So, much grumping as there is around BD, I just realized an advantage to it having fully internalized sprites now: It should be compatible with a lot of maps that have slight sprite changes of their own. Stuff like recolored imps. Might even behave well with Back To Saturn X.

I think it's cool to have blank slates that aren't white dudes because "white dude" being the Default Human is lovely but blank slate characters in general are not great writing, these are not incompatible points

And I think they're pretty similar, very tough and tricky play with lots of restricted movement on narrow ledges. Perfect Hatred is very myopic and single-minded; The Inmost Dens expands into a malevolent sense of space and better narrative without losing the tension or focus.

Wait poo poo sorry I got my level names mixed up. I meant The Living End literally every time I said the Inmost Dens. MAP14 is not the same nor as good as E4M2. e: and then I hosed up again!

Segmentation Fault posted:How is anything he's saying worthy of the moniker "shithead?" Making a character that's just a blank slate is incredibly poor characterization, and I imagine early FPS fans would be incredibly aware of this. Extreme Islamophobia aside (since what he said is equivalent to "Islamic women aren't real people" because of the Burka statement; I guess they should be counted as property according to American McGee?) he's failing to realize that while the character is a "blank slate" they are still closer to what people who aren't cishet white guys can relate to. Sure, they may be just pixels on a screen, but they're pixels on a screen that are more relateable to the player than 99.99% of other (universally cishet white male) videogame characters.

The state of classism and ethnic division in Brazil is basically Apartheid and Caste system rolled into one. All White Brazilians need to be lined up in front a ditch and shot.

THREAD RESET --------- So anyone here have Jedi Knight 1 from Gog? If so, how is it on modern systems? I'm thinking of picking it up as the Steam version is pretty lazy - there's no music at all, and the game switches to a desktop window every time a movie plays.

GOG version probably isn't much better since the game is barely functional and closed source as gently caress.

Spear: End of Destiny was awesome, save for a few weird levels in the middle of the mapset. Great final level, too. IT was neat to see the abandoned Rise of the Triad concepts used here, like the gun turret and rocket lawnchair.

Jblade posted:The loading screens had a counter that would increase whilst making an obnoxious TIC-TOC-TIC-TOC noise. The game won't proceed until that counter reaches the end, so basically even though nowadays we could load a level in that game near instantly you would still have to wait for the counter to finish before you could play it. Nothing like a streamlined experience!

That only happens if you have v-sync enabled. Disabling it makes it load very quickly. 1.3 removes the sound, which gets rid of the problem. In 1.3, it loads in a second or so.

I've finally bought Outlaws on GOG, and to put it short, it's awesome to finally play the full thing and see how the various pieces I remember from magazines connect into full game. Interestingly, the UFO secret is in the first mission, and not the second, as in demo. Anyone knows what the pen does? Outside of writing a note in guestbook at Stan's Used Coffin Store? Too bad the whole thing seems to be forced to work with Direct3D filters, so clouds look absolutely horrible and sprites are washed, but alas, probably using the D3D made the whole thing possible to run.

E2M2 is one of my least favorite levels in all of Doom and that lil blurb really nails down why, gently caress the crate maze and the crate maze trend it inspired in Doom mapping and gently caress the rest of the boring non-memorable level.

I dunno, I'm running 1.3 and it still makes me sit through the friggin loading screen. If I alt-tab and go back in it loads instantly, but that has problems of its own. if i disable v-sync i get tearing all over the place.

So I got Outlaws, and I can't get it to launch in Glide mode at all. DirectX mode works well enough, though the automap is completely unusable.

I actually rather like E2M2. I mean, the box maze is kinda eh (I can only imagine "top men" designed that room), but the back half of the map has some memorable moments - like the hall of crushers with the room hidden next to one that you can only run into when the crushers are lifting.

How bad is N64 Daikatana? I'm tempted to buy it off of eBay and play it, but only if it's particularly remarkably bad in some way. Other than the obvious problem of being Daikatana.

Well it's levels are cut up even worse, it's uglier, and it has an awful control scheme. I don't think it has the AI partners though, so it balances out.
