  1. so many people show up on these shores asking like "favourite megawad? what megawad should i play?" that im sure creators alter their goals to compensate! the way i compensated was mapping less
  2. hop hop bunny bun

     

    (still thinking about "doom is manly. playing doom raises my testosterone high" and all it entails)

      imo replace doomguy with sabrina the skunk from early webcomics she resonates way more with me

       

      the gore stuff really turns me off lol i still think the chaingunner's animation is too much and i hate brutal doom, i play doom to indulge in what mappers wanna show me and am not into anyone's guro stuff

      that's hypocritical cos if anyone put other off-putting things into their work like pixel porn or horrible venting i would be so there

      haha I'm not personally into furry stuff at all, but I'd still play it.

       

      13 year old me thought the gore was cool, but for a long time now I would be fine without it. Chaingunner death is pretty extreme if you pay attention to it but I've seen it so many times that it doesn't really register as much other than a visual indicator of the thing not being a threat.

      Horrible venting sounds like a great idea for a wad lol. Push the sidedef count to the limit with letters as sector art.

      Doom resonates best with me when I'm struggling to not die horribly; I like feeling desperate over powerful. So agreed 100% with the above posts.

       

      As plums said, I think there is an inherent "guns and shooting things = macho" theme to be considered, although that's more from our raisings in societies that hold these antiquated beliefs than in the game itself. Idk that there is a way to remove the appeal to "manliness" in that regard without addressing the societal attitudes around it, but that's all well above my head. Instead I'll +1 to replacing doomguy with a magical anime girl protagonist and giving daisy the bun general more of a leadership role 😊 

  3. ^teehee we despoiled everything ahead of time! look, we poured sewage into the rivers on purpose! we set fire to the moors all the time already
  4. the entire combined military might of earth getting to map 5 then falling in love with the first hell knight
  5. absolutely smashed to pieces, confidence at almost negative levels, having dreams where i'm surrounded by my kinda people and can't talk to any of them \o/
  6. curse of monkey island the music is atmospheric and joyous, the voice acting is the only voice acting I think I actually like in games and there's a great crossfading system at play in the background
  7. i get the vibe yr going for, downloading <3 congrats on releasing your first thing
  8. it's hard to be anti-war when people construe stuff as being pro-war, for the opposite side

  9. mmm everyone's using ukraine as a big proxy war and shipping in as many weapons as they can, it kinda makes me nervous i hate power. i do have the power of being too old and having fucked up ankles and having listened to too many mark stewart songs though \o/ no military for me
  10. oooh what if they disowned oblivion and starfield and said they'd make daggerfall 2 edit: their fallouts are pretty awful too tbh
  11. something for the amiga 500 please. I don't mind if it takes a long time to load all the textures
  12. i love almost every map in doom2.wad but I think megawad structure itself is a slog. honestly need a port which saves and quits when you beat a map and doesn't let you open it again until tomorrow
