Our next Halloween month 2019 game is Unloved, the Unreal Engine 4 remake of a Cacoaward-winning Doom 2 PWAD. It's a co-op roguelite horror FPS where you need to find all the keys and kill/avoid all of the monsters in order to survive. The premise is pretty simple, but even diehard fans will agree that the progression system is a fucking nightmare. Getting 100% completion requires over a thousand hours grinding an absurd amount of collectibles that only spawn in limited quantities per run. Combine this with a gameplay loop that's not very fun, blurry graphics that induce migraines, and a non-existent playerbase and you've got yourself a title with very niche appeal.
I have to admit, the only reason I did this game was because I promised it in the description of one of the videos last year when I had a potato rig. I had Daymare: 1998's demo planned for today, but it turns out that game uses FMOD instead of XAudio2. The spatialized sound with X3DAudio HRTF [IRC_1037 tables] is noticeably inferior in Unloved than what UE4 games usually sound like.
