Thank you Mr Romero.
Blessed digits.

American minorities all feel like larpers. Mfers probably behave Yank as frick while going OOBBOBAAOBAOBAGOOWAWAWA once a year and apparently that's enough to honour your culture?
In DOOMGUY he talked about his cultural Mexican food, but nothing else, really. Oh wait, I think he said something about his hair too.
kek. this is the fricking butthole that ran a company like his personal club, hired his gf to be an executive and drove sports cars to work. he only meddled in projects and made them worse every time. the only good things to come out of his company were due to the hard work and creativity of much better people.
and now this smarmy prick is a native? get fricked you hack.
Based Romero YOLOing while others toiled their days away
And he's still one of the best level designers for DOOM. I kneel, Romero-sama.
Remember that mafia game he made some years back? It's funny how the old-timers sometimes lose the ball like that, even though they're supposedly so great and, awesome, and talented, and such.
>sometimes
does he have any other major success after doom?
daikatana
i guess it depends what your measurement of success is
it is very poorly received
He's been churning out dozens of mobile games (kind of similar to the work he did before Doom), which he's apparently pretty successful at.
But no one will trust him even with an AA budget and he refuses to self-finance.
What does it have to do with being a native or not? Are you implying that native americans can't be buttholes?
sounds native to me but does he have a drinking problem
hes actually a public fan of cocaine
very casino owning native behavior
Are we sure the question wasn't "What is your favorite drink?"
>My culture influences my level designs
????????????????????????????
What the frick does that even mean? Your "cultural" background determines if you put a baron on top of an elevator?
His kind did love to ambush one really pissed off white guy who would demolish them with a shotgun
Well I haven't seen you put a baron on top of an elevator.
You don't know me
he's right
it's just that his culture isn't native american
it's plain old american culture
Doom is a metaphor for fighting colonialism.
The demons are whites, that's it.
then why are most of them brown
Never trust a man who paints his nails
I trust a man who paints his nails more than I trust a man who has a brain mutation that makes him incapable of forgetting anything.
is he going to troon out?
You seen all the pro troony shit he constantly posts? 100% chance he transitions.
Make it 4 revenants and an archvile and then we’re cooking
where's the demo romero
Did he make anyone his b***h?
he bankrupted ion storm so i guess most of his employees
they did quite well, ion was worth it for anarchronox and deus ex alone
he only really fricked up his own game
deus ex success was largerly due to spector leading the project in a completely different city.
romero ran out of the dallas office, spector started an office in austin.
romero is listed as a level designer for anachronox in the credits, i doubt he had much input.
the damage from daikatana was already done, the game only sold like 40k, they were just able to get anachronox and deus ex out the door before budget cuts occured
exactly what i'm saying
he got spector and tom on board
and didn't tell them what to do or managed them in any way
he is good at convincing talented people to work with him
but he sucks at project management (and writing stories)
Yeah, the two games that weren't generic first-person shooters turned out well. He shouldn't have tried to compete with Carmack while still relying on Carmack's tech.
dont attribute any of deus ex' success to romero. he had no hand in it, and wasnt even in the same city.
>he had no hand in it
He personally recruited Spector's team.
broken clock is right twice a day
he never tried to compete with it, he outright licensed it
and anachronox is also quake2 engine
the problem is he tried to do 4 games as a single game with an amateur game and still claims it only failed because of internal sabotage, the man is idealistic to a fault
ion dallas closed right after anachronox. warrens office was allowed to stay open and made two more games.
so romero did make all of his subordinates his b***h at least.
and then he scammed paradox
Everyone who bought Daikatana. He went door to door.
>Those secrets doors? they're on a five minute timer, didn't reach them? Too bad b***h. Now you can't enter them
Less talk, more gas filling.
It's crazy how you can rise and fall and rise again. People who b***h about social mobility while cramming themselves with 12 dollar avocado toasts have no idea what they're talking about.
did he really work at gas station? i always thought this was a meme
no he collects gas station memorabilia. that's his autism
It's his collection. Imagine if you had the money to recreate that corner gas store you grew up buying 5 cent candies at.
>native-american heritage
>fire-chief gasoline
>Muh native heritage culture
>gas station fetish
Wait, hes an Abbo?
Native american gas made from native american oil.
yeah doom 2 is just a shit traphouse with overdone gimmicks
I love that "Ramero traps" are a thing. I love that this old hispanic gas station worker has managed to make a name for himself in the doom wad scene.
