John Romero, aka the God of FPS, thinks the latest Wolfenstein game is the best yet.
How does that make you feel, seeing how reception was mixed overall, and bad on Sup Forums?

I agree with him. Mixed reception is mostly because of Sup Forumstards (although there are a few good criticisms too, don't get me wrong)

Anyways, what happened to that kickstarted game he wanted to make? I know they didn't get the funding, but I thought he was gonna do it anyways and try again later.

>John Romero
His opinions are worthless since he failed to make anyone his bitch 20 years ago.

What the fuck do I care what some shitty zombie film director thinks about FPS?

John Romero hasn't been relevant for twenty years, and the one time he tried to make himself relevant again he failed spectacularly. Only thing his opinions are valid for are level design philosofies.

He rented an office building, got employees, got an artist, registered a company, moved to Ireland, etc, and then made the Kickstarter. And within a few hours stopped the Kickstarter, saying its not getting funded fast enough, and that he'll try again when he has the demo. Not a word since.
I think he cut his losses with that project.

>dude nazis are back lmao
Same as it ever was.

That's interesting, still don't want to play though.

I suspect that part of it was him banking on the new Doom coming out and being shit, the fact that that is apparently actually a good game kind of screwed him.

where's black room you lazy fuck

>PLEASE PLEASE PLEEEEEASE BUY OUR GAME
No.

>old people have shit opinion
I'm so surprised

Surely Doom being good can only benefit him unless the project is actually a story focused nu-fps in disguise like Doom almost became.

and? DAE LE NAZIS ARE THE GOOD GUYS

the fuck

>tfw Carmack is still going strong while Romero is an absolute joke nowadays

Nah, it just wasn´t very good.
And yes, I played and finished it.

>one of the best level designers of his era
>praising one of the dullest FPS with some of the most boring fucking levels and unbalanced difficulty of recent years

Excuse me?

>kek new doom wasn't even made with Carmack on board and he's still getting cucked by it just like the old days of him waiting for carmacks latest engine

Literally nothing wrong with shooting nazis.

Why should I listen to the opinion of a gas station attendant?

>It's a good game if you don't like it it's becuase your a natsee (◠◠)

>blaming a tibetan cave painting website's LARPer board because your 4 hour game didn't sell

>Romero
>god of anything

Carmack, you ape. Carmack is the god.

That's George Romero you dumbass.

>tfw Carmack is still going strong while Romero is an absolute joke nowadays

I haven't read the development bios for a while but I do remember that Carmack basically did the real hard work of the engines and shit and Romero was more of the brilliant idea guy. Carmack also had to fucking destroy a door so he could reach Romero to make him work because he was locked in his room playin' Doom all day. Romero was a leech in a way.

I hated the game more for being positive about the commies and how fucking garbage the story was compared to TNO.
>inb4 you didnt play it
TNO was my GOTY of 2014, and I still fucking hated this piece of shit.

It's not a shitty game or anything, but it's not incredible or anything, just an ok game. Not as good as TNO imo either.

Immediately makes me think of Daikatana and that time he made me his bitch...

>essentially the same game was my favorite and GOTY
>but this version triggered muh feels so i hate it

>tfw Carmack is still going strong while Romero is an absolute joke nowadays
The sad part is that he's still a pretty damn good level designer, but he'd rather make shitty ass mobile games than actually put his talent to use.

It's definitely not better than The New Order.

Romero was the main brain of the two before they started id (he had more experience programming when they met and was more easygoing which allowed them to recruit the other Carmack and Tom Hall), but Carmack left him behind pretty quickly.

...or that stupid Anti-Trump taco truck game his wife's son helped create.

Gameplay is fucking God tier yet EVERYONE ONLY CARES ABOUT THE CUTSCENES AND GAY STORY REEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I don't remember TNO having every level set in a strict and repetitive corridor with such an unbalance of hitscan damage. Not a single level in TNC stands out or is memorable. Also not a single boss fight or any unique encounters or setpieces.
Also if you think commies are the good guys then kill yourself, humongous faggot. Those fuckers ruined my country.

By the time Carmack was working on video games, he already had experience developing video card drivers though. He was poached from a senior programmer job to join idsoft

The guns are fun to shoot but the abuse of hitscans and terrible levels ruin what could have been atleast a fun game.

