My 'logic' is absolutely unassailable - or are you saying that there aren't dozens of other pieces of media that feature extremely attractive women (and men for that matter)?
Getting all whiny because Returnal's main character looks like Ripley instead of 2B is pretty pathetic, don't you think?

Shitting up the review thread for ten pages before the review embargo even lifts...
Now imagine how bad it will be once the reviews drop.
It's not that hard. I saw a reviewer or streamer finished it while he dropped Sekiro.
Just keep moving and try to learn the enemy patterns.

We generally agree on most things Bo but here I must disagree with you
What you call slow and clunky is inertia and mass, i.e a move takes a certain time to conduct and is not easy to interrupt randomly half-way through. In most games this is taken away since so many do not like it. However, it becomes a different very tactical combat when present since comitting to a move is suddenly a big thing (in other words - do not mash buttons).Maybe that is what you meant but it is not harder than it needs to be, the Souls game are hard because combat is in ways more akin to RL. Personally I find strong pros and cons with both approaches but I hate when in PC FPSes direction means so little since you can spin 180 degrees on a dime when there is no intertia/mass and you use mouse as a control. It makes the gameplay much less thoughtful.

His rating is a buy, and says it's an absolute blast to play.

I hate to break it to you, but I totally agree here. This doesn't mean the ridiculous pacey movement in Returnal is realistic, also sword movement in games and films are usually too slow vs reality. In a fight you would swing your sword in a blink of an eye, but of course you don't have infinite stamina which will eventually slow you down.

Exactly the number I expected previously so far:

Predict Returnal's Metacritic Score
With Returnal releasing around the corner how do you think it ends up?

Fair fucking play on that prediction. I didn’t expect it to be as high as this despite thoroughly enjoying Resogun.Exactly the number I expected previously so far:

Did none of the reviews knock a few points off for the main character being a munter?

“The gameplay is as thrilling in hour one as it is in hour 40, the world never feels dull and the challenge is as satisfying as it is brutally difficult.”
40hrs?!? Bro!

Also, both GI and GS praised the haptics and the 3D audio which enhance the gameplay. Nice.

Seems like it needs 40-50 hours to finish.
It is twice the time of the last acclaimed rogue-like game, Hades.

The biased Spanish media bringing down the average of a Sony exclusive once again. Not in the least surprising.
The game is a legit GOTY contender and all haters eat crow. Sweet.

What? Sigourney Weaver is a real person, you can't apply my argument on that. I was speaking about the 3D art, the ingame model, not the real person. A more accurate example would be if they make an Alien game and they make a weird 3D model of Sigourney Weaver, that's my point. Same as with Control.
As I said, the live models they have used to make the Returnal or Control main characters are fine for me.
