Y'all you gotta read this post from 1997 about how Quake and real 3D graphics ruined FPS games forever

New Game Bad, Old Game Good
www.doom2.net/doom2/resear...
Doom2's gameplay superiority over Quake1 Xenos, 1997 (Trimmed to fit character limit) I will venture here a heretical opinion: Changing a game like Doom/Doom2 to a true 3D engine is bound to make the gameplay worse. Why is that? In deathmatch, depending upon looking up and down will complicate things too much until a better way of controling the freelook than the mouse is invented and becomes widespread. In real life, 3D space doesn't present any challenge since we all have side vision, but there is no such thing in computer games, where the field of vision is restricted with the monitor frame. The 2D maps of Doom/Doom2 blend in with the limited vision angle perfectly, allowing the player to forget all about the controls and move freely, making the illusion of life even more complete. Adding an extra dimension makes it harder for a player to adjust to a new level, harder to control the game, and so much easier to lose the other player. In true 3D worlds, camping will rule. If a camper takes a drop on you from somewhere above you, no amount of skill will allow you to retaliate with the necessary speed and precision. It is NOT what imitates real life that people are looking for in these games. What they are looking for is an alternative that is just as interesting to explore, an alternative that forces a player to develop new abilities that are just as hard to perfect as any real-life skill. The movement bugs in Doom -- the strafe-run and the wall-run -- have given it such a sweet personality. Are they anywhere near real life? No, they are not. But take them away, and Doom will instantly lose a huge chunk of its charm. (More in link)

Don't worry, the Chaotix are on the case
Vector the crocodile looking confident, smiling with a hand on his chin, saying: "Yes, as a seasoned detective, I understand the situation completely." In a second panel, Vector is leaning down, whisper to a lounding Sonic the Hedgehog and saying: "what the fuck is going on?"

Okay bear with me. My amazing friend Robyn (@haykebyr.bsky.social) did this amazing image based on my stupid ass joke. It's Miss Piggy photoshopped into some Sister of Battle armour, with the white bob haircut and a fleur de lys tattoo on her cheek and everything. Except she's got pink satin gloves on. The caption is "In the Grim Darkness of the Far Future there is Only Moi" because that's the whole joke. Thank you.

I wish I had any inkling as to why xrd hurts me in the specific way of "wow I sure do feel fucking useless and nothing I do works and I fuck up everything so easily and I have no reason to even be playing this game"

this is now the 8th time Xrd has gotten me like this and idk if it's good or bad

Truly insane how much heavy lifting Aleks Le did to make this character appeal to the Street Fighter audience

On this day 4 years ago, "Shining Star" Luke was released as a DLC playable character for Street Fighter V: Champion Edition. Distributed as the final character for the game's 5th season pass, Luke was the last post-launch character added to Street Fighter V.

Britain never did grow out of oppressing the Irish because the country generally feels like it *should* own us regardless of all that pesky war of independence stuff

This is madness.

All books by Normal People and Conversations with Friends author Sally Rooney set to be withdrawn from sale.

The 34-year-old Irish author says: “The disappearance of my work from bookshops would mark a truly extreme incursion by the state into the realm of artistic expression.”
Sally Rooney books may be withdrawn from UK sale over Palestine Action ban, court told
Rooney has said she intended to use royalties from her work "to go on supporting Palestine Action."

people keep asking "why doesn't he just cross over to the other side?" so i have used technology to extend the image
On a long tree branch, a monkey wearing a tuxedo, tophat and monocle is proudly saying "I am billionaire monkey. I own this side of the tree." Next to him is a monkey wearing a cop uniform and aviators pointing a gun, who says "I am cop monkey. I will shoot worker monkey if he tries to cross." At the end of the branch is a monkey who is sawing the branch and saying "Wow technology is amazing."

The Tories are named for an Irish word, 'Toraidhe'/'Tóraí' meaning highwayman, or robber.
So we could help you out again by renaming UK Labour the "Sleeveens" from 'Slíbhín', meaning conman, honourless person or habitual liar.