Also the story was 50/50 to gameplay and if it sucks then it IS an issue.

>i am mad about events that took place before i was born
lel

I can't say I remember the details but Masters of Doom definitely mentions that Carmack treated Romero as the superior programmer when they met.

Some of the dialogue was incredibly forced, like pic related.

Oh I remember now, they met in that other company. Basically Carmack got a job at some company, Romero was already there. And years later they formed their own company.
So Romero was senior to Carmack, but not at idSoftware, rather at the other non-vidya company they worked in.

Wolfenstein 2 wasn't that bad....

But Grace made me want to join the fucking Nazis just to bloody kill her

"People who didn't like the game were Sup Forums neo nazis"

LOVE TRUMPS HATE

Actually romero accidentally locked himself in his office and carmack freed him with his battle axe because why not. but that's just nitpicking.

Well he also made Daikatana, so there.

>dude nazis are black lmao

Anyone who thinks Nazis are a real threat today only give that small minority of them more power through validation and confirmation they exist. Communism is more of a problem than anything to do with Nazis today.

>white

Only commies that didn't crash and burn spectacularly are Vietnam, which are our friends. We tamed communism.

The whole game was forced. TNC shouldn't exist, it's a parody of itself. Really wish Third Reich won and we would have the reverse Wolfenstein with no political correctness, just good plot and gameplay.

This is truly the worst timeline.

Good news that Romero doesn't think Nazis are a real threat today, then!

We need a game where you get to kill commies and Joseph Stalin. Let's reboot Command and Conquer: Red Alert.

But thats exactly what Romero says.

It's a joke, my neuro-atypical friend.

Who is that semen demon

>Anyone who thinks Nazis are a real threat today only give that small minority of them more power through validation and confirmation they exist.
>Communism is more of a problem than anything to do with Nazis today.
Imagine how little self-awareness it takes to write these two sentences right after each other.

I love how this is supoosedly an anti-racist game, but your partner is the most stereotypical black power civil rights afroed mama jama they could possibly come up with, and about 40 years late to the party with her fashion sense. These people think in nothong but stereotype.

Gameplays not bad, but who wants to eat a beef sandwich with shit loaf for bread, and dairrhea for sauce, and toilet paper for lettuce?

Nazis have not been a problem at any point during your lifetime. You have not seen a single real life nazi since the day you were born. Acting as if you have strong feelings towards them is nothing but virtue signalling.

I liked when nazis were just cartoonishly evil guys to shoot. Why the fuck must killing them 'mean' something?

I dont even care about the politics, the game itself is just a bland shooter, I seriously dont see the appeal at all.

Venezuela says hi, as does idk, China.

Your sister.

Who is against shooting nazis other than nazis?

>your partner is the most stereotypical black power civil rights afroed mama jama they could possibly come up with, and about 40 years late to the party with her fashion sense
The game doesn't take place in the real world, and in the current year?

>shit analogy
Never mind, just die.

If this is my sister then i want to make forbidden love to her.

Moar

No, it's not. It was just an incredibly stilted scene and dialogue, like much of the game.

Venezuela's economy is like 2/3 private, and it is suffering a very bad recession.
So its neither communist nor doing well.

>washed up game designer doesn't want to disown his brainchild so just rides the wave of whatever's popular
Shooting Nazis is A-Okay, only a nigger would disagree. Politics is not OK, Romero is just doing this to stay relevant.

Same here man

Though I also think gay marriage should be redacted, abortion should be illegal, interracial relationships an equal to incest, Workers is a term for exploitation of your employers and global warming doesn't exist. But I am not a nazi.

Nazis killed ten people last year.

Who is this girl

Workers Rights*

People who hate playing the same game they played 20 years ago, execpt with a retarded political agenda attached.

Does the year the game takes place change the fact that the non-racist game devs created probably the most racist caricature of 2017? Or that ultimately, playing as the nazis would be infinitely more satisfying and fresh at this point than another bland "muh nazi super soldier" hallway shooting fest?

Is she a gnatsie

A political organization called Communist Party of China organizes the kidnapping, torture, murder and sale for organs of people who follow certain spiritual schools of thought.

If you asked George Lucas what he thinks of TLJ he would say it's great too, doesn't mean it is.

When a journalist comes at you and asks these kinds of questions it's less a question of what you think and more a thinly veiled threat that you better answer how they want you to.

