Who is excited or backing up the new kickstarter project of John Romero? Blackroom? The new oldschool arena shooter? Well I am in :) nostalgia got me there ... #quake3arena #unrealtournament2004 #tearofhappines #iknowthathashtagsareforfagsbutitisajoke
>>
And what is your opinion on the most recent Arena Shooter games such as Quake Live (2014 on steam, but it is older I know) or for example Toxikk?
>>
I am also thinking about purchasing complete Quake and Unreal series on steam when they will be in discount... Are you still playing them? What about current community? :) please discuss :)
>>
john please go

Somewhere right now somebody's shitting on Daikatana, you have to stop them.

Daikatana was an unfinished mess ... I don't see your point :D

Kickstarter makes sense. Its hard to gamedev when you're on minimum wage.
>>
>>335723795
Okay I get it now but still, it wasn't entirely his fault and I believe in his long hair, and in this new project
>>
Hi John
>>
>>335724050
Actually when you see the details on kickstarter, they have got distributors and sponsors but they are not sure if people would want arena shooter nowadays...
Also if you donate more than 29$ you will get digital copy of the game +bonuses related to the money you pay
>>
>>335723734
are there any daikatana mods that turn it into a good game?

or is that impossibru
>>
I'm about to check out his doom maps to see if he's still got it.
Did they show any gameplay during the reveal?
>>
Romero E1 ALL remake is soon.
>>
>>335724326
or you can pay nothing and get the """""finished""""" gamein a steam sale for $2

assuming it ever sees the light of day and isnt total shit

john pls

Honestly speaking, after the D44M SP Stream earlier, I would much rather support Romero's game than Beth-fucks.
The new Doom is literally a linear, cinematic RPG.

Do you remember when you only had to pay for games when they were on the shelves or ready to be downloaded?

Me neither.

>new arena shooter

Why? What is missing? Q3A pretty much perfected the concept, I don't see much room for improvement. And you know damn well some kickstarted indie shit is never going to catch on and will be dead within six months.
>>
>>335728382
>What is missing?

Games with actual, decent single player campaigns. There hasn't been an old school shooter with a proper single player in ages.
>>
>>335728580
Is it really needed? How much running around maze-like maps while point&clicking at monsters can you take?
I'd honestly rather play some well made cinematic shit than another 3d run and gun game at this point.
>>
>>335729003
Then you are a retard with shit tastes. The fact that you call the levels "maze-like" only confirms this.

Did you discover old school shooters last year and have some superiority complex because you liked them? The gameplay has been perfected years ago, there's nothing to improve, nothing to add. It's like demanding a new Arkanoid because what we have is somehow insufficient. The only thing that awaits you is disappointment, or at best more of the same.
>>
>>335730216
>posting floor plans
And even then you can see that each room has a distinct, memorable shape. Describing the levels as "mazelike" is plain insulting to the designers because that's what they wanted to get away from since the early days, and very much succeeded. Also what do you mean "nothing to add"? Are you saying that the genre has no room for interesting weapons like, say, the guns in Blood? Because then you'd just be wrong.

First-person games are a meme genre.

Just look at Five Nights at Freddy's

>>
>>335730717
A room is made up of more than just the textures. Also you're wrong The best levels of Doom were seperated into different sections each with their own textures so that the rooms don't look or feel the same. Look at the first episode of Doom 1, it's mostly set in a samey military base but there are a lot of computer rooms, dark spooky hallways, all sorts of machinery, etc.

It's honestly hilarious that I get more enjoyment out of FREE megawads then 60 dollar "AAA" games.

Seriously, Going Down is better than any big budget game of the past two years.

Any there are hundreds of WADs like Going Down

Q U A K E? DID SOMEBODY SAY QUAKE?

Fuck "perfect". That's exactly the problem with arena shooters, uninspired faggots like you that put games on pedestals. Romero will probably fail, but at least not for lack of trying.

Also QW > VQ3, especially at release when Quake 3 had a shitload of retarded map design decisions.
>>
Quake war lol
not arena shooter
another game.

i wish he did myself. i bet he probably has plans that would probably scare away his target audience so he didn't want to spill the beans before they paid for it
