Doom 2016's main issue in my opinion is that there is not much enemies on every level. After shredding a Baron, two Knights and five Imps you can consider a room to be cleared unlike the OG games, where even after that you might find out that there was another monster closet that just opened in that very room.

that's cus they took a more Painkiller approach and a visual style like HALO just like previous games, because every sci-fi weapon nowadays looks the same since HALO came out
like i said they played it too safe, also because i assume they might have tried to get a T for Teen instead of the M for Mature we all expected by making enemies cartoonier and the weapons less like actual weapons.
honestly idk why they went that way when the idea of blasting demons with common-ass weapons was pretty cool
i legit don't know why they decided to make every weapon the same MacStore looking ass thing since wolfenstein.
i get it, "future" and they didn't wanna feel like COD but tbh the only cool looking weapon i've seen is the Rocket Launcher from ETERNAL and i swear Duke Rocket Launcher is still more iconic than that

In my opinion they also removed the option to play slower, in the OG games you could go behind corners and peek from there and all that right. But the new games make you run n gun constantly lest you run out of ammo and die. Propably because most of the ammo is from glory kills.
yes i am not that good at fast-paced shooters come at me

A lot of the work on video games ends up wasted. Yeah sure it took 6 hours of labor to build this character model and rig it but then the game just doesn't end up using it. Does that add to the SNLT of the game? Sure the waste is "part of the process" but does it have to be? There are other studios that are making games that don't fuck around changing everything and making big chunks of the material useless.

 No.25301

The bigger issue is management not the production team itself
In real life most of the shit that goes into these major titles a lot of shit ends up wasted because the designers behind these titles have to constantly shuffle between what the best ideas for their games are and likewise everyone else has to keep developing shit that’s never used meaning by the time a finished product is developed years have ended up passing

I usually try games I see game devs on social media are talking about. They're pretty good at finding the gems since making games is their field of study.

Well they added a new world since I beat it, but at this point it's more grind than I have time for. It's great fun, and a cut above what is expected of an indie open source game.

I'm gonna count Entropy Zero 2 as a full game and not only a mod. Was breddy gud and in terms of gunplay alone better than hl2 imo. Some call the MC a blabbermouth but it's a refreshing change in comparison to the usually silent protagonist valve games.

Pre-RA2 C&C games are pretty jank gameplay-wise, can't blame you. Tiberian Sun not having attack-move made it a pain in the ass for me, but I feel like the cutscenes and art style made it up for me.

I watched all cutscenes on youtube, it is what made me give the game a try, in both C&C1 and 2 I played Nod because they are more interesting faction, but the gameplay is just not fun.

Next month I'll be running a text-based, turn-based game set in the world of 1945. You can find the rules and who has signed up as what here: http://eregime.org/index.php?showtopic=20098

>ach turn represents a month gone by in-game. The game itself can last indefinitely, so long as players want it to continue and the world isn't destroyed by nuclear warfare. Each turn lasts for at least six days IRL, with the next turn normally posted on the seventh. However, a turn can be delayed up to four additional days if either the leaders of the United States or the Soviet Union requests it. All turn ETAs are located in the turn threads.

>
The game is played through carrying out actions (aka turn orders.) These can be whatever the player wants, although actions that are unrealistic or not possible will be pointed out to the player by the GM. The GM assigns the chance of success for your actions and their possible results, and will run the chances (on a scale of 1-100 with 100 being the most successful and 1 a total failure) through a random number generator to come up with said result. You can ask the GM what the probable chances of success are beforehand.

I dunno if I have time, but maybe you should just have the important characters played by committee anyways. Not like the president really makes decisions unilaterally anyways.

I dunno how exactly the game can really work anyways if you're trying to be true to historical fact. I'm not big on HOI but it seems like Germany is always doomed to fail unless important countries suddenly go in a left turn direction. Are countries allowed to change their historical allegiances? If not, I don't see how America and Britain can't just bomb USSR to the ground immediately.

 No.25154

Ideally there would be tons of players, including a bunch for the United States.

>Are countries allowed to change their historical allegiances?
If it's plausible, yes. Like the Truman player doesn't have to do the exact same things Truman did in real life, but he can't suddenly decide Marxism is glorious.

If the Truman and Churchill players want to launch something like Operation Unthinkable, they could conceivably try (although it would probably be foolish, in part given the considerable degree of pro-Soviet sentiment which still existed among the American and British populations in 1945.)

I wish there were more organized crime/underworld setting RPGs. My favorite parts of Fallout 2 were doing quests for gangs in Den and New Reno, Shadowrun kind of had that vibe also, Vampire: The Masquarade, and…, well thats it, nothing else comes to mid. There are other games where you get at most a single questline like that, like in Elder Scrolls or Pillars of Eternity.
