boy what are your opinions. on scpsl

SCP SECRET LAB. OH BOY! so very sorry for taking one hundred million years to answer this it completely slipped my mind. but i have thought long and hard about it and this is my rating (keep in mind, this is my opinions on stuff that was added pre-parabellum (basically i haven't played it in 3 years)):

IT'S PRETTY COOL BUT OH MY GOD THE PLAYERS

MAN, mechanically this game is AWESOME!!! randomly generated game environments with random spawns of players and monsters, ESPECIALLY with proximity chat, will always be a fantastic time. it's one of the only FPS games i've ever enjoyed on account of it being balanced really well with its survival aspect! dealing with the monsters' different mechanics and dealing with whatever human team is opposite yours is REALLY fun, and i always have fun with it. again it's been aaages since i've played but this was one of the things that really stood out to me liking! every time i think about SCPSL i think about this video that covers a TON of mechanics, it's outdated as hell now but i loved watching it over and over again so much and i would highly recommend it for just fun times and good video essays:

and then, of course, there's my interest in the SCP stuff itself!!! that contributes a lot to my enjoyment of it as a game because, obviously, it wouldn't be the same without the monsters. i've had a big interest in SCP for about 4 years and it's sort of reviving now because my buddy sent me a really good one the other day ^_^ anyway i love the silly horror ao3 and it's really awesome and cool

SCPSL on its own is a very well made game, at the very least pre-parabellum, but the players... wowww it sure was! yaknow just your average cesspool of gamer guys who freak the fuck out when they hear a girl voice. griefers. hackers. mild racists. BLATANT racists. etc etc... which wouldn't really be a problem in most games. you could just play with your friends! but a big feature of SCPSL is how MASSIVE the lobbies are. you need at LEAST 10 people to have an even halfway enjoyable experience, so you either have to be insanely lucky to have a MASSIVE friend group that has the time AND the specs AND the willingness to play, OR you just have to deal with random lobbies of weirdos. the culture might've changed since i last played, but that feature is just essential to the game's existence. couldn't work any other way really. just wish it was easier to play and didn't take like ultimate 2034 gamer pc to run lmao
