Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Is that a "Punisher" game? idk comic book stuff aside from batman.

If someone told me there was a good game based on The Punisher, I wouldn't believe them, but those screenshots look really fun. How is it?
It's a decent third person shooter, and one of the few games that let you dual wield shotguns!!

There's a cool mechanic where you can interrogate baddies by torturing them, then end it with a mercykill. Brutal stuff.

Its "The Punisher" from 2005 by Volition. The Game is decent, one of the better third person action console/pc games, released back in the day when everyone started to make XBOX games that were then horribly ported back to PC. Check also https://rpgcodex.net/forums/threads/max-payne-1-2-discussion.101193/page-7#post-8435896 for a feature list by user Ash.

The controls really are fucked in this one. No remorse difficulty - let's make everything kill you in half a second. I have no idea how are you even supposed to deal with those minigun robots, that are generously spammed everywhere, without abusing weapon drop to replenish ammo for your rocket launcher.

Frankly, you shouldn't be playing Crusader on no remorse/no regret difficulty. Not only does it make the game straight up unfair, it also invalidates the personal shield more or less until you get the ultimate one that can block all damage types.

I've tried loose cannon at first, but I felt like you very quickly reach a "critical mass", an overabundance of equipment, where you are free to do whatever you want and nothing can really threaten you. So I'm doing no remorse now.

Found these two Imperial Legion Foresters fighting out in the wilderness. I thought it may have lead into a quest or at least some dialogue, but apparently not, just Oblivion being jank

They are supposed to be out hunting deer. One of them shot the other while hunting causing the fight. Pretty cool.

A few randoms from Divine Divinity
Still the best game made by Larian.

All graphics created for Heroes of Magic II were hand-painted pixel-by-pixel in Deluxe Paint II Enhanced using a fixed palette of 256 colors. Character animations were also created in this most traditional manner, frame by hand-painted frame, and previewed using Deluxe Animator." - Phelan Sykes
This game still looks good by any standards even after all these years. One of the gold standards as far as pixel graphics go.

For anyone wanting to replay Heroes II, check out: https://github.com/ihhub/fheroes2

It's an open source port that fixes all the graphics and sound issues that the old DOS version has on modern machines. More importantly, it adds a "buy all creatures" button to the well in your town, which is a huge quality of life improvement.
