Those guys could make a freaking FPS back in the day. The AvP2 title puts all recent ones to shame.

Now Monolith Productions is making a MOBA of all things, based on LOTR. What the fuck went wrong here? Why not give them a try at an Aliens or maybe another AvP game? Why a fucking MOBA when we have so many mediocre FPS nowdays? They knew how to make a good single player FPS, not sure if the talent left or other reason. The little NPC conversations in their games added a lot of personality to them.

Is it Warner Bros being a cancer asking them to do subpar games?

Monolith only had like 1 good game, tops.

Both NOLF games? Or were you too young when they were released?

You should play them. Pirate whatever, it's worth it.

Monolith is dead.

We will never see a Blood 3 or the Blood 1 source code.

I would settle for a No One Lives Forever 2 spiritual sequel. Or a new Aliens/AvP game.

Not bad, but not outstanding either.

What are they about? Seem like shooters.

Shooters with good writing, 2 had some good stealth, solid gunplay and both have some good comedy. It's very different compared to most FPS nowadays. It's a parody on the spy genre, but unlike Austin Powers it's a female lead character.

Someone made a no one lives forever thread. This is nice. I will check the replies there.

>>180144524
Loved those games.

With the entire anita thing going NOLF series was a prime example of a well done female lead character.

The games sold like shit, where were you fucking people asking for female protagonists? Fucking useless cunts, Beyond Good & Evil also sold terribly. Can't fault the industry for abandoning diversity when the games simply don't sell.

No they're making Guardians of the Middle Earth, a MOBA for consoles.

fuck Monolith then...I was hyped as fuck for that game.

Thank you for the info.

Never played any of Monolith Soft's games. But looking at the sword in the size of a bus tendency of JRPGs it already puts me away from Xenoblade Chronicles.

Shogo was the first FPS that didn't give me motion sickness.

>>180144219
I had the demo for this on either Shogo or Get Medieval. Game was really fun. Never really got around to playing the rest of it though.

I remember all the weapons in Shogo being really satisfying to use. Especially the mech's sniper rifle and spider mines.

...okay, maybe not the on foot second grenade launcher. That thing was way too deadly to the user to use.

I-I just wanted FEAR 3 to be good. Why did it end so poorly?
>>
>>180149969
But the game flopped badly in sales. Either those people weren't into gaming back then, or they were a small audience or they didn't show up. But then Beyond Good & Evil also sold poorly later, so yeah.

The market is voting with their wallets, they don't want to play as females. Even if it's not the real reason for those games bombing, it's what the publishers will take from the results.

FEAR 3 WAS SHIT

IIRC, didn't 3DRealms almost finish Blood before handing over to Monolith?
>>
>>180150735
Beats me.
>>
>>180150603
I felt really bad just playing FEAR 3. I really want them to make a sequel to the expansion pack for FEAR 1. The expansion felt more like a sequel than an expansion pack.
>>
>>180150148

I fucking hated on foot sequences, they were too much reliant on memorization.
>>
>>180151008
They weren't involved in FEAR 3 though.
>>
>>180151158
I should've made it more clear, but I meant who ever made the EP for FEAR 1.
>>
fps as an entire genre is fucking tapped

its not interesting anymore to watch on a competitive level, and its just compounded by the fact that current multiplayer fps games are somehow playing catch-up with games from 10 years ago. and oh boy, another single player FPS will somehow save the genre? these games in 2013 are so fucking scripted that they practically play themselves.
>>
>>180151338

Those expansions were pretty bad.

My friend and I were really excited for FEAR 3. We both loved 1 and 2, which we beat almost at the same time. We had two TVs hooked up in his room and we both had our 360s hooked up to play it.

When we beat 3, we just felt kinda empty. Hell, the only time the game scared me was during the mall when I was climbing a ladder and Alma popped out, and that doesn't mean shit because it's completely recycled from a similar part in 1.

And people say /v/ hates things without any good reason. It's just easier that way.
>>
>>180151416
The first one was pretty good, the second EP was meh.
>>
>>180151435

You didn't see the series going downhill with the first sequel? Man, I thought it was awful.

It just didn't have the same feel as the first game.
>>
>>180151338
Monolith does have some trouble with sequels though... Condemned 2, Blood 2. It just makes me sad they're not working on a single player FPS, to me it was where they shined in the past. Now forced to make a multiplayer FPS and then a MOBA.
>>
>>180151716

They should go to Kickstarter
>>
>>180151667

I never found out why people thought FEAR was better than FEAR 2. There's just a ton more variety in scenery, even enemies, compared to the first one.

>>180151435

When I saw the live action trailers for FEAR 3 I knew that game was doomed. Then I saw gameplay, and I was even more convinced. Neither game ever really scared me, so I was never in them for the "omfg scary" stuff. Still, I was kind of disappointed that they let it go to hell like that.
>>
>>180151667
I did think it was a step back, but I know sequels often are. I was hoping they would learn from their mistakes with both games and would try and make 3 the best one.
>>
>>180151827
If they do it for a spiritual successor to NOLF it would be the first Kickstarter I would back.
