Narcissus1916 posted:Didn't someone say that a lot of people who play with inverted stick controls (like me) did so because the first FPS we ever threw time into was Goldeneye? Or was it Halo? I don't think Halo inverted by default, since I remember having to change it whenever I played multiplayer at someone's house. I think inverted users may have also played a lot of flight based games and/or joystick controlled games before going into FPS. Plus back then things weren't quite as standardized, so inverted seems intuitive by the logic of looking up in real life requiring pulling your head back. If you look at the camera controls of early third person 3d games, there's a similar split in logic, of whether you're moving the camera or moving where you're looking.

If you’re having trouble following the looking-around directions in the tutorial, Halo will invert the view controls for you and let you try that.

More recent games are cleverer, they just prompt you to “look up” and whichever way you push the stick is assigned to up.

Still playing Amid Evil. The Forges really was a repeat of Episode 3: precision platforming while fighting enemies means you can't avoid projectiles easily, annoying floating monsters, that sorta thing. At least it's cool to look at with all its traps and contraptions. Oh! And I did quite like the boss fight. Only a level into Arcane Expanse and it's definitely a return to form, and absolutely stunning to boot.

Cephalectomy posted:For the weapons in amid evil being kind of abstract they still manage to feel good to use in the way a lot of hexe and heretic wraps were I think a lot of it comes down to the way they gently caress up enemies. Sword dismembers them, mace nails them to walls, trident makes them explode. And of course the claw is a rocket launcher. The staff and the aeternum feel lacking to me, and I'm pegging that on the lack of sheer visceral splatter.

I grabbed the Dusk and Amid Evil combo on the steam summer sale. I went from being very anti-dusk due to its art style to really looking forward to running, shooting, and backflipping my way through the game. I blame you all for this.

So I bought Dusk because everyone was raving about it, then I thought "I haven't played Quake and Doom in many many years", then I thought "I never looked into the mod scenes for these games", then I thought "And what else is there anyway", and, well... ... I fell into a hole. I don't need help though, it's a fine hole to be in. Can't get Dark Forces 1 to run though GhostDog fucked around with this message at 20:59 on Jun 28, 2019 |

Doom incarnate is one of those mods that has a learning curve. Have you experienced the glorious AA-12 expendables scene loop that is the fully upgraded grimhammer?

i think dusk is the better game overall but amid evil is wicked (and has what i think are the ideal retro graphics). i need a theme for my game these assholes are making me learn unity. wanted to do a kind of witchfinder deal but remembered witchfire is a thing.

I need validation. Who else doesn't like using Covenant weaponry in Halo campaigns? They just aren't half as satisfying to use as the chunky marine weaponry. The Brute shot whips rear end though. Every time I see gameplay for any of the Halo campaigns whoever is playing just immediately drops whatever gun they have for plasma weaponry and it's just hhhhhrrrng There's a badass combat shotgun right there you twerp!

The covenant guns in Halo 1 are all aces sorry. The Halo 2 plasma guns got nerfed to poo poo for the sake of dual wielding and are no longer good, except for the charged plasma pistol shot. This is only sort of fixed in Halo 3. The brute guns are all chunky and fun though.

Any fun weapon mods out there for high enemy count WADs? When I'm bored and listening to podcasts, I'll usually just flip on something like Hell Revealed 2, type in IDDQD, and go hog wild, but I'm kind of tired of the same weapons. Every time I try a weapon mod it's usually got particle effects that my Ryzen 7 and 2080 choke on, or obnoxious screen shake, or changes the game graphically in some way that looks bad.
