If you could create a Doom comedy/sitcom, what would it be and which existing series would it take inspiration from?
Era Di Cate replied to DavetheDoomguy's topic in Doom General
Okay but... Doom sit-com but it gets progressively ridiculous like "Family Matters". At first it's just lowkey family sit-com thingy, but its working in UAC. Whoever gets to replicate Urkel makes weird experiments and brings in more and more mess into the UAC that in the end Doom happens and Hell invades, show is over. But due to popularity with viewers the writers write up a new season with what happens after Hell invades, and it's even more cheesier than ever. -
I know the original "Space Hulk" (DOS, 1993) is a sort of a FPS, it has a first-person element, but it would be ballin' to make it a actual Doom-like FPS, perhaps way slower than Doom, but definitely more control and handling on the "personal" side of it.

I guess, free speech doesn't necessarily mean "without consequences", but could there hypothetically be a situation, a space, a concept where free speech would be "without consequences" 100% of the time, while also being relevant and heard-able? Like a platform of sorts? The second part of my question exists because if it didn't, it would be hecka easy to just say "yeah, just put a box over your head first".
-
Great stuff, chief! Anyone know where can you find more of these?
-
Strife is actually kinda fun, I certainly imagined it to be a cheesy comic-book-sorta game. I don't vibe with Hacx though, for some reason, it weirds me out all-around.
-
Sounds like something a xeno would say hmmmm.
-
Ahh, geeze, it's been a while! I haven't Doom-ed in so long, lol.
What's new with me? Ahh, nothing really. Rather, you guys tell me what's up, how yall doin'? :3 -
Hi everyone!

Oh snap, got any assumptions on why?
Well, to be honest, most of my notifs these days involved your postings, might be something about that ;)
-
Pretty bizarre. I don't think anyone else got that without it being obvious. Your posts were pretty innocent when i last viewed them. Bad luck i guess :/
-
Yeah. I'm not exactly the type of guy who would shitpost offensive and edgey topics, but enjoy chatting and having thought-provoking threads.

I know, I know, obvious question, asked 400 times already, but I guess this question could use a refresh here and there. I was wondering about the "legal technicalities" with using MIDIs. Just what kind of MIDIs are allowed? And I am not asking about the aesthetics, the style or any musical stuff. Say, are those: 1. Well done MIDIs from those midi-downloading sites, 2. MIDI covers of pop songs (or from movie/game soundtracks), 3. Edited versions of certain MIDI songs, allowed to be used with wads, and then posted on /idgames or whatever without any repercussions? I have a feeling that even if these are allowed, I am supposed to credit the artist, right? But what if I can't credit him? Thank you for your time.

Thanks for your input everybody, but I still have a question: (self quoting feels so pretentious)

I'm new to Doomworld. Any helpful advice?
Era Di Cate replied to Starkiller's topic in Electionchat Elsewhere
Well, my forte is Half-Life, any of it in the franchise, official, non-official, mods, literally, Goldsource/Source, I know that stuff in and out. So adding onto it, literally every other shooter you had mentioned in your comment. Although, Deus Ex didn't really look much like a shooter to me, but eh. My "soft spot" would be wRPGs: "The Elder Scrolls" mainly (all the games except the weird spinoffs and the mobile games), but also Fallout, Arcanum, Planescape: Torment, isometrics like that, and my guilty pleasures mainly lie in crack mods, such as the good ole Crack-Life for hl1. You might be asking what am I doing here then? Well, I myself still have no answer to this question. -

Era Di Cate replied to Starkiller's topic in Electionchat Elsewhere
I'm also a newbie (although a one whom forgets Doomworld quite often), what kind of shooters do you play, Starkiller? Do you have a favorite shooter? -
Now what was it what I wanted to tell? Ah yeah, school slowed down for a bit finally. Really, really, looking forward to working on my map again, I might be able to just do it tomorrow >:3
I think it's kinda proper to continue since I had exercised so many ideas onto paper already.
And to make your click worth it, here, have this chill beat I found whilst journeying across the ever-vast and dangerous expanses of the world wide web.

At more than once I wondered: "Is this what people around me listen to? How can they tolerate me like this?!". What is worse, however, is recording your own singing voice. Those who had done it, know it. Those who haven't done it, are blessed and innocent.

