This is a perfectly acceptable 8/10 gameIt's nothing mindblowing but it's pretty enjoyable when you just want to turn your brain off and pulp a ton of enemies with your big gun
>>730822135Uh what
>>730822090I wish the secrets and explorarion had more impact, ammo in the main levels are bizarrely plentiful for the amount of guns you have, and every time I found a secret it was like discoverihg the game had power ups for the first time. A duke3d style inventory could have really helped
Name 3 better boomer shooters that aren't ion fury. I dropped hedon.
>>730822332dusk, turbo overkill, cultic
Since their adding Khorne dudes in the sequel, Slaanesh is the only absent chaos god. Where is he? Does James Workshop hate sex that much?
>>730822090The mapmakers sure do love shipping containers.
>>730822613*they're i'm retarded
>>730822332Prodeus is pretty cool.
>>730822581turbo ok is a zoomer shooter.
>>730822090>8/10Try 6/10. Without the basedhammer motif it would be a 5/10 at best
Yeah.
>shoot enemy>they explode into goreI been spoilt by customizing nash's gore mod for doom, I need these games to have good death animations with gore when it actually fits!
This game improved alot when I installed a mod that triggered the taunt after a kill
>>730823019You're shooting them with tiny rockets, i'd say the gore fits.
Wasn't a fan of the episode structure resetting your weapons, as that's more of an old game thing that made sense when they were trying to sell Episode 1 as piecemeal in stores for $10. Though I have proof most Steam users are casuals when it comes to FPSes, even in ones where you can literally savescum to win. >>730822332If you call things "boomer shooter", you are a retarded faggot and something really awful should happen to you IRL. Nonsense phrase pushed by absolute faggots.
>>730823465What would you call the subgenre then?
>>730822332Wrath: aeon of ruin
>>730823561What they've always been since Duke obliterated the Doom clone label: FPSes
>>730823561Retro fps
What is the point of this piece of shit?
>>730823561uncslop
>>730823662But there's a big difference between boomer shooters and shit like cod or battlefield.That's like wanting Age of Empires, Civilization and Fire Emblem to all be called only "strategy". Technically right, but they follow different ideas.
>>730823914Nuance is gay tho
>>730823747It's worth using when you get those upgrades on it, buuuut, I have a tough time justifying whipping it out in the HUGE arena encounters. >Filters the average supposed FPS fan>>730823914But which came first? COD and Battlefield should have to come up with their own stupid alternate names for the genre.
>>730824080God i hate these motherfuckers. It was incredibly cathartic watching them stroll into the instakill gear hole in that one level.
>>730822613>Does James Workshop hate sex that much?yes remember their original audience is middle white boys with disposable money from their parants so having models with tits out like the old Deiz Demonettes is something that caused a bit of a stir with those middle class parants
>>730823465>>730823561I'm fine with the term boomer shooter referring to contemporary indie FPS games that adopt a classic/retro overall gameplay design
>>730822090its biggest problem is that it overstay its welcome
>>730822332HROT
>>730827358TRVKE
>>730827000Agreed. It would've been helped if there were more varied mission objectives throughout the stages than just "find red/blue/yellow key to open door and reach exit" and more varied boss encounters to keep things fresh. Also a lot of arena fights could've done with having less enemy density but more lethality, because holy HELL do some of them take a lifetime to slog through. The gameplay loop should be like a rollercoaster with high points and low points, but some arena fights are just so long you never get a chance to take a breath from running around and shooting everything chasing you and they're simply exhausting. I can think of a few arenas from Forges of Corruption that really stretch the limits of patience. And horde mode, but at least that mode is for people who are asking for it.>t. picrel
>>730823465I actually hate when games dont reset your inventory across episodes, it loses a lot of tension if you're spending most of the game fully stocked on every option.I genuinely enjoy having my skill tested with an unoptimal arsenal
>>730823561Arsenal shooter
>>730828752To expand, I wish the new age ideas of these games leaned a little more towards survival horror than character action with guns. Ammo never feels like a balancing tool anymore
>>730823561nu-uncslop
>>730823465Uh oh balding mexican unc had a millennial mantitty melty
>>730829160Hispanics don't like FPSes, and they especially weren't playing them in the 90's when PCs were stupidly expensive.
>>730823465Only 16% of people even beat chapter 2, I think it's just that people stopped playing early on. No idea why
>>730829621Warhammer nerds would rather be paintingDawn of War fans would rather be RTSing
