I just wanted a single player FPS game like the originals. Is that too much to ask for?

If you can turn off the co-op shit it might be passable. I doubt it though. Just listen to the dialogue in this game and tell me with a straight face that this looks enjoyable.

Yes. I played it at release in 2004.

It looks the same shit as the original, which was hardly something requiring a functioning brain to play.

The maps were really just big arenas, so this actually is a formula that works for Painkiller. Of course, if you never played the originals than this would make you piss and shit your pants in anger because positivity or even a "meh" is much cooler.

Don't call it Painkiller if you're not going to make Painkiller. I'm cool with games being different but when I like RED and you advertise RED 2, don't give me BLUE.

Ah... I see what it is. A woman's voice is getting you angry.
Game looks like it could be decent. Painkiller's story was always fucking stupid, it was the never the point.

>>712518215
R-tard linked to a video... it looks like it uses the painkiller weapons and some of the movement with enhancements... and the story is still some stupid hired by god to kill demons shit... the story doesn't matter, it never did. Painkiller was about shoot shit and bouncin the fuck around at hyperspeed.

I'm replaying the whole series right now. Enjoying the fuck out of DF1 since I never finished it as a kid. Can't wait to get to DF2.

Couldn't make it past 30s. That dialogue is horrendous.

And what the fuck is this character design? Revolting. Instant pass.

the only thing I liked about original painkiller was the fun ragdolls.
I'm sure the new game won't have that, or they'll disappear after .2 seconds so they can render more fireworks particles everywhere

Is it actually playable as a non co-op? or does the design lean so heavily into that it's not fun solo? what annoys me about modern gaming is that i always have to skip co-op games because i don't really have any established online friend list to play it with. For a hobby that is supposed to cater to shut ins they seem to do the opposite.

It's also worth noting that left 4 dead having a server browser absolutely made that game viable with randoms. I think that's the only game i have serious hours in for co-op.

I have a feeling the gaming landscape readjusted itself a dozen times while Witchfire was in development. It doesn't interest me anymore.
