Bridgeburner56 Posted July 2, 2021 Soooooooo John Romero is coming on my podcast tomorrow and I'm gonna be picking his brain about level and game design. This will be done live on twitch. Details as follows! Date: Sunday 4th July (this will be Saturday for most people. I am future man) Time: 7am GMT+12 (roughly 24 hours from the time of this post) Streamed live here: https://www.twitch.tv/bridgeburner56 There will time for viewer questions at the end but I can't guarantee how much time there will be for that (half an hour minimum). You can pre ask them in my discord (there's a dedicated podcast questions channel) and these ones will be answered before any questions asked live on the day. We will do our best to get through them all though. https://discord.gg/hellforge If you miss the live streams this will be going in all the usual podcast places as well as the video will go up on YouTube. I will post links here once they are ready.

PeterMoro Posted July 2, 2021 Wow! That's awesome. I wonder if uncle John has ever seen any of your maps? I'm sure he'd be impressed. Looking forward to the podcast. 1 Share this post Link to post

jazzmaster9 Posted July 3, 2021 (edited) I got a few questions: The original Doom has influences from classic Sci-fi movies, arcade games and even Dungeons and Dragons. with the release of e1m4b, e1m8b and Sigil, What recent games or general Media have influenced their design? Cheers! also Has he played any recent Doom or Quake mods from the community? 0 Share this post Link to post

PeterMoro Posted July 4, 2021 (edited) Great interview! BridgeBurner asked some good questions. Uncle John gave same insightful answers. Best of all - SIGIL II for Doom II confirmed!!! AWESOME!!! 1 Share this post Link to post
antares031 Posted July 4, 2021 Just finished watching the VOD. It's so amazing to hear that Sigil 2 is ongoing, could be really great for the upcoming 30th anniversary of Doom in 2023. Lots of good stories about Doom, Quake, early games of John Romero, and stories about game development and multiplayer as well. Can't believe that Wolfenstein 3D's levels were made with the same level editor that Commander Keen used; making FPS levels with a 2D side-scroller level editor. Also, much appreciated for asking my question! It's good to know that John Carmack was actually the person, who scored the first frag in FPS history. It's technically a self-frag, but it still counts. XD 0 Share this post Link to post

Bridgeburner56 Posted July 4, 2021 Thanks everyone who tuned in to watch :D I'm still buzzing over the whole thing, it could not have gone better. Seems I scored a genuine scoop with the first public announcement of Sigil 2 being a thing. Was not expecting that (along with a Quake pack in the future). Super cool Apologies to anyone whose question we didn't get to. We actually went over time by about 45 minutes so I was pleased we got as much in as we did. The video is being tidied up now and once it is ready I'll post the links to both the YT video, and the podcast hosts. In the mean time here is the uncut VOD from the streamhttps://www.twitch.tv/videos/1075927769 11 Share this post Link to post
