I follow you on Redneck Rampage, it has horrible levels. Still, it wasn't a bad game. I loved Dark Forces. The atmoshere on its own was great.
Blood is one of my all-time favs. There were many incredibly good levels, I thought.
I'm thinking: could it be the nostalgic factor that 'troubles' my mind? It probably does, to some extent. But it can't explain why I'm playing those old(er) games again and again, and why I throw those modern shooters on a pile after a single play-through.
I just think there is zero replayability in these modern 'Hollywood-shooters'. They got a great story, they're thrilling, exciting, full of FMV's...but they're lacking the taste: should I play them again? Nah, I've seen it all. I'm an explorer.
From time to time I play Doom or Wolfenstein 3D on my androidphone. After all those years, I thought I'd seen all the levels, all the secrets. But that's not so, I still keep exploring and finding area's I didn't know about. I think that's great.
And that's what it's all about
: we all seek different things in games. Nothing wrong with that
