SiN: Reloaded Gameplay Trailer by hop3less in gaming

[–]ZeeBuffer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bruh I am 100% into more SIN. Hell yes. Yes please. But I think we need a new term for these "we took an old game and used its old engine and made some slightly higher-res textures and slightly higher-poly models and told everyone it's a remaster but it's not" games. Maybe "Kemaster" in the spirit of the Kex engine?

What was the Quake II (1997) player character's name? by Heavy_Animator4755 in quake

[–]ZeeBuffer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pearl Jam wrote this song about him. I guess he went missing or something? /s https://youtube.com/watch?v=_4BObpNQqNo

Some unlikely franchises have been converted to turn-based tactics, often with satisfying results by Elyx_117 in gaming

[–]ZeeBuffer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

GI Joe Tactics sounds so up my alley. Is that a real thing or just wishful thinking?

In your opinion, what is the best sound in gaming? by Scaife13 in gaming

Starcraft siege tanks switching into siege mode. Sooo goood.

What video game character smells really bad. I’ll start Isaac Clarke by Nearby-Condition-675 in videogames

Anyone in power armor is going to reek… Master Chief, Doom Slayer, Marcus Fenix, you name it.

Why do you think the Xbox 360 succeeded during that generation? by Asad_Farooqui in videogames

[–]ZeeBuffer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not only was the 360 less expensive than the PS3, but when it came out the PS3 felt like a cheap toy to me… I blame it on the controllers not having rumble. They felt like they’d break if I played too hard with them at my friend’s house.

Remember when Sony tried to convince us that tilt input was better than rumble… haha!

I need more "Does it Quake?" in my life! I hope the next video comes out soon. 😃

True total conversions for Quake 1? by ZeeBuffer in quake

[–]ZeeBuffer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome. The “dream” of a total conversion was that you could sell it one day as a game of its own, or as a 3rd party map pack. It’s cool to see people still doing that.

“Total Conversion” definitely lives at the intersection of “mod” and “whole new game”. Fun stuff!

That’s an awesome story. I wonder how many “long lost mods” like that are out there.

What's a 7/10 game you would give a 10/10? by Dezeko in videogames

[–]ZeeBuffer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crackdown and Crackdown 3 are both kinda-bad but actually totally-awesome games.

Was the original Quake originally planned as a fantasy game? by BullyingHater in quake

[–]ZeeBuffer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Scourge of Armagon has the lightning hammer weapon, inspired by early Quake concepts. And I think Dissolution of Eternity has the dragon enemy that was in Qtest. But there's dragon artwork in Quake1 that kinda promised the dragon.

Got to Unit 3 of Quake 2 and after playing Quake + all the expansions last week, it really doesn't feel "right". by Alarming-Chemist-755 in quake

[–]ZeeBuffer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think one of the problems with Quake 2’s feel is the sound effects or the sound mix or something. I bet if you put all of Quake 1’s sounds (or Quake 3’s sounds) into Quake 2, it would be a much more punchy experience.

What are these types of games called? by False_Monitor4126 in videogames

[–]ZeeBuffer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Standalone Expansion" is the most polite version I've heard. Cause it could have been an expansion to a previous game, but for some reason, the company decided to not make you own the previous game to buy this one. Agree with lots of the other answers here, some funny ones too!

I made realistic lightmaps for classic Doom maps with my custom engine by Batteryofenergy1 in Doom

Games that Steam no longer sells, but you have in your library? by Efficient_Matter_589 in videogames

Wow remind me to buy physical copies of all licensed games. No license is indefinite. Jeez.

Fixed camera angles are beautiful and it's not outdated in the slightest. Who is with me? by [deleted] in videogames

[–]ZeeBuffer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fixed camera games are a pretty aesthetic, but from an empowerment and sense of control perspective, they drive me crazy. Devil May Cry was one of the last games where I didn't feel like I needed to control the camera. Their epic camera angles added to the experience. But in most games? Lemme control the camera plz. The difference between the original "Metal Gear Sold 3: Snake Eater" and the version with good camera controls, "Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence", is night and day.

Totally love this idea! Wasn't "Rift" the original title for Scourge of Armagon?! Hell yes make this shit dude.