2/3 private doesnt mean shit when the government officials gave themselves and their cronies that capital. More aptly put, "private" ownership, with a centrally planned economy.

>No, it's not.
Yes, it is, you literal sperg.

Why? Why is it a joke?

Name them.

The car doesnt count, that happened hours after the rally during a state of emergency. Neither does the helicops.

Dont forget the antifa who tried shooting a senatorial whip, or the guy who punctured rand pauls lungs. Or the portland stabber. Or the antifa train derailers. Or firebombers. Etc.

Nigga Venezuela is more privately owned than France. Put in the context of Europe, it would be one of the LESS socialist countries. Put in the context of the USA it wouldn't be the most "socialist" state.
The revolution there promised to be socialist, but never delivered on it, they are just paying lip service and pretending.

The original post claimed Venezuela is socialist and successful, a good example. In reality its neither socialist, nor successful. Its a failed state with a mostly market economy, and irrelevant to the discussion at hand.

Not in America though. You have not seen a single real life member of the Communist Party of China since the day you were born. Acting as if you have strong feelings towards them is nothing but virtue signalling.

Also China is state capitalist by now anyway, the name is vestigial.

>FPS in 2017
>no multiplayer
you don't need an internet bogerman to explain why this game failed

"Why it's more relevant now"

This is why its bullshit. How is it more relevant now? I'd say it's less relevant because Nazis used to be (like racists) an actual defined group of people that were bad.

Now everyone that isn't batshit liberal crazy is a Nazi and racist, making it less relevant.

>a nigger would disagree that shooting Nazis is good

Did you forget your meds, user?

>You have not seen a single real life member of the Communist Party of China since the day you were born.
I saw and spoke to a Chinese diplomat on a book release party, get rekt. Also I'm from Bulgaria, not the USA, and my anti-communist feelings are quite tame and calm, you were originally arguing with someone else.

Because he's not thinking about what he's saying in his anger so he says something he gleaned from his new black allies without stopping to think if it's appropriate

>Vietnam was successful communism
Vietnam is a shithole, FYI.

>literally who thinks [opinion]
wow amazing stuff OP really makes me think

He's trying to impress them in an awkward show of bullshit.

>John Romero
>literally who
Best be joking, nigger.

>Nazis killed ten people last year
wow a whole ten people?

>The car doesnt count, that happened hours after the rally during a state of emergency.
wut, that doesn't even make sense, it's not like the guy stopped being a Nazi afterwards
Here's a list

>Dont forget the antifa who tried shooting a senatorial whip, or the guy who punctured rand pauls lungs. Or the portland stabber. Or the antifa train derailers. Or firebombers. Etc.
Ha, yeah, because anyone who does anything bad is antifa now. Antifa misplaced my stair-muffin! Antifa, antifa, ANTIFA!

There's a reason why it bombed.

There's also a reason why his non-id games are garbage. He has no talent and can't tell a good game from a bad one.

Romero was always a joke.

>>one of the best level designers of his era

Because of 1 game?

>Romero was more of the brilliant idea guy

Fun fact: Tom Hall, of Deus Ex fame, was the actual creator of both Wolfenstein 3-D and the original Doom. He left midway through the development of the latter and Carmack and especially Romero took the opportunity to fool everyone into thinking Doom was their idea because Hall was no longer around to say otherwise.

Not true. Hall was RUNNING that bitch until he quit. Romero is a hack and Daikatana proved that.

M8, it's still the exact same definition, sorry to hear you apparently fit it now. Maybe try to avoid that.

Actual jew here.

My take on this shit: Wolf 2 was the worst game of 2017. If you think it has anything to do with politics you're an idiot.

I wanted to compare self-professed communist ruling parties with self-professed fascist ruling parties, but it seems the latter don't exist.
Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems that communists seem to be a more real thing than fascists. I mean, at least you can point to where they rule.

I don't think they're listening at that point but either way you have to admit the awkwardness is intentional.

Socialism is never "socialist" same with communism. But the point stands that Venezuala is not capitalist, those in power did not arrive there through capitalist means. Its the unholy alliance of corporations and government subsidy.

Literally who?

Romero probably plays with a revolver every night before he goes to bed, wishing he was as relevant as Carmack

why can't males convert faggot this is bullshit let me into the sekrit club

What is her name, wanna look up her.
