Returnal was Spring '21 and Rift Apart came out that summer. I was just saying that, when Returnal released, it was really one of only 2 true "next-gen" PS5 games. All the rest were still being made on the previous generation. I think this game got a lot of extra attention because the arena of true next gen games was pretty slim at the time.

If anything, it was overrated. Not to say that it was bad, but it got more praise than it was due because it was literally the ONLY real PS5 exclusive outside of Demon's Souls for a good long time. It was a solid 7 or 8 (depending on your tolerance for roguelike gameplay) and people were calling it a 10/10.
