yeah I tend to write something drunk, realize its retarded and try to fix it when I'm drunker.
Results are obviously not great.

I mean we pick the 10 best q1sps out of a 15 year history and write about what makes this particular game and these particular maps impressive, relevant and interesting at this time. 

I wonder what could possibly march its way to #1? (If that was too subtle I'm talking about Marcher Fortress.) 

I'm on for that. 

We should try to do something like doomworld's 5/10 year doom article series for qexpo and use that anniversary to make a lot of marketing for the various sub-communities. 

tronyn: than and kona made excellent "best release(s) of year X" for past qexpos!

HAHA!!! I dont like apple much anyway, so this is a good thing IMO. 

has basically died this year :(

There are a handful of demos to post up, but we've been getting less than one a month. Maybe it's just sleeping, we'll see :-) 

is not easy to beat new records :) 

It's not like there weren't enough maps out there...

I loved it =) 

Dunno shit about the game but that was about as funny as that one chap playing Amnesia at like 3 in the morning :) 

or didn't happen

These reactions are pretty amazing, but they sum up quite nicely why I didn't buy it after playing the demo (especially the first guy.) I only got to the bit with the monster in the flooded area and just couldn't cope with the stress the game was piling on.

Those guys really know how to make players shit their pants. It's especially scary since you have to fumble with physics stuff using the hand, which is a pretty awesome interface for this type of game, as it is not frustrating to use but does slow you down a bit and the player is certainly not helped by being shit scared. 

having to do somewhat intricate tasks in a horror game seems like a good way to make someone shit bricks. :P 

Being unarmed usually adds a lot to a (horror) game's scariness. Like the levels of Call of Cthulhu before one got weapons. 

yay for screaming during gameplay videos.

I guess this is similar to Penumbra?

my true love would die on Venus.., what on earth? 

I'm thinking of setting an actual New Years resolution type deal for 2011. I'm wondering if anyone thinks it's feasible to finish a 6-map episode in a year, sticking to a schedule of one finished map every two months, or whether it's too strict or too lax. I already have theme ideas, gameplay ideas, I'm just worried about actually finishing it, considering how long it's taking me to do my metal map.

Any thoughts/opinions/discussion, go.
