Yeah, you can hide things your Steam library. You CAN have things removed from your account completely if you feel strongly enough, but you'll have to go through at least one "You're ABSOLUTELY sure about this, right?" reply from Steam Support. Also, Rise of the Triad 2013 is three bucks today as the Steam daily deal, and the OST will be released any minute now.

Chaser was kind of hilarious if only because every single fucker in that game backstabs you. Every single one. I can't remember any legit dudes. Also yeah I played it years ago and had some decent memories but replaying it made me remember all the flaws because it's just full of terrible corridor levels and bland rooms with unfulfilling combat. The few positive things I could say is that the levels go around a fair amount of locations and the Mars levels were alright for their Total Recall style.

DoombatINC posted:I love Chaser but, understandably, not everyone shares my feelings for it. It's a living museum of FPS cliches from the late 90s and early 00s, the shooting is solid and some of the set piece levels are genuinely inspired. That said, the game is unnecessarily long, it's riddled with glitches and there's several levels you'll want to outright skip. I bought and played Chaser in the days of yore when one went to a store, bought a game, and brought it home to install multiple CD-ROMs and play, eventually. I knew nothing of these 'reviews' that supposed told you if a game was good or bad. Chaser made me regret every second spent going to and from the store, as well as every cent I spent on it. Chaser is a genuinely, truly, actually, awful game made by a bunch of people who didn't give a gently caress about ANYTHING, least of all producing something someone would want to play. I'm surprised it even still runs, as when I bought it, I had to patch the INSTALLER BEFORE IT WOULD INSTALL. I really should have quite while I was still a decent way behind.

I've never heard of Chaser, and am quite content to keep it that way from the sounds of things. I bought Gunman Chronicles. I'm probably going to find some point to actually play it soon-ish. Depends on how interesting SGDQ is at any given moment, I guess. Also used funds from excess Steam Trading Cards on Eradicator, because $1, eh, why not? Oh, and periodically trying out Terminus's Nocturne in Yellow work-in-progress thing. It's not too bad for the early state it's in. Damned hard, though. Should note, if anyone else wants to try it, you can't yet pick up the various keys; I expect most here know how the "Give" console command works, regardless, but it's something to note.

I can't say as I was a huge fan of Terraniux or ISV-Kran Deck 2/3, either. Got lost way too easily in those maps, struggling to find the nook I had to duck into to actually make any progress. Sunspire was also annoying, dark and maze-like, although I still kinda like it somehow.

Chaser had amazing glass breaking effects for the time. Unfortunately shooting up windows was the most fun part of the game, followed by looking for ways to fall out of the map.

david_a posted:Are you talking about Chizra Nali Water God? Because you better not be talking about Chizra Nali Water God You're drat right I'm talking about Chizra Nali Water God, hey game designers everywhere if you're going to put large swimming sections in a game then for fucks sake don't making your swimming movement speed like half as fast as your regular movement speed, especially in a fast paced shooter, I don't care about 'realism' in my interplanetary shoot aliens game where I can fire an energy rifle then shoot its projectile with another shot to cause a huge explosion. To this day it feels like the only games that ever realized that were the PS1 Spyro games (there they also had no possibility of drowning, which another thing designers should take on). Apart from that there's also these annoying mosquito enemies that are really tiny and hard to shoot and there's lots of 'em, and the layout involves lots of dull, samey looking rooms without a clear path forward that constantly remind me I'm in a game from the late nineties. Come on Unreal, you had me hooked in pretty well with the Scaarj, which are some of the most interesting things I've fought in an FPS, you better pick up the pace in the Dark Arena.

It's a challenging FPS where you need to shoot targets and monsters and get to the end of the level in quickest time possible. Very fun and has a fair difficulty curve, I also really like the very "non-FPS" visuals and soundtrack. It's a good game.

closeted republican posted:Chizra sucks when you first play though it, but it becomes one of your favorites in a replay. Trivial issues like "fun" or "gameplay" () aside, that level gets a free pass from me forever because when I played it back in '98 on my Voodoo2 I thought it was the most beautiful level ever created (I plead the 5th on my thoughts of replaying it for the first time in 13 years a few months ago). The mysterious jungle temple theme is still the coolest one in the game and always reminds me of Indiana Jones & Tintin. The only other theme I liked nearly as much was the floating islands. Either one is much better than slogging through the half-dozen gargantuan spaceships in the game.

Chizra does pretty much have the best music in the game, gonna agree with that. I recall kinda liking the level as well, but it's been a while.

Did Chasm The Rift ever get noticed for its dismemberment system back in the day? I've been playing it a bit and not only is it visual pretty awesome when an enemy pops after a shotgun blast, but it has gameplay implications as well. For example you can aim your shot to take off a soldiers weapon arm, essentially removing them as a threat while you shoot at other guys. I mean, I know tech moved faster back then but coming out only a year after Quake I feel it did some interesting stuff there.

Man that makes me wish I had a computer good enough to run Split/Second that game is one of my most favorite Racing games of all time(at least of the sort where you drive somewhat realistic cars and not other weirder vehicles) Actually come to think about it, Split/Second's main gimmick would actually work pretty well in a FPS context as well

If I remember correctly, pretty much every enemy supported the dismemberment system except for (possibly) a few dog-like enemies and/or the late-game "alien" opponents. I can't remember if you could take legs off, but you could definitely blast off both arms and (fatally) their head.

Lovely Planet is a game that made me not want to play it because I hit the limit of my reaction time, spatial awareness, and gently caress APPLES On the other hand yes Gunman Chronicles is one of the best FPS I ever played, if only for how brazenly inventive the weapon systems were. I loved how if you had played Half Life before, if you saved a scientist he'd thank you for helping him unleash his little assholes on you. What a perfect way to tell you just how different things were gonna be. Also the intro section where you nearly get sucked out into space was cool too.
