Rise of the Triad: Ludicrous Edition

For me pure nostalgia. It is however also an entertaining game. The graphics are of its time and fine in that way. I like the small puzzles if you can call them that. Also neat pieces of game-play eg. the soldiers playing dead and how you can wound them into submission.

I played this game once as a kid but never finished a single level. Now returning as a much more experienced FPS player, I decided to complete a few. The first thing was how slippery the movement feels. The character does not stop after releasing a movement key, and the free camera makes it more disorienting. Luckily I was able to choose a fixed camera in the menu, and the game was playable, the cost is flying pads became harder to walk on, but then there's no need to aim precisely, like old Doom games, everyone takes damage in front of me regardless of height. You can push walls, fly to reach secrets, turn switches, yet still the maps are repetitive and are not very fun to explore, but experimenting with different weapons can be entertaining. One unique feature is wounded enemies occasionally kneel down and beg for lives. More interestingly, some may play dead then get back up and attack if you ignore them. This collection includes all the episodes and is often discounted by 75%. At that price, it is worth trying.
