I'm 25, juts getting into the part of my life where i'm realizing that this year (hopefully) i'll stop being an undergrad student and become a fully fledged engineer, with responsibilities, an office and all that. It sucks.
I believe that i met doom when a cousin of mine brought it to my home, around the year 1995-96. In those years, internet was just getting affordable for an average family here in Chile, (and i did not got access to the web until, say, 1999, from a stolen account no less. Only in 2003 i got a connection of my own), so gaming news were pretty much spread by word, or magazines. At the time, all i played was SNES. After i finished playing doom (doom 2. For some reason, ultimate doom never ran on my 486), i pretty much moved on to other games (again, SNES games. Until i first used internet, PC gaming was an unknown world to me), and only recently (2004, maybe) i discovered the doomsday engine, thus, re-discovering doom 2, ultimate doom (which now ran on my P4! how exciting!) and a couple of wads that i had never heard of (Plutonia and Evilution). Then, in 2007 i discovered DoomBuilder, and little later i discovered that GZdoom had dynamic lightning capabilities, same as doomsday (I like my games shiny, so i never went for zdoom. I find it ugly), thus, discovering a shitload of pwads (i knew some pwads before this, but given that there are so few doomsday-specific pwads out there, all i played were vanilla doom pwads). And here i am now, wasting time on my office writing this little memory when i should be working.
