Come to think of it, the slow pace stalled out for me too. It was fun, but things moved so slowly that every failure was all the more aggravating.

drat, Shadow Warrior 2 looks dope as hell. Anyone know if a AMD Radeon HD 8400 can run anything at all modern, or should I just give up now and stick to simpler games? This is also why I haven't bought Doom. And why I'm languishing in despair over my desire for the next Ghost Recon.

Everyone should play Switch 'N' Shoot. It's extremely cheap and extremely good. Totally nails the 70s arcade shooter aesthetic without being retro for the sake of retro, and has a decent challenge. I'm hugely satisfied with it.

My Steam Review posted:

Switch 'N' Shoot is remarkably simple, but so fun. Hard as nails too. My amusement is matched only by my frustration and desire to get further.

Seriously, it does so much with so little. It's masterful. There's not much to say about it, you just gotta experience it for yourself.

COD has been sci Fi stuff for like 4 or 5 years at this point

Even Advanced Warfare was barely even hard sci fi, it's huge selling point was how everything in it was a realistic extension of what the military has been considering for ages now. Still pretty bro-ish.

Always gotta love a lazy postman. Wasn't aware I lived at a business but just got a message saying "Business was closed" on why they failed a delivery.

You know how post offices have high rates of work place shootings? Petty loving with citizens is how they work out the frustration and prevent killing their co-workers.

I understand a creator using parody as a defense for something riffing on an already existing IP but when it's actual people it starts getting just a biiiiiiit uncomfortable, which is how I feel when I see this Kickstarter project.

Because I got to play a bit of it and the fundamental combat design was fun. It sounds like the actual flaws are more along the lines of needless padding, grinding, bad level design and so-on. So it's a case of "this could have been fun if not for all the poo poo."

Mm, that's fair. Honestly, even Mighty No. 9 could have been a decent enough game if they gave a poo poo, but if they gave a poo poo they wouldn't have done MN9 all and maybe skipped straight to this one.

Metzen's been directly responsible for a lot of the poo poo that turned people off of WoW (beside pure tedium) over the years and was a chronic retconner of his own stories so it's probably for the best.

Are there any good horror shooters that succeed at being horror? I ask not because I want to play one, but because I'm interested in an academic sense. It seems like the shoter genre is inherently a power trip, regardless of difficulty, and that clashes with what makes horror work. Ergo why Doom 3 wasn't fun and Resident Evil became a silly action movie when it shifted to a third person shooter.

I guess there's Dead Space, but I've heard it also succumbs to action creep by the time of the third game.

But the interview was obviously not translated by the same people who usually did the old Iwata Asks interviews as there's one singular translation choice that sticks out which differentiates the two. I'll let you find out what it is.
