Emulators have reignited my interest in gaming. So many modded games and newly translated classics. Bujingai for PS2 is a really interesting platformer and playing the Shinobi games as well.
Yeah, it looks like a glove, but maybe it supposed to be skin folding when you hold gun on the belt/stomach level? The skin will fold similarly if you do.
One of the first “aha” design moments I ever got was the Doom plasma gun. There was a kid’s toy version of the American M-60 Light Machine gun that I had. The back half was pretty cool on its own, the typical thumper machanism to make noise, but it also had secondary triggers in the stock and a little gear that would advance a belt of soft plastic ammo. Didn’t do anything except move, but the effect was cool.
The front actually came off, and was a pretty decent quality suction-dart shooter. However, if you turned it around and used the the mating surface as the “muzzle…” BOOM! (or “ZAP” I guess… lol) Doom plasma gun, down to the exact number of ridges.
It doesn’t help that 10 seconds into punching rocks for resources, a swarm of flying hunter bots shows up to try and kill you so now you’re running with 2% of the fuel you need
Last time me and a buddy played we triggered enemies on a corrupted planet to earn parts to reclaim a sentient ship, but it was bugged so the enemies included corrupted and regular enemies and the ship at the end was 2 ships glitching into each other as they occupied the same location (one for each player).
I played a lot of Elite, and tried No Man’s Sky recently. I get why somebody might like it, perhaps even more. It’s more fun. But perhaps a bit too “colorful” for me. I enjoyed the realistic touch of Elite.
But I cannot tell myself that yet another grind is what I need in my life.
It is definitely great for what it is, and I do jump in every new update. Plus, it’s one of those games I can just throw on when I’m not feeling a particular type of game to play, and it usually does help me get in the gaming mood. :)
