    I expected a whole lot more from the studio that brought us Hypnospace Outlaw, which was a really good game by the way.

    This game was made solely for a very select group of people who grew up in the midwest from 1990-1997. This game was oddly personal to me in ways that is hard to explain. The story is dumb and convoluted in the most entertaining ways, something that feels exactly like it was made by an edgy 15 year old as a means of coping with the mundanity of his environment.

The story is dumb and convoluted in the most entertaining ways, something that feels exactly like it was made by an edgy 15 year old as a means of coping with the mundanity of his environment. It feels like stories I myself would have made ten years ago, and that coupled with the fact that the game never treats these self-insert power fantasies as embarrassing and instead embraces the type of teenage loner that would dream something like this up shows a lot of respect and reverence for a type of childhood fantasy that seems to have evaporated more than two decades ago.… Expand

    The most perfect like doom clone i ever seen and i instantly fell in love with it.

    And make it makes you remember you were listing to Walmart copy of Limp Bizkit significant, and also the fact that this game was tied to Hypnospace Outlaw is kinda surprising too! And cutscenes are awful but really unique awful, just Haunted PS1 demo disc Vibes. There's alot of turd jokes (Literally),    The most perfect like doom clone i ever seen and i instantly fell in love with it.

    There's alot of turd jokes (Literally), which get old after the second time but you'll just get used to it after the 10th turd joke. after all, this is a 90s shooter edgelord game. And the things you could do in the levels are pretty nice too but the parkour secrets are very hard to do since a doom clone isn't supposed to be like that.

    And to end my Rating post, Werewolf girls with rocket launchers are hot as hell and will probably end up on e621.net

    Thanks Zane.

    Everyone has had their edgelord phase, whether they want to admit it or not. Slayers X: Terminal Aftermath: Vengance of the Slayer is an explosion and poop-joke filled journey through those memories, and I loved it. Zayn is crude, and weird, and narcissistic, and way too easy to relate to - he's a reflection of a dorky teenage past, brought to the surface via a fast, fierce, and unforgettable shooter experience.

    Judge it solely on its throwback shooter credentials and you’ll find Slayers X is slightly more functional than fun, instead the real joy is in its examination of protagonist and developer Zane Lofton.

    Old school, retro, fun. Slayers X: Terminal Aftermath: Vengance of the Slayer is an FPS for true nostalgists who want a game that reminds them of the old days spent between Doom and Wolfenstein.
