On 3/5/2023 at 2:32 PM, Man of Doom said:Contrary to popular belief, Doom Annihilation was not intended to be an ashcan copy outright, as director Tony Giglio mentioned that he had worked on the script as far back as 2014/2015 (long before The Legend of the Doom Slayer came along). However, his script was ultimately relegated to the "direct-to-video" pile, and the budget was much smaller than it should've been. The end result is a Doom movie that's actually not that bad in the writing department but likely would've been given more of a chance if it had a much larger budget (apparently, demons like Pinkies were also supposed to show up and the original antagonist would've been the Bruiser Brothers).
A silver lining here is that apparently a sequel is on its way to being greenlit and Gregor Punchatz has expressed interest in joining that.I've been trying to tell people this the whole time (especially Reddit), Annihilation wasn't some malicious attempt to defile the franchise, it was a passion project that kinda went sideways. It probably wouldn't have had much backlash if not for certain Tweets and the fucking annoying casual community 2016 spawned. I'm both glad and scared out of my goddamn mind that there's a potential sequel.

Looking back at this thread after so long, I sorely wish the actual game was anything like the leaks mentioned here. Everyone expected the game to be a lot more story-driven based on the trailers, but the plot we actually got was no more "background" than 2016's.

The only microtransactions for Eternal are for past skins and profile items that have previously been offered for free several times before and are now offered for a relatively small fee for those who missed out, they're not locking anything crucial behind paywalls or anything like "new" skins

Doom 1 was planned to have a hidden Ms. Pac-Man secret level as a "sequel" of sorts to Wolf3D's Pac-Man secret level, but this was axed the moment John Carmack used his powers to see into the future and discovered the eventual royalty issues that would concern Ms. Pac-Man in the late 2010's-early 2020's

Also, there was the fact that there was stolen copyrighted content in the earliest versions (those aren't archived for that reason)

2 hours ago, Koko Ricky said:There's enough similarity between the Genesis Sonic sprites that I believe they just reworked most of them for Sonic 3. However, the special stage for both 2 and 3 feature some pretty obviously prerendered sprites designed to look like traditional pixel art.

Following on from this, I think the only way it can be salvaged is if they pull a "legacy character" thing post-TAG2 and have someone who's "just a guy" again earn the title of "Doom Slayer"

Actually, I think I've heard that Sonic's sprite in 3 is actually pre-rendered but it's so heavily compressed and post-processed that it looks all hand-drawn?

The Dark Lord twist is the icing on the shit cake of the Slayer lore throwing all of Doomguy's "just a guy" aspects in the trash

Hello? Is this thing still on?
Anyways, I've got this horrid issue with the sound mixing in 2016. Everything just sounds "in the wrong place", like there's an exploding overhead pipe in Foundry that sounds like it's two rooms ahead of you rather than right above you like it actually is. Not to mention the unfair deaths I've suffered because I was unable to hear a Baron that was right behind me.
How the hell do I fix this? There's no "advanced sound options" tab in the settings and changing renderers didn't fix it (obviously it wouldn't, but I thought it was worth a shot).
My sound card is a Sound Blaster Z, but I've been having this issue on my old build with the on-board audio jacks.

1 hour ago, xvertigox said:Woah, this is fantastic, it's not even on the Doomwiki. This needs to be compiled into a cbr (and pdf) so it can be read with comic readers but that shouldn't be too hard.
...It wasn't?
