kmxexii Posted June 3, 2014 http://doomwads.tumblr.com/ I made this awhile ago when I saw someone on NeoGAF complain that my blog wasn't in Tumblr. You might have noticed it if you frequent my blog and saw the feed in the upper-right hand corner of the site. It still isn't Tumblrized (I won't do that), but my goal is to update it whenever my blog updates, whether it's a new post or a stealth-update like new screenshots or additional levels like Pirate Doom bumps. At the very least, you can enjoy the screenshots! 1 Share this post Link to post
Phml Posted June 3, 2014 Read title as "Doomed" being the name of a particular PWAD that was going to be reviewing Tumblr. Well, this topic is a little disappointing. :p 0 Share this post Link to post

clamgor Posted June 4, 2014 Well, this gives WAD reviews a bit of a modern look, huh? Still doesn't beat the look of nostalgic 90's-esque simple-html webpages. But the modernity of it does make it easier to navigate. 0 Share this post Link to post
Snakes Posted June 4, 2014 All this really did was remind me to play KBOOM again... So uh, mission accomplished in my eyes! 0 Share this post Link to post

Memfis Posted June 4, 2014 Is it possible to make so all posts would begin at the same ummm... height? I think this really hurts the readability. 0 Share this post Link to post

I changed it to grid recently to see whether I liked it or not but yeah it does look like an eyesore without any kind of equal spacing. Switched it back to a normal single column. 0 Share this post Link to post
Zed Posted June 4, 2014 It looks really cool. One thing I like about Tumblr is the visual impact it creates at first sight. Congratulations And it's been a while since I visited your blog last time. It's great to see that you already started with the reviews on Odessa. I'm eagerly waiting for the other ones. 0 Share this post Link to post

Odessa has been ready to be posted for awhile but I like pacing my reviews. The fact that it, KBOOM, and the UCA series had been sitting in the queue forever got to me so it's getting mainlined. 0 Share this post Link to post
234233424 Posted June 4, 2014 Very cool reviews and nicely taken screenshots. I'm also on Neogaf, did you post in that big doom community thread? 0 Share this post Link to post

No, someone linked my review blog and I followed the link back through my Blogger traffic source thing to the thread in question. I don't think I even knew NeoGAF existed until then TBH 0 Share this post Link to post

With that being said, I'm an avid Doom fan. I adore Doom WADs and never go a day without playing one. I just saw your Tumblr and I really, really, REALLY like it. I could read your reviews for hours. They're so comprehensive and thorough. I hope you're always able to make them, because as long as you are - I'll never stop reading them. 0 Share this post Link to post

It's good to see the Tumblr blog drawing in a larger audience. As for whether reviews continue indefinitely, I hope I don't get burned out so bad that I end up stopping for good, but I've come back from breaks before! Supercool user-created content keeps bringing me back. 0 Share this post Link to post

234233424 Posted June 10, 2014 I think I might copy your idea and make a Wad review tumblr of my own. I originally wanted to review via video on youtube but I don't think that'd work out. 0 Share this post Link to post

I've got a list of single player wads of 2013 I'm trying to play through and upload all playthroughs at the moment. I figure I would cut and snip them later to review each one. 0 Share this post Link to post
