Friendly reminder that they increased the difficulty since last update

How do you get this secret?

sauce?

Devs on discord

Ok, cool. My main gripe was how easy the game was even on the hardest, but that was on a old old build.

What holy trinity?

I would ask for what discord they use but I'm afraid you're gonna meme me and send me to some gay erp discord.

i think they mean 3d realms published build engine games

Nah, just the 3DRealms discord.
It's the third good build game.

this tweet is beyond drooling retarded.
they are implying
>Duke
>Shadow Warrior
>Ion Maiden
All good and well, but Shadow Warrior was always seen as subpar even by diehard Duke and 3D Realms fans. Meanwhile Blood is considered by many to be the best Build game and one of the most fun fps games of all time. So yeah, if there ever was a trinity, leaving out Blood is a fucking blasphemy.
Furthermore that tweet implies that there will be no Ion Maiden sequel - they are basically jinxing their own game, expecting it not to be successful.

Shelly's big peepee.

Pretty sure they mean 3DRealms trio not Build games in general

Tried demo and couldn't beat the boss that fired grenades everywhere. Also it has no proper controller support. So refunded.

>It's the third good build game.
So Blood, Ion Maiden and Duke Nukem 3D? Gotcha!

Pretty sure they're implying Dusk, Amid Evil and Ion Maiden

>controller support
>shitter
Nice bait, you almost got me

again, you can not talk about a holy trinity if the general concensus about one of your games is "it's okay I guess"
also Ion Maiden has yet to prove itself. I genuinely hope it's good.

I’m really fucking excited for it. Replayed Duke and Blood this year.
Preview campaign was fantastic so I really am looking forward to this shit.

but, yeah, that choice is extremely odd for a retro shooter. rocket launchers have de facto been a standard in fps games since the first Doom up to Crysis. there is something extremely satisfying about firing a rocket and, see it hit the target, causing maximum carnage.

You have to actually be 12 years old to think this is true.

What difficulty are you guys going to play the game on for your first playthrough?

I played like 7 hours of the preview campaign and I’ve played a lot of duke and blood. I think I’ll have to play on Ultra Viscera.

i understand that it just surprised me for how well I thought they marketed it and how much hype i saw for it

>Only 4 weapons per playthrough and the most overdone switchunting ever

Attached: Ion_Madden_Football.png (1200x800, 1.13M)

heretic, hexen and strife were made before the doom modding community was properly born, so they don't count

Mapping WASD to a controller is less than ideal though.

If it's better than Shadow Warrior and approaches the levels of brilliance and comfyness of Duke 3D and Blood I will be very happy.
I honestly could not care less about some arbitrary score number by a modern video game blogging 'journalist' who doesn't even like video games, but is stuck writing about them because he failed at life and got rejected by every professional journalistic outlet. So now he is using video games as a substitute to vent his frustration about his dead end life choice by trying to hijack the medium with bullshit politics and social issues ramblings

>photo-of-little-anime-girl.jpg
>rant about le sjw
Every time, lmao
That said the level design in the preview campaign easily rival duke and beats out blood

It doesn't matter when the game only supports 8 directions to begin with. Steam lets you map a slight press and full press of a stick independently, so you can have the walk key activate when you're not fully tilting the stick.

This is a terrible argument, especially so in Strife's case which came out like a few weeks before Quake. You're also ignoring shit like Hacx, a product that released in 1997, unaffiliated with id Software. Not to mention the myriad shitty WAD collections you could go out and purchase.

see I'll play it on normal, maybe hard, but not very hard.

I'm not ranting about sjw you doofus, I'm ranting about modern video game bloggers who clearly hate the field they are working in and are trying to bring and shove their personal world views into video games culture and discussion, trying to berate people and tell them how to feel, what to think and like or dislike

Blood has the most fun gameplay though. So I can forgive its rocky level design. Plus I love the art design of that game.

Dukes first episode is by far and away the best thing ever created on the build engine. Episode 2 was ambitious but ultimately fell flat with the exception of 2 really fucking great levels. Episode 3 and 4 are as rocky and inconsistent as Blood is, if not more.

Yeah, sticks suck ass. But many people are fine with it. It's not as detrimental as aiming with stick only that requires auto-aim crutch to work at all. Also, if you're really autistic about that you can just map movement to buttons lmao. Or even touchpad

Selling Doom mods has been possible since the source was officially relicensed under GPL in 1999. It was arguably possible to do legally even earlier depending on how precisely you developed and distributed your mod.

