In Response To: Re: meh (Forrest of B.org)

: Maybe my problem is just that I have no taste then, cause I just DLd Lost
: Lands 2 and played a small portion of the first (non-prologue, so actually
: second) level, until AO started lagging out the wazoo (general bug I'm
: having lately), and while it's certainly not "OMG WOW I GIVE IT FIVE
: STARS CAN I GIVE YOU MONEY???" quality, I didn't see anything
: particularly horrible about it. What's so wrong with it?

Well, see, I played several levels (mostly down the "secret" branch), and I found:

* Water pits that you can't swim out of
* Holes that you can fall into and not get out of
* Liquids that are defined by the "Flicker" parameter instead of the standard "Linear"
* Horrible custom graphics, especially black-and-white Flick'ta that throw Invincibility BCEs
* Terrible level flow
* Aggravatingly poor pattern-buffer placement
* Mission descriptions that are insultingly vague
* Frustrating physics models (subtly invisible monsters that shoot plasma bolts)

Almost nothing that you'd want to see in a scenario, basically. It was terrifyingly bad.
