Because of the way a high adrenaline level in Returnal leads to increased weapon proficiency, I feel like to be truly successful at the game, in true shmup fashion you have to go for long stretches without taking damage. This guarantees I will never be successful at Returnal.

I can't tell yet if I'm actually liking Returnal or if I'm just in another one of those emotional places where I want a tough game to stand in for my depression and other current challenges so that I can undergo the grueling ordeal of throwing myself against it until I triumph.

Replying to @carolynmichelle
The story and environment and visuals all look incredible. I’m just worried about trying to fit a game into my life that requires uninterrupted play for 4-5 hours at a time. I really do want to play it eventually. gosh, I hope they patch in some sort of “save and quit” feature.

None of my runs has lasted nearly that long yet (of course I’ve only made it to the second area thus far), and putting my console in rest mode has worked for now if I do need to stop mid-run, but I understand that’s not ideal for everyone.
