Did I miss them showing off Gloomwood and stuff? Because they're just watching along with the Squeenix presentation.

The PC show is later I guess. I thought it was in the early afternoon so they've just been watching all the shows.

Gearbox had an e3 thing yesterday, I did "ctrl+F Duke" on the article, no results. That doesn't sound right.

On a twitch stream I saw "Half-Life 3 confirmed" scroll on the side chat, somebody knows something...

Gloomwood looks great, you can see he really got the original Thief spirit. The combination of lo-fi visuals with rich aural sounds is :chefkiss:

Looks like my dream game with the sole exception of the light gem being a thumb ring. Would rather just have something unobtrusive on the hud, thumb ring just looks odd.

I guess New Blood hid a bunch of unannounced games in their trailer. I thought they were just using random games in black in white inbetween because one looks like Fallout.

e3m9 blew my mind when I first played it, I had assumed the emulator had glitched. e3m2 I only recall as "that cheesy hand map with too many cacos".

Going back to some of those other hot takes; Heretic only seemed cool during the demo, the full game quickly showed sadomasochistic traps/murderholes and the weapon progression quickly turned into 'huh?'. It's a better game in that if I had to be locked in a room with nothing but Doom1, 2, or Heretic for 12 weeks for another lockdown I'd probably get more out of it since it's literally a later title with harder levels and more doodads, but Heretic's flow was pretty awkward and the community rallied around only one of those games.

I liked Project Warlock too. It wasn't at Dusk or Amid Evil level but was fun enough to get my money's worth. I think that, for the first time in years, I'll put some money on the kickstarter for it.

Project Warlock 2 looking good, but I wish they would leave the 'super retro' look, and advance to have more than 24 colors on screen at the same time.

You know. Leather.
Gloomwood and a hypothetical Teleglitch 2 would be day one purchases for me.

Most impressive of the Gloomwood gameplay video is how they nailed the soundscape of the original Thief games.

A decent chunk of ep2 is just e1 rejects and jazzed up test maps and it really shows. It also has what is probably the original crate maze and possibly even sewer level.
Ep3 picks up except for the disappointing end.

i am so pumped for doom eternal, but i was thinking the other day about procedural games and how none of them are any good

and then it hit me: the best procedural game of all time is teleglitch, and it isn't really even close

and that game, due to how it did its levels and arenas, could be made 3d in a way that is pretty reasonable (think strafe but not bad)

someone plz make this
which one of you is oshry and thank you for coming to my ted talk

Any news of the 3d realm games? Graven, Wrath, whatever more they had?

Graven recently entered early access but it's a real early access unlike of a lot of its contemporaries, where they basically had the gameplay nailed down and it was just a matter of making more levels. Its first patch, for example, really sounds like it shook things up. No clue about Wrath tho.

a miserable failure as a person

an incredible success as a magical murder spider

Wrath's had its last EA update, and its release window was supposed to be summer...

...but everyone on the discord thinks October/end of year is more likely now :shrug:

I think lots of Boomer Shooter devs are waiting until Realms Deep in August to announce stuff.

On an unrelated note here's something I've been pecking away at. A bit of a Hypnospace spinoff based on a 'design document' 15 year old nu-metal fan Zane Lofton made back in the day.
