People who thought it'd be the next DUSK
It's better than dusk
Literally anything is better than fucking Dusk.
FUCKING FUCK YOU MAN FUCKING YOU BENCHOD BITCH BASTERD
>t. ultrashill chud
FUCK YOU BLOODY
Contrarian morons
self-blind hypocrite
No it isn't not by any measure at all
>after an unspecified disaster in 1986. Those times were dark and terrifying and so is the game.
what did they mean by this
Chernobyl.
hehe poop aesthetic
>hehe poop aesthetic
yeah, no kidding. The end of the game makes you flush yourself down Vladimir Putin's asshole.
I hate that every Quake clone lacks co-op. Either channel everything from the original or don't
I just like the hors gas masks. Also Dave Oshry is a pedophile.
Plz elaborate, how is he a pedo?
ask him about the horse and spider incident and watch how defensive he gets.
i'm not making a twitter account to do that. just say whatever it is you're implying or it didn't happen.
wtf i love dusk now
I enjoyed it 2bh
me
I'm playing it now and enjoying it
Nothing mind blowing or anything but it's fun and clearly a passion project made by a slav autist with a minimum of talent
It's very samey but calling it low effort is dishonest
Anyone that likes boomer shooters and wants more of them. You know you can multiple games, not just replay the same ones over and over again, right?
I loved that final level.

>Commander in Chief arrives
The fight itself wasn't particularly hard or innovative, just dodge projectiles, kill the summons and shoot him until he dies
But the very concept of his first and third stage were ridiculous enough to get a chuckle out of me.
I died once in that fight just because I was laughing like an idiot.
It's not the best joke in the game, in fact I kinda don't like how it suddenly goes all modern era culture references at the last level, but just the series of events alone got me.
Gotwald was far more clever and generally a better joke as a final boss but I did like how they stepped up the spectacle for the ending.
The second episode boss is the weakest, the Husák-blimp. I think I had more fun cleaning up after the bossfight than in the fight itself.
The level leading up to it was fucking amazing though.
most boomers move onto mods.
many of which are far better than HROT.
am I crazy or is episode 2 really boring?
3 was great, worth the price of admission alone, but the only time I felt a flicker of joy in 2 was when they give you the vaccuum after you beat the final boss.
>many of which are far better than HROT.
name some (you won't)
there's something profoundly embarrassing about whiney russians.
>there's something profoundly embarrassing about whiney russians.
are they in the thread with you right now, anon? or do you think anyone who doesn't suck the garden gnome zelensky's dick is a russian? tell me why it makes sense to put [current year politics] in a game specifically set in 1980s Czechoslovakia.
>are they in the thread with you right now, anon?
yeah, you're one of them.
not russian, just not a garden gnome-worshipping chud like yourself
>am I crazy or is episode 2 really boring?
I like it least of the three, but I think there is a couple of banger levels. I really like Točník, Velhartice and Ratibořice, the Babička fight is one of my favorite moments in all of the game.
>there's something profoundly embarrassing about whiney russians.
It's far more likely just an Alt-right kid, who are mostly american.
>should I get cultic, bros
It's really short and has some issues with ballance and difficulty. Plus the art style does not fit well with a lot of people.
Personally I loved it though, it has some of the most satisfying combat I've seen in these games, and generally very careful design. The weapons are absurdly satisfying and the gore is fantastic, it adds a lot to the experience.
It's a very "quality over quantity" type of experience, essentially every single level has multiple memorable gimmicks, moments or fights, it's constantly thowing some new at you.
>It's far more likely just an Alt-right kid, who are mostly american.
>it's alt-right to think it's stupid to put modern politics into a game set in 1980s Czechoslovakia
you people are deranged, go back to Ganker
>it's alt-right to think it's stupid to put modern politics into a game set in 1980s Czechoslovakia
It's far more stupid to put modern politics into a Ganker thread, but here we are.
>It's possible.
Alt-right was formed around russian troll farms and most people in it will literally defend anything as long as they are told it's the edgy and contrarian stance.
Plus most of them are american children that could LITERALLY not point out Russia on a map if asked, they have no clue what is going on.
>It's far more stupid to put modern politics into a Ganker thread, but here we are.
>NOOOOOOO YOU CAN'T DISCUSS A VIDEO GAME IF IT HAPPENS TO HAVE MODERN POLITICS SHOVED INTO IT
have a nice day, chud
>It's far more likely just an Alt-right kid
It's possible. Westerners with strong opinions on the ukraine-russia debacle are retarded either way, especially if they're anti-semetic. Both sides love garden gnomes and accuse each other of being evil nazi bigots.
buddy, you're the one seething because a meme version of putin showed up in a video game.
