    Ancient? SNES? Ouch.

    Doom Eternal thoughts thread.

    Each to their own. I prefer controllers as keyboard/mouse is too clinical for me. It's just point-and-click with no real feel for the environment. For me.

    Doom Eternal thoughts thread.

    Thoughts on Doom Eternal? Ok, this is copy-pasted from a message I sent a friend who was asking about it: "It's fun, but the glory kills get repetitive and take a bit too long so they break up the action quite often. Thing is, you need to do them (and chainsaw kills) to get health and ammo as...

    Plans for the Covid 19 Lockdown

    Work from home as best I can. Play Xbox. Exercise. Read. Binge on Netflix. So other than working from home pretty much business as usual.

    The DOOM Eternal review thread

    Actually, DeliveryGodNoah had a pretty good angle on him. There is a fair amount of <a href=http://www.classicdoom.com/doomtext.htm>characterization in Doom 1 & 2 that is completely skipped over in more recent games that do indeed paint him in such a light. In Doom 1 we learn that the whole...

    Who would win in a fight?

    John McClane. All he has to do is draw the fight out past the first day. After that Bauer will suffer severe exhaustion drop-off and will be a push-over. Yippee ki-yay. The Nerevarine vs the Dragon-born.

    Tempted by a title

    A few of us actually did this for a friend - that is clubbed together and bought her a square foot of land in Scotland for her 30th, legally allowing her to call herself Lady Joanne. It's a novelty more than anything, like 'buying' a star for someone. Still, it can be great fun around people who...

    "This game is worse than I remember"

    2 is by far the better of the pair. The issue is that old D&D problem - that when your character is low level pretty much everything is a trial, but when you hit kinda level 10 onward that's where all the cool abilities are. As it is with Baldur's Gate 1 & 2. During 1, when you're slowly...

    "This game is worse than I remember"

    Baldur's Gate 1 & 2 for me. It's not so much that the games have aged poorly or anything like that, it's just when I used to play them back in the day I was used to 2nd Ed D&D rules. Over the years I've moved on to other RPG systems and pretty much forgotten 2nd Ed rules. And going back to them...
