it feels like Horii and co were taking notes from their acquaintances at Square after their collaboration on Chrono Trigger and because they had also convinced them to jump ship to the PS1. it shows in everything from the narrative to the game mechanics

it's an brand new port referenced from the original source code with other bonuses like rewritten netcode, an Vault like their other releases or Marrow and Death Wish (future update when episode 4 is completed) being included and additional bugfixes or enhancements and a fair bit more than that

2.5D peaked with it and FF Tactics and we've only seen diminishing returns since

there is an very good chance whatever HLX is supposed to be will feature that with the extra caveat of it actually affecting gameplay somewhat.

recently I've been playing Tom's Halls, an DOOM Alpha/Bible themed communuity project WAD largely based on reimagining the unused maps and textures that trickled out over the years as more id style levels. most of the map design has been pretty incredible both aesthetically and design wise.

if the people calling the shots had an backbone they would've done something like old TSR era covers with two warriors fighting at each others side against unspeakable horrors as an homoerotic allegory

it's why Baldur's Gate 3 immediately set off alarm bells in my mind despite being an big fan of Larian's Divinity: Original Sin duology for being the sorts of games the indstry needs more of desperately. it's just completely beholden to the whims of modern Wizards and it's design reflects that

opening some peoples public ratings site lists is an pretty good case for the fact some people are squandering the privilege of free will

I know modern DB has tons of filler but this is getting ridiculous

there's no way Derek Yu hadn't played La Mulana before this too

Spelunky is an weird mutation of Super Mario controls and it's design still manages to feel like it's an traditional roguelike from an new perspective. extremely inspired game and the sequel is brilliant too because they gave you an ton of insane esoteric challenges to shoot for

teensy tiny preview of the updated laser lab in FUBAR, about a week of work so far & I'm already so, so much happier with this compared to how it looked before, WIP as always!💜

fucked up and evil idea I thought of while playing an home conversion of Versus SMB: an "3rd quest" of Super Mario Bros. with the Hard mode enemy changes, OG Lakitu throw behavior, SMB2J Hammer Bros. and some of the level/gameplay alterations from Vs.SMB

User @userplayer89.bsky.social · 16d

everyone loves to piss on right wingers having an anyeurism when their products/media don't agree with them for good reason but people also applying vaguely leftist politics to their consumerism is getting unbearable enough we need to call out that out at some point too

both it and RTCW look really nice with IDTech3's lighting model and texture capabilities being used for more realisitic environments
