Oni is so good.

[-] Classy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 hours ago

Fuck yeah Neverhood!

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago

Blade of Darkness was kickass

[-] Vladkar@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

Is kickass

[-] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 hours ago

Wait, those games came on CD? I thought they came as ISOs with a nocd_patch.exe

[-] iegod@lemm.ee 4 points 8 hours ago

Oni! <3

[-] Acidbath@lemmy.world 7 points 11 hours ago

I didnt know oni was on pc. Ive been playing it recently on ps2 and let me say the movement in that game is amazing.

I recently went through getting it to run on Linux. It’s one of the only Bungie games I haven’t played. Shockingly in depth combat, I’m enjoying it, but I’m bad at combo based fighting games, so I’m playing it in very bite sized pieces.

omg the Neverhood.

[-] glorkon@lemmy.world 3 points 8 hours ago

I still use the song "Operator Plays a Little Ping Pong" from the Neverhood OST as my ringtone. Never fails to amuse.

[-] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 hours ago

My favorite was always "dum da dum doi doi."

[-] glitches_brew@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

Everybody waaaaiiill

Man, my brother and I were obsessed with the Neverhood back in the day. That game was so weirdly satisfying

[-] happysplinter@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

I swear one day I'll beat it.

[-] CrowAirbrush@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago

I used to play one of those demo disc games where you get to fly an aircraft and do missiona, but back then i had bo clue what the mission was i was just happy being able to fly.

I never stopped playing games, i was always taught that you can't pilot when you're colorblind so i was convinced video games would allow me to do things real life would never let me.

Skyrim really caught me and after that cyberpunk took it's place, i just love being rewarded for your work and getting to do cool shit with that money.

Real life barely feels like you're being rewarded anymore imo.

Looove Dues Ex. I just looked up The Neverhood, and it looks so interesting. Definitely going to need to watch a long play of that.

[-] Varyag@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 14 hours ago

I don't remember that Oni game by Bungie. That cover art looks nice.

[-] skygirl@lemmy.world 19 points 22 hours ago

I thought neverhood was just a fever dream I had as a child

[-] MeatsOfRage@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 13 hours ago

Klaymens Theme is an all time banger

[-] eluvatar@programming.dev 5 points 19 hours ago

That game is so good, one of my early gaming memories

[-] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 3 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

I still sometimes hear music from the game used in videos

[-] TheEighthDoctor@lemmy.world 8 points 19 hours ago

Now I can finally activate my RtCW

Bungie’s Oni was really good for the era. Right before halo and when they were still releasing games for Mac. Think I still have that disc in storage somewhere alongside my Mac copy of Halo CE.

Sharing your cd key, are you now?

[-] couggod@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago

Ahh the paperboard case for Deus Ex. That brings back some memories. It's amazing that it is in such good condition.

[-] Thcdenton@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago

Based

[-] RightHandOfIkaros@lemmy.world 50 points 1 day ago

Oni was a slapper. Would love to see it done justice. Not by Bungie though.

[-] DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 1 day ago* (last edited 22 hours ago)

Rockstar acquired Oni to get its proprietary engine and killed its sequel, Oni 2 because they got what they wanted

[-] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Or, Angel Studios became Rockstar San Diego and they made Red Dead Revolver instead.

But I admire your hate version.

[-] DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago)

Rockstar is pretty shitty to devs, but okay, the Midtown Madness devs did have a glow up because they were under new management

I just recenly learned about Oni 2s leaked prototype existence and I'm salty that they piecemealed that IP into oblivion.... HOWEVER...Oni's engine would become the RAGE engine that powers and gave life to GTA IV, Red Dead Redemption, GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 (...and perhaps GTA VI..?)

[-] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 4 points 18 hours ago

That's interesting, I didn't know it was the basis for the Rage engine. Thanks.

Neverhood was a fantastic experience. If you like puzzlers.

I laughed so hard the first time I saw this.

The Neverhood is deeply underrated. It got a spiritual sequel a few years back.

I dont't think I've ever played an eidos game that actually worked and ran out of the box. Such a bad experience.

FF7 was hot garbage

[-] thisisbutaname@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 1 day ago

I remember playing Project IGI, that one was hard. Die and you have to redo the entire mission, brutal.

Some classics in there for sure. For those that haven't played it, Oni was a quiet favorite of mine from around then. I don't think it got a lot of attention at the time, or even today. This was Bungie near the end of its Mac-first pre-Halo era.
