Highly agree OP. Feels fresh yet familiar at the same time. Still my favourite game this gen.
nial thinks so, then I guess it counts!
Lets be real, elden ring is just dark souls 4.
Let’s be real, Returnal is just 3D Resogun.
I also thought that at the beginning of the game, but my opinion changed as I played. I wouldn't want them to change the game design. I still remember the curses I threw at the game design when I first played Demon's Souls, and then I played the entire series(after 6 months of rehabilitation). This game is a bit like that.Some of the poor decisions made in the rogue-lite implementation hold it back from greatness.
Don't you dare hate on The Bouncer. That game was like playing a movie back in the day.Don’t know about Returnal, it’s a rougelike, not my cup of tea….
It’s amazing every new generation there’s a new slew of PlayStation only players who latch onto the tit of whatever new IP Sony tries to introduce at the beginning of the generation is the best game of the generation. Let’s see the Bouncer, Lair, the Order and now Returnal…. Amazing lol
There’s a few out there Lies of P, Hi-Fi Rush, Octopath…. Just those three alone I played and finished this gen.

Does the game pluck the characters from a pixelated world into a more "realistic" world? The background looks really clean compared to the pixelated characters. Not a fan.
I have to agree that the difficulty most turn off most gamers. It’s beyond brutal and cryptic. It’s totally my kind of thing but so not-mainstream. A checkpoint system of some sort would’ve helped.Maybe for those able to leave the 1st level… Brutal difficulty and poorly explained mechanics are a turn off for me.
Ah ok, never played them. Your screenshot was kind of jarring seeing pixel characters against a much cleaner background. Versus Octopath that keeps the design consistent. Yeah the Octopath trailer really shows how good the game looks. I really like the style of it.Its the same as Xenogears, Grandia, and many other RPGs from the PS1 era. Sprite based characters running around in 3D polygon worlds.
Let's be real, Returnal is just 3D Matterfall.Let’s be real, Returnal is just 3D Resogun.
10 hours in level 1?! Holy shit!!! Guess I don’t feel so bad now I have it installed, wanna go back and try again at some point. Any tips???I have to agree that the difficulty most turn off most gamers. It’s beyond brutal and cryptic. It’s totally my kind of thing but so not-mainstream.

It took me like 10 hours to get out of level 1. Then things start to click. Until level 3 of course. Then you’re fucked again. The runs are too long for this to be a consumer friendly game of any type. Completely hostile game.
I wish i enjoyed rogue-like games so i could agreee with you OP, but cant agree. Amazing 3rd person shooter ruined by masochist progress mechanics.
Just hope whatever game Housemarque makes next, is not a rogue-like. They make games with great gameplay, it deservers a bigger audience.
It's last gen (ps4)Death Stranding
