GunnerJ posted:It's also the first point where the game kinda breaks its "promise" about story in games, its the "don't give a gently caress" attitude where you only pay attention when NPCs force you to because they're sick of being ignored. Here we're stuck at the contrived plot device of the magic rocket-proof glass that they can make walls out of but not make armor out of. You just kinda sit there watching, not even able to test its durability. Yep. This here is my pet peeve about Doom. It promises to not hinder you in the glory of combat but then backs out and does the usual "behind the window" BS anyway. Worst offender by far is the Advanced Research Complex mission. At least Half-Life 2 allowed me to shoot my weapons and break some stuff while the exposition happened. double nine fucked around with this message at 19:27 on Aug 23, 2016 |

One of those demons was sitting its rear end on the abort button.

Apep727 posted:No, I think I prefer the "radiate supernatural heat" theory. I mean, what's more logical: that the guys who programmed the computers at this facility thought the "hey, we're putting this place on lock-down because demons" announcement took priority over the "hey, you managed to avert a core meltdown" announcement, or that demons generate special heat that can only be ventilated by blowing holes in them? Come on, man, it's common sense. I mean the bodies burn into nothingness upon death so ...

Klaus88 posted:Note that Olivia has probably the lowest action to gloating ratio for an FPS antagonist, by recent standards anyway. I donno, "you could not have saved them anyhow" pretty heavily implies impotence on doomguy's part. I don't think doomguy likes being told he can't/couldn't do something.

If Metro Last Light has taught me anything, it's that Russians swearing is cool. So I would very much like this opportunity to learn new (Russian) swears. сука

HenryEx posted:A lot of times, especially for games terminology or more recent technological stuff, the common parlance has accepted to just use the English term for it. Sometimes it's because a literal translation would sound stupid, overly long or clunky, or it's already used up by something else. I don't speak german very well, but wouldn't der imitator or der Nachmacher be acceptable substitutes?

Dinictus posted:I'm still a little leery about how VEGA's entire personality and capacity for reasoning is backed up into a futuristic USB stick, considering he needed this entire absolute-zero coolant facility for everything else. Could be that the VEGA program is self-learning and the USB stick simply contains the instructions/blueprints for procedural reconstruction of another VEGA. Or, you know. Technobabble.
