#shrine 2

[jade--salamander]

If i had a nickel for every FPS game I've played that replicates an old ID Software game, stars a badass in a trenchcoat and wide brimmed hat who has a cool melee weapon and dual-wields shotguns who dives into a mind-fuck nightmare dimension and forsaken churches to fight a cult and a reflection of themself before finally killing a lovecraftian monster, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.

[image ID: the first image is the cover for Shrine II, depicting the title and the character Tusk, a humanoid being wearing a gray, rimmed hat that covers his eyes. his mouth is made up of large teeth and protruding tusks. his skin is red, and he wears no shirt, just gray pants and long, gray, sleeveless coat. he's holding what appear to be 2 weapons in his hands, both gun-like: one red, the other made of white bone. the second image is of Richard Conway, a pixelated noir detective, wearing a fedora and brown trench coat. end ID]

Richard Conway

He's a freelance spy. He frequently ends up accidentally launching himself out of windows that are several stories high. He has funny cyberpants. He sometimes ends up hired to track down evidence of his own crimes. He also has a blog. "How do you know my name?" "It's on your profile, it's your phone's public ID, and you once gave it to me on a business card while saying 'My name is Conway.'" "That could have been anyone."
