>why is this game named "Blood" so bloody?

>i dont think i've seen such visceral sprites in 2D games before blood
>didn’t play Splatterhouse
Pathetic.

>>9849574
Play Chiller. Came way earlier.

And this is kind of Blood's gimmick, it's a horror game you know?

>>9849631
Splatterhouse is unironically grosser to look at, yeah, particularly Splatterhouse 3. I'll save the monster dog for if someone has a nice .gif showing its disgusting as fuck attack animation.

>>9849574
When you're a teenager it's the coolest thing ever. Now it's just meh.

Eternal Champions: Challenge from the Dark Side has some incredibly gory "overkills" aka fatalities. Well animated for the most part, too.

I liked Splatterhouse 1 and 2 some damn good gamse. Haven't beat 3 yet the shift to a more traditional beat em up style kind of was lame imo. 1 was clearly the best though.

It was heavily influenced by Evil Dead, which features very cartoonish gore

>>9851482
Splatterhouse 3 is pretty cool in its own way, it's a bit more polished so it doesn't have the same B-Movie grit of the first two, but it's overall pretty nice, gets the whole punching revolting monsters so hard they explode part. It's hard though, if you want a not-bad ending, you gotta floor it, the time limit is not just tight, but deceptive. This was a change after it was released in the west, so consider the Japanese ROM, it's otherwise nearly identical.

One of the things I really like about Splatterhouse 3, besides the music, is that they make Rick Taylor's design more distinct, it's neat to play as a Anti-Jason in the first one, but I like the unique mask they designed for him to make him more his own thing.

>>9851457
That one cowboy mine one...

>>9849574
because the game is an homage to the horror genre. I don't think there's a single game that exists with more SOUL than Blood.

>>9849574
I think Blood manages to stick to a fine line between graphic and silly, like other Build Engine games. Other games are far more detailed in their gore, Blood is a lot tamer. Aside from maybe the melting spritework.

you couldn't get more soulless even if you tried. the only thing you missing is shader

>>9854928
Ah yes classic /vr/ shitpost, why I barely ever come to this useless incel cesspool.

>>9854496
I made that ages ago <3. That was on NBlood.

I was just playing some Fresh Supply, webm related. There's a lot wrong with this port but fuck me it has an excellent mouse feel, none of that input laggy shit like on NBlood (GDX was even worse than NBlood but I haven't tried it in years, maybe it's improved Idk) and no diagonal problems. I asked the EDuke32 devs about the mouse lag for Ion Fury and they said they're aware of it but it wasn't something they were able to remove, apparently it's EDuke32 issue. Too bad. KEX engine ports always have excellent mouse feel. I wish Kaiser would use NBlood as the base and make a new port giving us the best of both worlds but it obviously won't happen.

>>9855154
>excellent mouse feel
BMOUSE.EXE has excellent mouse feel too... and fixes mouse lag in all build engine games on dos. but using mouse in these single player games is kinda cringe imho, unless you playing actual death match with people

>>9855154
>he still uses 4chan words
ngmi

>>9855232
Lol DOSBox with BMouse feels like total turd. Btw when I used to play DOS Blood I didn't even use BMouse. There's no way I'm going back to that though, you do you though for whatever anonymous cred you're looking for.

>>9855338
>>he still uses 4chan words
>ngmi
Special kind of retard here.

Anyway I'm out again. Awful board as always, you wizards are exactly as I left you.

>>9855525
See you soon, sugartits. You'll miss us.

>>9853959
nearly all shooters released in that period are just pure kino.

Don´t forget games suck as Redneck Rampage, Shadow Warrior, Duke 3D... all these game at terrific atmospheres and vibes.

With all its photorealism and fancy graphics, nothing even comes close to the games.

Currently playing Max Payne... man, the vibe in that game.

Modern gaming is utter shit. I mean it.

