Chronos doesn’t totally shed it’s VR veneer, but the simplicity of it’ roots make it an inviting, uncomplicated option for fans of Souls-likes and RPGs.

The original game just called Chronos came out before From the Ashes, so technically the areas are new, just we revisited them in From the Ashes, it's just the rather strange scenario of the "sequel" coming out before the 1st game so too speak, due to Chronos being a VR game, and Before the Ashes coming out after From.

If your really interested in the story and lore of Remnant I'd recommend you do get this although at a reduced price. Chronos was actually released before Remnant, but was a VR only and being VR meant it had a smaller market and thus smaller budget. Chronos Before the Ashes is just a non VR port of Chronos. The gameplay is kind of clunky and it's a fairly short game, but it kind of explains a lot about Remnant's story and lore and it's very apparent the events of Chronos have a big impact on Remnant. The heroes mission in Remnant initially was to find out what happened to the hero of Chronos who went missing. A lot of things make way more sense in Remnant if you play Chronos first.

It's not actually a Prequel. Chronos was originally a VR game and as you can guess being a VR game not many people played it. Remnant From the Ashes is a sequel to Chronos. The whole story of Remnant starts with your character looking for the lost Hero of Chronos. Chronos Before the Ashes is just a non VR port of the original Chronos. Which they renamed and released riding on the popularity of Remnant.

Combat needs polish. What made Remnant fun was the power trip of blasting away at hordes of enemies with fun and powerful guns in a souls-like in strange worlds. The melee weapons of Reamnant though weren't its strength, the start of the game is designed to teach you that unless you were ready to go wild melee is a bad idea. There needs to be much more if Cronos wants to avoid feeling like Lords of the Fallen, fortunately they've got a good base to work up from already

Chronos Before the Ashes isn't a Prequel to Remnant from the Ashes, but a non VR port of Chronos which was the predecessor to Remnant. They basically took that older VR game and made a non VR port of it likely as a quick cash grab to ride on the success of Remnant. I'd only recommend buying Chronos if your interested in the lore and story of Remnant, but beyond that don't expect much of what you got in Remnant which is a radically different game than Chronos.

It's not a prequel to Remnant. Chronos came out years before Remnant, but was only on VR. So it didn't have much of a budget and was kind of obscure. They took the setting of that game though and made the now more famous Sequel Remnant From the Ashes. Chronos Before the Ashes is just a non VR port of that original VR game. The gameplay it dated though and only really competed on the smaller VR market when it came out. Chronos Before the Ashes is really more there for those interested in the story and lore of Remnant than the actual gameplay.

Chronos Before the Ashes is just non VR port of the original VR only Chronos. I'd only recommend buying it if you're really interested in the story and lore of Remnant. It would help to explain a lot of things in Remnant. For example the story of Remnant begins with your character looking for the lost hero of Chronos.

i've just reached the Labyrinth, as i write this. Chronos Beofre the Ashes, to me... is the game that resonates with me most, compared to other adventure games. the ending isn't particularly favourable... but my head-canon is what allowed me to overlook it and buy the game. it resonates with me because of three reasons: *1) it's simplicity.* you're a simple warrior, armed with a simple sword and shield; and your objective is to slay a dragon. *2) it's difficulty.* i always wanted to know what a souls-like game felt to play... and now i know. the difficulty made me approach different enemies in different ways: "do i approach shield raised, do i rush it, or do i use the hit-and-run tactic?" *THIS* is the challenge i've been searching for! *3) it's puzzles.* along with difficulty, i also wanted a game that tested my intelligence, and Chronos did just that, most of the time. i didn't solve *all* of the puzzles unaided. i had to look up where all 4 Dragon Hearts were located (there's only 4, and i was worried i would never be able to access them again), how i could obtain Rare Dragon Shards and how to get passed certain puzzles - 3 or 4 times for that last one, if i remember (i hope i don't have to look up anything again). but i did find all 4 Stones all by myself, and i've solved the rest of the puzzles on my own. this is how i want my intelligence to be tested. to sum up: Chronos Before the Ashes is the game where i was a simple warrior, armed with sword and shield, sent on a quest to slay a dragon; that made me think about how to approach enemies and use my intelligence to solve puzzles. Chronos Before the Ashes is in my top 5 games.

To clarify. Chronos was a VR only game that came out in 2016. Remnant From the Ashes was released in 2019 and it had radically different graphical style and gameplay from Chronos, but the story of Remnant is the Sequel to Chronos. Chronos Before the Ashes is just a non VR port of Chronos released in 2020. I'd only recommend picking up Chronos Before the Ashes if you're really interested in the story and lore of Remnant. Remnant begins with your character looking for the main character of Chronos who went missing. A lot of things in Remnant make more sense after playing Chronos. Just don't expect the same kind of gameplay, or style in Chronos that you got in Remnant. Gameplay wise they're almost completely different.

I think the context for this game is kind of important. Chronos was a VR game that came out years before Remnant From the Ashes. Being VR meant a smaller market and thus smaller budget. The gameplay and design is also radically different from Remnant's. Chronos Before the Ashes is just a non VR port of Chronos. I would only recommend the game one at a reduced price. 20 bucks, or less in my opinion and I'd only recommend buying if your interested in the lore and story of Remnant. A lot of things in Remnant make more sense if you've played Chronos. The whole story of Remnant begins with you looking for the lost main character of Chronos.

The game is actually not bad at all, it feels like Dark Souls a lot, it’s just way easier than DS from what I’ve experienced . And it’s basically what happened before Remnant . The game has some weird moments with the camera due to being a VR game in the first place but still a great little game .

This isn't a new game. It's a non VR port of Remnant's VR only predecessor Chronos. They likely had another team work on it and all they had to do was adjust the camera for the non VR setting. I'd only recommend this game at reduced price(no more than 20 dollars) and even then only buy it if your interested in the story and lore of Remnant from the ashes. The Labyrinth, Yaesha, the Guardians, the Root, Haarsgard, even Synge the Dragon first appear in Chronos and the story of Remnant begins with your character looking for the lost Hero of Chronos. If you don't care about any of that stuff then I'd recommend you pass it. You won't find very similar gameplay in Chronos.

The gameplay is radically different and being a VR game with a much smaller budget that came out years before Remnant it's not going to be the same experience players found in Remnant.
