a shit game overhyped by its douchey creator

Is still a shit game, and how obnoxious was -and still is- the most of the backlash is irrelevant.

Better than 80% of FPS that followed.

I never played it, but I think it's unfortunate that it basically ended Romero's career. From what I've read, though, his team at Ion Storm acted like rock stars and really mishandled their time.

Excellent soundtrack, that's all I know.

Carmack doesn't design video games.

>>587380
He does, occasionally. Quake 3 Arena was supposedly a product of him slapping the design guys around.

Design is law bitches

I find it amazing how often the sound is completely divorced from the quality of the rest of the game (usually in the positive direction). Good games only rarely have shit sound, but shit games often have some awesome soundtracks. I like to think the musician just sequesters himself away from the shit, and reminds himself that he's putting this on his resume...

I never noticed it said 'Suck it down' at the bottom, jesus christ.

>design is law

Thank you. I completely forgot how much we used to make fun of that.

Design is not law. Design is a suggestion at best. Code and art assets are law.

Strange how somebody like KEMCO could make something better than the guy who was a big part in games like doom and commander keen(i think?).

Wish they were still around.
