Well said.
There needs to be a resurrection of scifi alien games this gen. Kallisto Protocoll is another very promising title in development.

Working with Returnal music in my headphones, it's really, really good: https://youtu.be/Zf8m7S5AAvM
What the hell is going on there?!
This will be such a weird experience I cannot wait.

Tentacle grabs! It's going to be so good lol. Really excited to start hearing and reading all the logs and other story related content. Understanding Atropos is going to be a trip.
Oh yes, so cool that someone from Control is involved with the narrative, loved how that game handled story and lore.
Whatever Sony changed with today's PS5 firmware update hasn't fixed the countdown bug; still implies Returnal unlocks Thursday 13:00 UK time. What a tease.
I will be there at midnight on Thursday.

I was not liking the OT title.....but I'll take a Resogun reference, lol.
Massively! It's my favourite example of world-building in any game to date. I was perpetually gripped and it became one of the few games where I was not only absorbing every note and scrap I found, but also actively hoping to find more around each corner.
From what I gather, it's the mod (of which there can be 1 or more) on the pistol that's leveling up, and on subsequent runs, when you find the pistol again that happens to have the familiar mod(s), their level can be anything between 1 and the max level you've gotten them to. So leveling up a weapon's mod doesn't mean the weapon OR the mod are going to be permanently stronger, but rather that they CAN be stronger when found in the world.
Same here! My only platinum trophy. Made me even go back and watch Fringe again and I started with House of Leaves. Emphasis on started though...
Yeah that game was great, I was really enthralled by the videos esp the doctors videos, a lot of bits of info all over.
I'm def going back to finish up some lose ends on it. To plat it.
Loved the 'Lost'-style briefing videos in Control. The 'Threshold Kids' ones were pretty creepy, though.
Dammnnnnn that gif is selling me even more
This is gonna be so fucking good. I wasn't originally going to get it (at least not right away at full price) but all the recent footage and previews have powered the hype so much that it's looking like the game will be worth every penny.
Love the aesthetics of this game too and how unique it is.
Nice OP. The chosen title wasn't my favorite, but still better than most.
I kind of wish this would be the title of the inevitable OT2.
Interesting, thanks. I might wait for some official feedback on this to make sure I'm into the progression. The way scaling and progression occurred in Remant turned me off after 30-ish hours. It was fun for the time, but it got old never feeling "stronger".
Nice OT!
I've been on blackout since the previews started rolling in but I'm absolutely thrilled that the perception of the game seems to have shifted - in no small part thanks to the deluge of glowing previews - and that people are accepting that it may very well be worth its high price for the quality new IP they seem to have managed to produce. I hope the sales and support continue up to and after the game reviews are out and the game is released proper.
It's been a long wait from preordering it months ago (basically as soon as I got my hands on a PS5) but the time is nigh. I'll be seeing y'alls tentacle ghosts this weekend!

Yeah, the impressions on the permanent progression seem kinda all over the place right now so if you're thinking it might be a sticking point, definitely wait for the reviews. Doing that myself too, for the same exact reason.
Awesome OT!
Title? Eh.
Selene Die On only works if Celine Dion is singing the closing credits song to the true ending.
The other astronaut is clearly Al. The game isn't called Returnal for nothing. She's clearly there to get Al back. Or something.

Is there infinite ammo in this game? Seems like it as I can't see an ammo counter going down anywhere?
Well I hope so, imagine playing a bullet hell game and suddenly your ammo runs out, nightmare.
But it's so perfect! The eyeball made me laugh, because of how well it pairs with Selene waking up suddenly.
OP
OP
Yeah I'm thinking it's going to be like Dead Cells where as you find better stuff through your runs then when you restart you're more likely to get better weapons but you still may end up with something fairly average.
I went from complaining about the price and waiting for a sale😬, to maybe I'll buy day one if it reviews well🤔, (enter glowing previews) to pre-ordering and taking Friday off work to play it. 🤤 Lol
Don't let me down Housemarque 😈
Been on blackout since the weekend... Can't wait.
Also good job on the OT, OP.

What this game is super successful at, #21: playing with verticality.
