    Ion Fury, a new Build Engine game out now.

    Would it be possible to demake the game so that it can be run on a 486? I wonder how much effort that would involve.

    Doom: Annihilation update

    I thought both the D3 guy and ROEguy looked quite similar to the original Doomguy.

    Yeah, was referring to Lt. Dark. Nina's fine. She's got that huge jawline too which helps. I saw her gym pics and she could fit the role.

    Doom: Annihilation update

    You have a solid argument but the problem (for me at least) is that status bar face is so ingrained in my mind that I can't imagine the Doomguy being anything else than a guy resembling that picture, especially that remade picture I posted a while ago. The same would be for Gordon Freeman or Ripley in Aliens. The Rock could have been a great Doomguy but they blew it. Maybe I made the wrong impression but I really have no problem against female protagonists. I like the new Ion Fury character a lot (at least her design) and I played a femshep in Mass Effect in half of my playthroughs but this actress doesn't really look the part. If you're going to fight demons you'd better hit the gym and be in shape and athletic. How else are you going to fight 10 revenants and 50 chaingunners at once? She really doesn't project that strong female archetype well. Doom ain't no romcom.

    That's different, the player deliberately played the game slowly. The new trailer is better than the old one though.

    Because the trailer is representative of the quality of the final product. The new trailer is better though.

    Which demon in doom is annoying to you?

    Only the Lost Souls.

    Ion Fury, a new Build Engine game out now.

    Here's some quick impressions: Weapons: The Loverboy is a weird weapon. It's very powerful but the animation feels stiff and the sound is really weak. It's more of a plop than a loud bang. Meanwhile the alt-fire is very powerful and the increased ammo usage doesn't seem to balance that. I would have made the alt-fire a hard to find upgrade instead. Shotgun is great but the sound is a bit weak. It takes a bit long to switch to grenade mode though. The Uzis (forgot their name) are very powerful but the ammo is very rare for some reason. Takes a long time to reload too. Crossbow is a great weapon, especially if you hold down the alt fire button. Chaingun is pretty powerful too. They changed the Bowling Bombs. They no longer stick to enemies that much. I did complain about them being too powerful but I'm not sure how to use them anymore. Only used the Clusterpuck a couple of times but they are very powerful. Level Design: Hands down the best I have seen in any recent classic shooter. Long, epic and very beautiful. They are chock-full of secrets, many of which are really hard to find and I am usually quite good at finding them. I only found about half. Lots of interactivity and variety too. It's like the culmination of 20 years of mapping. Some levels are better than others but none of them are bad. The level with lots of cargo and warehouses was really great but the one with the GDF headquarters was kind of mediocre. Not bad but not that great. Enemies: This is where all build games suffer a bit. There are no annoying hitscanners like in Blood or Duke3D but the balance is not quite as refined as in Doom and Quake. As said before, there are not really any annoying hitscanners but the projectiles are quite fast maybe a bit too fast to comfortably dodge. Some of the enemies, like the flying drone that fires small projectiles are needlessly annoying. The projectiles are small, fast and make no sound but do a lot of damage. It's not bad or anything but nowhere near Doom or Quake. Shelly: I really like her design. I'm glad they ditched those weird semi-nude concept arts. She actually looks like a cop. She is not a supermodel but she's pretty. She looks like those cute girls you see at the gym and I kinda like that. Too bad her personality is a bit bland and try-hard though. So yeah, this is a great game that everyone should get. I remember years ago when I was hoping for a retro revival and this is it. I would have called you crazy if you had told me there would be another Build Engine game.

    What do you think those quotes are for?

    Because they are "good" people who have the "right" opinions.

    I can tell you why, at least in cases like these. It's because most of the people from boards like ResetERA or Pedogaf are worthless individuals who amount to nothing and they are jealous of the success of developers like TerminX so they do the most petty thing possible and try to get people fired because that's all these miserable little shits are capable of. The only thing they have going in their life is that rush they get when they do something "good". If they truly cared about being good they would start with their communities and oust the pedos and other weirdos.

    These activist types also fail to praise the devs for making a strong female character that's not just a pair of tits when they could have easily done so considering the legacy of this game. I like her design a lot actually. Her personality is a bit bland and try-hard though.

    @ReaperAA I read it too. Told you these were not "nice" people. Give these people more power and pretty soon you'll have the Thoughtpolice.

    Someone should demake the game so you can run it on old 486 computers. Is that possible?

    What do you guys want from the sequel? Here's what I want. I want it to be on the Quake engine and basically be what Duke Nukem Forever was advertising in that 2001 trailer. Now all 3D Realms gotta do is get their hands on the Blood and Duke Nukem rights to make more games in this style and I can die happy. Monolith and Gearshit are not doing anything with the rights so why not? Maybe they could start a fundraiser to get money for the rights.

    Who cares what they think? The game is good, that is the only thing that matters.

    I'm not that deep into the issue and I have no idea what that is but if it's true then yeah, it's fucking creepy. But at least they don't have that holier-than-though mentality.

    It seemed like you were because you said that only nazis were the wrong side of history. I am only referencing this because these people have the same kind of thoughtpolice mindset and I think it's fucking creepy.

    It's funny how only people from countries who have never been under either of these ideologies want to bring them back. They were BOTH evil. Don't believe me? Check this out. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitești_Prison This is the endpoint of this kind of mindset. What you see on Pedogaf is just the beginning and a symptom of a much larger problem. They probably don't care that you don't want to play their game. You are just a very tiny and vocal minority.

    I'm not saying anything about the trans issue but TerminX is right about these activist types trying to get people fired, especially from shitstain sites like Pedogaf and Resetera. They did it before with one of the Subnautica developers. It's like they police developers to see if they have the "right opinion" or not. They did it before and they're going to try again. The funny thing is that they are not even good people because they host a lot of super-creepy and hypocritical people. Here's just a taste, there is a lot more. https://www.polygon.com/2017/10/22/16516592/neogaf-tyler-malka-evilore-allegations-shutdown I really hope 3DRealms don't give in to these people and don't fire him. It's really creepy and reminds me of when nazis asked Tolkien if he was jewish or not before they could publish his novels in Germany and when communists ratted out people who had the "wrong opinion". So what if he doesn't like trans people and SJWs? He is a free person and has every right to an opinion. It doesn't affect the quality of the game at all. I play WADs and games from people whose opinions I don't agree with, why can't you?

    You don't get it, he's complaining that they delivered exactly what they had promised, which is a 90s shooter exactly like Duke 3D. I guess the game needed some lootboxes and 10 minute cinematics with "social commentary" to pander to his Mountain Dew-addled "game-journo" brain.
