Saros | Review Thread

will I like this if I didn't like Returnal? is more of the same basically?
Why didnt you liked returnal is the question here. If you didnt liked it because it was too punishing or didnt had any meaningful run to run progression or you just didnt liked the gameplay.

Depends, what didn't you like about Returnal?

I'd say SAROS is far more accessible than Returnal. The gunplay and overall gameplay loop is better here. I don't see another action game topping SAROS this year imo

yeah mostly the gameplay loop.. it got repetetive fast and the difficulty kind of killed it, dying and having to go through it again

Well the gameplay was king in returnal and its the same amazing gameplay here, but you can customize your difficulty a lot more. Also getting progression after every death and you dont have to restart the game from the beginning everytime you die, because there is a biome selection now after you beat the boss
 
The most frustrating part of Returnal/Saros is that watching clips on youtube doesn't do it justice. Housemarque absolutely nails player movement and gunplay in a way that is wholly unique. So many people don't give it a fair chance

God this game is incredible. Biome 4 is kicking my ass. The game looks and runs so good on PS5 pro. The amount of particles on screen sometimes are unreal and it looks so crisp

There was a day 1 update that balanced the difficulty and i must say its not an easy game at all. Biome 4 started to kick my ass, i dont use the carcosan modifier so im playing on "balanced". Seems like a perfect difficulty. I can only imagine how fucking hard this game can be with negative modifiers or even turning off the armor matrix

Still no OT??? Someone needs to be banned or something at this point...... Anyways, incredible looking/sounding/feeling game and the concerns about being too easy are a non-issue imo.