I don’t agree at all. I do not feel like the shadow warrior weapons come close to duke or blood. Plus I hate the aesthetic of the game and lo wang is obnoxiously unfunny to the point where he irritates me.

Hate is a strong word. I don't hate it, but I don't like it either and I'm saying it as a huge asianboo who grew up with anime, wuxia and Jackie Chan shit. It's just mediocre all around, from weapons to enemies and level design. It has no moments of brilliance, no high peaks like Duke and Blood for example. Yet it's not bad enough to dislike it. This is my biggest fear and my strongest hope at the same time for Ion Maiden.
I fear it will end up mediocre and generic like Shadow Warrior, never making you go "holy shit this is awesome", never pleasently surprising you or making you deeply appreciate what the devs have done - which is what I hope. Hollywood Holocuast is still one of the best first levels in any video game of all time imo.

I recently replayed SW after many years to get myself in the mood for Shelly's game and I just breezed through it without feeling anything. Meanwhile I grinned like a madman while replaying Blood this year.

>Or even touchpad
Tried that. Didn't click for me at all. I see people saying it's better for WASD than a stick but it just weirds me out. Touchpad and gyro for aiming meanwhile felt perfectly natural after like 10 minutes.

What happened to your mod shilling retard?

What hour can we play it?

I’m sorry I asked you to pull your pants down, user

Fair enough, if you feel like that.
I didn't like Duke3d-s weird alien aesthetic style. It felt oppressive but not in a good way. I loved SW much better compared to this.
We made a total conversion in the duke3d engine with my friend a loong time ago. But obviously we could not dig into the source code. Therefore the weapons still feel janky as fuck in it. SW just feels better to me.

Well, modders should've taken advantage of it long ago then. Even with "muh modder honor code" you can still both sell and upload it for free anywhere. Being freeware purist is kinda gay.

Still, how did they forget about this. They've been making the game for like 3 fucking years now. I hated this in SW and DN3D, and here there's even MORE magazine based weapons

>SW just feels better to me.
I could never get the mouse to feel good in SW Redux, no matter what settings I used. I know mouse support in general is kind of wonky in build engine games, but SW is extra bad, like I can actually tell how it skips pixels and it is frustrating as hell.

>says the weapons aren't imaginative/diverse enough
Fug. This was one of my biggest issues with the preview. I thought there was going to be a few more in the final game. I don't get why the nade launcher had to be a separate weapon from the shotgun and why there couldn't be more bomb types (like blood), etc...

Where's the demo? It's not on steam, I need to try it because the last sprite FPS I played (Project Warlock) made me sick.

The only new weapon from the demo is the mine.

None of the episode 3 or 4 maps wasted your time as much as Blood's later levels which are horrendously boring and jam packed with bullet sponge enemies.

The demo is part of the full game, if you bought it you got to play the preview campaign. You can just pirate the preview campaign if you wanna test it.

Good Old Downloads

The whole game seems to be a little unimaginative imo. Shelly is kinda forgettable (from what I've played), the weapons are ok but nothing crazy like Duke's shrinker and the shotgun is kinda disappointing compared to Blood's. The enemies also seem a bit eh, but maybe that's better in the final version

fuck off you blatant shill
green skeleton was right

pirating cause fuck paying for mods

Yeah, that's what I mean. I thought there would be some crazy imaginative sci-fi gizmo, robot gun, or BFG9000 or something. I would even care if they just stole from Half-Life or Perfect Dark.

Apprently a shitload of reviews are already out for it. I had no idea, I don't think I wanna watch them though, I'd rather be surprised by all the new areas and shit.

HAhaha Member the cake is a lie secret and companion cube?

Haha is gamers amirite? They also have the "doge" meme. Classic!!!

Game on the right?

Have you never played a build engine game you dumb zoomer? they're filled to the brim with pop culture references, and Ion Fury is no different, if anything it is way more restrained than the other games were.

Also the Doge meme is pretty funny given that the reference is literally that it is a dead meme. But I guess if you're an autistic cultural warrior that is miserable and hates anything resembling fun, I could see how that made you frantically pull out your cellphone for a quick snap to go into your private cringe compilation.

Literally go eat shit.

Iconic pop cultural references that have stood the test of time.

Not memes that got stale after 2 weeks.

