Did anyone expect this?

[kitler53]

i very quickly went from "not so sure" to "hell yes!!".   returnal was amazing!

[kitler53]

i didn't expect it at this show but i did expect housemarque to do a "spiritual successor" to returnal like this.

Well 6/10

googles saros.   in astronomy it is "a period of exactly 223 synodic months".   also it's a finnish hockey goalie.

[kitler53]

saros will be day-1 for me too

[Dr. Pezus]

Thought hell is us was death stranding 2. Looks very interesting 

[Dr. Pezus]

Final 3-4 games looked very good

Seems like just a random 5 letter greek word they selected because it fits thematically. I doubt it is actually integral to the story.

Spoiler for Hidden:

But enough about Hapax, Saros looks cool

Didn't end up watching live - had to take kiddos to the eye doctor.

I thought this was pretty good for a State of Play.

Maybe not the best trailer, but awesome to see Housemarque so "soon". Feel like I would have expected them later this year for an announcement.

saw this posted on era.  reposting here mostly just because i want to watch it but i'm in a training right now and can't watch it yet:

It actually looks pretty good. I'm interested in it.  Hell is Us and Lost Soul Aside look interesting too.

[kitler53]

yeah, definetly into tides of annihilation.   

feels a bit like what forespoken was trying to achieve with a bit of dr. strange and shadow of the colossus mixed in.   i must admit i'm very into gwendolyn as a character,.. beyond being hot the voice actor is the same as shadowheart whom i love in BG3.    

not sure this is going to be the best game ever but i'll guess it is at least a solid 80's critical score and totally a type of game i love.

[Dr. Pezus]

Yeah I actually thought this was from square enix when I saw the first trailer
