If the game had proper builds and build variety it would quite possibly be close to a 10/10 game, but as someone who has played a lot of roguelikes it was let down by that.

Brilliant game nonetheless, incredible atmosphere and the soundtrack IS 10/10.

Sad day. Dude's games where great. Returnal was the sh1t. 10/10 at the beginning before the updates. Plus the Tower was endless fun.

Huh? What's proper builds and build variety here?

The ability to collect items over the course of a run to specialise how you play or your abilities. In a way that can greatly alter how you play to the extent that

Binding of Isaac for example has a functionally infinite number of item combinations, many of which are specifically designed to work in conjunction.

I know Returnal is designed as being more arcade like but I think more defined builds would have elevated the game.

Yea Returnal wasn't tryna be like Binding of Isaac

That is/was one of the hardest games I ever played

What updates to the game?

I'll check it out to see if I wasn't to return to it

OP how far have you gotten in this game?

Ma$s exodus

I hope they weren't forcing them to make a GAAS . Returnal was my favorite PS5 game at one point. I just wish it wasn't a roguelike.

Played only 1 hour of that sh1t couldn't get back to it.

I’ll most likely play it on PC later.

I thought it was a really good game but extremely hard

You know, i've type like 3 responses but wasn't satisfied with any lol. Anyway, I kinda get it but I don't at the same time is what those post would have amounted to lol.

Depends on when you played it. Technically it is easier than it was within the first months of release. Outside of the Tower of Sisyphus balance changes and stability changes, there hasn't been any(will not be anymore either). i don't know when the last time you played it lol.

Hard, but fun as hell... the sense of accomplishment felt nice

I don't blame him, Housemarque is probably going to be a GAAS support team for PlayStation

Should preface this by saying that I’m pretty casual with gaming these days (life)…anyway, Returnal is probably the only game I’ve played where the general consensus is that it’s a hard game but never did I feel like I was being cheated. I think they got it just right and finally getting the perfect run and beating it actually felt like an achievement.

Still run the Tower from time to time. Wish they’d done co-op for it.
