>>388257896
no indie game should be more than 10 bucks especially ones with poor graphics like dusk

For a modded Quake, yes, it is.

Arcane Dimensions was someone specifically taking the Quake engine and pushing it to its limits. Original Quake levels look nowhere near as good or complex, so your argument is invalid.

>>388255893
it's a good game you humongous faggot.
the only problem is that it needs the entire fucking thing released, not an episode at a time. took like an hour to beat the entire fucking game, total disappointment. gonna be sure to pirate the rest of it in 5 years when it finally comes out.

>>388258801

>>388260910
It doesn't release until Halloween, they only gave out Ep1 early for preorders because it was done and people were begging to be able to play it, especially after they let some youtubers get their hands on it. It was a (good) PR move

>>388259449
it's being programmed by one dev who prioritises movement, level design and mechanics over graphics.

Why the fuck do people find it acceptable that video games are regressing like this? Why must people celebrate doing the same thing we did in 1996 with almost zero improvement or general creativity or extra anything to make the experience worthwhile?

There are fucking thousands of third party Quake levels and mission packs available on the internet FOR FREE already, why remake Quake and add nothing to it? Why is this game considered anything positive at all?

>>388261514
ill get it sooner if someone leaks something. didn't buy doom1, didn't buy quake, not buying the same shit 20 years later.

>>388261604
I think it's actually pretty cool, also collectors tend to preserve history pretty well since they know a bunch about the certain thing they're collecting so they can build like really historically accurate mock-ups for things and it's really interesting to see the past like that even for something as simple as like gas station history.

the only reason people are comparing it to quake is the graphics and that you can strafejump (the way you do it is completely unlike bunnyhopping in quake)

>>388262191
>the game plays nothing like quake, mongoloid
Why is it that every bit of footage I see could be easily mistaken for a Quake mod?

>>388262510
because the graphics?
the game itself plays much differently than quake because the level design is way more open and the enemies have much less health. You sound like those faggots who would call quake a doomclone.

>Why do you guys hate on Dusk?

Because being contrarian is hip and earns them their (you)'s. It's like the same people who would make threads saying how people are entitled if they wanted Valve to make EP3/HL3. It's all about the (you)'s.

As someone who just recently did a marathon of Quake & Quake 2 in Nightmare mode and Unreal in Godlike mode (along with their mission packs...yes even that horrendous Ground Zero Q2 one), Dusk fits many of the bills of an old late 90's fps compared to the locked arena psedo retro shooters like the new Shadow Warrior and Doom games.

The only major problem I have is what >>388271205 said. It's hardest difficulty isn't hard enough and the one that is suppose to be even more difficult is a novelty version. If the difficulty is properly adjusted then I'd say it works perfectly well.

>>388259747

>I don't have to answer shills

If he was a shill then that means he's being paid. Unless the creator of Dusk is a multi millionaire, how would he afford to pay people to shill for him?

The reason for that is because you can actually get stuck very easily if they didnt seal them off per room, I dont get why this is such a big issue with some people, I dont have an issue with it especially when you play on Nightmare in doom2016 and slowing down at all gets you almost dead if not dead.
