| I lump your shmup reviews in with Zseni's LJRP. I spend more time looking at my own poop than I do reading those posts, and I read -everything- on Caltrops. So, if you're going to go down this road, I think you should do some outreach by finding shmups with a broad or eclectic appeal, because the fundamental shmup model is just so repugnant to so many people.
The only shmup I ever liked was Raptor. Are there other quasi-persistent shmups? Are there stat-driven role-playing shmups with inventories and choices and sidequests and... XP? I'm never going to read shmup enthusiast press, but I will at least skim your shmup posts, so if someone has elaborated on the Raptor model I'd feel obliged if you let me know. Honestly though, I can't imagine why anyone would like the 'core' shmups unless they were doing speed. Though on speed, -anything- is fun and engaging and a radiant bridge to a truer knowledge of yourself and the world. Cheers, Simon Sampson, P. Eng. |
