Let's Play Returnal (BLIND) - Episode 5
1ORIGINAL RECORD DATE: January 9th, 2025.
Returnal was both requested & gifted to me by the viewer Arcanux. Leaving them as the sole reason this Let's Play was possible.
This was not a game I had any knowledge about before being introduced to it. After a brief look at the game's trailer & some gameplay on the Steam store page, I grew an interest. Not to mention the game was listed as (Or at least containing) "Roguelite/like" elements. Something I've become quite fond of in the past couple years.
Unlike the Roguelite/like titles I'm familiar with however, Returnal seems to have an involved storyline with a proper ending. In-fact, the entire idea of dying & starting a new run is relevant to the narrative. Sprinkle in some dark & unsettling imagery with a mystery driven plot, and you've got me intrigued. Not to mention the game's difficulty is as I would expect from a game of this genre. Making decisions between what items and weapons to use, when to upgrade, when to save resources, and learning to move properly in combat. As one single mistake could lead the protagonist's death.
Due to the nature of this being a completable game, it will be treated as a traditional Let's Play. Rather than the usual Willy Nilly treatment my other Rogue titles get. With, as always, the possibility of bonus episodes.
Episodes of Returnal are recorded in 1440p at 60fps, with each being around 1 hour in length.
Let's Playing a requested game with a central narrative & unique take on the Roguelite genre? Impossible to be Tigerfrost.
NOTE: This Let's Play is marked as "BLIND". Which means it's my first time playing & experiencing the game. Expect my knowledge to be limited, and my learning skills to be slow.