>Iconic pop cultural references that have stood the test of time.
They haven't stood the test of time. And a majority of the references are lazy, literally just regurgitating material from other known things. It worked in Duke because that game was built around a certain raditude of the 90s, but in Blood and SW it feels less inspired, it's not that it's terrible but it's by no means a mark of quality

and again the joke is that it's a fucking dead meme you sperg, that is the joke. Are you going to tell me that "the cake is a lie" isn't an iconic thing to reference? jesus you must be miserable.

I wonder if there's a way to disable the Z-axis and rebalance damage/health around that.

I guess that 3D realms is not your kind of people, makin games you despise.

what makes your dumb zoomzoom brain think that the game won't have cultural references that have "stood the test of time" like the past games? I mean Tech Noir is in the fucking game, and it also has the red room from twin peaks.
It is just more of the same, but because the game is new your brain automatically has to cringe at it, but it was good and based when Duke did it. USE YOUR BRAIN.

Technically over 70% of your favorite games are UT3 mods.

Because Hexen's 12 weapons are far better, more visceral, and more creative than anything in Heretic. Hexen also sports a far better inventory system with items like the Flechettes and Discs of Repulsion, both of which are essentially two brand new weapons for each class given their usefulness and abundance.

the level design isn't doom-2 tier right?

My mom saw my post and wanted me to apologize. I'm sorry.

It's nothing like Doom 2, what are you talking about? It's supposed to be a bigger version of Duke Nukem 3D with a sci-fi setting.

No? The fuck? It's a build engine game not a fucking doom wad

See, Shelly's personality, judging from the preview levels, is suspiciously similar to that of that catgirl from Eradicator, Eyleen, or something like that. Of course, Eradicator gave you choice between characters, but let's be frank, in games with platforming you always choose the fastest character to get yourself more leeway on jumps. So this, well, Eyleen could just as well be a default character, regardless of whether she was the first one in roster. Eyleen was more no-bullshit, Shelly is more crass, whatever.

Second point, the enemy design. Enemies are robots using, by and large, bullet-like weapons, modelled as projectiles. In case of Eradicator that lead to a very fast-paced, Unreal-esque combat. Both games seem to make a point of not having a single filthy hitscanner, correct?

I think Eradicator, among its heaps of weapons, had self-guided missles or bombs too. Didn't use them much, don't remember particulars.

You see, however, this is where differences appear. First. Eradicator not having a single hitscanner had a point. You could play absolutely clean, virtually no damage (other than from sludge sometimes). This point was elucidated by drones which allowed you to save up on ammo (if you used fist as primary weapon) or triple your damage (if you used machinegun) - but only as far as you took no damage, since they went out first, shielding Eyleen. So, you see, they were they to make it perfectly clear you were goddamn supposed to play as cleanly as possible in order to use their bonuses.

Secondly, Eradicator had an interesting gimmick, camera-inside-camera, which was used in various weapons, which was used in on-level puzzles, stuff like that. It was that game's "thing", maybe a bit lame, but quite distinctive.

Third, ah, fuck it, whatever.

Why are you living with your mom?

Duke is sci-fi.

Cant afford my own place

You may joke but Blood is the pinnacle that cannot be reached.

Thats what hapens when you get a Persona waifu voice actress for your female Duke clone

I'd much rather prefer if they gave you a one-shot firing revolver that you can fast fire if you hold RMB, I find that the revolver runs out of ammo too fast before reloading and I almost never use the alt since it takes the fucking control away from me.

Same with the dual-wielded machine pistols, they're great but having to reload them fucks up my momentum. I guess I just want a mod that makes it so you don't have to reload your guns.

Attached: marone.jpg (326x316, 31K)

actually its these plus 24

The cost is the time spent acquiring the target. You will likely take damage if you aren’t really careful.

Actually, no. Third, Eradicator didn't have vertical auto-aim, thus forcing you to use mouse, which was THE BEST GODDAMN MOUSE IMPLEMENTATION IN 90s 2.5D SHOOTERS. I don't think it had zone-specific damage on enemies however.

Ion Fury, in contrast, is the only Build game in which playing with mouse gives you tangible bonuses as opposed to keyboard-only, and that was achieved by means of adding zonal damage (well, you could abuse loverboy altfire, or whatever that thing is called, but by and large you are supposed to manually vertiaim). So, again, a discrepancy, classic Build games were specifically controls-agnostic (adding adequate enough implementation of auto aim, I imagine, took quite a bit of effort), this one is not. With the hypothesis of Eradicator being the main source of inspiration, it clicks into place, however, more or less, it is supposed to be played with a mouse, since its primary source of inspiration was meant to be played with a mouse.

