Hello nerdom!!!!!!!!

painQuin:
hello I am a nerd.
I also registered just for this thread. not really, I've been meaning to register for a while. I just finally got around to it.

I'd like to start by saying that I enjoyed Doom3 up to the point where there were more enemies on screen than my system (note: not my graphics card) could handle.
after that, it became un-fun just because I couldn't actually make any progress.
the reason Doom3 is as dark as it is, is for atmosphere. If you cranked up your gamma or installed the flashlight mod before going through the game once, and then complained that it didn't scare you, then it's your own fault.
and let's not forget that Half-Life took its plot from Doom in the first place...
scientists open gateway, hero battles way out of base infested with monsters to warn outside world
except, in half-life, instead of being a marine you are a lab technician
because as we all know, lab technicians are the most enduring folk on the planet
let's face it.. he is a grunt. he's the guy you usually mow down in other games. but oh well.

ok I'm done.

Now if you'll excuse me I have to go DRAW A COMIC STRIP AND PUT IT ON THE INTERNET.

NERD!

Rauko:
Quin your description of half-life's plot is like taking lobster bisque and adding water until you have a big bowl of runny crap.  Sure there was a gateway, but its to dimension between ours and many other different worlds.  All the aliens you fight in the entire game are slaves of a larger, un-named race that you never encounter.  In the end you find out that the whole thing was a test, and you (Gordon Freeman) was being trained to be a mercenary.  Gordon could care less about the outside world, he jsut wants to escape.  HL2 then expands on this, not to mention beat out DOOM 3 for GoTY.  The only reason that HL hasn't become a movie is that fans would riot if Gordon Freeman talked.

stupendousbadass:
Doom 3 scared the shit out of me, in a way that only the system shock games had previously ever managed. Maybe it's just my secret fear of the dark, but near total darkness and sinister noises get me everytime. Half Life 2 was much better, but not as scary. Not that it tried to be.

Myself, I reckon Gordon Freeman is actually a mute. It'd explain why no one ever seems to expect a reply. We barely ever see his hands, perhaps he communicates by some kind of rudimentary sign-language...

"Look, I think he's trying to tell us something! What's that Gordon? There's been a resonance-cascade in the test chamber, and Eli Vance is trapped inside??"
