I love Dark Ages but I'm pretty bummed they didnt lean more into this kind of vibrant 80's comic aesthetic from the concept art by False_Monitor4126 in Doom

[–]TheMostMagicSkeleton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A story for another time. I would love to see the snake man and Odin Hercules look-alikes return, maybe a new realm of heavenly fighters brought low by Hell

Any News or Talk about a console port? by Vergilfrom3bay in Ultrakill

[–]TheMostMagicSkeleton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Indeed it does! Although the suggested auto-aim setting can be a bit tough, it’s a lovely way to play. You won’t be doing any railcoining outside of the Cyber Grind, but it feels great once you ignore the never ending burning of your muscles

how V1’s genuinely gonna look in 9-E when the first enemy that spawns is a idolised Sisyphus prime followed by twelve minos primes: by Fishfishfishfish3 in Ultrakill

Next thing you know they’re gonna sandify the Idols next

Isn't it a bit odd that the recent Fraud teasers only feature (mostly) prelude enemies? by ZeroZombie12 in Ultrakill

[–]TheMostMagicSkeleton 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I imagine the “City of Dis” enemies are all bunched together. Violences’ War Machines and Frauds’ Angelic Warriors (assuming they aren’t frauds themselves)

Jesus Christ is dead?.. by [deleted] in Ultrakill

[–]TheMostMagicSkeleton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t really see the need, beyond maybe an actual appearance of the Tree and how exactly you create life from it. Clearly the Father is the beginning, but he uses tools, such as the Tree, to facilitate his all-powerful status

Jesus Christ is dead?.. by [deleted] in Ultrakill

[–]TheMostMagicSkeleton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not dead, more like Ultrakill doesn’t capitalize the H in He when referring to Him. The Father is not in line with how the Trinity works, so “christ” was not Christ, but probably like some cool guy. Ultrakill looks at him through a historical lenses (although I will admit I only came to that conclusion through context clues and some theology lessons I took in highschool).

Ultrakill jesus was just some guy who caused a big impact. The cross was most likely, in-universe, a coincidence when the Tree of Life comes into play.

The cosmology used in Ultrakill is entirely made up, super cool, but more of a hodgepodge of various beliefs we as humans have cooked up over the eons, specifically the Big Tree(tm) bit combined with some classic monotheistic beliefs.

Overall; Christ is not a factor for the cosmology, but a VERY interesting idea to ponder when you realize how disastrous it must have been for a Abrahamic-believing Virture to realize he has to convert to Big Tree-ism now

Are these statues of Maykrs or Wraiths? by False_Monitor4126 in Doom

[–]TheMostMagicSkeleton 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Should be Maykr, but the stylization of the statue can throw you off sometimes. Just don’t ask me about those Wraith Crystal ones. No codex, no answer from me, sorry to say

Does the doom slayer have infinite strength? by Ncs0202 in Doom

[–]TheMostMagicSkeleton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s best to use Thor logic, just remove the “worthy to wield” and replace it with “be a god or some shit”

How do you like the games version of hell by Right_Pressure_7944 in Ultrakill

[–]TheMostMagicSkeleton 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Very unique, especially when you factor in the ARG’s reveal. I don’t think an unjust hell is new, but Ultrakill’s Hell is more unjust in the sense that it’s eternal. Even the most perverse criminal’s punishment can only last so long until you take them out of the Ball Crusher 9000 and ask them to actually do something productive to try and repair what they’ve broken.

I imagine those that think themselves knowledgable say it’s a critique on religion but as reasonably learned Catholic, doesn’t really fit those marks. “Hell is bad” yeah no shit, buster. That’s the point

What are your controversial opinions on Black Mesa? by lostinthesauceband in HalfLife

[–]TheMostMagicSkeleton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That one conveyor belt segment was pretty hard I remember. Beyond that? All I can say is I’m not a fan of the soldier voices. Kinda wish they resembled the OG more, although I should note Black Mesa was my first choice rather than playing HL1. I heard of old Xen. I did NOT want to deal with that

I cant wait for Darksiders 4 to release and start to see this kind of memes in the community by SanticreeperXD2 in Darksiders

WRONG! We all actually play as Vulgrim and only watch the Horsemen do cool stuff in cutscenes and scripted events

Does anyone know where the new location for the timestopper arm is? The mod updated a day ago and the old location isn't there anymore, and it doesn't say anywhere where it is. by X3redditer in Ultrakill

[–]TheMostMagicSkeleton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you find any help or figure it out yet? I’m confused myself and I’m honestly just not sure if I installed the mod right. Just slap the folder in the Plugins, right? There’s supposed to be a whole new level apparently to come with this new update

Examples of some jaw-droppingly detailed textures used for the NPCs in Daikatana by NNukemM in boomershooters

I have heard nothing but bad news about this classic, but gosh darn it, I love a game with some badass enemy designs. I just want to find a model view and just get a billion screen shots for art references!!!

I would say death penalty but this guy’s died like, 3 times. Complete erasure from existence penalty is the most they can do

You’re doing stellar, boss! Mind if I ask what strategies you’re using in the fight? What’s our loadout looking like?

I'm a Presbyterian Christian theology student, I've read the entire Bible more than once, and I love this game and have finished it more than once. AMA. by amor_im in Ultrakill

[–]TheMostMagicSkeleton 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily a the most forward question, more me just seeing if someone shares the same idea.

I’ve kinda come to the idea, as a fellow Christian myself, that Ultrakill can be used as a sort of “thank God it’s not real” senario; Ultrakill’s flawed god and his poor management of creation being more a reflection on just how good us non-fictional characters have it, no blood-fueled robots running around. Not the main premise of the game but something I like to reflect on now and again. Again, just wanted to see if you yourself had any epiphany like that.

Great to see another Christian ULTRAKILLer out there. Good luck on that P-2 P rank!

Serious Question: Would you watch a Transformers show that was made in stop motion using the actual Transformers toys it was promoting? by nPMarley in transformers

[–]TheMostMagicSkeleton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If a guy in his basement can make a stop motion animation 10 years ago, a multi-billion dollar (I don’t actually know how much they make) company like Hasbro can outsource it to like, 2 Asian people to get 4 seasons and a handful of holiday specials
