What were you expecting? This is for those that found RoR2 3D to be underwhelming (in that, for me it’s really overwhelming to play). RoRR brought all the features I liked in concept and applied it to the format I loved: pixel art 2D.

It wouldn’t even remotely resemble the first game if it’s wasn’t 2D. If you want 3D Risk of Rain then there’s Risk of Rain 2.

I was kind of hoping for that as well. But I guess it would be less a remaster, more a remake in that sense.

I don’t really think Risk of Rain Returns is a remake just looking at it. It’s still 2D after all.

Its what I was hoping in 2, in that its a straight upgrade of 1.

It’s a significant improvement upon the first game. Update art, improved mechanics, better online multiplayer support and some new content. If you loved the first, you’ll love RORR.