Doom 3 got me into Doom, lol. That puts me in the second generation I guess. Can't be first (too young, Half-Life is one year older than me), yet I got into Dooming and everything before Doom 2016 was even announced :)
-
Yup, I am still one of those Half-Life cultists who see it as the peak embodiment of shooters and the big, proper step in the evolution of the genre took when it did. To even mention all of the reasons as of why I worship the franchise would take a while, and it would look as if I was hired by Valve to sell you the games, so I am leaving that out. Doubtlessly, other members here mentioned the good points Half-Life covered. Either way, I myself tried fiddling with the Goldsource engine, made a house or two before stopping and just continuing on my hunting-gathering spree for all the Half-Life content, either official or community-made, mods, maps, art, name it, and I probably got it. Truly, there are a lot of maps out there on the frontier. And in so far I enjoyed even the worst ones. There wasn't any mod I disliked so far (except for "The Gate"(?) and the overly-edgy "Half-Quake" series), I enjoy all the aspects and concepts that people draw out of Half-Life and the Goldsource engine. All in all, I would lie if I rated the entire concept under 10/10. Would recommend to everyone, maybe go so far to say it's mandatory, but that is probably my excessive fangirl-ism speaking.

Hah, maybe this weekend I will start mapping again. Had been looking forward to it, but now I have to try and make up for the lost hours of sleep. This week was filled with a lot of things insofar, and it's not even the end of it yet.
Been thinking and sketching up some interesting things in school, don't want to reveal them though :3 I would, but the thing is, I dunno if it would work or not so I am just going to leave it as secret, for the extra dramatic effect. Of course, I was talking about mapping, if that has brought upon you a suspicious .
I really need to sleep.

I still don't understand how people get nostalgic for a piece of media or something, willing to travel back in time only to play some video games or listen to some music. I mean, I understand the "magical first experience" thing, but still, to travel back in time only to play games, to me it sounds kinda... shit? And this is apparently a normal thing so that is what I wanted to ask without making a thread about it. Other than that, I used to have excessive amounts of acrophobia as a kiddo (but somehow got over it, or reduced it), but the worst part is that I consistently called it "aerophobia" until I saw the definition in a dictionary. And to think, just how many times I "corrected" other people for saying "acrophobia"...

Was Doom Absent from Ready Player One?
Era Di Cate replied to UnholyShadows's topic in Electionchat Elsewhere
Wait it's already out?! Holy shit, I know what I am doing this week then! Other than that... I think Duke Nukem was in there somewhere, as I had seen from the trailers, or from a video showing all the references in the trailers, like in a blink-and-you-miss it screenshot from the trailers... I don't think I can talk any more about the movie without watching whole first. -
So I fucked up. I got nostalgic for Daggerfall, and instead of continuing my progress on the map, I delayed it yet again so I can beat up some pixels using a pixelated warhammer and feel good about it.
(at this point I doubt anyone cares for the map, if so, then no problem for me, I can continue playing without feeling pressure :D )
-
Believe it or not, I actually have an easy life because of this. How many times did I dodge actually being ill, by feeling I could get ill whilst near such situation. It's more of a blessing, I guess /s
-
I've come to realize some art styles can make me feel sick, say, in video games or movies or shows or whatever. Mostly with games. There had been points in my life I willfully skipped over what some people claim to be "pure gold" because their art-style made me feel ill, and I would rather play something else. For example, just watching a clip of "Hello Neighbor" on Youtube made me want to play HDTF. I think HDTF is shit. No, I know HDTF is shit. But there is something so stupid/disturbing/weird that makes me never want to lay my eyes on "Hello Neighbor" again, and that same something makes me want to pick the most trashy game of 2018 and play that instead (even though I don't have the game, I just watched the streams). I guess my sense of distaste is weird, or something.

Adding onto most of these points mentioned above (with regards to the engine and such), some moar weapons: - Short range flamethrower (the beggar's plasma rifle, five times longer chainsaw, with afterburn). - Another pistol for dual wielding (somehow change the chaingun so that dual pistols can be a legit gameplay tactic instead of a replacement). - Grenades, like in actual Doom 3, for some arc-following explosions and crowd controlling (making rocket launchers a good counter for single more buffed monsters and having the grenades deal with small hordes of mobs). - Having another melee weapon (besides the fists) and adding "ammo" for the chainsaw (and buffing the chainsaw so that it's worth it's fuel >:) ). Possible enemy: - A enemy that would be the same as a Hell Baron is for imps but for the poor pinkies (a melee walking door basically). - A stationary turret-like enemy (possibly a hellish, flesh-infused-with-the-floor monster or a possesed turret). - Some tiny assholes similar to the robo-spider thingies in Strife, who you wouldn't notice until they are already on you. - Probably a summoner-type of enemy which instead of reviving peeps like Archvile does, it just spawns in lower-tier enemies to charge at you (imps and pinkos), something akin to the Icon Of Sin, maybe call it a "Fragment"? Where the story would take place and how the plot goes, I currently have no idea. But, I guess, with my ideas, Doom can be a bit more colorful than usual.
