Thanks for accepting this bounty! Here you can talk with other bounty hunters as you progress through the game and keep everyone up to date on your progress.

Time to get this party started! Nostalgia better be good to me, I loved this game when I was younger, haha

This was one of the games I remember seeing in stores and thinking "man, I wish I had a PC!" It was also one of the first games I picked up when I finally did get a PC in 1998. And boy did I love it! I used to play the first episode for funsies between classes in college and knew those levels in and out. I would do a full playthrough every once in a while as well, just to stay sharp. I ended up replaying it back in 2014 and I thought it held up very well, but I'm looking through some very rose-tinted glasses hehe.

The expansions are okay, but I didn't like the level design quite as much as I did the original game. I played through both of them last year for the first time and they're pretty short (roughly 2 hours a pop).

I even dressed up as Caleb one year for Halloween and absolutely nobody knew who I was.

Hahah, honestly, I can't say I blame people for not recognizing you! Talk about a badass but obscure costume!

Okay....Confused.

I bought One Unit Whole Blood off of Steam. Is that the same thing as this?

Edit:

I see now. It's the compilation. Includes Blood. I didn't know it included more than just the one game. Score!

Okay, so in this instance, it still should count as a bounty towards Blood as long as I enter the completion for Blood...even though it is a compilation, right?

Yeah, One Unit Whole Blood includes Blood and its two expansions. The playthrough that's created from the bounty will be for Blood and yep, it'll count even though it's in a compilation.

Yeah, I'm planning to play through these. I'm excited to finally try these games.

It's a close race between Blood and Duke Nukem 3D for my favorite Build Engine game, but I think I'll give the nod to Caleb. It helps if you like B-movie horror too :P

I am making some moderately good progress in this game. I'm on Episode 2 and feel like I'm getting through it much faster than Episode 1. This is a very good FPS game.

I spent some time getting the controls to work properly today, looking forward to diving in properly tomorrow to start my run :)

I did that a couple days ago. I had to even tweak a little bit once I got a little ways in because swimming came into the picture. I think the most annoying enemies in the game so far are the rats!

Well that was fun! Lot more difficult than I remember this game being back in the day, holy crap. Playing on extra crispy is going to be really tough when I get around to it.

@Dhobo - I just looked at your time. 16 hours...wow.

lol, yeah, I had a lot of problems with this one. Controls never really stopped feeling weird from start to finish, especially the up/down distortion that happens with aiming. Almost got nauseous a few times from it. Tried playing it on a smaller screen to see if it would help a bit, but then I was dealing with playing with a laptop track pad which was frankly even worse. I dunno, I'll have to figure something out for my next attempt at this, because I really really like the game.

This game is really fun. The only gripe I have with it is sometimes I have NO clue where the hell to go. I think I've added a little bit of time to my play through entries just trying to figure out where the hell a door is or where a switch is. I'm glad I'm finally playing this one after hearing so much positive about it.

Haha, my memory of this game was practically non-existent. It took me five minutes to find the exit button for the very second level. I mean, it's painfully obvious when you do find it, but I must have run past it a dozen times after clearing the last section. The worst part is that this is at least my third playthrough of the game, so I don't know what was up. Probably explains a lot of my 16 hours :/

I clocked in at 10 hours and 30 minutes. The last boss was probably the easiest boss of the entire game. Maybe I was getting more powerful!

@Dhobo - Did you stop playing AFTER you finished the original game or did you keep playing and finish Post Mortem? I think Post Mortem is a part of the Plasma Pak expansion, so I was curious if you did stop when the original Blood game was done.

The other question for anybody that knows - how do you access the other expansion pack for this game?

With the GOG release, Cryptic Passage is a separate executable.

Whew - Finished the Plasma Pak and the original game. I looked at the Steam forums to figure out how to make Steam startup Cryptic Passage so that's tomorrow's adventure.

After this....Beyond Good & Evil!

Yeah, I ended up stopping at the end of the original game. I haven't touched either expansion yet.

NAM is another Build engine game on my list, so I decided to try it out today and wow, that game is HARD! If you think Blood is rough, you haven't seen anything yet. I thought about making a bounty for it, but not sure I could make it through, perhaps someone else could?

Finally done! woohoo!

Nicely done!
