Probably the hardest I've ever been smacked around in a Fromsoft game to be completely honest.

The new weapons (and types) introduced are a breath of fresh air for the game for both PvP and PvE, the only thing I feel that needs addressed aside from the performance issues*, is some of the bosses rushing you the millisecond you walk through the fogwall. Frankly the first few times it happened was pretty damn funny in my opinion. Here's hoping they patch out the performance problems people are having, some worse than others.

*The worst performance issues I've had were some cases of the game freezing up for about a second or so, but its been so infrequent that it hasn't really hindered my gameplay besides being annoying. (RTX 3060 and Ryzen 9 5900X with the game on an SSD)

Valve you need to do something, the bots and cheats are so out of hand and you're just letting the game fester and wither away while your player base is dwindling and BEGGING for you to not let this game die. The amount of game developers that would kill to have this much love and support for a game from their community is astronomical and you're just letting them rot and watch something they love be tarnished.

This game has went from a daily must play to "man, remember when this game was enjoyable to play? I miss those days."

Early Access Review
Echoes update is the best state this game has been in period.

This game is no longer following some pseudo MMO online mission game akin to warframe and it's monetization (since DE dipped and left the game in purgatory for the devs to figure out)

There are some odd instances of bugs rn such as getting stuck and unable to move or fast travel after viewing a memory node with a character, and a few minor visual glitches and/or persistent effects from abilities that happen occasionally. If it does happen just exit back to main menu and back in to fix for now until its patched offically. Art style is great, gameplay is fun, and now that it is a singleplayer/co-op game not tied to a shoddy server, its thoroughly enjoyable.

Also, anything that was in the cash shop or otherwise (minus original founders items when it was going to be a f2p mmo styled game) are all found in game through looting and quests, even unlocking the rest of the characters.

While this isn't what was originally envisioned by the devs, converting the game into an offline game to still be enjoyed instead of shutting the doors forever and not being able to play is something I wish more developers would do, or consider at the very least.
I'll give this game a 7/10 at it's current state. I hope to see it be improved further as time goes for a foreseeable future.

Improves upon just about everything Remnant: From the ashes did, and even that game was a great time. Can easily be played solo but is a blast of a time co-oping with some friends. Devs constantly fix things that are broken when it is brought to their attention, and the game itself off rip is cheaper than standard new game pricing these days.

If I had to put it to a score scale of 1-10, I'd give it a solid 9.5/10. There is still things they need to iron out, and theres always room for improvements. Even being pit against massive juggernauts of games that have released this year, Remnant 2 can easily stand tall and hold it's own among them.

The only game I've played outside of FF14 that the community seems to have an equally insanely huge thirst for playable characters.

Oh and the gameplay itself is pretty fun too.

Between some really bad cash grab practices, vaulting (removing basically) past content, and glaringly bad issues that are plaguing some people, myself included, such as quests missing to unlock fragments for the new rework of solar and void subclasses, and Hunter completely missing its void subclass for literally no reason for months on end...

I hate to give this game a negative review but the current state of things I just genuinely cannot tell people to play when they might get some of these game breaking issues as well.

After nearly 54 hours of game time, I know I still am not even remotely close to finished with the game in any aspect. Exploration? Story? Bosses? I'm still finding things new in the first zone you start off in let alone the rest and I've got (guesstimate here) somewhere between 60-75% of the map "uncovered" in the map fragment system. Literally every time I go back to somewhere I'm finding something new, if not fighting a boss I didn't find before.

The game by itself gently guides you towards the direction you're suppose to go with the grace markers shooting out a golden trail in the direction to progress but you can ignore it entirely and just do whatever your heart tells you to. The genuine open freedom, in the same package of the soulsborne series the veteran players love, I can only call it FromSoft's Magnum Opus. I am 100% blown away by this game, it has exceeded my hopes, expectations, and even my own hype as the game came closer and closer to release.

TL;DR is, this is the greatest game From Software has released bar none. I'll see you all in the Lands Between, Tarnished.

Early Access Review
As it stands right now, being still in early access and only having a few maps and perks to work with, I'd have to say I am very pleased with Killing Floor 2.

The game is very pollished for being early access that make many "finished" games look like... well... trash. The guns look and feel amazing, the A.I and actions from the zeds are very good, especially compared to the first killing floor, which also was and still is an amazing game. The perk leveling system is great, and a HUGE improvment to the original's system.

If you were a fan of the first Killing Floor, I urge you to pick this one up ASAP. If you're new to looking at Killing Floor, I urge you to give this a try, you won't be disapointed.
