Is there a more elegant shooter than Serious Sam
>>12904076Is serious sam elegant? Is that a good descriptor?
Serious Sam is a honest shooter but it's not elegant.
>>12904127>>12904121didn't ask
>>12904121No, I think it's the opposite of elegant, and that's what makes it fun.
>>12904138>the nigger feels entitledkek
>>12904076>shooter>elegantop is a retard
>>12904150What's elegant to you, Clockwork Knight and Sin & Punishment?
>>12904154Chess is elegant. Tetris is elegant. A small set of rules producing an enormous possibility space. Calling a shooter elegant just sounds like we're trying to make shooting enemies (pointing and clicking) sound like a fucking art exhibition.
>>12904164deus ex has an enormous possibility space and mario 64 with its movement
>>12904178Yes. It doesn't have to be just puzzle games that exhibit elegance. Fair point. I still fail to see that with shooters. Portal 2 (and arguably 1) might be the only ones, and they don't really involve shooting at enemies.
>>12904076EPIC FAIL THREAD!
>>12904154Another world is elegant
>>12904076The only shooters I would describe as elegant are stealth focused ones like NOLF and Perfect Dark. NOLF having such a classy elegant woman as the protagonist helps a lot too.
>>12904164>I still fail to see that with shooters.Rainbow Six Rogue Spear.
probably the only thing about any shooter i would describe as elegant is quake's movement, not shooting
>>12904076Serious Sam can be fun, but its the complete opposite of elegant, and thats by design, too.
>>12904076Yes.
