Gfted1 Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 An announcement for an announcement? My geek lore isnt high enough to recognize anyone but I assume some programmer is coming back from a long walk? "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Meshugger Posted April 21, 2016 Author Posted April 21, 2016 An announcement for an announcement? My geek lore isnt high enough to recognize anyone but I assume some programmer is coming back from a long walk? It's one of the founders of ID Software (in the middle): He left after Quake in order to create his life long dream: Daikatana. The rest is history. 2 "Some men see things as they are and say why?""I dream things that never were and say why not?"- George Bernard Shaw"Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man."- Friedrich Nietzsche "The amount of energy necessary to refute bull**** is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it." - Some guy
Keyrock Posted April 21, 2016 Posted April 21, 2016 (edited) My geek lore isnt high enough to recognize anyone but I assume some programmer is coming back from a long walk? Adrian Carmack and John Romero were 2 of the 4 founders of Id Software. Adrian left Id and the games industry in 2005. John left Id in 1996 and created one of the most famous flops in vidya games history with Daikatana and is probably best knows in meme form these days because he was going to make us his bitches and make us suck it down, but before that he was the designer of Wolfenstein 3D, Hexen, Doom, and Quake.

HoonDing Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 Romero and the perennial mullet. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
213374U Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 Misread that as "Mightworkgames.com", not terribly reassuring. I'll probably throw money at it, though. Can't be worse than Doom 2016... right? - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
Keyrock Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 Best of luck to them, I'd definitely like to see what 2 of the pioneers of FPS come up with. That said, it's being crowdfunded and I'm done with crowdfunding, so I'll pass. If and when it gets released, I'll consider it then.
