Beat the Sonic Triple Trouble 16-bit fan remake as Super Sonic. Pretty good.
Played an hour of Returnal.
Having not played shooters in a while because they're almost all in first-person view (Shit by default.) or slow third-person, I'm bothered about the lack of analog movement with a keyboard. Didn't used to care, but now I think of how unimaginative the console manufacturers are for funding so many 3D shooting games and never coming up with a fusion between analog navigation and the speed and precision of something like a mouse. This game lets you use a mouse and controller at the same time, doesn't deactivate one when the other is used, as is so common. Feels rather nice, but my controllers are too heavy to use with one hand for so long. The Wii nunchuck doesn't have enough buttons... PC game peripheral designers and PC players are such cowards.
Thought lack of shoulder swapping would be totally fine in a shooter with such open environments, but it does bother me after all. I am blinded when coming around objects from the right, as is always the case in games where the character is so far on the left.
