MUST BUY" lists. Other than a bit of input lag on commands there really isn't anything we can complain about, which is pretty damned rare for the both of us, since the years have made us both bitter and picky when it comes to games. If you have the money, and you have access to a platform that will support it, you should be playing it. NOW.

My time with Remnant was a total roller-coaster. There were moments of pure, unfiltered rage, peaks of elation, ah-ha moments, and quiet zen grinds. For the most part though, it’s just a steady climb.

Remnant is overall a fantastic action RPG and great souls-like sibling. The enemy variety, stellar combat, and procedural aspect skyrocket its replay value and the meaningful loot is exciting in this gaming climate. It's challenging even on normal, but far less brutal than Dark Souls, but you can kick up the heat on a harder setting. If you enjoy games like Dark Souls or action RPGs this is an instant buy, especially if you have friends to play with.

Remnant: From the Ashes is on the verge of what could be a great game. The gameplay has a very good foundation but the repetition of scenarios and lack of rewards will quickly alienate the player. It lacks a lot of content in the form of enemies, scenarios, maps and rewards. Hopefully they will add to them little by little. But it's fun, and that's what really counts.

While certainly playable as a solo experience, Remnant: From the Ashes truly shines as a cooperative multiplayer experience! Fans of Left 4 Dead, Monster Hunter, Destiny, and other cooperative driven games should definitely pick this up!

A few absurd difficulty spikes, repetitive boss encounters, bonkers match-up placement, and the absence of in-game communication do hinder the experience, but not so much as to write off the game entirely.

Although it is clearly inspired by the work of FromSoftware, the game has managed to go beyond giving its own imprint, providing the closest experience to Dark Souls with firearms that one could wish for.

In one sense, Gunfire Games have seemingly achieved the impossible in providing us with a shooter-focused RPG whose gameplay loop is validated by its plentiful, challenging encounters.