He might have revitalized the whole genre with that My House wad.
>DLC
>3 armored barons, 2 marauders, 4 pain elementals, 4 blood maykrs, 12 prowlers, 3 whiplash spectres, 7 pinkys, 9001 imps, 14 revenants, 2 tyrants, and an archvile because frick you
SIGIL 2 fricking sucked, move to Doom 2 already
>getting filtered by a melee enemy and two imps with extra health in doom
no matter what i will always be thankful to this man for bankrolling deus ex
>still dicking around with the Apple ][
64K of ram ought to be enough for anyone
Men look awful in long hair
Serious question, how much money do you think he has left from Doom and Quake?
Keep in mind he has spent a lot on his failed personal projects.
royalties means the money never ends, it just keeps coming. he's set for life
why was he working at gas station then?
I don't know the context of that photo
he wasnt, its a meme that autistic morons like you keep falling for
>gets kicked out from id cause he played too much deathmatch instead of working
kek
>in one last bid of desperation, Romero challenged Carmack to a best of three round of Doom II deathmatch: if he won, he'd be retained and if he lost he'd be fired on the spot
>After a few tense minutes Romero won handily but Carmack calmly reneged on the agreement stating that their deal was oral and non-legally binding
>Carmack then loaded Romero into his car and promptly drove to an animal shelter that was unfortunately familiar to the two of them, being the very same that put down the office cat Mitzi at Carmack's request for having the audacity to urinate on his leather couch
>Romero asked Carmack what they were doing at the location to which Carmack coldly replied "You have become unproductive and a net negative to our workflow John, I am merely removing you from my office and my life"
>Romero's life was thankfully spared, however, as staff at the shelter said they don't accept humans despite Carmack's insistence that Romero was biologically a "filthy animal of the primate persuasion"
90's id really was something else
carmack is a psychopath
ok john
Carmack is a psychopath.
i thought hes some old boomer now but hes not bad
>Carmack's insistence that Romero was biologically a "filthy animal of the primate persuasion"
holy fricking kek
It's incredible that he still has his hair. Good genetics, i suppose. Or hair transplants.
do bald indians even exist? they all look like a l'oreal ad, at any age.
Oh, yeah, true.
>Romero On 'Harmful' Stereotypes And Doom's Native American Inspiration
Even one of the father's of gaming is woke. Proofs that gaming has always been woke and never belong to right-wing incels crybabies.
youre seeing woke where its just last gasp of someone trying to stay relevant
Perfect Hatred was the best level in Thy Flesh Consumed
I recently played Sigil and some modded Quake levels and Sigil gameplay is so far ahead it's ludicrous. In fact, Quake while being great for architectural design has this freedom of movement that actually makes the gameplay worse. In Sigil, you feel shoulder-to-shoulder with demons, like in a telephone booth of hell. You get out of one situation and into the next by finding and shooting a switch, rinse and repeat. But it works so well. In fact it's better than any modern FPS but this is the case with most of high quality Doom mods as well.
tldr: better movement and ballistics actually made FPS games worse and were an evolutionary dead end.
> better movement and ballistics actually made FPS games worse and were an evolutionary dead end.
this is one part everybody misses about the few pros of daikatana as almost nobody played it and who did shit on it. If you go for agility the level up system makes movement feel really fricking good
>make a map where I put a baron on top of an elevator
>not native american, so get canceled for cultural appropriation
should have used a hell knight
Developed separately from the original game, the Game Boy Color version of Daikatana was designed as an adventure game at the request of creator John Romero. It was released in Europe in September 2000 and in Japan as a download for the Nintendo Power peripheral in May 2001; a planned North American release was cancelled due to the original version's negative reputation. The game received generally positive reviews, with critics regarding it as superior to the original Daikatana.
Which isn't hard considering Daikatana is just an incredibly bad game all around.
>look like mexican
>have mexican name
>be 1/548th cherokee
>My Native American culture is very important to me and influences everything I do
Fricking mutts.
everything south of the us border is native american raped by spaniards, save a few pure aryan Germans in Argentina
buenas noches, mein fuhrer!
Doom 2 fricking sucks and every level feels like gimmick shit. Even Doom 1 E3 onward loses a lot of the cool magic of the first 2 episodes.
watching the sigil 2 release QnA was pretty sad and eye opening. Romero really has a love for that time and the art that was made with Doom, Carmack has this kind of callous indignation at it but you can tell hes still nostalgic for that time.
>shotgunning barons: the wad
no thanks
