The type of stealth with the "you vs the world, but more difficult than this" sounds like my experience with Sir You Are Being Hunted. That game certainly isn't perfect, and honestly only worth it on sale. but enemies were more intimidating in that game, inventory management was more constrained, and you cant reliably take on more than a few enemies at a time without a lot of planning and traps. There's actually a sense of satisfaction to ambushing a search party with bear traps and the few bullets you have. However that game does suffer from lack of cohesion and more shallow mechanics.

One thing I will defend about the later Terminator films is that Terminator: Salvation wasn't that bad of a film honestly.

[@SianaGearz]

I have a vague impression minimme will derive SOME kind of enjoyment out of Salvation's accompanying game though. It's fairly visually impressive for the time. It plays itself almost on rails. It gives off the weird vibe of being pieced together at the last minute from all manner of broken pieces, because that's exactly what happened. It's very short.

[@ike_636]

[@SianaGearz]

@@ike_636 Don't know anything about any arcade game. I mean the PC and console game developed by Studio GRIN. I should try it, PC game should be super easy to run still on modern systems, i think i can see it on my shelf over here. It's super short, like maybe 3 hours. Same underlying tech as Bionic Commando, and i was playing that game just the other week on my Windows 10.

@@ike_636 Ah, i looked up the arcade. I am surprised anyone threw money at that at all, because that is a completely different game. Technically, the GRIN game is not on rails, but you're always moving in such a narrow corridor barely two steps wide, and when you reach a particular point on the path, visibly something new happens like enemy spawn or whatever, that i mean it is entirely absurd. Feels a bit like the game is playing you rather than the other way around.

This made me think, The Mummy Demastered could be a good game for you to cover. It's a totally different kind of game, but it was also a recent budget licensed game that turned out way better than the failed attempt to reboot a long-running film franchise it was supposed to tie into.

[@Gurka9999]

The first time I saw a review of this game I noticed the how easy it was, even on the "EXTREME" difficulty. This made me look in to mod support to see if it might be fixable.

With possible future mods to difficulty there could be a great game here.

Outside Xbox (I think?

I clicked off of their video like five minutes in because Terminator has never interested me. Now, watching this review, I see why it was deemed worthy of covering-- sure, it's a tie in game, but there's enough there that it's at least respectable on its own merits. I still probably won't play it, but this video gave me a better look at the game and had pacing quick enough to keep me interested. Great work!

Funny that the only negative reviews seem to be from mainstream critics, whereas the general consensus for this game seems to be decent. Just goes to show that mainstream media is out of touch, I suppose.

[@0lionheart]

Nah, but it does show the difference between the two. If you go to a critic, you're going to a formal, editorial review. If you find someone on KZbin who you align with, you're getting more of an informal, subjective take. 59% aggregate (~6/10) to me honestly feels roughly in line with what I've heard from my favourite content creators -- a 6/10 is still a good game, it's just not for everyone.

[@android927]

Maybe they patched the game since your review or maybe i just suck, but i found the Terminators quite scary when playing on hard mode as it would only take one or two of them to kill me within seconds of getting spotted and send me back as much as 10 minutes to the last checkpoint. Sneaking past them was a genuinely nerve-wracking experience for me. EDIT: Yeah, turns out it got a patch that improved the AI and rebalanced the difficulty a couple months after this video was posted. No wonder my experience has been completely different from what I've been reading in reviews.

Didn't he said deadly dozen? Similar games could be ghost recon 1, delta force, operation flashpoint (now arma cold war or something), project IGI or something. They tried to turn Soldier of Fortune 2 in something like that and failed.

[@minimme]

For me I think Hidden and Dangerous 2 is probably the best of them - that would be a good place to start. The first Operation Flashpoint is a good choice too, and yeah I'm partial to Deadly Dozen which I made a (very old) review of if you're interested.

[@5persondude]

minimme Thanks! I’ll look into some of those sometime; I’ve always loved slow-paced open-ended missions, but couldn’t get into something like Arma

[@miles2354]

Delta Force 2 was pretty awesome, not played it in years or hunted it down though so not sure how easy it is to find now. Bearing in mind when it came out it's very impressive though, with massive (almost infinite) draw distances thanks to being voxel-based rather than pixel-based.. This also adds a lot of jank to the graphics, but at the time was a tradeoff I much preferred. For example, if you lie in grass, the grass isn't just a sprite that disappears at a distance, someone looking at you from across the map would also see the grass. Weird example but one of the things that made my immersion in the game and its multiplayer really good
