DOOM Eternal - The gold-er standard for the video game industry.

In my Doom (2016) review I gave that game heavy praise. However, in hindsight I somewhat regret giving such a high score of 9.5/10. It left me with little room to score Eternal, which I consider to be leagues better than the former. Not just in terms of a Doom game but as an FPS action game as well.…

I have "wasted" my life - My most played games on Steam (PART 2)

Oh... It's you. It's been a long time. How have you been? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You might have noticed this is a little late, sorry. I just got busy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Because of the sizeable time gap between this and the last post [https://thebottomlesshat.com/2018/05/31/i-have-wasted-my-life-my-most-played-games-on-steam-part-1/] , I will be…

I have "wasted" my life - My most played games on Steam (PART 1)

Note from the future: GTA V has overtaken Elite Dangerous in hours since writing, which is why they are now out of order. Note from further in the future: Elite Dangerous has taken the lead again, balance has been restored. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It should come as no surprise to anyone that…

Who's OOC is it Anyway? - Crowdsourced idiocy.

Disclaimer: This post gets fairly technical. If you don't understand parts, I really don't blame you. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you've read my previous post on StreamLoop [https://www.thebottomlesshat.ml/2018/02/28/streamloop-one-of-the-most-pointless-things-ive-ever-done/] , you'll know that I like to create weird programs. The other day, I reached a point of…

DOOM (2016) - The gold standard for the video game industry.

Please note I received DOOM (2016) for free. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OK, so I admit I'm a bit late to the party, nearly two years late in fact[1]. DOOM (2016) is the 4th main instalment in the DOOM franchise, with the first "classic" DOOM being released in late 1993. This new…

Blueshift - And why I am now a bit sad.

For those unaware, I've been in the VR hype circle for a long time now. Starting with the original Oculus Dev Kit, I was enticed. I needed one; and shortly after the Dev Kit 2 was released I picked one up using some Christmas money. Fast-forward a couple years and…

Rust - A spectacular display of mediocrity.

Please note I received Rust for free. It was gifted to me ages ago. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh boy, where to begin with Rust. It's in a strange place in that if I were asked if I recommended it I would say no. It's not really a game worth buying. Especially since…
