10 Video Games That Make You A Better Gamer

6. Remnant: From The Ashes

Dark Souls III
Gunfire Games

Putting a game which resembles, and is clearly inspired by, the Dark Souls franchise in this list was decision greatly thought out, and Remnant stands cut above the rest. While there are definitely similarities between this game and the Dark Souls franchise, there are so many aspects which make it unique.

Remnant avoids reliance on the slash and roll format, and though it still allows players to try it with a melee build, it predominantly focuses on firearms and modifications. Figuring out which combinations of weapons and traits is the most beneficial for your playstyle is half the skill requirement of Remnant, and is one of the main factors that makes it stand out.

Furthermore, it is one of the few Dark Souls inspired games that prioritises aiming and mechanical skills in ranged combat as opposed to melee, giving it a truly unique feel.

Finally, the difficulty of this game and its teamwork-reliant multiplayer format forces players to learn how best to handle any given encounter or be killed, thus forcing players to improve on their timing, aiming, and problem solving to get through it.