Journos disaggre with you.

LGR is a true nerds nerd you fucking zoomer

Doesn't EDuke have vertical mouse movement?

Already feel kind of underwhelmed by the weapons and items, but I'll see how it goes for the final release.

Is GoG only adding a "no longer in development" full version after release? The only thing that exists in their store is the pre-release version. If they're just going to quietly update what they have that seems like a stupid decision because nobody will notice. If a full release is a new release, it should be among new releases.

It does. But Ion Fury seems to add headshots, and the game sure as hell doesn't auto-aim on THOSE. So, mouse player, get tangible advantage, which was entirely missing from all the previous Build games.

Journos don't play games, they conjure up sensationalist diarrhea in order to appease their masters.

Oh, sorry. "vertical MOUSE MOVEMENT". Reading comprehension.
It does. The game coerces you to use it to dish more damage. Previous Build games didn't coerce you to use mouse, you could just as well abstain from it, dishing the same damage.

>on its original pc hardware from that year and in unpatched state
You do realize that games such as Half-Life and UT are literally superior when played in that state right? The 1998 retail release of Half-Life has a better lighting model in its software and is optimized for the color depth and framerate of 90's CRTs in the hardware. UT uses texture processing that is hardware specific. There are games from the 2000's that don't work at all if you don't have a graphics card sold during the quarter that the game was released. Everything is not solvable with an emulator, a source port or a fan patch.

>Half-Life and UT
>it's him again
Fuck off Clint.

Tomorrow at midnight or some designated release time?

Probably at a designated release time. Just pay attention to Steam and see when the game receives an update. I don't have the game preordered.

it's usually 19:00 over here in yuroland. So 24 hours and 8 minutes.

Just because something is technically flawless and does everything right doesn't mean it will blow you away. IMO 10's should be reserved for timeless masterpieces and personal favorites

Not really. Played Death Wish for the first time last week and it was amazing.

But Ep3 and 4 are my favorites.

Hope this does good and some autists build a Unreal Tournament 2004 knockoff.

This cannot be real

It's not even a review. It's literally just a whiny blog. So sad that people get money from writing dumb shit like this but people here can analyse much better just because they're actual enthusiasts.

I remember playing Duke 3d over and over as a kid. Then one day on the alien ship level, I found a secret door that let you walk to the alien ship you always could see but never could go to. It was entirely a large and secret optional area. I just want shit like that in games again.

What went wrong? How old is the person reviewing this? I remember a time, and not even that long ago, when people actually missed good level design, level design you could get lost in, level design that didn't fucking shove you down a straight corridor, a straight corridor that still had fucking objective markers making absolute certain you didn't get lost.

Like, what happened? why do people not want this now?

The wheel was 10/10 in the stone age. Nostalgia has no objective value and should not contribute with objectively valued integers. Regardless what Wolfenstein 3d did "the first" it's still worse in every measurable way to all of its successors and none of its "influence" is actually a measurable quality within the product itself. My favorite game is Thief 2 but it's not the best game I've ever played because Thief 2 has flaws.

I'm still calling it Ion Maiden, to be fair. I'll sometimes add something like Ion Maiden: 23:58 as well.

I enjoyed it more than pretty much every new game I've played in the last few years, except for Pathologic 2.

I guess timeless wasn't the right word to use since I didn't mean to refer to nostalgia or legacy. I don't think that you should look at rating scales as "objective" since everybody uses them differently. For example, whereas you see a 10/10 to mean technically flawless, I see a 10/10 to be an unforgettable experience so great that it blows me away and allows me to forgive or forget its flaws. Maybe the reviewer see's it that way too. Maybe they had a great experience with it and couldn't find anything wrong with it, but it just didn't have that special something for them to make it stand with whatever other games they consider to be 10/10 experiences.
Since it's hard to gauge how somebody is using a rating scale, I don't think somebody's rating is that valuable unless you are familiar with the reviewer and how they rate other games. It would be nice to have an "objective" rating scale that everybody adheres to, but that's just not how it works for most people

>An engine making it's debut with a blonde haired macho womanizer killing...aliens.

