Rogue-like :)

Dissolution of Eternity was probably the better experience over Scourge of Armagon, but both felt kinda sloppy next to Dimension of the Past... It was much more cohesive and coherent; like MachineGames made the most of the original games' limitations whereas Hipnotic and Rogue might've aimed a little too high... I get that they were learning though; Hipnotic went on to do some really cool stuff with id Tech 2 and 3, as well as Source. Rogue, however, brings me to my next point: I'm currently getting into the Quake II mission packs using the quake2xp mod. Curious to see what Rogue's Ground Zero is like and if it lives-up to what they did with Strife, but so far Xatrix's The Reckoning is pretty neat; got a bit of a Half-Life feel to it, structure-wise (big levels broken-up in to smaller sections), and the puzzles're pretty clever... The graphics're blaaannnd though, even with the graphics mod.
