It's weird, cause even though it has it's own unique gameplay style it still feels like it's a bootleg of something else that doesn't exist. The music feels like it was taken from a royalty free website and what used to really creep me out was just how fake everything feels, especially in FE/SE/3 - like a video game drawn in a Facebook boomer comic lol.
That was the point, they were trying to troll you. They even put a dead Omen in the second loop in the same spot you killed an Omen in the first loop to fuck with you.
Yeah, and it was stupid, just highlighted how dogshit the game was for me.
Successful=/=Good though
It's the HL of N64; technically impressive tech demo.
Yes! I haven't been able to articulate that feeling in years, but you've done it perfectly in one sentence. It's so unique and generic game at the same time, it's even uncanny.
No, but I can see it.
No. I gave you a direct answer. I don't know what answer you want or are expecting.
Serious Sam not so much, Killzone, specifically Killzone 2 looks exactly like some videogame that some fat retard would play in some crime drama show though.
Funny you should say that. An old PS3 game called Dust 514 was featured for a few seconds in John Wick 1 when Wick goes to kill Iosev Tarasov.
The only time any character has mentioned sex was in Damnation where I think Ada mentions fucking Leon in a hotel or something.
Serious Sam basically feels like one rung above the old Flash games people used to make where they'd just put whatever sprites they happened to have on their computer into a big square room and call it "johnny gun-for-a-dick's stick massacre" or whatever. The creators wanted to make something good, but they don't understand enough about game design to cross the line from "kind of fun for a bit" to "game you wake up early to play because you don't want to wait until you get home that evening".
Then you have Resident Evil games, which give the illusion of open map but everything is locked behind Mr. X, Puzzles, and tons of backtracking.
Early Resident Evil games would be called a Souls-Like if it were released today. With typewriters/safe rooms acting as central bonfires you return to. Once an area is cleared you travel to the next.
The creators were a tiny group of Croatians working on a shoestring budget who were caught completely of guard by their success.
My scorching hot take is that it got overhyped in hopes of proving the Nintendo 64 wasn’t totally dead. What the fuck else did Nintendo release in 1998 that wasn’t from Rare? Yoshi’s Story, which was an abomination. It was a very low point for the N64. PlayStation was thoroughly trouncing the Nintendo 64 in quantity and quality. I think Ocarina of Time was a good game but it was an oasis in a big desert.
The N64 had very few games compared to every other mainstream console. The games averaged toward higher quality, but there were precious few of them. I'm not sure why, but Nintendo just didn't allow much to make it into the N64.
God, don't remind me of that game's tragedy. Dust 514 could have been so much more if CCP made it either cross-platform compatible or made it PC-only.
