Figure out how to do this with Doom or console exclusives and you might have a money-making idea here.

The Bureau: XCOM Declassified is technically a second person game, in the sense that it provides a compelling explanation as to why there's a floating camera capable of issuing commands to the protagonist and his squad.

Reminds me of the Clive Barker's Jericho game. The reason you can hop from squadmate to squadmate to control them is that you're legit playing as a disembodied body-hopping ghost.

I'm actually kinda impressed by the quality of the graphics, just not the actual content of the graphics. Is there a good Doom mod in a similar artistic style?

If you mean generally cartoony, there's Shadow of/Rise of the Wool ball, which are tributes to Wolf3d and Rise of the Triad respectively. They're very well made.   There's also something called Memoirs of Magic, which only has a demo out that I haven't tried. It looks like it plays very differently from Doom, however. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0viON73KtE

Teach them to insert pop-culture references into every game, or replace things just for the sake of changing something. (i.e. think like an uncreative human modder) Then wonder why they're producing weird stupid poo poo like "fat werewolves with rainbow mohawks playing harmonicas at a half-melted plastic firetruck" but yeah, it would be difficult to teach a robot how to do intentional surrealism because first they'd need to understand what reality looks like. silentsnack fucked around with this message at 14:04 on Mar 28, 2018 |

Tasteful Dickpic posted:I think it's that the protagonist is possessed by an alien with psychic powers . To expand on this, throughout the game an alien is puppeteering the “main” character, although it is sort of kind of not doing it on purpose. The “camera” is actually the alien’s eyes both when you’re controlling directly from a third person perspective and when you temporarily detach to give orders. For the last level the main character manages to get rid of his hanger-on and goes a bit crazy from being locked in his own mind for weeks/months. The 3 other supporting characters in the game then volunteer to become a willing host for the alien to beat the evil aliens and become the player character for the final level.

Stuff like the box art images or the magazine covers seem like they're meant to just be goofy, stupid, or referential.

I’d say a lot of horror modding comes from modders making things that aren’t quote what they should be. Deadeyed barbie dolls, for instance. I’m addressing this as an infinite typewriters type scenario, but with different possible combination of mod subjects and execution

Weird town populated entirely by cartoon characters, internet references and author self insert character was the entire premise of CWC's comic. Aesthetically it reminds me a lot of Cool World with its choice in color pallet the Doom engine's handling of perspective. It makes me want to vomit.

Hey, does anyone remember Creation Club? I had forgotten about up until now, when I saw a related video for it on YouTube. I also saw the one really great mod I would play Creation Club Coinz for (provided I couldn't find it somewhere else for free).

I got reminded of the Creation Club existance when someone posted on 4chan that their favourite "sexy" mods got taken down from the Nexus by the author. The author did it cause Bethesda asked him to "purge" his portfolio before agreeing to host his non-sexy mod on the CC. But it's a 4chan rumour so yeah.
