I first played Blood when a friend of mine returned from America with a load of games he would never have been able to buy in Germany at his age... I was fascinated at once for I really adore Shooters and you know... it's always a thrill to play a game you're actually not allowed to
And since my first computergame ever was Doom I or II (can't remember which part of it) at age 6, I needed this one =)
As a matter of fact, I'm not very concerned about how gory a game is. But somehow this game makes me sick when playing it too exzessively. I'm not quite sure if it's the monks cries, the fact that you have to kill civilians in order to proceed, the possibility to play football with a zombie's head (and that there's even an own map for it) or simply the thought of who on earth develops games like this.
Don't get me wrong - I think Blood is quite a good game (though there are way better ones, but of course it's the nostalgia-factor that counts here
), but this is definetely the most ill game I've ever played. When playing Postal I had to laugh, but when playing Blood I sometimes was horrified.
Most freaky scene was when I wanted to shoot a gargoyle who was about 5m above me in the air, the auto-aiming in the game killed the civilians who were right below the Gargoyle when I shot though my crosshair was into it's damn face. Scary :blink:
Well anyway, as I suggest there are enough mad persons ( :bleh: ) visiting Abandonia, try it out - you really should
PS: What I hated most were those crappy cut-off hands choking you... I never managed to get rid of them
