noah caldwell-gervais’ postal video made me think there’s the seed of what could be a good game somewhere in postal 2. the open-world rural town could be a good setting for an immersive sim where you’re like, a teen delinquent committing petty crimes. dirtbag thief. obviously it would need to not be made by anyone connected to the postal series

It’s really cool that Marathon Aleph One now supports framerates over 30 fps. I played through Marathon Infinity last week and it’s a much better experience now. I’m glad to see the modding community is still working on projects. I found a couple YouTube channels focused on Marathon content. This person has complete playthroughs of several major total conversions, including Marathon Rubicon. https://youtube.com/channel/UC9pGYNNhNohwF-wuNitynrg This person has uploaded a huge trove of Vidmaster Challenge videos. There’s also videos of in-progress mods. https://youtube.com/c/MarathonVidmaster

tbh any open world game with ragdoll physics, a kick button, liquid physics, fire leading to burning people setting other people and things on fire, throwable scissors, a cat gun and, if you have mods, a nuclear bomb, will be entertaining unless you really gently caress it up

First Supplice demo level is pretty fun; aesthetically and in terms of the music, it reminds me a lot of BtSX. I thought enemies had bizarrely high health on normal, but it turns out it's just that the pistol replacement sucks rear end. The shotgun sounds and feels great. Also, I guess Marathon is a bit of an inspiration even though this runs on GZDoom: e; the secret room filled with 5-6 chaingunners with hellbarron HP can gently caress off, though.

Based just on the two levels in the Demo, everything is definitely Charon’s fault somehow

The Fallen Aces demo was fantastic but way too short. I wasn't expecting it to have stealth mechanics and immersive-sim-adjacent level design, either.

Supplice levels reminded me more of Dark Forces than Doom which is good probably. Chaingunners can suck my dick

Arthurian Legacy is cool but seems a little shallow. THere are a ton of "belt" items which i've never liked because the inventory selection is always clunky enough that I end up only using healing items out of combat. I'm only in to the third level but encounters have been 2-3 enemies max and they seem to insta-aggro when you're near, so you can't play too sneaky. Engage with ranged weapons until they're close and if they make it to you (the hatchets do a lot of damage) do a little berserk fist style backpedaling to finish them. It doesn't run great either (hovers around 50-80 fps which stinks when you're used to Doom/Quake at 144+) and with how it looks and plays it seems like they ought to have used gzdoom.

i tried out the arthurian legends game demo. not sure if it's just tonight getting to me or something but the game felt weirdly cramped a lot of the time and it sort of gave me a headache. maybe fiddling with options more might solve that? otherwise it seems pretty decent. i think the demo will give you a good idea on if you want to get the full game. i wasn't very good at finding secrets so i maybe missed out on the chance to mess with magic scrolls and the like if those were hidden about the two levels it gives you to bump around in. you start out with an unbreakable axe as your basic weapon, which is notable because as you go beyond that you get varying ranged options with ammo such as a crossbow or throwing axes or further melee options with durability so that they effectively count as having ammo to whatever degree. shields you pick up have durability and combat can involve either attacking at the same time as someone to parry the blow and nullify it or using something like aforementioned shields to block it with less durability damage done if you block right before a hit connects. overall it feels solid enough as a basic combat loop once you get into the feel of moving through your options if only so you don't sit on a bunch of ammo forever and never use it. if the demo is any clue you might not have to worry about running dry unless you refuse to ever use melee. overall it seems like a neat enough game. i might pick up the full version sooner or later after seeing about fiddling with some options and finding out if that helps. i can't really point out anything i consider outright bad about it and most of my complaints mostly come down to nitpicks like having a bunch of inventory options feeling a bit excessive and unneeded in most scenarios, which can ultimately boil down to being personal preferences i guess. it's aiming for a very particular aesthetic and is one of those cases where you either Get It or think it sucks and as i said the demo will give you an idea on that, so that was a cool move on the dev's part.

it could be better for sure but it is also exactly what i wanted, which is a weird medieval-themed fps with lots of melee combat and janky grainy 2.5d graphics. i was so desperate for something like this that i really did almost buy witchaven on gog but talked myself out of it at the last second
|
# ? Oct 5, 2021 04:22 |
|
to be clear i definitely don't think it's bad, just endearingly jank in some form or another i can't 100% put my finger on. also bumping the fov to 120 works wonders, i've found. anything that keeps someone from buying witchaven is a good thing.

I'll definitely try the demo and the FoV thing because on the videos it looked really narrow by default. The sound is great.

Supplice isn't doing much for me. The presentation is great and all (more games need Marathon style terminals), but it just doesn't play that well for me. The levels feel really overdetailed. Like I think the levels make it clear where you need to go for the most part, but trying to find secrets is painful. The secrets I did find I just randomly stumbled upon. They were not very rewarding, either. One of the secrets I found had an ambush for a pittance of rocket launcher ammo. I played on Hard and the amount of ammo overall was extremely tight, particularly the second level. Enemy design is okay I guess, but I think the shark Hell Knights and the Tandems need less health. I know Tandem is being addressed, but the shark guys get pretty obnoxious at times. They make barely any noise, too. Like enemies in most FPS games I've played have distinct calls, but they're so vague here that I don't always know what I'm dealing with until they tear my face off. Tandems are the worst because damage feedback in this game is poor and they tend to kill me before I realize they're shooting me. The first time I encountered one of those Brain Halos, it killed me in like half a second because the projectiles go right through you and tend to linger.
