It's the GOG version, it runs on ScummVM.
Thanks a lot! I just got latest ScummVM version, and it swallowed the image of my old game's copy perfectly, zero issues whatsoever. What a great game.

I didn't notice before that widow in waiting and female announcer both has Raven's voice (from Arcanum), it was an unexpected flashback, for sure.

Typical gender "divercity" of a dev team those days :negative:

And to think the engine is 13 years old but still looks and feel great to this day.
Particle effects in this game still impress me.

But what I like the most about it are little details.

You can see civilians fleeing combat zone at the start of the mission.

When buildings are destroyed not only rubble falls out of them but various things like tables, chairs, sofas, fridges.

You can see each invidual shell and rocket fired by your units.


You can hear soldiers talking with each other if you zoom in and they talk in their native language.

'Mr Secretary, we have reports of Yankee forces moving into western Texas.'

'We must stop them! Give General Polk Lee's entire Virginia army and send it across the country and link up with Forrest and his Pimas Indian raiders.'

History larping has its limits.

I liked this one the most from the Fire Emblems I've played so far (3-5 for Snes and 6 for GBA). Much more interesting mission / map design, less bullshit than in Thracia (no shops, fatigue) + it's still quite challenging (weapon triangle is more important now).

Requirements for the best ending were maybe a little bit over the top, but whatever.

It's like this photorealism barrier thing DraQ was talking about.
The remaining (big?) step is real time raytracing, but it might turn out to not be as big in most cases because everyone has meanwhile learned to convincingly fake realistic lighting.

There's some lag with map scrolling, but once the graphics load up in cache it gets much better. Plus the fully patched up game has some memory fixes. I've got a middle of the road PC and it runs fine.

I believe him now to be more than a man. He is... DOOM™ Eternal©: Deluxe Edition.

And these are from Guild Wars 2. My guardian (main), warrior (co-main), necromancer (co-main), engineer, thief and ranger respectively:

Epic tale of young transdimensional traveller Ellie and her pet alien Chomp.

Except of our heroine, who can shoot her magical bracelet and smash evil dudes with her Gucci purse...
And get new skills, like every self-respecting metroidvania heroine should:

We also control our alien friend. Who can stay in its room (2nd scren) and recover energy / play with shit to support Ellie / increase itz stats:

But mostly can be used as additional attacker / supporter (it can do much more than usual familiar):

BRO has its own active and passive skills, can level up and evolve into different forms:

So it looks like our alien shopkeeper may be right:

And our antagonists seem truly evil:

Kid Kings? Sounds like a bunch of bad motherfuckers...

:yeah:

Verdict: most likely much better than new Doom...

Turn off the garbage music, put some Synthwave and enjoy. It's easily my fav. NFS since Underground 2. To be honest my fav. NFS period, I just love the aesthetic & the driving physics. This is the closest you are ever going to get to a AAA OUTRUN game, savor it!
Also, here is a link to my Reshade if anyone cares.
