So why do a lot of throwback shooters (stuff like Dusk and Amid Evil) avoid using hitscanners in their enemy rosters?

All this blood talk reminded of that time I said geroxe cruo out loud on a staircase thinking I was alone. Didn't see the guy walking RIGHT in front of me, not even a foot away because my glasses got fogged up. He actually stopped. At least I didn't shout. I kept saying other cultist phrases and words, like marana to "own" it, but I was embarrassed.

I really like the detail of the sword being sheathed when it's not equipped, I don't know why

MARANAX INFIRMUX

Why do you guys like doom? Why do you like/dislike modern doomclones like Dusk? I'm genuinely curious as a zoomer who is terrible at these games.

>design the best hitscanning enemies in a FPS
>make the rest of the enemies okay to just shitty
How did monolith do it?

ah ok

I find it odd that the ttlg threads linked for recommendations stop at 2014, I'm pretty sure some worthwhile stuff has come out since then
I dunno, you got any cool stuff that has come out recently? patriot seems interesting since it looks like a full fledged campaing like T2X

>But one thing I do find really odd about them is how inflated their scores are on Steam. Dusk, Ion Maiden, Amid Evil all have Overwhelmingly Positive Steam scores
I think this is not a big mystery. The grand majority of people who bought them probably never would bother setting up a sourceport and playing Doom/Quake/etc, even if it's a very simple process. So playing nu-retro games is the next best thing. So their overwhelmingly positive scores are not *just* for the game they're reviewing in question, but also the baggage of the actual retro games it's based on that they remember from their childhood / or that they never got around to playing but know are "cool".

I'm not saying this is a bad thing, I liked DUSK. I'm just saying I think it's easy to explain if you take nostalgia and peoples' laziness into account.