>There's no hitscan
Did we play the same fucking game? Almost all the enemies are shitscan.

When going over the concept designs for Shelly Bombshell, they flat out stated that they wanted to make the ‘Bombshell’ part of her name less about being sexualized and more about how she uses explosives.

Considering that the origins of this character is a cut character from fucking Duke Nukem of all things, saying you don’t want a character with Bombshell in their name to be sexualized comes off as very prudish and SJWish.

This is a big flaw of reviewing ALL games under 1 numbering system. However these fucks usually have a "sports guy" reviewing Madden and shit they should have done the same with this game and scored it with the disclaimer that it's a score judging it on it's merits as a build engine game.

Who am I kidding this actually requires work and is challenging for a "journalist" never mind. Should have just opened the game with the main character saying "Try to grab this pussy, misogynist" and reaped in an easy 10/10.

Jesus. That's a perfectly fine common expression. We though they actually typed the (ugh). You are fake news.

Not him but Ion Fury does not have hitscan enemies and anybody who was played the game even for 10 seconds notices it.

>Modern fans won't like it because it focuses on gameplay

This is actually a very truthful review to be fair. From the perspective of an out of touch modern "gamer"

I'm actually excited for this and think it'll be great, really enjoyed the demo, so take this to heart. No one gives a fuck what modern games journalists think, especially Rock Paper Shotgun.

>William Shatner's Tek War also made a reference to killing a pedophile who owns an island in a stark contrast to today's world with Epstein and Yea Forums, a site we must shut down at all costs

People do. You and me still do. Most of the people in this thread do. Everyone who would consider buying this game does. Some shitty """"""journalist"""""" doesn't know what good level design even IS.

The game will have to prove itself on its own. If it's good, word of mouth will spread like wildfire and reach those who are interested in this kind of game. The rest will ignore it, no matter how good it might be, simply because it's not COD/Battlefield with fancy 2013 graphics.

Will anyone try their hand at mapping for the game? It's launching with tools and scripts and shit to make stuff.

If this was an id game, I'd agree but 3D Realms always had characters that spoke. Part of the charm in Duke and Wang is their one liners. I just want to know if she has anything interesting to say.

Why do source games always start awesome and then just get tedious towards the end? Every source game the 1st chapter is awesome and then everything after that is meh

It's not that much different from Caleb, Lo Wang or Duke, imo. Caleb has plenty of personality for example but most of it comes from FMVs where he just blows shit up with dynamite or fucks retarded cultists for fun.

Do not generalize all players based on some hack game review

fair enough, however, we know that thanks to imbeciles like him, there will be a moment where generalizations will become the norm.

It's true that anything that goes mainstream eventually gets worse, but while it's easy to blame shit on the kids and casuals - I don't fucking remember having shit taste as a kid. Like, I went around when I was 12 and burned CDs just to be able to play JK2.

That user made that shit up you fucking retard, don't take everything you read on here at face value. The review is still pretty fucking bad though.

Yeah fuck exploration and adventure and shit. We'd all rather have quest markers with giant arrows telling us the exact direction to go at all times with giant numbers to the exact foot we are away from the next objective.

Fucking retarded "journalists"

Yeah, Duke, Loo Wang and Caleb are all a stereotype turned up to 300%. If she is some kinda riot cop I really would have wished that they made her be more Judge Dredd style, that would have been a lot more fun.

That cover... I've seen it before somewhere. Ah, yes

They should have made her look like the girl from the more recent Dredd movie.

>Judge Dredd

Yeah that is precisely what I am talking about, taking a concept and turning it to eleven. Even swearing. Female kind risky sexy jokes Dredd would be cool.

Anything except the mediocrity we are so full right now.

I'm sorry but this game is just incredibly unfun to play. It's janky as shit. Movement is either too fast or too slow. It's shit.

They just put out a Ion Fury review

Anyone here play Alien Armageddon? Shit's a lot of fun and also has location based damage. Makes me optimistic for Ion Fury.

hell yeah i just watched it
it is nice that he actually knows what hes talking about

It's practically mandatory for a retro FPS to make a Doom tribute. Let's not forget that Duke's cover is pretty much just the Doom cover as well.

