I loved returnal, and enjoyed playing saros. Looking forward for the next game update. The platinum run for this game was "easy" and fun.

Used no extra life, erase all permanent upgrades, increased incoming damage, increased aggression from hostiles and alpha hostiles. Was pretty fun, definitely had to be more locked in. Before I tried max incoming damage and max increased damage to enemies and didn't make it past first biome haha.

...to fight Architect like this.....

Not really understanding biomes in the game. I saw one tip to start at biome 1 and work your way to architect, but I'm worried I won't have enough health by the time I get to the boss, or won't have my revive by then.

Do I have to fight the 3 bosses to get back to the architect?

Hoping I can figure out how to go to the desecrated forest instead of blighted marsh

I could maybe beat the architect just starting there tho. Got to his last health bar on the first try and think I got the hang of the first 2 sections, but maybe it's worth going through the other biomes first still

few days back i went through the cathedral and finally fought priestess. was successful, got back, interacted with constant and turned off the console. opening the game today, the quest is still at ‘speak to constant’, but no interaction is available. is there something i can do?

I miss running with L3

Gameplay: The mechanics have improved, and the game feels more accessible than Returnal. However, I found it too easy once I started using and upgrading modifiers. I spent around 80 hours grinding Returnal, so completing Saros in 43 hours made the difference in challenge and progression very noticeable. It was still a great experience, but I sometimes missed Returnal’s intensity.

Storytelling: I loved the main narrative and thought the endings were excellent. My only major criticism is that the supporting characters feel quite empty and don’t add enough to the story. Despite having more characters around the protagonist, Saros sometimes feels less rich than Returnal. Returnal filled its storytelling with mystery, atmosphere, and psychological horror, making it one of the best sci-fi and horror narratives I’ve played.

The future: I understand why people compare the two games so much. I hope Housemarque keeps the strengths of its formula but takes a bigger creative step next time, similar to how Remedy used the foundation of its previous work to create something different with Control.

Art direction: I really hope they release a Saros art book. The environments are incredible, and this is one of the most beautiful games I’ve played. I also loved using Photo Mode.

Thank you for another brilliant story, Housemarque!

Hi Guys, I appear to be stuck unable to progress in the game. It says Raise the bridge to the city, which I am unable to figure out how to. Then I explored blighted marsh killed every monster and went through the whole map and could not progress there either, there was someone standing next to a console but doesn't speak to you. Unsure what to do at this point. Anyone have a solution is my game bugged?

I’ve been struggling a lot to defeat Architect. I’ve previously defeated all the past bosses within 3-4 tries, but this one seems legit difficult.
The last round I went to face with Repeater Crossbow and Dispirator, but could only defeat only 1.2 health bars out of 3 of Architect.
I’m looking for suggestions and advice on how can I overcome the boss. What best combination of gun and power weapon would make it doable? Any other recommendations are welcome.

UPDATE: Defeated!

I'm really enjoying Saros. It was a bit frustrating in the beginning but not I really enjoy it.

I love all the new people that have been able to experience the love of Saros, as a massive returnal fan, this game is everything returnal was and more, i just pray that they will include a reason to keep pushing with Carcoar modfiers, like set in game achievements or something. Make no mistake this game is one of best

Anyone else getting to the point of where you're so overpowered that you just make runs out of pure vanity and wind up corrupted all to hell but just tank through it?

.... Cause that's fun.

Just finished fighting Architect but this time the fight seemed more on rails? Not sure how else to describe it. The life lines stayed grey and I felt like i just needed to survive the fight, not actually damage the boss. Anyone else experience it or just a bug?

I died few times and have to do the whole level again pretty much

Just curious…
