It never overstays it's welcome like it can in some RUclips shows. But because it's used sparingly it's always a treat. Civvie doesn't do that kind of stuff as much anymore which is kinda sad but his newer stuff is great too.

    Hearing that time travel joke @2:10 after watching the Duke Nukem Forever video really messed with me. It's as if Civvie has been planning the continuity of these episodes since the very beginning, and the meta of these reviews is gonna grow into a story all its own. I don't know if I should be giving him credit for setting that up in advance, or if it's all some coincidence but MAN, I am officially hooked. This man truly deserves his subs.

      (correct me if I skip some detail but)
      I mean, CIvvie did rat out on where his terrorist uncle is after getting one too many spoopy apocalyptic dreams in one of his videos. The government(?) could be more lax on him as they could just torture his uncle for the more disturbing intel. Getting civvies disturbed childhood memories more describes his Uncle instead of tracking him down. On why Civvie is still here, either he's there as a sort of bartering option for more secrets out of his uncle, or as a matter of keeping him in if he's somehow turnt into a weapon before getting taken in.
      Oh yeah, and the robots monitoring Civvie seem to be rebelling against the dungeon managers, that could be a thing too, as well as that terminator thing, and probably whatever new threat tease is happening.
      Can't believe I'm replying to a few months old comment, seeing as his newer videos has some more lore (potentially enough lore to create a doom fan mod) but that's the gist of what's happening.

    I'm really not sure why someone would willingly title their early 90s FPS game "Corridor 7" unless they knew it was shit. "Corridor Game" is what people who didn't like FPSes referred to FPSes as back in those days before the term "FPS" was common. It'd be like making a sandbox game named "Time-wasting-field 9" or a 3D Platform game "Collectibles 12."

    • @SeekerLancer
      @SeekerLancer 5 лет назад +25

      I don't really remember "corridor shooter" becoming a thing until the more linear and cinematic FPS games started coming out to differentiate the two. Now nobody really uses the term anymore and just says, "old school shooters."
      It is a lame name though. It's like they said, "well this game has hallways, get me a thesaurus. Also put a random number on the end so it'll be like Wolfenstein 3D, but make it a BIGGER number."

    • @SPTX.
      @SPTX. 5 лет назад +11

      What are you talking about? Corridor shooters weren't even a thing back then, the closest you had was rail shooters and those were pretty great, also FPSes is just a plural of FPS so it can't come first and people mostly referred to them as doomlike.

    • @kayeplaguedoc9054
      @kayeplaguedoc9054 5 лет назад +25

      ​@@SPTX. "Corridor Game" and "Maze Game" were terms used to refer to early shooters, often disparagingly. Not as common as "Doom clone" but I remember it fairly distinctly. Yeah the term "Corridor Shooter" became more associated with super-linear FPS games later on but the term was often used to refer to how Wolfenstein and Doom were just mazes made up of corridors. The term became less common around the time FPSes with more open or vertical game design became common.

      Fairly true. Atari and many other companies were guilty of this same thing that caused the video game crash back in the early 80's. Many companies thought that just because certain topics were selling like hotcakes, that they could put the same topics into garbage design and make profit off of it. Soon after, people just stopped buying games because they were sick of being burned. This is why I don't really buy many new games, I've plenty of older games to go through that I haven't beaten yet.

    Capstone also was responsible for Witchaven, a pretty good 3drealms build engine game that had awesome box art to match. Digitized graphics and medieval theme.

    I was playing this earlier and discovered the simple thrill of placing a proximity mine near an enemy then firing a shot and pulling back behind one of the doors you can see through then watching the enemy charge into the mine to reach the door. Cackling as this occurs boosts the effect.
    Plus this games has the Ithaca 37 Shotgun favored close quarters weapon of Corporal Hicks, and favored 20th century gun of Kyle Reese so you know its has to be good.
    The Minigun fires slow sure but the bullets it fires are almost three times the size of the normal Minigun round so you got to give it a break somewhere. Its basically an infantry weapon firing the same diameter bullets as those used by most mid to late Cold War era US Combat Jets. I used the Infrared mode for checking if a computer terminal is an access key or an alarm but that's about it. I had forgotten about the lasers (Until this afternoon i hadn't played the game in more then twenty-five years.

    You could be different aliens, even one that turned into a barrel when holding still. I would be a floating eyeball because it was quick.
    The dumb parts were that there were 8 levels that you could only go down and not come back up and I had to constantly communicate with my brother so we were on the same level. Also, items and weapons didn’t respawn so after exhausting the goods from the last level you pretty much had to restart. I don’t even think multiplayer had an objective, like you just kept killing each other and respawning until you wanted to quit, not even sure it kept score.
    Anyway, nothing special now but for the time it was pretty revolutionary multiplayer gameplay.
