This looks really cool, how is it? I'm wary of early access.
There is very little content in there so far but I really liked what's there, great atmosphere and excellent level design especially if you're the type who loves to explore every nook and cranny in LGS and Arkane games. The combat requires a LOT of work though and a lot of stuff just isn't implemented yet.

The "totally not sunken Titanic" are my fav. levels:

The "ice" ones, not so much...

But murdering tibetan monks and rare fauna later is incline:

Unfortunately some secrets are kinda over the top:

And both boss battles can be out-cheesed easily:

Temple of Xian is great puzzle- and mood- wise, but also quite masochistic:

And then - Xen of TR2:

:roll:

Back then some journos complained about "not enough shooting" in TR1. Well, the devs decided to "fix" this by spamming thousands of goons for Lara to mow down...

:decline:

Cheesing in boss battles part 2:

IMO from technical POV the game maybe needs some better textures and that's it. Everything else still looks great.

None of the reboots were able to grasp the atmosphere of first 3 TR games... Goodnight, sweet 90-ies princess.

Verdict:

:3/5: and a half as a classic TR game
:5/5: as a game played in 2022

is that some fight night? I love fight night
why isn't there more fight night?
Yeah, found the first emulator that manages to run Fight Night Round 2 just perfectly. Created Butterbean prototype for this run. I actually love how you develop, get stronger and as you age, no matter how hard you try in training, you still decline slowly and see how you become slower and weaker, even newcomers give you a though challenge. By 40 just clinging with each fight for as long as you can :negative:

There is no Fight Night, but I can't wait for this one https://youtu.be/mKGxKsbCIqU

your Butterbean looks good, I immediately went on cdromance to get my fight night roms
my first and last was Fight Night 3 - loved it more than any other fighting sort of game from then and since, career was ace for larping and playing against my buddy was like a highly sophisticated game of thumb war via a technological proxy lol

FNR2 is pretty much the same, only the third is a bit slower and stamina feels more important. Played the shit out of them both. Playing player against player is intense as fuck. Only guitar hero was as intense as this one. My 6 year old controller might not hold up after the career mode :shredder:

Lots of screenshots from Alien Shooter 2. One of my favorite top down shooters. No bullshit, just hordes of monster to slay in a grimy orgy of gore. I don't think there is any other game where your character develops from a wimpy "top" Sawyer to a ballsy Giga-Terminator. I do miss games that skip bloat and gimmicks. They have to go for the throat with tight gameplay.

Trying the expanded fronts mod. The amount work they put into making new factions is pretty impressive.
It's also includes a phantom menace campaign which crushes for me the moment i try to pick a healing item:negative:
Looks nice, though. Shame about the crashing.

This fight took 30 goddamn minutes, these dudes split every goddamn time you hit them.

But it left a bloody and satisfying aftermath

Couple thoughts after having played this in recent times

-Every SpiderWeb game takes many many hours to finish and spans the course of what... 4-6 games for each series? Similar to Yakuza in that as much as you're compelled to move onto a sequel if you manage to finish it, you're probably burned out by then.
-This dude's ReadMe and help section was actually useful-- when I played this as a youngin I used a traditional party but your starting spell-points are actually based on how many points into priest/mage spells you've alotted at CharGen-- armor isn't particularly useful so it makes sense to dump points into at least 3/3 mage priest at character creation and have everyone wear robes to max spell points, so you don't have to waste points into buffing SP later. I only discovered this from reading his actually useful readme. Manuals should be expected to have useful info but I guess it just took me by surprise
-Just buy every positive trait; early-game it's not like you have the cash to afford training your characters to max anyways. The XP penalty thus doens't matter and most positive traits are super useful (especially the regen perk)
-I have no idea how the breakdown of hit chance/damage works, how efficient spending points in dex vs a weapon school is, for instance. Spells and buffs stack, so it seems to me that dumping points into Assassinate/Luck and having enough spell points to buff your hit chance and damage with Mass Bless and Mass Haste is probably the best route to go but fuck if I know I sure miss a lot when I'm swinging impotently at golems
-Most deaths have come from summoning doom spirals where a monster summons a summon who can summon who can summon. I don't mind it.
-Bretty good writing and the whole game is basically Jeff as your DM. There's something special about the UI and presentation. When you get a pop-up when speaking to a character it feels special, remniscient of talking heads from FO1/FO2. An Iron Broadsword may be no big deal if it drops from a random encounter, but it feels cool to find that same Iron Broadsowrd when you finish an encounter spawned by one of those 'white dots' and you're given some flavor text about pulling a 'particularly nice-looking sword' from the enemy camp, and so on.
-I made myself custom sprites for my characters because I'm a faggot
