    I'd like if the narrative was better, personally. Maybe I've just been spoiled by Hades but when I get a roguelite action game now, I expect some ACTUAL differences between runs, dialogue, etc. The gameplay and gunplay is great, but the story is fricking awful, and it makes having to replay over and over less enjoyable than it could be, especially when all you're working towards is a shamalamadingdong ending of "NO JOHN, YOU ARE THE DEMONS."

          I mean, yeah, that's a guess sure, but why would a thread dedicated to [thing] want to hear you randomly trying to talk about it if you have literally 0 knowledge on the subject? It's a 3rd-person bullethell roguelite. Go into alien ruins, get upgrades and weapons, dodge the balls, kill bosses.

    Lmao @ morons who didn't play the game and don't realize that her being a grizzled old lady with no kids is relevant to the narrative, ie she put her career first and this is where it got her
    If anything this game encourages women to be less ambitious and put family building first

      I don't care. It's not entertaining. Stories are antithetical to fun & engaging gameplay.

        >Stories are antithetical to fun and engaging gameplay
        Hard disagree. Fun? Sure. Engaging? Not a chance. It's not enough for a game to be fun in the moment to moment gameplay, there needs to be overarching objectives that are compelling enough to make me want to keep playing.

        >narrative
        Who asked for an ugly old lady narrative? Is there something about roguelikes that require one?

        I wasn't trying to say Returnal has an amazing story, it doesn't, but it's sad that incels will overlook it because the girl isn't sexy enough. It's good DESPITE narrative flaws, not because of it.

          why? If the dev wanted to make money they would've put a hot bawd in it and that would be that. Isn't the fact that its repulsive to 'incels' proof that the devs achieved their goal of making a game that does not appeal to 'incels'? Why would you want these 'incels' playing the game anyway, clearly they're not a significant paying audience or anything.

    I honestly would've been interested in this had the protagonist been a cute girl rather than an old lady. Faceless/generic man would've been good too.

      The only reason I tried it is because it comes with the new ps plus catalog thing. I was never gonna pay $70 for an old lady game. I'm glad I gave it a chance though because it's pretty fun.

    I had no problems with Selene as a character, the writing on the other hand was sloppy. Selene's character arc bounces around depending where you are in game, which makes for a fricking wild experience of her acting insane and mindlessly referencing greek mythos in one biome and then fresh and clear minded the next. The Greek mythology tie ins don't really go anywhere either. Like, her dad played the piano? Why should I care since I have no goddamn clue what her relationship with her father was like. Very fun gameplay though, I wish it was faster pace. Like if I could set the game to 2x speed I think that'd be pure crack.

    There is also the small fact that it's an exclusive for an almost unsold console, if more people had a PS5 or it wasn't an exclusive maybe it wouldn't be this obscure despite being a kickass roguelike

    Game is not actually very good as far as roguelites go. Variety is nearly non-existent. Find myself just begging the game to give me one of the few viable weapons as the rest feel like trash.

    Returnal was a phenomenal game. The last great game I’ve played in a decade. PC et al missed out big.

    Complaining that the lead character was unattractive is incel-tier and the only thing they’ve got to attack it.
