Hey /vr/

can we talk about how awesome Descent: Destination Saturn is?

I liked Descent 2 better. It wasn't restricted to that weird 18fps

Shitty pc game. Go play some ROTT instead or Brutal Doom

The multiplayer was actually fun, but the game itself was boring as fuck

Yeah, I guess it's awesome, because the 30+ levels of same gameplay gets pretty boring around level 8-9, and becomes a chore to beat. 15 levels sounds about just right.

What's Destination Saturn?

>> No.1561548

Is there a way to play Descent on a 3D monitor? I read the original was anaglyphic.
Or is it better to wait for a Oculus Rift version for maximum nausea?

I don't remember that, but now we have source ports to make that difference moot anyway.

I think I still prefer Descent 2 overall, it wasn't as ruthlessly unforgiving as Descent 1 was on the harder difficulties (pic related does not appear, for example) and the levels were a little more varied. Those bosses were fucking nutso, though.

It was the original subtitle. I was left out from the title screen though

If you have a 3D vision display, get D1X rebirth and get a OpenGL to D3D wrapper.


I've been playing it like that and it looks excellent. Better than most modern 3D games.

Sounds more like it was some gimped version of the game packaged with graphics cards.
