Wondering what the people on Lemmy think :)

Looking for stuff to play mostly with 2 players, but anything is fine.

I looked through https://store.steampowered.com/category/action_fps/?facets13268=6%3A1&flavor=contenthub_toprated (Shooters with tag "coop") but for some reason there's stuff like Counter-Strike and Team Fortress etc. in there, and while you can play those cooperatively, really they're competitive games.

I didn't say that the overall review is 'mostly negative', to be clear; I said that almost all of the (many) negative reviews that exist seem to be talking about the failure to live up to remnant 1.

Thanks for the detailed review; it's helpful to have a nice comparison between the two. I did enjoy Remnant 1 quite a bit. Would you say the DLC you played is worth buying even considering the generally mixed reviews?

Just to chime in, I'm in agreement with goodeye8. I liked R1 but R2 is fleshed out a lot more. Its a lot more fun and engaging.

I found that in R2 I played and replayed every area to get the variations and fight different bosses or defeat them in diffdrent manners I didnt do everything 100% but I did most of everything. In R1 I think I only went back to defeat one boss in an alternate manner. I know that's not really a measurable way to give feedback, but it's my anecdotal way of saying its a better game.

It's pretty much just an expansion to the first world and expanded the lore of that world. I thought the first world was also the most interesting so I definitely enjoyed it. I didn't try out the new archetype but it looked interesting. I think it's definitely worth picking up on sale.
