I mean halo 1 deservedly gets flak for copy pasting its levels like mad. There’s not a lot of variety going from one identically laid out arena to another identically laid out arena or sitting in a room while monsters pour in from monster closets in slightly different groupings.
Halo 1 had exactly one good level, Silent Cartographer
i like the eponymous level and assault on the control room too…the real problem with a lot of the indoor areas, which have very classic bungie design, is that theyre married to the shittiest enemies in the game
ohhh yeah i see what you mean! i just liked the really confusing indoor design because it felt like marathon
yeah all the forerunner structures just felt like a more effective way of disorienting the player than marathon’s method of “make the level a fucking maze!” i really like the library as a level conceptually because it feels very marathon, and the way progress is basically impossible to gauge is offputting and weird
well, maybe you’re a scrub, or maybe you just want different things from your FPSes. i guess we’ll never know because one thing must definitely be better than other things!
I definitely don’t wanna just run around corridors and shoot people!
You don’t understand that’s the best part
There’s something very, idk, comfy? about the offices, abandoned apartments and industrial complexes set in western and midwestern America that so many shooters of the 90s and 00s did. I guess it started with Half Life.
Yeah FEAR is only good as a pure shooter. The horror trappings are the worst kind of “is this popular now?” and the aesthetics are utterly boring. Aside from the absolutely radical Woo-esque environmental destruction you really wouldn’t lose anything by making everything out of flat shaded cubes.
Damn it’s some good ass shooting though
jazz punk is the best single player first person shooter experience
Nooooo
first person shooters are only good if theres a thousand minigames to distract you from the fact that you’re playing a first person shooter
my favorite first person shooter is playing all thieves in wizardry
im glad ive finally completely lost all interest in shooters so i can just play jrpgs until the day i die
i only play first person shooters where you can first person shoot your piss. crypt worlds and postal 2 are the only first person shooters
Where do you rank forbes corporate warrior
forbes corporate warrior is allowed to hang out with pathways into darkness, but pathways never calls forbes, always the other way around
forbes corporate warrior looks like the internet in johnny mnemonic
Anyway, pokemon snap is the best FPS
My dream future for Call of Duty is you control a warzone photographer following a combat unit, bonding with squad members between missions, and you have to take action shots. Pokemon Snap meets Full Metal Jacket.
yeah and hot dogs are sandwiches