>you're the one seething because a meme version of putin showed up in a video game.
not seething, I made one comment about how it doesn't fit with the game and feels like a stupid ass pull for good boy points, then you and other fellow NAFO chuds got supremely asshurt at someone having that opinion and not cheering and instead of addressing the incongruity of putting putin in a game about 1980s Czechoslovakia you resorted to name-calling.
the fuck is a NAFO?
is it something to do with russians? Even though you swore you totally aren't a malding russian?
you're spiraling.
NAFO is the "north atlantic fellas organization" a group of pro-ukraine chuds who do nothing but scour the internet to attack people that don't express worship of ukraine, zelensky or western globohomo.
kinda like how you are acting in this thread.. curious
>I'm totally not russian but also the anti-russian internet army is totally coming after me
meds
screaming and crying over a video game where Putin rides a pterodactyl is pathetic, no matter what country you are from
>alt-right was formed around russian troll farms
I see you're a retard too.
The alt right came from american mass media lying about several high profile cases. Remember Trayvon Martin?
>name some
arcane dimentions alone mogs it completely.
there are dozens of megawads, like valiant, alien vendetta, ancient aliens, alien vendetta (misri halek is fucking amazing), stuggle, eviternity, going down, overboard.
and don't even get me started with deathwish.
my man, im a zoomer and its not even close, anything else is cap.
I've played a lot of those mods, and aside from a few of them that devolve into slaughter maps later, they're fine, but not necessarily better than Hrot.
>anything else is cap.
what the fuck does this mean
HROT's combat is really lacking and combat and level design are why i play boomershooters, and HROT is mid in both departments IMO (its main draw are the intractables and references, which are admittedly cool as fuck), its easy even on very hard and im sick (so my reflexes are degraded).
cap is just zoomer speak for lying/coping, im just being playful by using it, its not serious.
I'll agree with this, even though I liked the game.
Weapons not having an alt-fire to change things a bit is weird and one of the reasons I never noticed that Wine bottles can be thrown as molotovs with RClicking until almost finishing the game.
Explosives are also weird since the Hussar Hand Cannon is just grenades but in a straight line instead of bouncing and the mines require meta knowledge of the map to know when to use them.
The shotgun is probably a good example as well since you have the classic choice between a fast firing weaker shotgun or the slower firing but more damaging and ammo consuming shotgun. Games usually give you these 2 and then pack a level with a mixture of many weak and fast enemies with a few tankier ones and you're suppose to alternate between both depending on what's currently in front of you.
However, the double barreled shotgun just made more sense to pretty much everything and it's not like ammo was scarce enough to justify switching to the other when dealing with dogs and the like.
There's also the kick which is a great move but you can't kick and shoot at the same time so you can't do fancy shit like a close range shotgun blast and a kick to create distance without taking some damage in the cooldown between both moves.
WADs always have the problem that they are essentially the same game but in different maps. It's cool because you get more of the same gameplay you like but somewhere else, however you're still playing the same game anyway.
Sometimes it's cool to try something different because even if it's not as good, at least it's new.
I have to wonder why do most quakedoom fans think they are qualified to compared boomer shooters when they admit they only ever play their own game. You have a single experience to compare anything to and even then, you'll compare trailers and screenshots to it, you won't even bother to try those games.
It's a twitter meme mirroring NATO but with shitposting supposedly to boost morale. It's as funny as it is cringe.
>I'm not seething
>I'm just using wild exagerations and expressions that evoke rage and anger while demanding that you commit suicide for having a different opinion
Go back to 4chan, please.
Putin as a final boss feels like a shitpost and it's tacky, but that's all that is. A giant fucking meme. That's why he arrives mounted on a bear and later on a pterodactyl. You're taking this more seriously than the author or anyone else that played it ever did.
>>I'm just using wild exagerations and expressions that evoke rage and anger while demanding that you commit suicide for having a different opinion
I didn't tell anyone to commit suicide until they started screeching at me for thinking having putin as the final boss was retarded. no one has yet to actually address my opinion itself, just attack me for daring to have it. typical chud behavior
>WADs always have the problem that they are essentially the same game but in different maps
>Sometimes it's cool to try something different because even if it's not as good, at least it's new.
don't worry, i 100% get you, it's why i still buy boomershooters, although i may complain about subjective shortcomings, it comes from a place of love and wanting it to be better, also alot of great mods add enemy types which Hispanice it up well.
