I'm not not necessarily saying its better, I'm saying it's a solid modernization of the original games' tone in the context that they were tongue and cheek action games. That's how I interpreted them and apparently the folks currently at Id feel the same way. Both are equally ridiculous and...

Just because something offends christians doesn't make it serious considering the nonsense those people take seriously. Everything about Doom (and the original Wolfenstein) was incredibly tongue and cheek. Doom 4 understood this. Doom 4 has a myriad of other problems, but its tone isn't one of them.

I'm not looking back on them as silly, I've always thought they were silly even at the time of their release. The midi metal soundtrack, The imagery, the gameplay, all of that screamed tongue and cheek to me. If we were talking about the original Alone in the Dark, I could see that, but Doom's a...

I entirely disagree here. I have been playing Doom since it's inception and I have never once considered them serious games. A big part of Doom 3's failure is it tried to be serious. The folks at Id bumped their heads and thought they were making System Shock.

The Marvel Netflix stuff is far superior to its cinematic counterpart. I would rather watch Luke Cage or Iron Fist over the Civil War clusterfuck and Iron Man with magic any day of the week. Wonder Woman has a really solid second act but the rest of the film is trash.

Been playing Paper Sorcerer and MiniLAW.

It's adorable that you clearly know how to do a google image search, but you should probably actually watch The Road Warrior because it's very much a western. George Miller was quite deliberate in that. Also a good portion of the quests throughout the entire series derive their structure from A...

Apparently Brycen's never seen The Road Warrior.

Way too much slow mo is my issue with the beach scene and everything leading up to that scene was a chore to me. I agree the hatewagon for Snyder is a popular cop out, and I don't exactly hate his films. I think Man of Steel is fine, but with the reception of his films and the overtly positive...

Which is a valid criticism. I never said he directed it, but it does follow his visual style specifically during his 300 and Watchmen years. It's fairly clear where Jenkins took her inspirations from. I'll give credit where credit is due, The No Man's Land sequence was great and touched on the...

It looked painfully dated. I don't know if WB skimped on the VFX money, but I felt like I was watching a movie from 10 years ago especially with the fight with Ares. The action part of this action movie was easily the worst element of it. It's one of the only films I've seen in recently where I...

I saw it and it still felt like a Zack Snyder film, it just had an understanding of its characters and a better script, but it's still littered with Zack Snyder's visual style.

If you like System Shock, there's the new Prey. It's a better spiritual successor to SS than the Bioshock games ever were.

Judge Dredd: Dredd Vs Death.

Getting the fuck out of Alabama finally...

I find all three of them to be equally egregious, the Bethesda games are just easier to swallow for the general audience.

This thread seems like another attempt to throw New Vegas under the bus to justify the shittiness of Fallout 3 and 4. I don't think anybody's buying it.

I've always held that the original games and New Vegas don't really have main stories, they have core objectives like you said, the story is what the player does along the way. I think not understanding this core concept plays a huge part in what Bethesda gets wrong about the series.
