Re: Interview: Returnal PS5 Developer Housemarque Talks Story, Replayability, and Value

The game looks decent and I hope it does well. The price is a factor for me but I'm not averse to paying out £70 for a game. Replayability is key, I enjoy shoot em ups and I imported Ketsui from Japan on release. Its a game which on the face of it can be completed very quickly, however to beat the game with a good score on higher difficulties requires mastery of epic proportions which has endless amounts of replayability, I have sunk over one hundred hours into it. The thing is, Ketsui is a genre defining game which for me is worth the cash, will Returnal be this genre defining game, it will have to be if I'm paying £70.

I thought the game was incredible (except the lobby). I played as Nagoriyuki and loved the control system which was very different from other characters. The gameplay seemed very tactical like Sam Sho. The combo system whilst dialled back is still capable of being exploited for decent combos, there is a deep system in there for those who want it. I haven't enjoyed a fighting game this much in years and it could well be my game of the year.
