President Ark posted: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. He's wobbling because the game just adds the vectors in each direction. So if you're holding down "up and left", instead of the game going "okay, you go 1.0 speed in an up/left direction", it goes "okay, you go 1.0 up and 1.0 left, which is equivalent to 1.414 speed up/left." So, to go as fast as possible, you always want to be holding down three move keys at once. This also means that you always speedrun using keyboard, because joystick does yaw/pitch/roll and throttle controls, instead of "move up/down/left/right/forward/back."

The best Descent is FreeSpace.

flyboi posted: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 I think you mean Descent: Freespace

Descent is a good game. Descent 2 is a good game. Descent 3 is a good game. I never finished D:3. Kid me just couldn't get past the drat trains.

If you watch the YouTube rips just donate 3 cents to charity to balance out the money you made the uploader.

pisshead posted:Tbh I'm not sure this charity is all it's cracked up to be anyway. Descent really didn't age well from what I recall; it had the same "giant pointless labyrinth" level design as every other FPS of the time, except unlike them you also had to backtrack through the level after beating it to escape or else lose all your weapons. Or maybe I was just an idiot when I was younger, who knows.

I liked those labyrinth levels, as long as you didn't end up running round and round in circles looking for a key. Keys are one thing I don't miss from old shooters.
