Jack Trades posted:Hello, my dear friend. Have you heard the good word of our lord and savior Metal: Hellsinger? Mordja posted:The closest games to Doom Eternal are probably Shadow Warrior 3 and Necromunda Hired Gun in that their both kinda just ripping off its gameplay loop. But the former is real short, especially for its price, and the latter is real janky. ScootsMcSkirt posted:ULTRAKILL Thanks for the suggestions folks! I've had my eye on Metal: Hellsinger for awhile now, but the other ones are new to me! I ended up keeping BPM: BULLETS PER MINUTE after the refund period as I could see there was something to it. It's pretty addicting now once you get in the groove with the rhythm mechanics. It's worth giving it a chance if anyone has been on the fence.

drat MH: Rise Sunbreak is so tight. It's been long enough since Iceborne that I forgot the rush you get going into a new Monster Hunter expansion, it's really cool how it recontextualizes all the existing content in addition to adding tons more. It's great having to pay some respect to early-game monsters again when they get faster and more aggressive movesets -- I was hooting and hollering when Great Izuchi jumped up to cling to a wall and then divebombed me and killed me

Bad Seafood posted:Wow, that's quite the downgrade. I've never played the original so I didn't have a point of reference, but I know from experience (Oddworld) that remastered graphics aren't always for the better. Yea, now that I think about it I can't recall any Remaster of a game that I cared about that wasn't deeply flawed in some way. Homeworld, Battlezone, HoMM3, etc. I guess RE2, but that's not a remaster so much as a remake. There's always some terrible fuckup that makes you want to use the original binaries instead.

Toys for Bob did a great job on remaking the original Spyro trilogy. It's the best way to play the first game in the series, the second is about as good as the original and the third was also good even though it was handed off to another studio. Besides that I can't really think of any that manage to live up to the originals, even the Crash remakes from TFB have some wonky platforming sections that don't handle as well as the PS1 source material. Trials of Mana was solid but has the same problem as Klonoa where everything looks kind of low-budget. The Spyro trilogy feels like it had as much funding as it needed for it to be great and was made by people passionate about the project, a lot of the other ones feel like the studios are just putting out feelers to see if anyone still cares about the franchise and handing the task off to people who are just doing it as a job.

Monaco I'd _highly_ recommend for being pick-up-and-play, mission-based with objectives, a storyline to progress through with harder missions, and totally hilarious pandemonium in multiplayer. Other titles I'd rattle off: Streets of Rate 4 Metal Slug 3 (or any of them) Spelunky 1/2 Door Kickers: Action Squad Borderlands games? (ugh)

sebmojo posted:Battlezone? What was wrong with that? It looked perfect at first, apart from a small detail here and there ("Wheren't there supposed to be enemy mortars here...?" etc), but the big one was me being very puzzled at why combat seemed much harder, I kept taking so much damage. Did I play the game 20 years ago on the lowest difficulty setting, what? Turns out they tweaked the combat AI to be more effective, so that in big fights the tanks spend more time shooting and less time milling about. To me, what I saw was that I couldn't stagger/stunlock enemy tanks in a 1v1 anymore, I could keep hammering at them with an AT-Stabber and they'd just look at me and return the favor. Kind of a big deal for a single player campaign where you do 90% of the work solo. Apparently there where tons of other small tweaks that the community who've been playing continually for the past few decades are annoyed about, but that's the one that put me off.

My friend wanted to try the Evil Dead game again last night because they just patched in a free new map based on Castle Kandar from Army of Darkness and that game might be fully dead already. Literally couldn't find another player in matchmaking which is fun because to play the 'vs. AI' mode you still have to have 4 or matchmake to fill in the group so my group of 3 couldn't play at all because either nobody seems to be playing it OR they hosed matchmaking with this update.

Not sure where you're located, but while looking up the patch notes I saw a lot of comments about west coast matchmaking in particular being completely broken after the patch.

East coast, but I saw a lot of the same across the board so it might just be matchmaking in general is hosed. Reddit seems to think it's because people are protesting Demon nerfs by quitting the game/going ON STRIKE which is hilarious.

During the last sale Xander77 gifted me Lethe part 1 to play and review and I have finally gotten around to finishing it. In Lethe the player character decides to look into his origins so he comes to a remote mining town where he believes he was born. When he arrives it appears there was some kind of accident or tragedy years before and starts to explore. Through a series of notes he finds he uncovers both his origins and what happened to the mining town. The game contains some basic puzzles which usually involve finding a replacement fuse or activating switches, some remotely (oh yeah you gain telekinesis a short way in). Nothing really more complicated than that. There are a few enemies and the only way around them is either to sneak or run. I found the enemies particularly frustrating as when running from them I would often get caught on the level geometry and coupled with the limited sprint they would often catch up with me killing me quickly. It also felt like the enemies would teleport nearer me in a couple of areas. I did enjoy the exploration and the locations and I thought the notes were well written. This is supposed to be part 1 of a series but this entry came out in 2016 and it doesn't seem like there has been any news of the next episode since then so that does make it a hard game to recommend.

Tiny Timbs posted:Red Odyssey was an absolute bitch. I don’t think I finished it before moving onto Battlezone 2. There's a workshop mod that ports the BZ1 and Red Odyssey campaigns to BZ2's engine with BZ2's mechanics and is the superior way to play BZ remastered imo. The AI changes they did to 1 Remastered were mostly based on BZ2's AI which made everything kinda grindy when you don't have BZ2's scale or economy.

But didn't BZ2 have weirdly scaling everlasting gobstoppers for an economy? I just wanted to play BZ1 with updated gfx that works on modern OS's! Why is that so hard! (Don't get me started on what happened to the Homeworld remaster, loving awful)

Sure, the original Homeworld was slightly worse for being remade in the HW2 engine, but they've now managed to upgrade both 1 and 2 to be physics based. It's the definitive way to play 2 at the very least and they include the classic versions as well at no extra charge.
