  • Soma (From the amnesia guys!)

    Looks interesting although I find the design of the enemy, sort of underwhelming. I never felt nervous or uneasy when it was nearby and I did not really get much of a jump at the end either. In comparison the enemy in Amnesia Justine was terrifying to me, the wheezing noise when it got nearby could keep me on edge even after it left and when it did find me I panicked more than I tried to escape it.

    The design of the world is somewhat interesting in a few ways, the sci-fi design of the place did feel very generic but for the most part I felt that was great was with the robots, especially with the sarcastic guy that believed he was human, maybe he is really or he just got programmed to think that way, I do not know, which is what makes it interesting.

    Voice was interesting, for the most part it use to be flashbacks for the main character to speak but now he actually communicates, good for story, not for much else, It feels strange how he speaks casually whenever but manages to keep fully silent when the enemy is nearby, does not mesh too well. Plus you lose the feeling that it is you in these situations, which is really what helps to drive the fear home.

    Okay concept but I don't feel like I need to see much more of it.

  • What's going on with your life?

    Walked out of two A level accountancy exams alive, and then immediately went out and started a new CS:GO map to work on. Found this website too, those are my highlights of my life currently

    Sadly though I had to have my dog put down a week before my exams (which did not help) and I essentially snapped under the stress and pressure which ended up costing me a few friends.

    Still, I push along and continue to do what I love doing, that's all which matters for me now

  • Overwatch

    I really enjoy the artstyle and how each class performs with eachother, going alone is a death sentence in this game as Zenyatta will slap on a orb of discord and then any class can take you down in a few seconds.

    In what I've seen for this game though, people call it a TF2 clone because it has classes and the medic has a 'med-gun' but just slapping on the term TF2 clone or even TF2 based game is not really a fair statement to make on Overwatch, at least in my opinion as that game has essentially killed itself over the past couple of years and updates, its comsetics over gameplay now and you can't play on a server without everyone doing a conga line, then getting yelled at because you wanted to play like intended.

  • So hi, I'm Bastion.

    Good morning chaps, Its 10AM currently and I found this forum after searching the internet and failing to sleep. I am Bastion, I do maps (well, I try)

    I'm from England, I drink tea and all that other stuff.

    Currently I have been working with Hammer since 2012, although things did not really get started properly until 2014, when I started making working maps with the intention of releasing them, so far I have managed to get three CS:GO maps onto the workshop and I'm currently in the process of putting together my fourth. I get around 300 people showing up on my workshop items on average for each release, its been increasing at a steady rate. Although in comparison to everyone here, that number is probably tiny!

    Maybe I'll get 1000 sexy gentlemen looking at my workshop page eventually, just got to keep refining my abilities in hammer to produce something worth playing.

    I think I'll get comfortable, and check this place out.
