Fear is pretty well known and liked on /v/

>>322866291
Underrated by the general community or underrated by /v/?

>>322867060
General community
>>322866868
On /v/ maybe, but a lot of normies have no idea what it is.
>>322866979
Looks fun

>>322866291
I thought you said underrated, not "best game ever made in history"

It let me live out my childhood dream of being a ghostbuster. I still play it from time to time.

not really underrated, just not very well known

>>322866291
>FEAR
There are much better shooters on PC, and it's the only good game of the series, If anything is overrared.

Just bought it on Steam over the sales. PLaying through it now. I'm on Chapter 7 (where you're in the office looking for the girl Wade or something)

It's pretty dang fun, and looks good considering it's 10 years old. My only complaint is that all the enemies are bullet sponges, and the game throws so many at you.

And then you have special enemies like the armored guys who take up a shit ton of bullets. The good thing is that you can take out their legs and just pop off a few shots at them.

The worst enemy I've encountered so far are those fucking flying drones that shoot lasers at you. Wtf is up with those? The lasers eat right through your armor and they fire fast as shit. They're bullet sponges too, so you can't really take them down fast.

>>322868940
I fucking hated this guys.
The only way to kill them is hide behind a wall with a shotgun and when they get near slow mo.

>>322868098
what exactly do other games in the series have to do with it? are you really that desperate for talking points?

>>322868647
It's really overrated on /v/. Most people see it as an average shooter with spooks, and thats precisely what it is. It's not unreal or quake, its not doom or serious sam, it's not even halo by any chance, is just an ok game which some nice details like good ai and gunplay but thats about it.

>>322869178
All actual classics have good follow ups, even better than their original games.

I didnt fucking knew that, what would happen if you do that

>>322869756
If you aim your shots at their legs, they kneel down and stop advancing. At least, that's what I've noticed so far.

If a series doesn't have much to offer but one good game maybe the series didn't had that much to offer in the first place? I mean even the first FEAR starts getting repetitive after you are fighting "not generic commando guys" in yet another office building for the 15th time. Again, it's not "underated" by any chance, it has its right place.

>>322869756
>Shooting at a leg
They start moving very slowly, and try to hid behind cover while calling for help.
>Shooting at hand
They start to held their weapon with one hand which usually doesn't end well.

Dismembering kills instantly

>>322866979
This game fucking ruled.

>>322870010
Why do you thing the picture represents the whole series? It represents the one fucking game.

I realize that you want to bait people by showing that you are a "hardcoar" gaymer who played quake, serious sam etc but it has nothing to do with FEAR's quality.

Also half-life 2 < FEAR

I never found the commando dudes bulletsponges. Headshots from every weapon take them down easy. Lean and they'll have a lot of trouble hitting you.

That would have been a QTE in modern games.
With a Bradygames™ guide for the button press sequences.

>>322870213
>Also half-life 2 < FEAR
Not really. Good gunplay doesn't make out for having the most repetitive enviroments and enemies in the history of shooters, you just sound like the typical hipster that wants to pretend his "okay-ish" but and not very well known game is some kind of undiscovered, underappreciated gem, instead of recognizing that maybe peope just didn't find it that good.

>>322870429
Funeral home is my fave bit of Extraction Point. One of them, anyway, the end sequence is bueno.

>>322870323
With that gun that shoots bit metal rods, it takes me about 3 shots. With the assault rifle it takes 2-3 bursts to bring them down with headshots. If you take them down before they see you, it only takes 1 bullet, but once you take one down, the other 4-5 in the area go into alert. Ammo isn't a problem, but I just hate letting my armor or health get low during firefights, because I have no idea what I'm going to be facing in another couple seconds. Now that I have to kill those fucking lazer drones, I need all the armor and medkits I can carry because those lasers just zap me down to 0 super quick.

>>322870429
Nice. I actually completed the game on extreme.
I am now halfway the Perseus Mandate, and the ninjas with grenade launchers are fucking hard.

