Personally I found it disappointing how so many took their level design from Wolfenstein or Doom and the only one that tried to follow up on Duke 3D was Slayers X. Even Ion Fury felt more like Prime Target, and Dusk felt like a dare to make Redneck Rampage good.
Duskâs level design gets awesome later, but itâs pretty annoying to have to get through near a whole episode of Just Ok first
The dungeon sprinter games never really pushed past just cloning doom, quake, etc except to fuse it with some abominable modern âgameplay loopâ centric genre like roguelite so thereâs a ton of untapped potential there if the taste for straightforward clones can be overcome.
At the least, clone Strife! I know there are retro imsim clones like peripeteia and monomyth but I want to see some iteration along the hybrid of a dungeon sprinter and proto-imsim
I was about to say where are the Strifelikes
Thinking about Snowboard Kids 2. Thinking about how only 5 courses actually had snow on them, and two of them were the trick course and mail delivery course. I wish the series had managed to successfully keep going and spawn at least a half dozen Penny Arcade strips where the punchline was them renaming the series to âBoard Kidsâ.
FF7âs original localization is not that well thought of but âOmnislashâ is one of the funniest names for a technique that I can imagine.
And I guess Vincent had âGigadunkâ and âSatan Slam.â whoever did the limit break names was cooking
master chief never talks during player controlled gameplay in bungie halos. he constantly talks during player controlled gameplay in 343 Industries halos. idk how they havenât picked up on this in 13 years of owning this IP. someone should do the âwile e. coyote rulesâ but for 343 industries (sorry, âHalo Studiosâ) so they actually understand their own character.
In Tekken Tag Tournament why does Kazuya have a karate-sound that sounds like âKazuya!â
how else are people going to know whos doing a karate on them
kazuya is a billionaire and very branding conscious
every time kazuya punches someone his stocks go up but only if people know its him
Iâm reminded of when leadership would go on remote âalignmentâ trips where theyâd stay at a fancy hotel and try to figure out the âcore pillarsâ of âhaloâ. The word âfantasyâ gets thrown around a lot, like âwhatâs the core fantasy?â and it felt like a bunch of people trying to sound smart by deploying buzzwords. I feel like what Master Chief actually is according to Microsoft is hanging out on a confluence page somewhere.
itâs so stupid all they need is an original xbox and the original games and like 20 hours of gameplay and a brain. they can figure out what the âpillarsâ are themselves itâs called âart criticismâ

thinking about the Dark Souls 2 NPC Ornifex, who is a crow-headed âharpyâ whose model is taken right from a Dark Souls enemy that only appears in a magical painting realm. and how her voice actor perfectly nails a humanoid being that thinks like a human but talks with a crowâs syrinx
do you have, a WONdrous soul??
=caw= be safe!!
Wow.
i should also say about her: goals. voice goals, aesthetic goals, etc. like in general
when her voice goes deep
