After beating the Descent (1) - and rescuing all of the miners in each level - I'm not sure I'll ever replay the game in the future. The early levels are part of my memories from playing games with my friend on his adult brother's computer while we were still children. Those early levels are fun. I'm glad we never got very far into Descent, because as soon as the hit-scanning enemies pop up around level 6, you pretty much need to abuse the save system to make any progress in the game. I haven't even played Descent 2 or 3, so I think I'd rather move onto them than replay Descent (1).

I didn't look too much into the (new) SH2 remake for the reason I already went over, and because the change mentioned in my last post is a huge turn off for me. I also heard about there being a lack of fog - something that was a big part of the original game.

Since you already spent money on the remake, I'm glad you're enjoying it. As for me, I'd rather go back and replay the original than try out the latest remake - even if I had the latest and greatest hardware to run the latest remake.

I finally beat Descent (1), so now I plan to revisit good ol' 2.5D Doom.

I saw a video on Youtube about the Silent Hill 2 remake - the one you recently purchased for the PC. Apparently one of the female characters has been rendered fat and ugly, even though she was never supposed to look that way. If the report is true, it would seem as though the Silent Hill 2 remake has been the victim of DIE / DEI / political correctness / wokeness / 'the current thing.' I wouldn't be surprised if the game also let it slip that this seemingly female character is actually transsexual, or the male character you play as throughout the main campaign is revealed to a a woman by the time you finish the game.

I played Silent Hill 2 on game consoles, and although I have a retail PC copy, I never got around to playing it. I would probably play the old retail copy of Silent Hill 2 over the remake, and there are two reasons for that:

1. The system requirements for the remake are insanely high.

2. Konami already remade Silent Hill 2 (for the PS3 and Xbox 360), and the remake was crap. Konami used to be one of the best third party game developers and publishers in existence, but it became a turd of a company circa 2007. It's downfall was even worse than Capcom's.

Anyway, I hope the latest remake is good, but I don't see myself playing it any time soon - if ever.

Now that I have a machine capable of playing KF2, I must say that it's single player experience is much better than KF1's. So far I consider that a saving grace, because the few times I've tried to play KF2 online, all of the other players had no idea how to function as a team. It was like playing with bots, except the bots had never been programmed to be considerate of anyone but themselves. The fact that I was being connected to Chinese servers - b/c I'm working in China - may have had a lot to do with that, but I had also been playing KF1 from within China and had a much better time taking that game online.

Hi Nicolas, it was nice to hear back from you. Don't worry about the late reply - I barely go on Steam any more, especially since I stopped playing Unreal Tournament 3. Pretty much the only game I play these days is Descent (1), which I intend to beat sooner or later.

I don't quite understand what you mean about Killing Floor 1 being a "period-session game." Anyway, I think KF1 CAN be a lot of fun when played in multiplayer mode, as long as the other players actually know how to function as a team and aren't jerks. When I first got KF1, I played it in single player mode to learn the game's mechanics and the differences between character classes ('perks'). However, I quickly discovered that KF1 in single player mode isn't something I find very fun.
