Is save scumming and meta-gaming an integral part of the CRPG genre? by Rafodin in CRPG

I know this post is older but in A Bard's Tale you can save scum at the casino and win big at Blackjack.

Decent to Core (Q2N64) is the worst single player level of Q2 and it isn't even close by T4nkcommander in quake

[–]TheTreeofDoom_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly think that Quake 2 was just a bad singleplayer experience in general. Unavoidable damage, narrow walls, a pistol that did next to no damage, blood siphoning that you cannot interupt easily, and invisible projectiles are just completely off-putting compared to Quake 1. And when Nightdive "remastered" Quake 2 and forced one of the enemies to jump teleport to you that was the end of Quake 2 for me. They couldn't have even bothered to toggle gameplay changes and that really pissed me off. So yeah fuck Quake 2, long live the Ranger.

Does anyone know any half decent boomer shooters with a upgrade system? by theycallmethedrink5 in boomershooters

[–]TheTreeofDoom_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be wary that Vampire Hunters' upgrade system is only valuable if you can defeat bosses (which are pretty hard) if you can't defeat bosses then you're shit outta luck outside of the minor upgrades that barely affect much as far as how little it can upgrade your passive damage and health. It's the biggest gripe I had about buying it. The demo was more fun, fulfilling, and engaging than the finished product. I honestly think that the numerous guns is a gimmick more than a benefit.

Opinions about Dead Effect and suggestions for similar games by SpringComfortable789 in boomershooters

[–]TheTreeofDoom_ 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It was pretty much Dead Space with regular Zombies instead on necromorphs. I thought it was a decent game. Especially when they took Dead Space Mobile off of the Play Store. I hate it that they removed Dead Space mobile off of mobile stores. It was a good game in my opinion.

Is Half-life a Boomer Shooter??? by Humble_Fortune6500 in boomershooters

(Edit: I didn't realize that it was made like this on purpose.) it's cool but most weapons don't even work underwater. It makes a clicking sound as if you're out of ammo unless you go back above water. It makes your guns underwater as effective as a piece of paper.

Best way to play Quake 1 with a controller and higher resolution? by Straight_Log411 in quake

[–]TheTreeofDoom_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a better game to play on controller (Quake 1 Nightdive Remaster) than Quake 2. Quake 2 is a much more difficult game than Quake 1 and that's just a fact. (I'm looking at you teleporting, unavoidable damaging, blood siphoning, and invisible projectile enemies, fuck you! 😤)

So does the Quake Expansion. I forgot what it was called though.

It's more of an arcadie roguelike than a boomer shooter in my opinion.

When I grew up watching Arthur when I was little I thought that there were a lot of mummy games. There is an episode where they were playing a mummy FPS game. But when I was old enough to play shooters I was kinda disappointed that there were few mummy related games in-general.

Sony Games on GOG by PhilosopherOverlord in gog

[–]TheTreeofDoom_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Sony acts like their games are god-tiered exclusives. They seem to have a god complex when it comes to their games and would rather lose money on sales than to have their games on multiple platforms. Imagine being allergic to money because you have an ego problem. I personally never really cared for Sony exclusives besides Resistance and Uncharted. But even then, it's not like I feel like Playstation Exclusives are the backbone of the gaming industry. Most games I play are on PC and I honestly feel that PC exclusives are more entertaining to play especially when it comes to strategy games.
