the last few hours are insanely boring as well, they just copy/paste the same mission 3 times. it's a terrible game

It's just following in the footsteps of Doom 3 where the middle third just recycles areas over and over.

I remembered enjoying Doom 3 back in the day, turns out it was the Xbox version which cut the fat from the campaign and was actually decently paced. Also I think it had the original Doom 1 and 2 with split screen unlockable as well, it was the steelcase version.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

The Strogg are cool as hell.

Quake 2 and Quake 4 do not do them any favors.

Let's see what the fan wiki has to say about them:

Strogg Crates were spotted during the eerie events of Quake, although the connection has never been explained before quake champions according to his lore,it is it is wrong to think that the first stroggs contact with mankind was in 2065 this is wrong, it was not known how it happened much earlier at some point stroggs began to cooperate with the main antagonist of first quake doctor gilman in his slipgate experiences and provide him with their technologies for gilman's slipgates so that they became much stronger to enter to dreamlands,maybe gilman cybernized clones of visor prime for stroggs for new members of they army.

God I love wikis

At this point, his classic ROTT videos are holiday viewing for me; I got the original shareware episode one year in a big shareware pack, so I have a ton of Christmas memories of playing that, Catacomb Abyss, Ken's Labyrinth, and a bunch of others. :unsmith:

You get to see glimpses in the original SIGIL's documentary. There's an infamous scene where Romero brings his dev PC on a Meditteranean cruise with his wife:

My Christmas game is, oddly enough, Resident Evil 4. I think it was about Christmas time when I first played the awful Ubisoft PC port and have been doing mostly yearly re-runs at that time of the year ever since.

I think I'm finally going to 100% it this year. I'm one achievement away (pro campaign completion).

Weird that there's no achievement in the system for getting the handcannon, because that's a much harder thing than going through the campaign.

Aiming with gyro controls because of the Steam deck (or using a gyro-friendly controller via steam and a custom config) is :kiss:

It's genuinely amazing how much better the slingshot and bow in the 3DS Ocarina of Time remaster felt for exactly this reason and I'm glad more games are apparently supporting that nowadays.

It was especially a huge improvement there since aiming was pretty tough on N64. I could never shoot all the Big Poes before.
