Smooth controls and amazing momentum. You wont find many shooters that feel as great as Returnal. Moving, evading and shooting are top notch. The Roguelike aspects leave a lot to be desired with how shallow they feel and the story is uninteresting. The suspend feature is a godsend with how long a playthrough can be.

Still, when gameplay is king and Returnal excels at it, its hard to knock it for how fun it is to play.
