i dont get the whole realism in video games thing anyway. if you crave realism, go do that task you have been putting off. contemplate how you will work for someone else until you are old. catch a bad cold. reality is not fun.

the eugenics thing reminds me of the custom mutated mosquitos which were released in south america to combat disease. sounded like a great idea until it turned out to be just as much, if not more of a problem. point is, we do not have the knowledge to play god successfully, and trying to figure it out could very well kill us. maybe this makes me a luddite but id posit theres nothing wrong with a little humility.

fair enough. what is the best is dependent on many factors. if i was truly trying to be competitive in an rts or a fps where everyone else was playing on a keyboard and mouse i would probably do the same. i wont deny the advantage of the mouse. thats really what the debate is anyway, its mouse vs analog stick. and yea, the mouse is quicker and more precise. all a keyboard offers is 100+ buttons, which is ridiculous 99% of the time. usually i dont need the speed of the mouse or the buttons of the keyboard so the pros outweigh the cons.

if you can accept the slower pacing, and want to get into the atmosphere and single player experience then its worth it. if you think that doom is only one thing and any variation is not good then no. i was so excited for doom 3 when it was released that i basically drank all the koolaid and really enjoyed it. but its def a product of its time.

keyboard ergonomics suck not to mention they are unwieldy as all hell and require a desk or desk like enviornment. you people crack me up

which is what makes it unpopular. regardless, its pretty great if you can pull it off. m+k is fine if you need it.

wow

it is more comfortable, and therefore preferable, to sit on the couch and game with a good controller. m+k fanatics need to let it go. let it go man.

live in a castle and sustain my existence with the blood of the poor? if i had that little shame id run for office 😂

well we had a mac, it was a performa 6115 with a cdrom, and doom 2 was ported to the mac before ultimate doom was. my dad bought a bundle of marathon and doom2 from the macworld catalog we used to get in the mail every month. little did i know (i was 10 at the time), that at the last minute the mac port was delayed for almost a year. so i would come home from school every day looking for the box on the front porch. in retrospect, that year of waiting and hoping is probably why i love doom so much to this day.

the icon of sin is dead. i killed it for speaking. youre right there is dialogue esp in the latest one. i actually really enjoyed the audio logs in doom3, thought they were well done. i just wouldnt want the game to inspire a movie that made so much money that some higher ups decided that the next game had to be designed around the movie. video game movies are rarely good, but neither are games based on movies.

i decided bad doom movies are a good thing. what if the movie was awesome? pretty soon youd have doom games with voice acting and movie character buddies. fuuuuuk that shit.

seeing companies like disney and blizzard grovel to the cpc makes me sick. assholes have no gd tegridy. the cpc is a nightmare and i ban them.

This should probably be in the doom eternal section. But... I have to say I really appreciate Bethesda not fucking up doom yet. Let the guys deliver a finished product. It will be worth it for everyone in the end.
