Something about those awkward hand gestures really gets me going.

I'd love a new Wolfenstein-style game that diverges from the simple divide of giving them helmets.

It's simple morbid truth that these people are human beings, who have committed their minds to unimaginable cruelty. It'd be fun to have more games about reciprocating that cruelty.

Mortal Kombat's fatalities gave me a big ick factor when they leaned into cruelty and pain (and thankfully turned towards looney creativity to be entertaining). But I could see the former being a bit more valid when there's universal reasoning behind why it's being applied.

bj would have been beyond devastated about what is happening now

BJ saw it in 60s US, and you know what he did?

He got to work.

Let the mods flow in (as in game mods, not moderators...)

Hmmm, reinstalling Wolfenstein doesn't sound too bad.

[–] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 7 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I've been toying with the idea. So many good memories from New Colossus. It might be linear, it's such a great story. Not Shakespeare great, but honest b-movie great.

[–] wirelesswire@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago

I agree with that. I think it's time for Terror-Billy to go on a rampage again.

Someone is going to release a Trump administration reskin and it's going to be spectacularly popular.

I was literally googling earlier today to see if there were any updates on the next installment. Maybe it was subconsciously influenced by current events?

Machine games has been working on Indiana Jones for the last few years, I doubt we'll see anything for a while.

I would suggest Indiana Jones and the great circle as well for this.

I'm on PS5 so that'll have to wait until some point this spring.

Brutal Wolfenstein is a very fun game, you truly get to experience spilling Nazi blood :3

[–] djsoren19@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah absolutely, really itching to just bash the first smarmy fascist I see.

In minecraft, y'know?

If you have a Quest you can return to Castle Wolfenstein in VR.

[–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 3 points 1 day ago

All those old games: Wolf3D, Mario Bros...

I need to finish the game.

[–] Zimroxo@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

I've been playing Return to Castle Wolfenstein! Having a blast revisiting a childhood classic and blasting through Nazi scum

[–] germtm_@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

it doesn't have to be Wolfenstein specifically. i've been blasting some in Metro not too long ago.
