In Response To: Eternally Bored (Steve Levinson)

: Oh, I hate to make this post. I really hate to make this post. I swore to
: myself that I would wait until I had played Chapter 1 of Eternal through
: all the way before posting any comments, but I'm finding it so tedious to
: play that I'm not sure I even want to finish it. Forrest - please, don't
: get me wrong - Eternal has its moments, but it also repeats some serious
: errors of scenarios past, it still has quite a few bugs in it, it uses a
: muted color palette that makes Rubicon look positively vivid and much of
: it seems contrived. I'm near the start of level 6 now and I sincerely hope
: that blake37 wasn't playing it on TC - if so, I'm not nearly as skilled as
: I thought I was. Even switching back to Kindergarten, the level is still
: populated with very aggressive major fighters, compilers and hunters. Yes,
: I know I could clear them out and let the level repopulate itself with
: minor variants, but even that is difficult and tedious.

i almost never play on TC, cuz i just start to hate it and die, and get pissed off, so don't worry. i did that level twice, the first time i was on normal and spent alot of time just looking around at everything, and then the heavies came in and kicked my ass from one end to the other. so then i knocked it down a level or two (i can't rember) and ran like hell the whole time, and hardly killed anything unless it was directly in the way of whare i was going.

i agree that level two didn't feel all that much like the marathon, i thought the rest did, except for a few spots. and level five was a bit bland and had the random poly/switch thing, but while i am not the veteren steve is, i really thought it was exalent. one thing i agree with is that thare should be bobs, and bodies, and the like. it didn't occer to me while i was playing, but the pfhore arn't after us, they're after the bobs.
