According to the latest patreon post the MMOD version for Half-Life won't make release this month because Gunship Mark decided to recode the entire thing from scratch because apparently project management is just a skill that doesn't exist anywhere anymore. Ah well.

Hopefully it's not a huge undertaking because redoing work you've already done once can be a huge motivation drainer on any project.

Call of Juarez: Gunslinger is free on Steam right now. I'm enjoying it due to how arcadey it feels.

Gunslinger is the best western game since Sunset Riders. It plays like a light gun game without the light gun. It also has great music and some fun storytelling.

DRG is one of my favorite games because all the weapons feel pretty great and with the overclocks you can get some real variation even with the same weapon.

DRG is one of those games where you can tell the developers know what they're doing. Updates come regularly, they don't reach further than their grasp, and they know what to prioritize. I genuinely cannot think of a criticism for the game, and that's rare for me.

is it just me or does this year feel a bit less forbidding than last year did? it felt like 9/10ths of the winners and most of the runners up last year were combat puzzle giant slaughtermaps that demanded pounds of flesh, but 2021's choices are a bit less overwhelming in terms of scope and difficulty. (not that there aren't still some hyperscary slaughters in there, of course)

Oh, I thought FWH's next game, Evil West, was also an FPS but it's third person and seems kinda melee focused.

Auger;Zenith only runnerup? It received tooons of forum nominations. It feels as if DW is snubbing out the child of the competition (doomer board projects) :P

Also, I thought Timer Tripper would get it.

In any case it was a super tight year with many great wads. Heartland, Lullaby, Ashes: Afterglow, Fractured Worlds were locked in.

i started playing deep rock galactic the other day and i'm surprised at how nice the weapons feel to use. like the scout dwarf can unlock an m1 garand as an alternate primary (called m1000 something or other instead because ~space~) and that thing feels chunky as hell for popping creatures, and said scout also starts with a double-barrel sawn-off as a secondary which has a weighty bit of punch to it. it's nice to bump into games that seem to get something right when designing their weaponry because it really sticks out in one when guns feel 'off'.

I have 200 hours played so yeah, I recommend it big time :P.



Also, if you want to see another indie FPS with surprisingly good weapons (variety, sounds, feedback, feel), try Gunfire Reborn, the best fps/roguelite combo. We have a thread too here in SA.

The runner up awards are almost uniformly better than the actual winners they were paired with this cacowards. It has been an exceptionally strong year for doom.

one of the few games where the scoring system totally works AND the upgrade tree actually gives you useful and well-paced abilities.

It really is something special.

Croteam is teasing something for Serious Sam 4.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4xVZ0T0bog

Considerably less of a tease is DUSK: The Goodies, a free DLC to celebrate DUSK's third birthday that includes a horde of prototypes, development materials, unreleased music and the odd embarrassing photo.

After playing through not even the first level of Serious Sam 4 on Game Pass because it was that shockingly unfun, Im gonna need a lot from Croteam here

Dusk though, I could play more Dusk even if I didn't end up as high on it as most

Hot take alert: Dusk is just an uglier and less fun Painkiller. I almost refunded it, but I overshot the window by like five minutes cause I kept playing in the hopes that it would eventually come good. It didn't.

Possible expansion? I'm kinda eh on the idea. Sam 4 was decent enough most of the time, until the final map, then everything became too drat much to deal with. I finished the thing in co-op though. Considering the Sam 3 DLC wasn't that hot, I don't have a lot of hype.
