Minecraft is a fun game to just chill after a hard day's work, even my girlfriend played it for a decent while and she's not fussed about games one bit.

I can't think of a game that acknowledges the advantages of overall shorter and lighter submachine guns or pistols properly. In most games variables are damage, damage fall off, spread, scope or not, reload time and clip size and that's it, so you end up with assault rifles even in cramped spaces as the best choices. It would be cool if, for example, instead of what-you-see-is-what-you-shoot there was a reticule moving towards you center of vision but with some inertia determined by the weapon's weight and length. Or something like that. e: I guess CS GO's lower accuracy when moving a lot-mechanic is a good implementation of that idea without making it too complicated. lllllllllllllllllll fucked around with this message at 11:55 on Jul 24, 2019 |

I got hundreds of hours out of both these games, which is more than I can say for most. And for a while people would pay real money for Bill's Hat.

playing left 4 dead for hundreds of hours within a year is crazy, there are only five maps or something, how can you look at zombies for that long?

Left for dead was amazing. The sequel was less amazing and really did feel like it should have been content added on the original game. Releasing it one year after the original was just stupid. It basically destroyed the playerbase for the first game

Or something like that. PUBG had (and still has maybe? I dunno I havent played that poo poo in ages) a mechanic where your bullets would go where your actual gun model pointed instead of always hitting the reticle in the middle of your screen. So if you were trying to shoot out through a window, you'd sometimes hit the window sill because you stood too close and didn't have enough room. That poo poo would've been okay if it was implemented well, but in PUBG's case it was absolutely loving infuriating.

Left 4 Dead was piss, you were meant to be a shooting guns in that game but the dev team must have forgot and left the code in for nerf guns or some poo poo. I have never played a game where the shotguns and rifles had so little impact. Doom, the 94 original, had meatier sounding guns and kill animations. It was so bad. Why make a game about shooting zombies and then make the shooting so sub par???? I remember the sequel being marginally better but then i also remember it feeling like a map pack so  Shite games though.

Releasing it one year after the original was just stupid. It basically destroyed the playerbase for the first game They didn't connect it very well, it could have easily plugged into the base game. Instead we waited... A year? Two? For some level of integration. And the game never integrated custom maps effectively. If Valve ever makes a game again it would be nice to see L4D3 with full workshop support.

No games have shotguns as good as the one in Doom. A few have come close. But it's still the top dog. All of the doom guns were awesome, except the chaingun.

Killing Floor was the superior zombie co-op fps of its day, especially compared to Left 4 Dead. The shotguns in that game felt great, as did most of the guns.

lots of games have solid shotguns on release, someone on the dev team get it in their head that realism is key. So we get shotguns that instakill at 50m initially then theres an outcry until it gets nerfed to being a joke option.

Every Souls game I’ve played has been a complete chore. I keep buying them in the hopes that I ‘get’ it but I’m sat here on my 5th attempt of that first street part in Bloodborne and kind of wondering why I’m bothering.
