Any game that starts you with a pitchfork and let's you kick around the heads of your enemies has to be good.

Blueglass needs a wireless mic so he can be added to the audio mix at will.

This game really needs a re-release similar to Duke 3d and Shadow Warrior on Steam.

Random fact about Blood Shadow Warrior. Back then midi was pretty huge for games but CD-ROM was also brand new. BloodShadow Warrior was originally developed to play through midi but since the game was released on cd they skipped it entirely and used pre-recorded tracks off a midi device. All the files for the songs to play back in midi still exist within the game but cannot be used unless you use one of the newer build engines.

Edit: Derpin my old pc games

You'll have to wait for the next time they reset the stream, cause that's when the VODs go up on twitch. And however long it takes them to put them up in the Reddit thread you can link/make a sticky tab of to get all the VODs when they go up.

That seems a little bit delayed in being updated. Somebody linked a youtube playlist in the comments which I believe is an automatic upload of the runs as they finish:

I liked watching the Duke3D/Blood runs but that guy was a real boring commentator. This guy is way more upbeat and engaging, even if I can barely watch the actual run.

Yeah I was already kinda nauseous and this guy's crazy wobbling movement was making it a lot worse.

He's a decent commentator though, so I'll probably just leave it in the background.

Back when this game came out it was pretty impressive at its time. The sickness isn't as bad if you're controlling it and he's intentionally doing things that make you go faster which don't help - instead of just going in 1 direction he's most always traveling in 3 to increase his speed further than traveling on 1 axis. I used to love the game back when it was out but Descent 2 is the best :colbert:

Yep. (And nobody mentions or admits the existence of Descent 3.)

The game isn't nearly as disorienting/nauseating if you're playing it normally, he keeps wobbling around because apparently it makes you go faster or something.

That said, though, people still used to complain all the time that Descent made them sick. So it's not a new reaction.
