Crusader No Remorse Vibes; Anyone else?
For all you old timers out there does this game bring back memories of 'Crusader-No Remorse'?

And I mean old timers because it was released in 1995 and I have no doubt many that might read this were not ever born yet.

Just goes to show very few games are new ideas, but more so they are better versions.

Get the minigun. (The Strikebreaker IIRC) and if we just had that iconic red outfit as an option man...:raven:

Crusader: No Remorse and Crusader: No Regret was the first thing I thought off when I started playing. I never understood why Origin System and Electronic Arts never followed up with more games for the franchise.

Honestly? I think it was because of 3D... The early 2000's were kind of weird with that. Media reception seemed iffy about games that weren't pushing tech and I think it lead to a lot of studios focusing on that a lot more. Just look at what they did to Syndicate :captainclown:

Yes, I'm getting Crusader vibes as well as Syndicate. Both were gems!

It's why I was in love with the minigun lol. Totally had the Crusader vibe using it.

Yea, you are probably right. Very unfortunate. Everyone was on the Doom and Quake bandwagon back then. If you didn't have a 3D first person shooter in the pipeline, games media didn't care. So unfortunate because Crusader was awesome!

Syndicate was awesome! had forgotten that one.

My first thought exactly! Ah the memories.
Also big up for the Syndicate love in the thread!

Yeah Crusader No Remorse for sure. Haven't been playing too long but have noticed certain weapons kill enemies in different ways like crusader. Hope there is more. also comabt sye in general, the shield doors, destructible environments.

General vibe and ambient sounds remind me of syndicate wars, the activity of NPCs.

In addition the super detailed background environments like at the start of the game when you walk over first bridge or look at distant districts also remind me actually of Final Fantasy 7, like places in Midgar and the reactor near start of game.

Absolutely! Both Crusader No Remorse and No Regret are available on GOG by the way.

Yeah, but the Silencer was more nimble than the Char here, I mean you could kneel down dodge roll from cover, and you would stay in that stance unlike here.

for me its hunter the reckoning. i miss that game =(

Glad I'm not only one thinking about this. It resonates the vibe of Crusader series from Origin Systems from the get-go which brings back so much good old memories~
