Alien vs Predator 2 was peak Monolith for me.

No One Lives Forever, F. E. A. R. and Shogo Mobile Armor Division are some of my favorite games ever.
RIP Monolith. Thanks for the experiences.

As a fan of all those games, Monoliths only really good legacy game is FEAR. While NOLF and Shogo are fun, they’re extremely buggy, and the jank is not easy to ignore.
FEAR is still buggy, but its got way less than their other legacy titles.

I don’t recall the jankiness, just that they were fun.

I’ve been trying to get through NOLF this year (never played it before) and it definitely feels janky and clunky. Some pretty awful stealth too. It doesn’t really feel like they’ve aged all that well. Maybe the sequel is better, who knows.
I gave up after a couple of hours as I just wasn’t having fun at all, I realised I was only playing because it’s a classic and I wanted to be able to say I had played it.

I guess 25 years ago it seemed pretty awesome. That’s part of the reason I don’t replay some of these older games; can’t find my NOLF CD anyway. I tried playing Outlaws not that long ago, which is also on my all-time favorite list, and didn’t age well either.
