First I want to note I didn't want to write this review till I beat the game.

There are several questions I will answer in this review according to my opinion of the game.
Is it worth full price?
Can you play with friends?
Is the story good?
What's the gameplay like?

Now to answer these questions.

Is this game worth full price?
Yes and No.
If you played the first one and the dlc for it. If you enjoyed the story for it and want to come back to the world of remnant then yes. If this is your first remnant game, then wait for a sale unless you're going to play it with friends.

Can you play with friends?
Yes, but....
Yes, you can play with friends the game actually encourages it. I haven't tested to see if there is crossplay so I can't say anything on that.

Is the story good?
It's decent, but some of it relies on having played the first one. It's very straight forward, but there are lore bits littered around in the form of books, tablets, and NPCs. One of Yaesha's NPCs in one of the dungeons gives a really big lore drop.

What's the gameplay like?
Well....it's practically the same as the first one. This one more heavily relies on builds and your class skills and mods. Essentially Souls-like with guns but more of a third person shooter. I enjoy it, but man dodging can be hard cause a lot of enemies/bosses have delayed attacks. i.e. you see the enemy wind up so you dodge but it delays the attack by like half a second to a second so when you've gone through your I frames you get hit. It can take a little bit to get used to but it's easy peesy lemon squeezy. The game does want you to roll through adventure so you can farm, or experiences areas you didn't when you ran story. Once you finish the story you can reroll your campaign again on a harder difficulty if you want to.

This game has countless secrets and a lot of things to find. If you like shooting, melee, puzzles. semi difficult boss fights, decent story, and a game to play with your friends. This is it.

P.S. There are a lot of guides for people who get lost. Also I'm running the game on a 1080 TI.

P.S.S. You can pet the dog.
