Someone here once compared it to Resogun, one of very few games I've achieved Platinum in, but I am unclear on that comparison.

Fwiw I have played well over 100 hours of Returnal and I recoil in disgust every time someone tells new players you need to remap all of the buttons. The default is perfect.

I’m with veni on this one. Some people are just allergic to the face buttons these days, but the default layout works great.

Also, is my tower score still on top of y'all?

I don’t think I’ve ever rebound (?) the controls in a game. It’s a weird brain thing where for me it just feels wrong to do it and adapting to whatever a game controls like at default is very pleasing to me. It’s part of the fun. I like to approach it how the developers generally intended me to and then do my own thing with that. Limits fuel creativity, something something.

Putting dodge on a shoulder button and auto sprint in a game with holes is loving crazy to me. Just click the stick.

I am fine with stick clicking but can also see where some people would prefer not to because it feels gross and/or imprecise.

Also going from walk to sprint in Returnal has such a satisfying little jolt to it and the transition is totally effortless. Sometimes I just want to walk around for a sec before going into a 45mph run even if I'm running 95% of the time I'm playing.

I've decided stick clicking sucks because I was trying to get the trophy for picking up materia in FF7 CC using it to run and it turned out it was much easier just holding down the run button.

Maybe I am just crazy, but I feel like it varies wildly form game to game. Despite being such a basic function I feel like it's perfect in some games, feels like crap in some games and is tolerable in most games.

Returnal is sort of unique in how much I liked how it felt.

Oh I missed the auto sprint thing. Nah you gotta have that auto sprint. There was never any point in the game where I wanted to be walking. The holes are still extremely easy to avoid with auto-sprint if you just like, are careful.

It had nothing to do with falling in holes for me I just think it feels good like hitting the nitrous in a racing game.

It was a noble attempt I guess but the 'only supers kill' system wasn't exactly logical to newcomers and it had almost as many "dude with gun" characters as smash bros has fire emblems

the stage mashups were super cool though, especially watching a bunch of loco rocos attack a mg ray

Does smash bros have any non whimsical characters? Snake is whimsical as far as I'm concerned.

You gotta be silly from time to time, laughter is the best medicine. But I suppose Ryu from Street Fighter is pretty serious! I'd say Chun-Li since she's the best, but she is known to laugh and say lighthearted things sometimes.

(Edit: I forgot Chun isn't playable, crazy)

We take anime aliens... pretty seriously around here. But I suppose I could see the humor and mirth in such a thing.
