This is the best first person shooter ever made. >some of the best AI in any shooter: enemies can shoot, throw grenades, dodge, roll, juke, take cover, switch cover, bait and lure you, coordinate with each other, even get angry or scared. you feel like you're fighting sentient creatures with a sense of self preservation, and not just cardboard cutouts. >enemy types, positioning and the tactics used by enemies change every time you play, meaning no firefight ever plays out the same way twice. endless replayability with skill-intensive gameplay that will challenge even veteran players and cannot be wholly memorized. >graphics are still beautiful 20 years later with lushg landscapes and moody, chilly brutalistic architecture >butter smooth animations, all sorts of fancy lighting and particle effects, killer music and voice acting... presentation is superb >impressive physics system, real time rendered projectiles, enemies react realistically to being shot, insanely long object/decal permanence, tons of attention to detail >balanced weapon system that prioritizes strategy and critical thinking (low IQ shitters who think the pistol is the only viable weapon need not apply) >timeless multiplayer Let me make something very clear: every game commonly said to be better than Halo CE is trash. It's almost astounding to me that somebody could call a game like Halo "baby's first FPS" while defending garbage made by id, Epic, Valve or Rare. Your average id shooter fan would get absolutely fucking raped on Legendary. Halo CE's gameplay is so incredibly cerebral compared to shit like DOOM or Quake (the allegedly "hardcore" shooters) that it isn't even funny. Halo 2 is what spawned the casual, consolebaby mountain dew and doritos culture of Halo. Not Halo CE. Halo CE is a solid gold 10/10 game that should be held amongst the likes of Super Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time. It is, in every conceivable way, a better game than anything which preceeded or succeeded it.
ever play a game where you tell yourself it's good, but it left a sour taste in your mouth? for me, it's Paper Mario. don't get me wrong, there's a LOT of good there. but I just constantly felt the gameplay was underwhelming. the combat is sluggish, the exploration is one-dimensional, the dialogue is childish even for big N standards. it's a 7/10 game that gets away with it because of fun content. I subtly hate myself for playing it to the end. it just wasn't fulfilling as an RPG. is TTYD much or any better? I read that it's one big QoL, but many seem to rate it same or lower than PM.
I once posted a Times you acted like Kefka thread at /vr/ and a janitor somehow considered it more worthy of pruning than the average CRT-shader circlejerk, impotent scalper hate and console wars bait threads. Weird stuff.
>what's that? your IBM is giving you some trouble, son? >my first step would be to replace all the caps on the entire board >...what do you mean there's no evidence the caps are causing the problem? they're going to fail eventually any way so you might as well >what do you mean you don't want to commit to such a drastic first course of action before ruling out potentially simpler fixes? If there's anything I've learned in my 50+ years doing this, it's that the problem is always caps, sonny >you want to keep the board in as original condition as possible? what are you some kind of poofter? off with those caps, chump >ah you found some corroded traces on the board? I told you that'd be the problem >WAIT YOU USED TAP WATER TO CLEAN IT OFF? ARE YOU INSANE? YOU JUST DEPOSITED SIX GORILLION MINERAL PARTICLES ON YOUR BOARD THAT ARE GOING TO SHORT IT OUT THE NEXT TIME YOU POWER IT ON!! YOU SHOULD HAVE USED BRAKE CLEANER OR SOMETHING! >oh it didn't explode? well you'll be sorry about those minerals one day... >what's that? the floppy drive won't work reliably? that's an easy one. just replace all the RAM, that'll fix 'er right up >oh you've already determined the RAM is not the problem? you've mentioned this multiple times? well those chips are notoriously unreliable, it's possible they could still be the problem. I'd replace them all anyway >ah, the drive head was just dirty? well it could have been the ram... >what? the keyboard isn't working reliably? IT'S THE RAM!!!!!!!
>remember some game you liked as a kid >look it up on youtube >find a bunch of angry manchildren crying and scream that it's a curse word load of another curse word >itsallsotiresome.bmp
