reach is still an o.k. game. the first halo doesn't exactly hold up, but regenerating health and stuff was an absolute post modern deconstruction of the fps 20 years ago

The Voice of Labor posted:reach is still an o.k. game. the first halo doesn't exactly hold up, but regenerating health and stuff was an absolute post modern deconstruction of the fps 20 years ago I don't really think it was a good thing. It fucks up pacing imo. there's really no point in having people hide behind cover for 15 seconds to regenerate health, it's better to reward constant movement and aggression in a more DOOME sort of way by getting up in their face and bashing them into a pinata to keep powering through. of course all games play different but i think it's just extra unneeded downtime and shouldn't be designed to pop your head out, trade a few shots, regenerate, repeat. Probably the most genius absolutely insanely smart, yet so loving simple, decision I've seen in a recent FPS shooter is in Control where you don't have regenerating health (pickups only) but your ammo regenerates. it's such a simple thing yet it's actually very brilliant. the rest of the combat is mostly boring because you just fight mindzaped human, fungus human, floating human in a chair, and that's the entirety of your enemies, but that was a really sharp tweak.

Honestly I thought it was a step from from earlier health pack based FPS games where you could get yourself into situations you didn't have enough health to survive.

I'm only at the end of Day 3 in Disco Elysium, but I am so utterly absorbed into the worldbuilding of this game it's not funny everything about the Pale and Dolores Dei I've learned thus far are like, mind-shattering things to learn when you start out assuming the setting is grounded, if fictionalized version of the world

Yeah i guess i mostly mean that 'god in us' or 'god is within us' with the implicit 'est' seems v random in relation to that game (i assume it's supposed to be the motto of the flying aircraft carrier service). I'm not familiar with that poem's subject matter though, maybe it makes more sense E; i guess they're nuclear powered, maybe that's it

I'd imagine the large degree of ambiguity in meaning is quite intentional, given the game's apparent setting and subject-matter

Jon Irenicus posted:when Joyce began describing the shape of the world I had to reread things a few times before comprehending the ramifications Meaning what? It's basically literally flat earth pieces, broken up into large masses of water/land that are separated by the Pale. I assume it meant at one point it was a normal planet that then got shattered/broken and somehow kept it's properties.

I was clicking through it all kinda "yeah yeah tell me about the murder" but it's awfully well designed stuff. (I still think it's not necessary to be honest. the pale only achieves the same separation between colonized and colonizers that an ocean does but a homebrew RPG gotta have some paranormal elements I guess.)
