Did you like the old PS2 era James Bond games?
Because this is it, except with sassy SJW female protag.

Yes.

Speaking of NOLF, is the PS2 version good to buy in a pinch, or would you recommend trying to get the PC version online? Are there any unique system requirements or issues to keep in mind should I opt for the PC version?

>female protagonist

what do you think?

Don't bother with the PS2 version.

This is all you need: nolfrevival dot tk/

Thanks.

These games were great. Played on PC, don't know anything about the PS2 version, but a very fun and inventive game. There's also a spinoff called Contract Jack that wasn't too bad.

The first one is fantastic. Great level design and variety. Possibly the best linear, set piece-driven campaign ever made for an action game.

The second one is really kinda bad. Tiny levels padded out by making the player go around them in circles multiple times for fetch quest objectives, infinitely spawning enemies, bulletsponge enemies, worse dialogue and humor.

First game worked flawlessly for me, but the second had a game-breaking bug related to modern hardware running the game with too high FPS.

In the mime tricycle cchase I had to cap my FPS to 30 for the level to finish.

Learn to use Nvidia/AMD panel to cap any game you want at 30 or 60 FPS willy nilly.
It's how you can fix literally any "too fast" old game.

i played the first one not quite to the end recently bit but unskippable cutscenes are just so horrible

it's not bad.

Cate was also much better character in the first one. Well written strong female character before SJW even knew what videogames were. She is strong and capable, while feminine and vulnerable.
Her banter to her male coleagues is how a well written femnale should talk.

In the second game she's not a character, just your typical FPS self-insert for the player, just a floating camera.

This and the Thief 2 are possibly the best guard conversations ever.

Huh. I'd just start firing right away. Never really bothered with the dialogue. Although it doesn't change anything so it's kind of pointless.

Game is filled with conversation like those, full of James Bond/Austin Powers tropes.
You hear minions talking about job interviews at rival evil organizations, their family, how their lair has fake lava or about the sharks for dropping the superspies in.

Also plenty of silly notes and eater eggs in the levels, don't rush and explore.

Makes me not want to shoot them then. That's no fun. :(

yes

It's like those Deus Ex redpills except there's no political conspiracy, just straight truth.

Man I wish there were more games with this kind of fun detail in them. It feels like too many games just treat enemies as crap bullet sponges or whatever, not to be thought about, only shot up.

boring, tedious 90s FPS games

First one definitely has much better Cate, but the gameplay is far improved in the second game (IMO).

Overall the NOLF series aren't really anything special in the gameplay department, but they have tons of personality and great presentation.

If you really want a spy game with good and unique gameplay there's always Goldeneye and Perfect Dark but some may find the controls hard.

does anyone know how to fix the mouse stuttering? already messed with mouse smoothing, hardware cursor and fps cap..

Yeah, but if it doesn't change anything it's just insincere. That's like a game giving you a chance not to kill anyone, but all you're doing is making Z's appear above their head or not. Literally nothing else ever happens.

digital re-release when

I actually hated this because the game doesn't have stealth or give you the chance to spare their lives. It creates this unpleasant disconnect. It should feel fun but it's not.

just download it from nolfrevival. it will never have an official re-release because nobody knows who owns the ip. night dive tried to do it years ago but all the companies involved simply didn't want to bother to look through their records so its effectively abandonware.

You look like you need a monkey

>she doesnt wear the suit in the second game
the second game has worse stealth imho but the first game is god tier. why cant they make a sequel again?

The writing is nice but the gameplay, oh lol, the gameplay.

that ass tho

>smooth and responsive movement and shooting
>good level design

What's wrong with the gameplay?

>why cant they make a sequel again?
like user said above nobody knows who even owns the ip anymore.

licensing issues, they cant even rerelease the first 3 games (including contract jack)

>hear a guard in the second game talki about how his mother is devastated because his brother died in the first game
>have to kill said guard

why is she so perfect bros?

would you?

>no trigger discipline

No

Who would want Contract Jack though?

you bet

...

I get graphical artefacts on the first game. I heard it's due to running it on my craptop which has Intel graphics. Is there any way to fix it so I can actually play it? Like a patch or something?

>you look like you need a monkey
I don't know why that was so funny or why it stuck with me.

>doesn't have stealth
Nigga, there are literally stealth missions in it.

>i want the DRM and CPU cycle waster known as steam to run in my background
Fucking retard.

...or he meant gog.

but the features user!
would be better than nothing at least, and I would pay to get the game running properly on modern hardware

>people wanting a re-release when you can get it RIGHT NOW FOR FREE with all the latest patches

...

Based, she needs more r34

>SJW
>NOLF
Kill yourself you subhuman, parroting assbirth.
I absolutely 100% mean it. Kill yourself you unwanted, failed abortion.

I'm playing it right now.
But considering how Night dive studios handled the turok games, we could have gotten a game that runs way better on modern hardware.
If it was a simple re-release without a touch up I wouldn't pay for it.

would be nice if it got brought back today when female protags are all the rage

>NOLF in this day and age
Please no. I already know they'd ruin her.

For marriage.

1st one definitely
2nd one is tedious but may be good if you like immersive sims

...

anyway to stop 2 from crashing all the time?

It's true, in the first game she was complaining how people are hitting on her and how her colleagues and superiors treat her as inferior (which is true)
And the 2nd game has a nigger general

but it makes sense, it was during a time where women where considered inferior and she is like the first successful female superspy. I thought the CIA guy was a nigger, the general is a manlet and white?

yeah i remember that happening when i played. i used fraps to cap my fps, was easy to do

Don't tell anyone but I'm working on making a NOLF clone in VR

What do I add to it besides a shrink ray (and actual art) Sup Forumsros

I think the point he is making is we need to stop this woman empowerment crap. Making women being like men is not how woman are meant to be. Not to mention women are never better at anything and men are better physically and mentally.

but she wasn't like a man, in game she couldn't pickup bodies because she wasn't strong like a man, most of her cool gadgets where disguised as womens items and some other shit. the sequel just threw that shit out the window though. she doesn't really talk shit anyway about empowerment or whatever, she just says the dude giving the codephrases is a thirsty permavirgin

cool, im trying to make a clone too but without the VR. you do that all by yourself or do you have a team?

team, we released this game a few months back store.steampowered.com/app/591680

>3DPD

>he doesn't like 3D women
don't worry robo waifus soon

DAMM!? SHE LOOK LIKE DAT?

much better now

if only I could swivel the camera around instead of the third person shit
