Like the best one I can come up with is merely "ok" unless we allow games where you play as a boat/move the boat as core gameplay. It's not an action game, but play return of the Obra Dinn.

Dr. VooDoo posted:The Borealis disappeared in some insane Aperture portal experiment right? At that point you could just have insane Tardis like features where the inside of the boat is bigger than the outside and random rooms of the boat can lead to entire pocket dimensions or send you to random points in time and space. Step through a cabin door and suddenly you’re back in Black Mesa at the height of the portal storms or whatever Or it could shrink and materialize entirely within an elementary school principal's kitchen

Going by Civvie's review, horror-themed action game all the way. It's also really bad.

What? Is that what the Klobb got renamed from? EDIT: Thanks Internet, that thing that I'm already using to post here: https://goldeneye.fandom.com/wiki/Klobb quote:The weapon was renamed the Spyder after the weapons switched to fictional names but had to be changed again for legal reasons, as "Spyder" is the trademarked name of a type of paintball gun. The name Klobb was chosen to honor Ken Lobb for his help during the development of the game. The game's manual was printed before this name change took place and the wrong name "Spyder" was used in the manual. Ken Lobb is known as a boisterous, opinionated man, and many believe that the gun's inaccuracy and ineffectiveness could be part of the reason he got the honor of having the gun named after him. Here is an interview with Ken Lobb from Nintendo Everything discussing the renaming of the weapon: So yeah, the Phantom is a gun that only appears on Frigate and literally nowhere else in the goddamn game, and I really loved it. EDIT: I do appreciate and respect it's rarity, though. It adds to the game. Rupert Buttermilk fucked around with this message at 16:55 on Jan 17, 2019 |

The Conduit 2 has a lot of gameplay on an oil rig. it also has one of the most insane endings which does make a little sense since the big bad was the second president of the united states https://youtu.be/pUVWS7eloEc we've come to help. for a game , not considering the genre, one zero escape game takes place on a replica of the titantic.

What's your controversial yet positive classic FPS opinion? I really like the Xen chapters in Half-Life. vv They were a nice change of pace, did my favorite thing sci-fi does (get Weird and Cosmic in the final act), and I thought Valve did the best they could given the circumstances, technology, and time constraints.

I liked Xen too. Wasn't as solid as the rest, but it was interesting and not too rough once you get the movement and long jumping down. I still like Redneck Rampage, warts and all.

Doom 2 has better level design than Doom 1. A lot of it is just the developers becoming more comfortable with mapping, so Ultimate Doom is even better.

I'll always go to bat for the Klobb when you're playing License to Kill; the spread was just so random, the shooter didn't need to loving aim, and you're dead. Perfect gun for that mode, right alongside the RC-P90 Also, I loving love the sound of the Klobb.

I love Xen and I love jumping segments. I really wish the long jump module got more use in the HL series, in its mods, or even in other games. Hitting ctrl just before spacebar is a fun way to activate it and works as a pretty simple skill check, same with crouching in midair after jumping to get that little extra bit of height to climb onto objects.

My personal shame is that I’ve never beaten Thy Flesh Consumed. By the time I got Ultimate Doom I had already played Doom 2 so many times that going back and replaying Doom 1 maps without all the great D2 monsters just never feels right.

IMO the main reason people say they dislike the Doom 2 level design so much, is that the vast majority of user levels out there are built for Doom 2 using all the Doom 2 tricks and extra features. This makes it so that people will more readily compare the levels to the stock ones, while the relative paucity of levels that only use Doom 1 stuff makes it easier to forget the less important Doom 1 levels and just think E1 and the various standouts from the other episodes.

Yeah I remember being really disappointed with the full version of Doom back in the day. Doom 2 was always way more fun. I've always considered E4 as an extension of Doom 2 I'm a way, it doesn't feel much like Doom 1 at all.

Romero’s maps look nicer and have more modern flow. Peterson’s are good too though. I’d love to see a 2019 sandy peterson map.

Sandy's levels could get overly-stingy with ammo (with added bonus of high enemy counts), and get you into that "Okay where am I supposed to go now?" problem. He does have some that are really memorable in ways that only his maps could be, though.
