Wanted this for sooo long now

The fact they added integer scaling and modern controller support is a nice touch too

Great stuff! Konami should put Silent Hill 2 on gog as well along with the community made Enhanced Edition patch

Quoting: PenglingI just gave it a try in my browser, and this is lovely. :grin: It reminds me a little bit of running Dogz in windowed mode, back in the 1990s!

Loved Dogz growing up, actually been playing Petz 4 (catz and dogz combined) lately, had to use VM though even with wine I couldn't get it working right

Quoting: grigiIt's a laudable effort from Canonical to try and harden the linux desktop by using sandboxing as standard.
Just, why do they always have to do the Not-Invented-Here thing all the time.

True, Snap supports more use cases than either Flatpak or oci, but its such a closed ecosystem that nobody else dares adopt it. So it just develops at a slower pace, and gets less testing. And sits with horrible performance for years, etc...

It's basically the reason I tell people to move off Ubuntu as their snapification of everything is really breaking things.

Frustrating that Ubuntu (Means: Working together well) is not working together.

What do your suggest for the people you tell to move off ubuntu?

I'm on ubuntu atm and mostly stuck with ubuntu to keep things as simple as possible for me, I was enjoying linux mint prior to that but don't like how further behind mint is with things like wayland ect

I'm sort of conflicted because tbh I really love valve and like them as a company (most of the time lol)

Can someone more intelligent then a simpleton like myself just assure me.. that they're being very harsh against valve?

There's been drama before about the cut they take to sell games on their platform ect... but as a uk citizen I feel the price of the games they sell are EXACTLY the same as places like gog and epic games?

Maybe on GMG or something you can get a steam key and it's cheaper, but I don't really understand how I'm being overcharged specifically by valve.

Sorry if this post is abit stupid, just abit confused what valve has done wrong compare to any other high profile platform to buy pc games like epic or gog

Quoting: Doktor-MandrakeSo those of you worried this will be like Eternal, it won't be.. and it won't be like 2016 either

They're essentially trying to make it closer to the original doom games

It sounds very promising

Thank you for the link! This specifically ...

"But for long-time fans of the series, people who played the original Doom, you'll see it's really a return to form."

... IS THE BEST NEWS EVER!!!!!!!!!! Oh man, my excitement just shot up for this. Bring. It. On.

Yeah I do like how they aren't afraid to experiment with their formula.. for AAA it's very refreshing to see them think outside the box but still have a big budget title.. every Doom game they have made mixed up the formula and experiments every single time so far

That said, nothing will ever top the original games. I do think they realise that what they make isn't intended to replace the original games but honour them

Honestly I will play the old games until the day I die, especially when the community never stops making amazing new content

I actually would really like to see the modern id software make a smaller budget doom game using something like gzdoom, looking at the things that selaco is doing I think they could make something really special

Quoting: IronownerI look at streets of rage (both of them) and I am so confused. What the hell is this game about? :grin:

I had never looked at the first game but always just assumed it was a Streets of Rage clone lol

I tried gourdlets the other day when I read your article

It was fun to build things but I was expecting more from the ai, they didn't seem to do much apart from weirdly just hanging out in the cemetery

I'll probably try Schim next :smile:

Quoting: Jarmerechoing what others have said here: As long as it's more like the 2016 game and not Eternal: bring it on! Eternal was not a Doom game, it was a silly platforming weapon management sim. The devs completely forgot what was fun about Doom when they made that game.

Just keep it simple! This is Doom we're talking about. Does it really need building size mechs? I'm not sure. I'll wait for some more previews to see if this is even interesting to me at all. Time will tell.

I enjoyed both but prefer eternal over 2016 myself

I find it too easy to cheese in 2016, I'd just spam RL and SSG and win without really putting any thought

The gunplay didn't have the same "oompf" factor either, enemies chunks coming off as you shoot them made a BIG difference in eternal

The trailer for dark ages seems like there's no hook for the ssg, and looked more grounded so maybe it won't be like eternal were you're basically flying around like superman lol