>>322870068

>>322870609
If I remember correctly the laser drones are part of the run away sequence, where you need to get to floor level or something. You're supposed to run to the stairs

lazorbots are bullshit just rush underneath them in slow-mo and blast it with a shotgun

AR in FEAR is bretty gud with that 45 round magazine

>>322870642
The cunt with the Arc Cannon is worse, he's got a buddy with a grenade launcher in an elevated position.

>>322870503
>HL2
>Not the most generic game ever.
Literaly fighting the same carbines over and over again, zombies with crabs on their heads and "boss" fights(alien helicopter and 3 leged thing)

The only inovation it has is it's physics, which fear had too.

>>322870732
It has very good melee combat, but thats about it. It's not overated.

HL2 is so fuckin vast it makes FEAR seem a like a mod. Don't talk bullshit if you haven't even completed the first episode.

Is called being objective. Halo is far from being on my top shooters.

>>322868905

Agreed this is my favorite entry in the series

>>322871647
you know the ps3 had good exclusives when so many overlooked this gem

>>322871142
FEAR has a lot more replayability to me. HL2 felt like hopping from set piece to set piece with puzzles in between. While set pieces are cool the first time, they aren't that interesting afterwards.

>>322868098
I liked FEAR2 for the most part. The elementary school was pretty neat.

>>322866291

>>322866291

IX was a bad Final Fantasy. It had absolutely terrible equipment, skill, and ability systems that allowed no room for players to shape their characters in any way. The trance system going off outside of your control was even worse designed than VIII's limit spamming. The combat was slow and boring and the only interesting mechanic AT ALL was the dynamic between Steiner and Vivi, and it didn't really add anything to the game at all. It had a terribly boring setting that's only praised by "classic fans" because it didn't emphasize sci-fi, completely disregarding that Final Fantasy has used sci-fi elements from the start of the series. Your cast consisted of characters like Freya who were completely forgotten by the plot after their usefulness to the story was up, characters like Quina who basically just showed up whenever the game felt you needed a 4th party member and didn't do ANYTHING of any relevance, and characters like Amarant who I'm still trying to figure out why he was added to the game. The protagonist and antagonist being "space alien grim reaper brothers" is by far the worst plot twist in the series, much worse than either the orphanage in VIII or "You're a dream Teedus" could ever hope to be.

The worst part of all? In a series that's known for its innovation in its genre, Final Fantasy IX bitched out and actively BACKTRACKED to boring, outdated, mechanics. At least the early games it was a callback to were innovations of their time like the ATB system in IV, and at least for the PSX titles VII, VIII, and Tactics all tried to do new things with turn-based RPGs, storytelling, and world building even if it didn't please everyone- whereas IX actively decided to say fuck that, and appeal to idiots who want video games to stagnate.

It was boring and had nothing unique going for it. In fact, nothing about the game is particularly memorable. It has no sense of identity for itself and just takes after previous titles.

>>322866979
Is this game well optimized? I was thinking of grabbing it but I don't want to rip my kinda aging PC a new asshole.

>>322870942

Be warned, that's the civilian version and it has a single-stack magazine well. You have to widen it yourself if you want it to accept STANAG dimension magazines. They neutered the shit out of that thing, it takes a bit of work before it's not a huge turd.

>>322875138
yeah it runs great but you need the latest patch or its stuck at 720p

>>322871038
Yes

Nothing as fun as just fucking slamming shit up with one of those walkers. Seriously, the amount of shit you could pull to destroy buildings was amazing and it doesn't bog you down with the story, at all, even the intro is incredibly short before you are unleashed upon the EDF

>>322871759
yeah fear2 was OK. It wasn't as good as the first but not exactly the fuckup that was 3 either

>>322871038
Ended up spending more time in that than GTA5.
Something just 'clicked', the re-released version was lightyears ahead of the shitty clunky G4WL version which seemed to have that horrible mouselook emulation patched over the console controls, where the mouse appears to move in 5 pixel increments.

He's also getting old so you can't blame the guy for not understanding how to structure/contribute to a video game.

To contribute: pic related

The shooting is hella solid, the graphics and setting are mind-blowing, co-op is fun, and the crafting has a lot of range once you get the hang of it. If you play like an action title with horror elements the disappointment fades into the background.
