I'm fucking amazed how many people are still sleeping on Cultic. The bang-for-your-buck in this game is great, and it's just such a fun blend of frenetic shooting and actually decent tense horror moments. And hell, any FPS with a flamethrower that isn't just good but basically the BFG deserves a gold star. It's one of a very few games I've actually *bought* for fence-sitting friends because I think it really deserves it. Guess that puts me in the cult.

The boomer shooter renaissance coughed up as much crap as it has quality, but CULTIC and Ion Fury felt like the biggest breathes of fresh air. Just good old-fashioned chunky, tactile violence in rich, immersive environments, taking all the right cues from the best of the 90's Build Engine. I'm still waiting for somebody to make a right and proper successor to Heretic and Hexen.

A boomer shooter is a style of game that is strongly focused on simple to perceive yet complex capacity of quick tactics in combat and levels designed to further add to the combat and the pacing. Many mistake it as brainless, but often it's due to the sheer speed those decisions take place are hard for people to register in mind.

Great game. Much better than overrated Dusk and other famous retro shooters like Prodeus (more flash than substance imo). The level design is extremely good. The only retro shooter with a better level design is Ashes 2063 (one of the best fps ever, and it's free) imo. I also liked that they didn't try to put much humor into game, so the tone is very different from Blood's despite their similarities.
