/vr/ - Retro Games

playing the doom games for the first time

Playing Doom 2 now, and I have to say Doom 1 was much better. The reason being that in Doom 1, it was more "run, gun, try to survive, enemy placement, OH YOU PRESSED THAT BUTTON? WHOOPS THE WALLS ARE GONE GET PASSED THIS PUSSY!"

Doom 2: 30 minutes walking empty halls of corpses whining out loud "WHERE DO I GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?! UGGGHHHH"

less shootan, more puzzly/labyrinth shit = not very "doom"-like of the overall style of things in my personal opinion

then again I'm a newfag to Doom, so what do I know?

I played BG 1 a few times, and I've said it once and I'll say it again:

fuck games that pigeonhole you for balanced parties. I couldn't even leave the goddamn town without getting raped because I tried playing a thief.

Then someone on /v/ tells me playing a thief is a bad idea, I should have played a strength character.

>game says you can be any class you want

>lies

this shit will not fly

I'll play again but fuck all if I'm going to be a stereotype in my own goddamn rpg. I figured Bioware played tabletop rpgs, I didn't know it was the generic "balanced party 1-sword 1-bow 1-mage 1-healer" variety. Fuck that noise.