Out of all the weapons in Hexen only 1 of them is redundant, the Fighter's starting fists as they are completely outclassed in all situations by his other 3. Not a single weapon is 'barely functional,' they all do exactly what they were intended to do and all are viable choice, even the Mace. The Mace, while the weakest weapon in the game, is still useful for saving mana or stunning Centaurs since using the Serpent Staff is dangerous and the Firestorm's main damage, the little fires the encircle enemies, is delayed damage and thus blocked by their shield. I'm curious what you think is a 'gimmick' weapon because there are none in Hexen.

>hexen's addon wad and hexen 2 are only ones worth playing, vanillia hexen is pure shit
For starters Hexen 2 is worse than 1 in every single conceivable way. What I want to know however is why you think Deathkings is good but vanilla is bad. While I do like Deathkings more, the level design is stellar, cuts Centaurs in favor of Slaughtaurs (less redundancy and actually dangerous), and makes liberal use of the lesser-used enemies from the base game (reivers, wendigos, etc). But other than that it added zero content in terms of classes/weapons/items/enemies, just new hubs.

Ion Fury has headshots

POWERSLAVE wasn't even made for build, they ended up making their own engine for it.

Saturn > PSX >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> garbage that is the PC build port.

>Let's not forget that Duke's cover is pretty much just the Doom cover as well.

I'm pretty sure that's because both are blatant Army of Darkness tributes

Slave Driver Engine right?

I FUCKING LOVE the floaty head swaying movement that shit has. It's just looks so stylish and smooth.

Why is this allowed?

did they put out an actual review?

Are you talking about this? I haven't watched it yet cause I don't wanna be spoiled, but I assumed it was just a video going over the tech and stuff.

Oh. Have a nice day then.

I like that they are trying to go back when FPS were actually good

Attached: GOAT.jpg (1920x1417, 1024K)

Well I mean. What is a review really? It's going over the game. I don't think they give it a score but they do say it's fantastic and talk about why.

Midnight release or what?

Fixed

What a faggot. Opinion discarded.

this guy sure loves quicksaves

DOOM was made to run at 75+Hz screens
Carmack programmed Quake 1 and 2 on a SilliconGraphics 1080p CRT screen.

John Romero loved quake 2 Zoomerfag, he still wants to make an Q2Unit of his own along with a Quake 1 Map.

Stop spreading memetic lies

Reminder that this guy got paid to write this, and if this was being published under some faggot company the developers would not receive a bonus because of it.

I mean you get a grenade launcher and rolling bombs alone, so in terms of explosive options you aren't really out of them, but i can agree what you mean by the lack of rocket launcher.

>complaining about no quests markers
What the fuck dude just explore lol

The Only game that managed to Beat Q2MP for a while was Battlezone 98 until activision killed it with the pretext of "low sales" when they outsold and never cared to replenish with new copies, But Q3A Demo was released shortly and it packed MP.

Wasn't the Bonus proved out to be a outright lie made by the already corrupt Obsidian's Management?
Even Avelonne said that it was bullshit.

>Mods in dukes rocket launcher

Douk doesn't have a rocket launcher, he's got a rocket-propelled Grenade Launcher.

If you want to get technical then only Lo Wang has an actual rocket launcher.

WHERE IS THE FULL VERSION
I WANT TO PLAY IT NOW

By actually selling them and people buying them?
Final Doom consisted of TNT Evilution, and The Plutonia Experiment, TNT was a community project which iD Software themselves bought the rights to, and part of that deal was that they would also get another megawad in that deal, which two of the guys on the TNT team, Dario and Milo Casali, hammered together in four months of non-stop work.

Final Doom, at least the Plutonia part, is widely recognized as one of the best parts of commercial Doom, and the Casalis would go on to work as high tier professional mappers, Dario worked on Half-Life for instance.
Looking at Half-Life, and also Quake, there were mods for those games which were bought up and licensed as retail games, especially for Half-Life, Counter-Strike started as a mod for Half-Life, and Team Fortress was a mod for Quake, before Valve bought the rights to it and made it a GoldSource engine game.

Basically, if you think you have something that people would actually pay money for, and nothing stops you legally from doing so, why the fuck couldn't you do it?

That's really cool that they made an hour of bonus content.

What is American Mcgee up to these days? I know he did an AMA on 8ch a while ago but what has he done since?

Those levels make it into the full game i think, (not sure if all of them do) just under different circumstances and are stitched together differently.

I came here to say this, but we can't have authoritarian characters who take no shit and are judge, jury, and executioner at the same time in this day and age. That's SOOO alt-right incel like ya'll
