i'm afraid i'm not that surprised by the games i play these days, i'm prudent enough to not buy games at launch and wait for feedback and avoid games i might dislike. i usually know i will like a game well before i buy it. i wasn't always like that, but through hard work, i've reached this level of discipline.

Yeah, I expected the reboot to be just a bland and low-effort as other recent reboots, but was pleasantly surprised. If you can ignore the incongruous characterizations it's quite enjoyable. To shoot people in the head with arrows etc.

Schnedwob posted:it looks kinda cool, but what is the actual ~gameplay~ like? you know that lovely game for the sega CD, Night Trap? It's like that but not garbage and actually dread inducing and spooky. You go from camera to camera to observe these moving animatronics and make sure they don't get to your security room before you can shut the security gates. the security gates require power to operate, though, so you can't be a pussy bitch and leave them down all the time. also, there's this wolf animatronic that, if you don't keep looking at it, will charge you and do this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hrAdk9mH0E#t=103 Also what's really funny is that the guy who made this used to do nothing but make Christian bible animations. http://hopeanimation.com/news/tag/scott-cawthon/

FEAR: Perseus Mandate is ugly to look at and the story is phoned-in nonsense, but it doesn't touch FEAR 1's gunplay (like the other expansion and FEAR 2 do) and as a result it's still really fun. They also give you way more ammunition for the cool weapons (pistols, ASP rifle, penetrator) than FEAR 1 does.

The new Wolfenstein was surprisingly dope. Mark of the Ninja was one of the best stealth games I've played and I really wish there were more 2d stealth games in general, let alone ones as well-done as that one. I didn't think that Legend of Grimrock was really gonna grip me because people talked it up as old-school challenging, but it was piss easy compared to Etrian Odyssey (which was my introduction to that type of dungeon crawling) while still managing to be a really great game with really well-kept secrets. A lot of people shat all over Fable 2 for being worse than the original but honestly I liked it for its own merits. Fable 1 combat wasn't hard it all and 2 knew it so it just kind of focused on being a blast to mix up combat styles, which it mostly succeeded in. I say mostly because going full magic was boring as gently caress later on because they decided it should be the only fighting style which didn't scale up the damage on its basic attacks, but eh. I also appreciated that the areas were as big as they were, Fable 1 feels like a series of hallways but each zone in 2 felt big enough to explore without trying to be a failed open world thing. Just a shame that Fable 3 took the worst aspects of both games while ditching all the wasted-potential-but-good things in the first two games, the latter of which would have made a game that might have actually lived up to the hype from the first one.

clive barker;s undying, although it got the lovely fps tank-vs-tank syndrome on later levels. you know the thing where 90s era fps's just get soul destroying because youve got to stand there and shoot things gently caress knows how many times with a shotgun until they keel over for a whole level. except in undying it's the scythe of the celt thing

Especially those teleporting invisible things. Either way more shooters need the weapon and enemy design of CB:U. A lot of monsters in that game didn't gently caress around and didn't feel artificially difficult unlike so many other shooters. Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of The Earth if you can get beyond some of the clunkiness is one of the best FPSes ever made. I like to think the bugs and clunk are all part of immersing the user in the madness that is the mythos. CB:U and CoC both seem to fall into the games that are more about concept, art, and atmosphere than anything else which is what makes them rather special compared to say Halo. Same reason why Blood is the best build engine game. puberty worked me over fucked around with this message at 13:00 on Aug 14, 2014 |

 It's like Siberia 1 and 2, except it actually has an ending and brings the story to a close. No weird or obtuse puzzles either.

it's a shame that undying bombed because he had a load of sequels and prequels planned based around the guy's mysterious past with that otto keisinger guy the idea of a mansion built around a tower that was just there for as long as anyone could remember, and nobody knew where it came from, and it turned out to come from a lovecraftian dungeon dimension is legit cool

also going back in time to a monastery that burned down hundreds of years ago in mysterious circumstances, and it turns out that you did it. and you stole an artifact that their sole purpose was to protect, then used it to cause exactly what they were trying to prevent happening to happen, and you kind of start to figure this out as you go along but by then you can't stop it

I got Bionic Commando 2009 because I liked RearMed and I really liked it but then I found out people didn't for some reason. Then I got Dark Void and I thought it was decent but the ending came out of nowhere and went by way too fast but it was really fun being a jetpack man while everyone else was in a cover shooter. Then I found out people didn't like that either.

I think the newest Dota wannabe games Strife and Dawngate are both more fun than Dota 2 and League of Legends but I'm worried it's just because the people playing haven't had time to become as insufferable.

Marlow Briggs and the Mask of Death looks like a blatant God of War knockoff. And it is. But it's a solid knockoff that's missing like one or two features from the game and it's written like a B-movie on SyFy. And Steve Blum gets to voice a goofy character without sounding like Wolverine and he's pretty good at it.

I have that Merchant Marine game, and it seemed competent but at some point a mission refused to complete or something, so I quit playing it. It wasn't great or anything, but I really really like trading between planets/ports you get the idea.

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers on GBA is basically a Diablo clone without randomized levels and with different story paths for the different characters. The graphics are pretty bad but the gameplay is mindless fun. Characters play differently enough. Level up Gandalf's fire spell and it gets insane splash damage and owns x 3. Also loot, of course.

I like Drox Operative, it's like a diablo grindfest except it's in space. There's randomly generated sectors and planets, and a bunch of AI alien races play an 4x game against each other colonizing planets and building fleets and researching tech and poo poo. But you don't need to do any of that spergy stuff, instead you're an rear end in a top hat mercenary dicking everyone over, causing wars and mayhem, and using the loot to get a more badass spaceship. Pro tip: ally with the dragon men or the hate robot race and lead their glorious fleet to victory. I also like how humans in that game aren't the "baseline", they're loving ice cold playas.
