Strangely, DOOM 2. I really like DOOM 1, and have finished it multiple times, but DOOM 2 is just not fun - or fun enough - for me. I can't get past the first dozen levels before I get bored of the game. Mainly because I know that mancubus and pain elemental spam is going to get upscaled to shit...

As someone who is completely unfamiliar with modding, would it be possible to port over New Vegas to the updated engine Fallout 4 uses? If it is, is anyone trying to do it?

What was that name of that Kickstarter Fallout-like game that was posted here not too long ago?

Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel is the definitive Fallout game.

A shit stain.

Hey! I like Jim Sterling! He's got a heart of gold.

Pioneer is a free space sim that features realistic space physics, moving planets, a large universe, planetary landing, and a number of different activities. It's inspired by the Elite series. It's pretty good, and free to boot! Oolite is a free reboot of the classic Elite games. It has all the...

I wouldn't say the scale of No Man's sky is impossible, just hard to do. Games near the scale of No Man's Sky have existed since the 80s with the Elite series seeing its inception in 1984. Elite didn't have 18 quintillion planets that you could land on, but it had 8 galaxies with 250 or so...

I wouldn't go as far as to say the game doesn't exist. There's nothing that was presented in the trailers that doesn't appear in the full game (aside from multiplayer.) It's more of a case of shady marketing and public hype. Shady marketing as in presenting the game to REALLY be unique every...

It really makes me upset, because the amount of variation on a handful of planets is surely impressive; however, going passed that handful makes it dull! If they instead put all that variation on a single planet it would be a much, much, MUCH better game. Imagine an Earth sized world to run...

Mount&Blade: Bannerlord. Looks like a straight up improvement over Warband in every way. That makes it a must buy for me.

There's already a thread talking about how successful the marketing of the game is (and it really is), but the thread is targeting the wrong people. The thread SHOULD have been targeting Hello Games for their shady framing of what the game was supposed to be. I have not purchased the game. I...

As far as the classics go, I prefer Fallout 2 because it feels better and more complete than 1. But 1 has good atmosphere. It's kinda like the difference between DOOM 1 and 2, where DOOM 1 had the awesome atmospheric levels but DOOM 2 had way more stuff due to better tech and felt more complete...

I loved Fallout 3, and still love it now, because despite its obvious flaws and crippling problems, underneath there's good intent. The game has"it." The indescribable thing that games have that make them feel alive. The video game equivalent of a soul. I look at Fallout 4 and just see a money...

But that game also suffers from a butt ugly map, and nothing inbetween important points. There should be a happy medium.
