This is it, the final showdown in our #IonFury playthrough. This was a fun romp, it's crazy now to see the explosion of GZDoom games that have come out in recent years, and to know that even the company #3DRealms themselves were able to make something fun and nostalgic as this.

Which reminds me, I really should get around to playing #Selaco, #Hrot, #Dusk, #AmidEvil, #Prodeus, and all the other modern Boomer Shooters...

Is it cliche to have a Mimic in a fantasy RPG? Yes.
Is it cool and fun, anyway? Absolutely.

Team Fortress (Quake version!)

We're back in the dystopian future of #IonFury for today's VOD, and as frustrating as this game got I still remember it positively. We are, however, approaching the end of this playthrough which means we're also approaching the point where I ran into a bevy of A/V issues during the livestreams. Luckily outside of a few rare occasions this should be one of the last series with such issues, especially given the low bitrate I was locked into before I became affiliated.

By the way, here is J2MELancer tech demo. I am not giving up on it, more like treating it as a side-project within my primary project. Will resume it eventually.

Well now, today's the first VOD we'll come across with two games in one, we started off with more #IonFury but switched over to #MonsterHunterWorld about 2 hours in for a change of pace.

Today we're diving back into a #BoomerShooter, but not the one you're thinking of. No instead for today's VOD we had just gotten our copy of the then newly released #BuildEngine game, #IonFury. This was such a fun return to form for #3DRealms, and aside from the quality issues on our end throughout the playthrough, the whole thing went rather smoothly.

Oh! And this marks the first VOD that used some form of branding/overlay, so welcome to the second era of our saga, the Glitch Era...
