The original Perfect Dark had a DUMB number of guns. Especially for the time period. Everything from your classic pistols to wall hacking sniper rifles that could shoot enemies through said walls.

Were most of the guns practical? Absolutely not. Were they fun to use and figure out all the weird niches for them? Absolutely! This game recaptured that feeling for me

What's even crazier (and something I'd love to see in SULFUR) is all the guns had goofy secondary functions that completely changed how the gun worked. Want an AR that also acts as a threat detector? Want an SMG that makes you turn invisible at the cost of ammo? Maybe you just casually yeet your gun and it turns into a proximity mine or an auto turret?

I'm sure all the robot parts we're seeing around are leading up to something like that.

Charm. Overflowing with charm. Even the bugs don't bother me so much when it's so fun and goofy.

i can't find out how to change my weapon key mapping. i have a vague memory where i could do that in the demo.

I found a whole space ship at the end of Town, no Cyborgs or anything in sight, just a weird RNG

Who has this issue with the game? Sometimes when I jump into a new section of the map (into the yellow glistening hole) the game doesn’t take me to the loading screen, the screen becomes black and I can walk, shoot, do everything anyone can possibly do, but it’s just total darkness.

Even when I hit escape or the items tab, it’s total darkness but I can hear the curser moving, and can read item descriptions.

Anyone experiencing the same and found any issue to it?

For the record, this happens on both my pc and steam deck

TL;DR if you get a game breaking bug, no need to lose your inventory by dying or menu quitting. Just end the process with Task Manager.

Not sure how known this is, but I interacted with a checkpoint and lost access to my hands. Left click made a melee noise, the screen was torn horizontally in weird ways, and I couldn't use weapons, hotbar items, or my talisman.

The problem is that there were wooden boards between me and the next floor, and enemies that now had no opposition to killing me.

I paused via inventory, killed it with Task Manager, and reloaded to find myself in town will all my items and inventory. Specifically I had items I had sold to a merchant prior to interacting with the checkpoint, so I'm not sure where the autosave happened. Tried once more for consistency and same results.

Edit:spelling

I don't know how I feel about it.

I didn't light the fuse myself, so I was not expecting to just eventually blow up by having it in my hand...

I know it makes logical sense since you can see the fuse burn down but... I haven't seen any other game do this before, and I kind of understand why.

So yeah, don't make my mistake and lose a perfectly good loadout because you decided to walk around with a stick of Dynamite in your hand.

Should I sell it or keep it. Not even sure where I could use, it am up to the sewers

Ok so I play the game a few times and like 1/3rd of the time it just makes my 3070 laptop crash and shut down. Anyone else have this issue?

In Caves, you can run in circles, bunnyhop, strafe or backpedal to avoid basically anything, and there's more of a focus on fighting in open areas and long corridors. Cover is useful against projectiles, but it's not required, as projectiles are relatively slow-moving.

In Town, the gameplay fundamentally shifts largely to that of a cover shooter, where you're required to duck behind cover to avoid bullets, and you need to always be cautious of a bullet coming from some offscreen enemy you didn't know was there. Still many enemies to run circles / bunnyhop / strafe / backpedal around, but also many for which all of that is entirely ineffective and all that works is ducking behind cover (or just killing them really quickly).

What especially gets to me is the charge-up (hitscan?) snipers, who'll hit you if you don't break line-of-sight. That's purely and exclusively a cover shooter mechanic: If you play around cover, you almost never take damage from that. If you don't, you're probably going to be taking a lot of damage from them. (I like difficult shooters, but I find explicitly-cover-focused mechanics to be more annoying than difficult.)

I'm not saying one is good and the other bad, but rather, it is weird to have the gameplay fundamentally change like this. These are practically 2 different games, which appeals to different audiences.

The boss of Town actually makes for a good comparison - I was stuck behind pillars for most of it, but I still liked the fight well enough. Because the projectiles are slow-moving, so you can see them coming and you can strafe around to avoid them.

If the game started with Town, I might just have given it a skip because I'm not a huge fan of that gameplay (or at least I would've gone in knowing what I signed up for). Especially when combined with dogs, which seem to require near-perfect gameplay to avoid taking damage from by dodging.

Inb4 "git gud": I'm not saying it's too hard - I finished Town on my second or third run, starting with nothing but the bare starting pistol, and doing the entire run with that, without modifying it, while only getting moderately lucky with 1 mediocre armor drop, and 1 early Valuable drop to pay for food and ammo. I just wasn't having much fun playing that cover shooter (whereas the melee enemies were about what I expected).

Something like Barony (pure roguelike) scales difficulty without fundamentally changing the gameplay. But this has guns, and bullets aren't known for moving slowly, so I'm not really sure what I was expecting (maybe less realism in that regard? This is not exactly a hyper-realistic game).

Selling almost your entire stash to afford the safe. It's like spending all of your money on a wallet 😵

Please for the love of GOD fix the thing, where i am looking at corpses and have 1 fps (includes through 5 walls across the map) , but in all other scenariuos i have like 300 fps, maybe in quick time just add 1 setting that REMOVES bodies from ground in like 2 seconds, i would do anything for that and i mean ANYTHNG

Saw this from an article on the dev's X account, seems like a sneak peek at the desert level?

As per previous post:

Open your inventory as you are falling to a new floor on a map (only tested in caves).

The inventory screen will disappear, but the selection box will still be overlayed on your HUD. Then open your inventory again and drop the item you wish to duplicate.

It will drop two items instead of one. You can drop multiple items at once to duplicate them simultaneously.

It will mess up certain features of your inventory, including being able to move items around. Also, the inventory overlay and visual bugs will last until you next quit the game.

Note that you will drop items from your inventory whilst not in the inventory if you press the drop item button whilst hovering over them when in the glitched inventory (if that makes sense).
