What are some games about Hell that aren't Doom? Something that's actually atmospheric.

The monsters are neat but it's just a time/score attack game. Think of it as a timed puzzle game that tests your memory and dexterity. It gets boring as fuck easily unless you have autism.

Agony has terrible atmosphere. Doom had a unique depiction of Hell with all the marble and wooden architecture while Agony was the generic "fire and meaty caves" depiction.

I wish this wasn't so common. I like to to think hell as depicted as a bottomless pit of despair. Because there is no bottom to despair. If you had even approached the bottom of despair you would already be an hero.

Not sure if it's 'Hell' so to speak, but it's a retelling of the Dead Sea Scrolls and you go into a sort of dark realm where everything becomes corrupted. Also, your partner is Lucifel pre-fallen. He's a dick.

He did a damn fine job of voice acting too for a writer who has likely never done voice acting in his life. I think the main issue with Cyberdreams as a whole is they were too ambitious and ahead of the time, a game like I have no mouth is nothing like any of the popular games of the mid 90s. Even darkseed as shitty as it was atleast tried to do something out there and interesting. If Cyberdreams was around today I can guarantee you they would be making bank now that weirder niche games are popular

Even the cliffs notes make it clear dante's inferno has many different environments, starting with simple places of darkness and utter pointlessness, followed by howling winds, raging burning rivers, forests of human triees, cities of giant burning coffins, deserts of raining glass, and going down to concentric rings of various punishment until you reach a frozen hellscape with a giant bored satan in the middle. That doesn't at all correspond to the typical vision of hell.

Did you consider that angels only make themselves appear human, and their half-offspring lacks the power to do so?
Pretty sure that's accurate with the bible, where angels took on human appearances because people who would see them otherwise would spontaneously combust., so it's a good thing those kids merely look like noodles.

257ffa No.16327463

Devil Daggers isn't what you think it is. It's solely a first person bullet hell. There's a single level that's just a square plot and your goal is to just survive as long as possible. The entire game restarts upon death. People comparing it to older shooters like Doom and Quake are doing it only because it looks really good. In terms of gameplay it's closer to something like Asteroids or an Atari 2600 game.

>>16301986
Agony took this from Dante's Inferno which is the root of most depictions of Hell in the modern day. Dante took most of his ideas from Greek mythology (even taking characters directly from it like Charon the ferryman and Cerberus).
Other depictions of Hell tend to be more philosophical and abstract which tend to not do very well in a vidya where people expect to be shooting things.

They're doing it because that's exactly what it's comparable to in how it looks, deliberate low poly albeit highly detailed and usage of sprites.
