Let's Play Necrovision



This is a game. It's made by some ex-Medal Of Honor guys and a few artists who worked on Painkiller, they call themselves The Farm 51, yeah the "The" is in their title. A good chunk of people from The Farm 51 went on to create their own studio called Destructive Creations, who are now putting the finishing touches on much anticipated game Hatred. That means this must be good, right?

I'm gonna play this game for you, there's gonna be people helping me commentate over it, a few of them might even like NecroVisioN. Who knows, maybe you'll have as much fun as we do.

This. It's a shame that instead of the beautiful over-the-top batshit insanity they decided to tone the whole thing down. Necrovision is still one of my favorite shooters.

I wholeheartedly believe that NecroVisioN is one of the greatest shooters made in the last 10 years, like top 10. I also believe this says a shitton about the quality of shooters nowadays.

and now say that every time they start their mail truck engine

I'm sorry this thread does not meet your need for Bulletstorm, however I'm proud to inform you I have more content of a game that really WANTS to be Bulletstorm.

If this is not enough, please consider this partial playthrough done by my good pal Fridurmus and other nice people. He might return to it after finals are done at his school. I might guest when that happens. Maybe.

Good news, everyone! I got a couple new videos here!

Part 4 with Lesbiathan and Instant Grat
Part 5 with Lesbiathan, Fridurmus and Ceciltron

So, I wanna talk a little bit about the remnants of People Can Fly for a bit. Back when they were together they made Painkiller and an expansion pack called Battle out of Hell, which apparently was a collection of levels that got picked off the cutting room floor and put in a vaguely linear fashion. All Painkiller games made after that were glorified fan mods.

I don't know the exact timeline here, but I do know that after Battle out of Hell People Can Fly got bought out by Epic Games and set to work on the PC port of Gears of War, and that two distinct studios got founded by ex-People Can Fly people: The Farm 51 and Flying Wild Hog.

Flying Wild Hog went on to make such titles as Hard Reset - which was crap, and the reimagining of Shadow Warrior - which was real good. The brunt of the gameplay and technical talent at The Farm 51 is actually made up of people from 2015, Inc., a developer most known for making Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, with the ex-People Can Fly portion being made up of artists. Meanwhile, the people who stuck at People Can Fly, even after they hosed up Gears of War Judgment, now work under a new label: Epic Games Poland.
