noshutdown Posted June 25, 2015 if there is any chance of an interview, i would like to know if he would ever go back to work at id, or back into developing game engines again. and i wonder if he missed the days working with his old friends. 0 Share this post Link to post
GreyGhost Posted June 25, 2015 Carmack is also here, but hasn't posted for ages. 0 Share this post Link to post
Quasar Posted June 25, 2015 Tales of visitors to id Software state he'd rarely if ever come out for a greet so I doubt he wastes a lot of time on internet forums and the like either. He was also notoriously difficult to get an email response from at times. You nearly had to piss him off to get a terse one-liner :P 0 Share this post Link to post

VGamingJunkie Posted June 25, 2015 Speaking of the original team, what's Tom Hall up to these days? Even if he had disagreements with the team on what Doom should be, I think he deserves some credit. 0 Share this post Link to post

Carmack doesn't really like interviews either. His work ethic is legendary and he is very reluctant to do anything except coding, unless something has changed. 0 Share this post Link to post

I think he recently revisited something like this http://notch.net/2014/09/doom/ And he and Romero have been trying about the idea of working together on something... 0 Share this post Link to post
