Remnant: From the Ashes

Le meilleur et le plus original des souls like pour moi ! Perso, il mériterait plutôt 8/10 mais dans ce site, il y'a trop de rageux qui mettent des 0/10 pensant noter un AAA quand il joue à des AA. Le jeu n'a pas une histoire et un lore de dingue tout comme ses cinématiques et sa synchro labiale ne sont pas top et la vrai fin est en DLC. Cependant, il a le mérite de proposer un jeu fun et original (mélange de souls like et de shoot and loot avec du procédurale en bonus). Le tout avec un très bon game design, un très bon gameplay, une bonne interface utilisateur, du contenue à foison et un suivi exemplaire pour un prix fixe. L'édition complète à bas prix et sans microtransactions ! Franchement, qu'est ce qu'il vous faut de plus ?

The basic concept of a shooter with soulslike dodging is a fantastic concept that, if it had been executed on better, could easily have made it my favorite game of all time. The execution, however, was fairly bad. The two big issues are the bad controls and bad boss design. The controls are bad because you regularly can't shoot. You can only shoot while "aiming" because the default controls have the button for melee attacks and the button for shooting as the same button, so it's meant to be attacking while "aiming" shoots and attacking while not "aiming" melee's. The problem is that hitting the "aim" button only causes you to "aim" maybe 50% of the time, so you have to repeatedly click it in order to get your character to "aim" so that you can shoot. Given how short your windows of opportunity to shoot are you can expect to spend 10%-50% of your attack window repeatedly pressing the "aim" button to get the controls to finally work, which is very frustrating, and setting melee to a different button than shoot does not help, since the "aim" mechanic still applies regardless. Having control over your character is a basic necessity in a video game. The boss design is bad because every boss spawns adds, which means that you're constantly getting attacked from behind. Soulslike games are supposed to be about skillfully dodging/blocking/parrying attacks, and your success is supposed to be determined by your ability to do that, but when every boss is repeatedly spawning waves of adds you're instead constantly getting attacked from behind, and as such are not able to dodge those attacks regardless of skill, making skill less of a factor and making the game feel much less like a soulslike and much less skill-oriented and more about just raw stats.

Gameplay: (Great) ---- Graphics: (Great) --- Story: (Mediocre) --- Score: (Good)

Dark souls with guns except the game is more about drowning you with swarms and minibosses instead of testing your actual skill

Game doesn't look balanced or interesting when playing solo. Weak story on one hand. Simple and boring monsters between hard-to-beat, but still boring bosses on another. Uncomfortable and laggy controls on PC which is typical for many games, ported from consoles. Game itself is also somewhat slow to respond (hardware is a top notch). But I have a few good words also: got the game for free, so no hard feelings :)
