Harry knows how to craft a game. His passion is special. The arcade feel you get from Returnal, as a gamer that loves arcades, has me going back to the game almost everyday to help in co-op. It’s one of my all time favorite games now. So looking forward to seeing what Housemarque develops next. Long time fan.
So you wanted 15 biomes....we got 6.... are you saying there is hope / chance to get a DLC.. Yes i know Housemarque doesnt really make DLC.... let me hope lol
This game is a flop because its too harsh. He calls that challenging but I call it unbalanced. Obviously when many gamers can't progress in the game you could potentially end up playing it for years. Unable to beat the first boss, Phrike. I enjoy that playstation have dumped the game onto playstation plus because they'd rather sell other games that allow for progression. The guns are weak, permanent upgrades are badly done, you literally play this game find no ether and return to start having made zero progress. The permanent currency ether buys nothing permanent and what it buys is rubbish. If this guy had a brain and put in an easy mode this game would have sold millions and would have been compared to great games like Zelda. Playstation have correctly shelfed it into playstation plus because its a poorly thought out game with frustrating progression. The difficulty makes me wonder is this guy a bit too interested in making it challenging rather than considering that he is in the gaming business. People like a bit of strategy to fights but enjoy getting the win. The game has failed to become a top game because this guy wanted to borderline torture average gamers who need an easy mode or even a medium mode. Simply let ether buy permanent upgrades for your guns so you can progress, The pointlessness of making runs over & over with no character progression. I will remember returnal as game which should have been amazing but was made too difficult by minor inventory progression issues. The character just remains weak. It's becomes pointless despite good game controls and interesting enemies. You gave the boss too much energy and the players no energy. Gamers just keep trying to beat an easy boss over & over because you failed to give the character life-force refills like the way other games do. There's nothing original about this, it's just bad management, it spoiled the game. Will you simply make an ad on with an easy mode and fix your game before more people buy the ps5 !
Robotron didn't have an easy mode. The grades I got in school didn't have an easy mode. Life ain't got an easy mode. That's why Im glad to face a challenge from time to time. It can be frustrating but, you know what, Amiga games were frustrating. Shadow of the beast was frustrating. Turrican was frustrating. Rick Dangerous was frustrating. Right now we live in a Candy Crush world where teens are treated with content which are lying to them, telling them "you can get things done easily". And that's not a good thing. These guys are playing tough, not because its trendy, but because they have been arcadey from day one. That is something I respect, even if it means I won't see level 2.
I think you missed the fundamentals of the game. It's not centered around ether, it's centered around obolites. Obolites are your currency in the game. Once you get the sword in biome one the game becomes much easier. Basically the goal is 1000 obolites in biome one, upgrades and a level 5 weapon preferably a carbine going into phrike. It's fairly easy once you learn the fundamentals. I do co op alot and can help you through the game if you are interested. But I get the frustration, I rage uninstalled the game 3 times before I became obsessed with it.
Geez that’s one big baby post. You just sound like you want someone to hold your hand. If the game is too hard for you play something else. Did this game really hurt you that badly
@ChronoMune This game was mostly a failure, because nobody even considers it or remembers it. Life includes average gamers and even people with arthritis, A challenge could be had on Hard mode , but this game just lazily has 1 mode.

One of the best gaming experiences I’ve ever had. Can’t wait for the sequel 🤞🏼
Returnal is easily my favorite game of the current generation of consoles. Harry and his team should be incredibly proud.
Thanks for this interview! I'm a rabid fan of this game, and now this development studio.
the most underrated and underappreciated game of all time
Fascinating interview. Wonderful game.
Can't wait to play this for first time on PC next few weeks
so glad this game is coming to pc soon. day 1
So you wanted 15 biomes....we got 6.... are you saying there is hope / chance to get a DLC.. Yes i know Housemarque doesnt really make DLC.... let me hope lol
