Saros

Just finished today.

Overall I preferred Returnal but I really enjoyed this game too.

I preferred the items and things in returnal, the artifacts in Saros feel a bit boring somehow.
 
I liked this to start with but it got a little boringh after a while, think I prefferd Returnal even though that was more frustrating at times.
 
I beat Shepherd yesterday on my third attempt. Was a cool boss fight, but not as cool as the Architect, who again I took down on my third attempt. That fight really reminded me of the 2nd boss in Returnal - Ixion, but on a much, much bigger scale.

I was doing alright in Biome 7, but then the game kept throwing in a mental lock in room and I was getting mugged, lol.

My armour upgrade tree is looking a bit empty since Legion so I thought I'd go back to an earlier Biome and grind a while. Just smashed Biome 2 and the boss on my first run (I activated the eclipse right away too).

There are so many things to unlock in the armour tree! I definitely need to revisit earlier biomes to farm Halcyon.

So I decided today to start from Biome 1 and work through the biomes / bosses.

My base weapon proficiency is about 22 I think. Well, I've just blasted my way through Biomes 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 in a single run and have just landed in Biome 7 with 60 proficiency!

What a ride so far. Gonna see if I can finish the game from here, but not sure I'll be able to.

If not, then I'll have fun blasting through the biomes again. :)

So I beat Priestess on my first go, but to be honest by the time I got to her I think I was a little over powered! Had to nope out of the last Biome for now as I need to enhance my armour tree some more. So I started Biome 1 again, and I'm currently part way through Biome 3, but had to call it a day for real life stuff. This time I'm also completing the nightmare strands on each Biome as I go. This is massively boosting my weapon proficiency! I think I was at something like 45 by the time I fought the 2nd boss. It makes life a bit more fun to trounce those enemies that gave me a hard time previously. Shallow thinking, I know, but fun nonetheless! :p

I got to the last biome without ever really understanding the relationship between drive and Lucenite for weapon proficiency levelling. I'm such a dumbass, lol.
 
I downed the last boss today for the first time, and now I'm following the breadcrumbs in the epilogue. In his last phase I just used Prominence on him repeatedly till he was dead.

I think the meta weapon for me is repeater crossbow and Prominence with vacuum bomb, both level 45 and above. Seems to destroy everything.

Getting close to the end-end now.

Not sure I'll go for the Platinum on this - but I'll see what the requirements are and whether I can be bothered.

I have finally completed this after doing the epilogue. The last boss seemed much harder than before though. Or at least it felt that way to me.

Anyway. Bit of an anti climax, but I'm glad to have it ticked off my list.

Not sure whether I'm going to plat this. Might leave it a while and come back to it later.

An enjoyable game but not the GOTY I was hoping for. Great fun, great boss fights, but didn't grab me like Returnal did.

Funny thing. I literally only just found out if you hold dodge for 2-3 seconds you go into a sprint mode. Makes running through biomes a bit quicker. Lol, would have been handy to know that 60-70 hours ago! :p

Yeah this is what I favoured too, or the smart rifle, not having to look where firing sometimes is such an advantage