>I have to wonder why do most quakedoom fans think they are qualified to compared boomer shooters when they admit they only ever play their own game.

i don't know why this applies to me, it sucks that some rush to conclusions, but i played the game.

it just felt shoehorned in and didn't really fit with the rest of the game, why not use chernenko or gorbachev? or even a resurrected stalin in a mech (like wolf3d) or something more in line with the rest of the game... PUTIN has NOTHING to do with Czechoslovakia
>screaming and crying over a video game where Putin rides a pterodactyl is pathetic, no matter what country you are from
no one was screaming and crying over a video game, I was screaming at you gays who couldn't imagine someone thinking it was stupid as fuck "lol XD so randumb!!!" type [current year] reddit humour
>no one was screaming and crying over a video game
you are
>it just felt shoehorned in and didn't really fit with the rest of the game
i would have prefered mecha lenin but bear putin isn't that different
i played it, its alright, but has a few big blunders
>small levels (the creators loves 60 enemies per level for some reason, never going into 100)
>too easy (the only issue are the enemies hit like a truck and ammo is sometimes scarce, but even on very hard its fundamentally easy)
>buggy (at least on linux)
massive 7/10.
>quake but even lower effort
>Implying Quake was low effort
Agreed. I enjoyed it for a little bit but the bland aesthetic and terrible level design made me uninstall. It's no DUSK, and it sure as fuck is no Quake.
I thought it was pretty good, if a little tough near the middle because of an almost unreasonably low amount of health pickups. I'm not sure if it's better or worse than dusk though, I certainly got lost in this one more than I did in dusk.
I think that as a game it's weaker than Dusk which just has a lot more stuff - greater enemy variety, more creative levels, bigger and more intricate encounter design, more polish overal, more variety in level gimmicks, assets, and a more interesting movement.
HROT is still mechanically a very simple game with comparatively more basic level design, smaller encounters end so on.
But subjectively I enjoy HROT more, because I fucking love the atmosphere and the humor. It's such a beautiful dive into one mad man's mind and being from the same country, I can relate to so many of his jokes, jabs, references and sentiments.
I'd recommend Dusk first to most people, because the stuff I like most about HROT is shit that will likely get lost in translation, but I sure as hell will replay HROT a lot more than Dusk myself.
Any water will do if you're stuck in a desert.
Are you implying there is a draught in the retro shooter genre? Because I sure as hell don't feel that way.
i feel like im drowning in boomershooters and mods, and shooters are all i play.
>hey lets make the final boss of this game set in the 80s and Czechoslovakia.... la PUTLER
2nd half of ep3 is dogshit and the dev just HAD to throw the entire premise of the game out for NAFO gudgoi points
I like the atmosphere and exploration in this game but the shooting is fairly boring.
should I get cultic, bros
have you played the demo? The game doesn't change much from it aside from a couple new enemies and weapons
yes it's kino just don't expect it to play like blood because of the cultist aspects
>game bad
Don't care. All I want to do is shoot pixels and search keys.
the epilogue gave me the warm fuzzies
I played through it the past few days. It's aggressively ok. The limited color palette is boring. I get the intention, but three episodes of it is lame. Most of the enemies are quake ripoffs, and there isn't enough variety so it gets very repetitive. Enemy sounds were laughable. That's one thing Dusk got really right.
I will say despite heavy "find the key" based gameplay, the levels flowed pretty well and did a good job of telling you where to go. I never used the map and rarely got lost.
OP puši kurac
I don't like old 3D
This prolly isn't the thread for you my guy.
The reviews are overwhelmingly positive on steam
and this is why putler is the final boss, easy appeal to butthurt belters
Does he wear a mecha suit?
Aah, thanks!
Personally I'm waiting for the 75% off GOG release.
>low effort
game is pure autism
SOVL
contacting Nintendo ASAP, this is literally just Egg Game & Watch, right down to the wolf character and screen layout..
i know it's game and watch but it's supposed to be a soviet bootleg version with their own wolf character, nu pogodi, which is like soviet tom and jerry, leftists were already seething about it earlier this year because it was in that other sovietpunk game
>naming your game HR(O)T
why can't trannies ever shut up
any of you get motion sick playing it?
raise the FOV, just know the slider is backwards.
though i wish it went up to 120-150 and not 110.

More like Hrot piece of shit, amirite fellas?
