Yep thats returnal. The boss footage literally looks like the second fight in returnal. I just hope it lives up to the first game.

 

[lughnasadh123]

Playing Returnal with a Dualsense was blissful. Would be great if they could improve anything on that.

 

[DeepEnigma]

Looks dope,

[Sethbacca]

Returnal already looked excellent, and this looks like they took it up a notch. Not a day one for me but probably an eventually.

 

[FudgeIt]

Are those Sony headphones good? Seems like they're awesome for this type of game. I am on the lookout for new headphones for sure, if they are even worth getting because sometimes my daughter calls us in the middle of the night so I would need one headphone off my ear a bit.

I'm kind of wait and see. I haven't finished the first returnal , because I hit a skill gap that I can't personally pass. I can't git gud… and move forward.

 

[Nankatsu]

Still think this flies to close to Returnal, but man, I did loved Returnal so...

Im using Pulse elite, fantastic sound and the integration with PS5 UI and Edge controller is amazing.

I have the Pulse 3d headphones that came out with the PS5. They're pretty okay. Not the most comfortable things in the world and the cover is peeling off the ear cups. For the price you could do a lot better honestly. No clue if the Pulse 3d Elites are any better.

It's basically Returnal 2.

How is this a bad thing? lol

Returnal has RT reflections on PC. Would be cool if they added them to the Pro for this game.

Are they comfortable? I am worried by head feels too hot or it's too heavy on my ears. Ruins the whole experience. For context, I was using the Hyper x clouds which were like pillows but they were wired headphones. I sort of want wireless.

 

[Team Skoda]

I wish I was excited for this game, as I ended up loving Returnal.

 

[midnightAI]

Mine did the same, got replacements off ebay for 6 quid that are comfier than the originals

I'll have to peep it, I didn't even think about replacement cushions for this. I have super nice Wicked Cushions on my Sony headphones. Wonder if they make those for the Pulse. To google I go.

Update for anyone curious : Wicked Cushions Pulse 3d Replacement Set

 

[GymWolf]

Gonna disable all the controller gimmicky shit first thing first

 

[Zathalus]

I still find it funny that they advertise haptics, 3D sound, and fast loading. We know, the PS5 launched over five years ago.

 

[Physiognomonics]

I like the gameplay but sadly Returnal was too random for me.

I was getting frustrated when I had to restart a run because of missing an important item. And starting everytime with the same shitty weapon really sucked.

 

[Miles708]

Maybe with the release of Saros, Returnal will finally go down in price and i can snag that for around 20 bucks.

This is more streamlined, you don't start from the beginning every time and there is a more robust progression between runs.

It's just me being picky, because it isn't actually.

And there is no PS4 version that won't have these features.

The sound is OK but...they break easily and always at the same spot.

It's both planned obsolescence, QC being shit and Sony not giving 2 fooks

Mine broke too. I'm curious where did yours break at?

 

[StueyDuck]

Goty on its way...

 

[Horseganador]

Day one, it looks even better than returnal.

 

[yogaflame]

Im at last last stage of Re9, and once I complete it, I will purchase both Crimson and Saros.

 

[hussar16]

does anyone else not care about games like this ,i want story charcaters ,not random crap coming at me and its ''good'gameplay. these kind of games dont do it for me.

Huh? It has a story and fully mocaped cast of characters. It's gameplay + story.

it's always on the left, or the right side of the headband mck

 

[mckmas8808]

Yep! Mine broke on the left headband. Right above the ear. Got pissed, then bought another one lol. Now when I take it off, I treat the headset like it's a newborn baby.

never, ever ever buy headsets or headphones from Sony.

It's been the same shit since the PS3 headsets, they ALWAYS break at the fucking band, heck, even the XM5's, a 400+ Eurodollars BT headphones, break at the hinges of the cups (a known fault with this model and also previous ones).

Again, fuck Sony and their horrible QC, no one can convince me that they don't do it on purpose at this point..

 

[SomeNorseGuy]

Fuck, looks like a bunch of fun!
..and yeah looks sweet aswell

 

[LavitzSlambert]

They definitely made the best use of the controller with Returnal, but it truly killed battery life even after I routed controller audio through headphones, lowered haptics, and turned off the adaptive triggers to save my joints.

 

[TerribleAtThisGame]

Returnal had exceptional sound design, like some of the best shit out there. Same with haptics. Housemarque are really good at polishing the "basics" to a sheen to where even the simplest things like a jump feel satisfying.

Saros isn't hitting the spot like Returnal did for me in terms of art direction and the character but if there's one thing that's certain is that HM know wtf they're doing in those departments.

I've used them for extended play sessions, and they've been fine for my needs. They're lightweight, though I do wish the ear cushions were softer. They can also connect to your phone simultaneously while you're playing, so you don't have to take them off to answer calls.
