media bad, gun good

I wonder if Id ever made a game like this again if it would do well these days.

medieval starsector

Thinking about it a little bit more.

The game is fun but just so lacking, So much content from the original just gone and nemesis just mostly exists now to shuffle you along to the next chapter, not so much a constant pursuer like his classic counterpart or the modern mr.x

I was really excited to see places like RC park and the dead factory all done up in HD just for them to be completely absent.

also no mercenaries mode. :(

It's also weird how much they toned down the gore tech in this game, Enemies don't really ragdoll, their arms dont dangle before falling off their stumps anymore and you can't really tear them apart with the shotgun like you could in the previous game either. I'm going to guess it has to be some sort of optimization thing, but you would think with how much more action oriented this game is they would really want to show off that cool gore tech they had in REmake2


again the game is ok, a pretty big step down from the previous remake in content, I cannot recommend it at it's current price. get it on a sale

Horrible and bloated mess of a game.

There had a less artificial way to encourage diverse usage of your arsenal. The arbitrary weaknesses they give the enemies are just annoying, Like it just makes it feel like I'm never making my own judgement calls, I'm just doing what the game tells me to do, I'm just breaking out the rock to that monster's scissors if that makes any sense. It's hilarious though how much harder they'vee gone with that awful concept with the DLCS.
How that spirit enemy can only be harmed by the MWB, I even joked about like them introducing an enemy that requires you to use the full auto mod in the next dlc (cuz I imagine it's statistically the second most under used mod) and here we are, next dlc is introducing an imp variant that is highly resistant to everything but the full auto mod.

I kinda feel like if you need to give your enemies hard weaknesses like that to MAKE the player change up their weapons that maybe there's some underlining flaw in your gameplay formula. How did the id classics do it?

oh and the story and lore is pretty bad too. how do you make a simple story about a man vs hell demons on mars so bloated and convoluted. God they seemed so determined they were to demystify everything about the world they set up, they really didn't want to leave anything to the players imagination with these awful lore entries. Their explinations made hell and heaven seem so mundane, that angels and demons are nothing more than mutants and aliens.

I also kinda dislike the art direction and over all aesthetics. hate the marvel sci-fantasy ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ it has going on with the not-asgardians and the not-angels and I hate how toy-like and clean all the characters and creatures look, which is probably deliberate so these things can easily be translated into toys and other merch.

I dislike this game so much it makes me yearn for more doom16 lol

This isn't doom, it's doom at a very vague superficial level. This game has more in common with the likes of shadow warrior (2013) and hard reset than it does doom.


Man I really hope they don't do a quake reboot. lol

Plz make a sequel and if it isn't asking 4 2 much a mission/map editor.

if u like door kickers or survivor squad you'd probably enjoy this game. It's a bit rough in places but over all pretty fun

it's like if Space Beast Terror Fright was more realized.

A (mostly) stealth based 4 player co-op game where u go sneaking around bonking monsters on heads with mallets while doing objectives for a broken AI. You -NEED- Teamwork, I can only recommend this game if you at the very least have two other friends to play with and voice communication is pretty much a must to have a chance of getting through the mid and lower levels alive.

I don't recommend this game if you expect something like l4d or vermintide where u can blitz on through, to get through an unfamiliar level in gtfo can sometimes take up to a couple hours(or longer), if you can't handle that you probably aughta pass. Not a dis towards CASUALS OR ANYTHING just like a warning because not everyone has that kind of time.

but uh i love this game, I love how actually team work oriented it is

Games workshop should get in contact with this dev about making a space hulk fps.

think it might end up being my favorite throwback shooter released. What I played is really good, and the lvls are gorgeous with pretty fun enemies.

Think my only criticism is that the secondary fires for most of the other wise meaty weapons either feel kind of weak or kinda suck to use and the cyst gun sounds kinda wimpy for a power weapon but i guess what you can you do with a goo ball lobbing slingshot
