Re: Least Favorite Levels

Things I hate:

Too long

No way to open certain door or find a key or reactor
No enough time to reach exit
Guide Missiles required
D2 puzzles

Most modern add-on levels has at least one o' those (those which work)

Re: Maximum DosBOX memory + few other questions

1. Replace certain 16 with 64 in DOSBOX.CONF. Though it doesn't practically help, since Desc' may be a 'resource demanding game' and no game requires more than 16 MB anyway.

2. Set graphical details to highest?

No. In first 2 plays levels were quite frustating: unsolvable puzles, too long, confusing levels, matgens with reactors, bosses, M.A.X!!!!.

Re: Review: Revenge of Dravis

Most level are (very) short. Good size would be 50-100% bigger than first ones. I didn't know how to solvessome (the 1st one being the 3rd, 'cause the blue key), which means deletion in my books, no matter how great some might be. But it's not the worst mission I've played.

Re: What if you were in charge of Descent 4?

Make it like D1/2, no cutscenes (except exits and ending), more solar systems, etc.
The story? PTMC's formal divisions now compete with each other. The player works for one and attacks other companies' mines to destroy 'em and to leave his own to the only one remaining.
