Fucking this
Kevin Young
He is not Carmack.
Evan Mitchell
Whatever happened to that demo he said he was working on?
Ian Lewis
Yeah maybe romero should get into selling business attributes to the competition and google how to delete all traces.
Alexander Russell
hahahah Romero would be laughing at you pansies hahahah
Jordan Nelson
romero is a just a good mapper, Carmack is a god.
Gavin Taylor
The one he released as a doom 2 wad?

Not sure if retarded or bait

romero owns
Kevin Fisher
good maps are more important than good engines
Charles Campbell
No, that was stuff he released before he made the kickstarter. He said he'd be doing a demo when he cancelled the kickstarter.
Josiah Carter
He made some new Doom levels last year (they were actually really good).
Grayson Hill
just make a corridor with a good story
Thomas Morgan
He was banking on DOOM 4 getting trashed to kingdom fuck when it got a moderately positive reception. Even the niche crowd. Like a DXHR "oh I guess this isn't the worst thing either".
His own game was nothing the first time around, it was just his name on a slip of paper.
I'll have to give Daikatana a try, considering how much people just meme it out.
Daniel Cooper
What a bunch of turbonerds.
Grayson Moore
Video Game revival kickstarters in general aren't doing nearly as well as they used to, as consumer confidence in the concept has dropped significantly after all those blunders. The proposed Parapa spiritual successor also failed.
Samuel Rivera
Daikatana is on his resume
Carter Mitchell
According to John Romero, the best Doom mod ever is WolfenDoom: Blade of Agony.

Spector and Hall made their dream games while Romero fucked it up.

>cant even get your kickstarter funded
he put the kickstarter on hold or something until he had a proper demo/trailer, and it had already reached the goal before he did that

Peter Principle in action. Romero demostrated skill at level/game design. Therefore he should now be the head of a project? Of course he was probably gonna fail. Eidos then assumed the game had to be a hit, and then later did cost sunk thinking, throwing good money after bad.
He'd be perfectly fine as a director without this game. He'd need producers above him to keep him in line, and explain how his project plans were bad.

>I'll have to give Daikatana a try, considering how much people just meme it out.
No clue why he never went back to that to make a "Director's Cut" version that fixes the game's problems. It's an infamous game, so it might get some notability.
Mason Kelly
>wahhhh why won't Gen z donate money to a man to make million with their money instead of taking out a bank loan. Waahhhhhhh
Caleb Ortiz
Didn't he cancel the kickstarter because he decided he wanted to have a demo ready?
Or did he finish that and put another one up? If so, link please.
Lucas Sullivan
Gimme some context
Michael Young
he died recently, RIP
Xavier Garcia
You say that with the implication that inventing the fps genre is a good thing.
It's not.
Robert Gomez
>Invented the FPS
Yes, but another company invented all the shit that made them playable.
Nathaniel Turner
Thats because the old school style shooter is not as popular as people like to think.