>>9855641
There have been some good indie games lately but you're not wrong by a long shot. Speaking of Blood though I really enjoyed Cultic. Was it as good as blood? Nah, but it's still super fun. If it gets multiplayer that shit will be amazing.

>>9855525
close the door with ya and never come back

>>9854496
>>9855154
dam sun that's some serious skillz

>>9855154
>Incel cesspool
Then fuck off back to Redit you retarded nigger faggot

Some say Blood was inspired by a sex reassignment surgeries, Blood 2 is all about neovaginas though and clearly no amount of patches could save it.

Truly ahead of its time.

>>9855154
he's right, it's absolutely tasteless aesthetically

>>9851457
Shit, this game wasn't playing around. I don't remember the Genesis one being anything near this wild. They really went for it. The mineshaft kill is comically brutal.

>>9856381
Doesn't Gabriel turn into a tranny in Blood 2?

>>9854928
>>widescreen
So?
>>no classic ui
So? That same HUD is also in the original you fucking idiot.
>>high refresh rate
So?
>>high fov
Nope, that's the same FOV just with with widescreen ratio.
>>high resolution
So?
>>vertical aim
So? The original had it too.
>>full mouse look
So? Original had it too.
>>no BMOUSE.EXE patch
So why are you complaining about mouselook when BMouse improved it in the original? Why would you need BMouse when the modern ports improve the mouselook and its thus not needed. Are you an actual retard anon?

>>9856478
Anon that's Blood, not your ugly fucking revolting face.

It wasn't for the genesis/MD. I thought I recgonised some of these (the water one especially)
https://youtu.be/CxdrHQOHsEE
they evidently upped the gore for the CD, probably to increase sales and compete with mortal kombat

>>9856717
>>subjective opinions everywhere.
Looks good to me, faggot.

>>9856801
i'm aware, your opinion is just tasteless, that's all

>>9854496
Aim assist on for hitscans only or projectiles as well?

https://youtu.be/axqRgDkWXA0
This game was intense, lads

I am just reading every comment with civvie's voice and its pissing me off

>>9856509
>>9856736
Eternal Champions was on Genesis/MD for two years before the SCD version released as a sort of upgraded version of the game. If the upgraded version had been released from the start, it's possible Eternal Champions and the SCD could have performed better. It plays well, but good luck finding anyone knowledgable of the movesets let alone willing to play an obscure fighting game.

>>9849574
Why aren't games today gory and disgusting. DeadIsland 2 is the first time in a long time to have good gore and the rest of the game sucks.

>>9857469
Scorn tried to cover this niche last year, but somewhat fell flat due to time constraints.

I used to rent SplatterHouse 3 all the time. Never owned it. I got lucky a couple of weeks ago and scored one for fifty bucks. Just took the cartridge apart last night and verified it's authentic. Didn't realize this game's PCB was so unique. There are DIP packages for this game. The chips are mounted directly onto the PCB.

>>9857504
Yea, I've just started to notice that game. Been trying to download it for the past couple days. Just got the end of Choo Choo Charlie. Glad I didn't bother paying for that one.

>>9853959
How does a single voodoo doll cause damage to whatever you're facing? That isn't how voodoo dolls work.

>>9857543
>There are NO* DIP packages for this game.

>>9857548
Well, yeah normally they don't work. This being a video game inside an imaginary setting gave them some freedom to change it up a bit.

unrelated to the gore discussion but i fucking love blood man, its such a damn good game and i wish it got more attention. hard to believe we dont get games like blood or any other build game anymore

So with the source code leaked will we finally get a proper source port of blood instead of the decently accurate yet reverse engineered ones we have now?

>>9849574
Back in those days people saw all the pearl-clutching over Mortal Kombat and Doom. Developers hopped on the bandwagon, trying to outdo each other by making the most gruesome, edgiest game on the market.

>>9858416
when did the source leak?

>>9858463
back in january. it's not the final build but close enough iirc

Did that schitzo who rants about how Western games are gruesome and ugly compared to beautiful Nipponese games stop by this thread?
