Captain Red Posted November 18, 2003 Have you met any of the following people: 1) The fundamentalist “God hates Doom” 2) The daytime TV obsessed housewife “I saw 60 Minutes once and it said Doom was bad” 3) The bastard child of 1 & 2 “Doom inspires School shootings, Drug taking and Satanism” 4) The utter dumbass “It’s Crap Coz it’s not new/ realistic” 5) A fun new one. 0 Share this post Link to post

mephisto00 Posted November 18, 2003 I have a friend, who thinks that doom is just CRAP and he hasn't even seen it. Oh wait, did I say "Friend"? 0 Share this post Link to post
Aleaver Posted November 18, 2003 Yeah, Those people that think doom sucks turn out to be people that I am not friends with. 0 Share this post Link to post
Fredrik Posted November 18, 2003 There's a guy, we were best friends for over ten years, then he told me he didn't like Doom, I told him I never want to see him again and that's it. 0 Share this post Link to post
DooMBoy Posted November 18, 2003 I remember telling some of my friends back in high school about Doom and Doom2, some of them hadn't even heard of the game, they thought it was brand new or something. 0 Share this post Link to post
sargebaldy Posted November 18, 2003 I had some Doomer friends back in the day. They've probably all moved on or stopped gaming by now. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ichor Posted November 18, 2003 "I hate Doom because I can't make it past E1M1." I've seen a couple like this before. 0 Share this post Link to post
sargebaldy Posted November 18, 2003 I was always pretty bad at Doom. For the first couple years of playing the shareware I always played on Hurt Me Plenty. 0 Share this post Link to post
DooMBoy Posted November 18, 2003 I always play normal Doom on UV, it's the best that way. 0 Share this post Link to post
Little Faith Posted November 18, 2003 Them: What type of games do you play? Me: Hmm, strategy, fps'es, some adventure, suck at them all ;). Them: Hmm, fps'es.. Counterstrike, or Unreal? Me: Nope, Doom. Them: Doom, but isn't that rather old? Do you have a slow computer? Me: No, I just happen to really like Doom. Them: Ooh, I see. You are one of those retrogamer types. I tell ya. Doom is not the real shit for you then. Wolfenstein is much older. Me: Hrrm, John Carmack made Hovertank while still at Softdisk and I think Catacombs 3D is older than Wolf too. Them: ?, I don't really think I wanna talk to you. 0 Share this post Link to post

Coopersville Posted November 19, 2003 My most recent experience was with a guy I was showing Doom 3 screenshots to. He said, "Doom sucks! Counter-Strike is way better!" I guess that applies under #4. 0 Share this post Link to post
Peter Heinemann Posted November 19, 2003 There are many people who will yell at you that Doom is not even released, heh. Me loves Doom ^_^ What I want to see when I judge a shooter or any game is that it is man made and that it reveals the way it was made. Like Doom, in which you can smell the paint that was used to make all the sprites and textures, all the teriffic artwork. Nothing against polygons and gl coronas, but I love old school Doom and Doom II most. 0 Share this post Link to post
pritch Posted November 19, 2003 Yeah increasingly any talk of Doom is met by people thinking I'm referring to Doom 3. Fags. If I know them well enough, I usually spank them. #4's usually then. 0 Share this post Link to post
