Watching John Carmack on the Joe Rogan Experience.

[HOT DOG]

This is the guy you were all over before Gabe Newell came into the picture?



And now he's one of Mark Zukkkerbergs boys,



I don't know what to say anymore.


I'm kind of butt hurt right now.

John carmack and John Romero founded id software and helped influence tons of video games. I've never really cared for John carmack.

John Romero almost always fascinates me though. I keep waiting for him to lose his mind again and decide he is a gaming Rockstar again.

I wonder if somebody could talk cliffy b into stoking those fires. We need a daikatana 2.

That's an odd way of spelling Lawbreakers Remastered

I always liked John Romero...

He was the one that played levels a thousand times until you got it right. Carmack was the tech, he didn't worry about gameplay. That's why no one liked Doom 3, it was trying to be advanced graphics over gameplay.

Edit:

Also, when people say Quake is better than Unreal, it's a choice. Ironically SO MANY games use Unreal Tech.

The whole Rockstar thing was a very bad idea, reminds me of how the Penny-arcade guys sold their whole operation and didn't realize it, and only got it back because the scammer was incompetent.

Like, Dr Dre said, or more likely Jay-Z ghostwrote, "Move Units, Then talk ♥♥♥♥".

I think Id would still be independent if they'd kept their head down and just kept delivering
mind-blistering entertainment.

They spent so much time convincing people they were a big deal that they ran out of money. At least Sierra got killed by criminals.
