Turok

Outdated, Frustrating

If you grew up and loved this game, I'm sure you'll enjoy playing it again today. Nightdive did a great job of fixing some technical issues and, while it's not as impressive looking today, it still looks decent enough. That being said though: I think the game itself is garbage. Don't get me wrong. I grew up playing Turok and thought it was awesome, but today, it can't even hold a candle to any FPS made in the last two decades. The movement is strange and stiff, the combat is incredibly awful, the platforming is beyond tedious, and God forbid you go up against an enemy with a gun: You'll be dead in several seconds flat because they have impeccable aim and deal more damage, more quickly, than you can. If you really want to play Turok with all of its complete and total jank, do yourself a favor: Play with cheats. Godmode, infinite ammo, whatever. It'll be a much less frustrating experience. As for me, I gave up about 45 minutes in. Life's too short to be playing these old games with outdated designs and bloated artificial difficulty.
