At this point i'm just turning whatever comments I left on Glitchwave into reviews here lol
For my money the greatest FPS of all time, but you won't really be able to tell that from Fresh Supply. Like, it's a solid adaptation of the game to modern hardware, but it's so apparent that Blood wasn't made for the fullscreen 1080p experience. A lot of what made the DOS version so special was lost in translation, with the lighting and shading becoming rather dull and the overall polish not really fitting the raunchy horror vibe that made the original game so special. All you have to do to render Fresh Supply obsolete is play literally any New Blood title.
Maybe I was a bit harsh there but if you make the sawed-off feel just like any ol regular shotgun it becomes personal

It amazes me what Monolith was capable of pulling with the Build Engine. The AI is great, Stephan Weyte gives an outstanding performance as Caleb and of course the Cultists are amazing. They also can be a pain in the ass on higher difficulties, especially the ones with Tommy Guns. I think most, if not all, of my deaths were due to being overwhelmed by them. Hands down the best FPS experience I had, a must play in my humble opinion.
This game is great, truly. The difficulty curve is insane compared to other classic FPS games, I do not recommend playing this on Extra Crispy at all since it just becomes so hard it isn't fun. I played it on Well Done, and it's really an experience. Episodes 1, 2, and 4 were amazing, creative maps that fit and play very well. Episode 3 I'm personally mixed on, it felt way too long though I still very much enjoyed it. The weapons and enemies forced me to play differently compared to other usual FPS games, and I love the way it was done. This is a staple, and a must play for boomer shooter fans.
