First time playing

Post by vagrantart »

Just started playing the game for the very first time,heard a lot about it over the years and I do think player controls are pretty bad but it has a good atmosphere.Installed some of the graphics mods here and saw a good improvement.

Believe it or not, I haven't played the whole game through myself. I mean, I've played up through the Lab level, but the Ascent Levels and the Summit I've only played with cheats. :lol:

This defies all that I once knew.

I've played through the game many times, and since i seriously started working on my project, i've played through it even more.
I even regularly listen to Jurassic Time and Anne's adventure.

I can't believe you would undertake a remake of Trespasser without ever having played through it!
You'll probably find your outlook on the game will change and possibly your plans for your remake.

I wish i could explore the Town for the first time again.

Ah, exploring the Town for the first time.. I really wish I could experience it like that again. It's absolutely incredible! Although it would take me a while to find a way into Hammond's mansion, probably. :P

Glad to see Anne's Adventure getting a mention, heh. :)

I don't remember much from when I first played, however I recall the epicness of Hammond's diary.

My knowledge of the game was slowly broken in, I probably watched at least four different playthroughs of it on YouTube before I actually got the game.

Old Guy Voice: Back in my day we didn't have fancy YouTubes... We had to use things like Sinjin's Trespasser Walkthrough to know what the game was like:
http://www.gamechronicles.com/guides/tr ... eswalk.htm
Notice, no screenshots... Just a bunch of text based maps. I had to guess based on what screenshots I could find and using InGenNet's Site B Explorer - a clickable map of the entire island that left something to be desired in terms of accuracy. I was about 12 or 13 at the time and couldn't buy the game since we couldn't find it anywhere. It was 4 years old at the time. I got it on eBay for about $5 by the end of the year and got it as an early Christmas present.

I've still not actually finished playing it all the way through,I think I got frustrated at the john hammond house/stairs bit,then restarted it from the beginning once I started the Unity project proper.I did watch once of the walkthroughs all the way through and play the demo level which I think I played before on an old pc format or pc gamer cd.Cant believe when I started my own project I thought I would get to modelling the town level within a a week or two lol.
