>be sandy petersen>work on DOOM>make the worst levels>lie about the game's development>you say piracy crippled the game's sales>your boss literally had a medical condition where he can't forget things>he knows you're lying>he bitches you online all the time>everyone gigaquotes himonly option left is the rope
>>12902376Hi, anon, I hope you're doing well.
>>12902376Sandy is a old man. he made Ages, Doom, Quake and Cthulhu dude is a god
>>12902386I'm not. I'm replaying DOOM 2 and his levels are making me act like a retard
He invented the spawn in Quake and I just think it's crappy and annoying enemy.
>>12902407>crappy and annoyingis he just bad at making video games
>>12902395Isn't being unhappy playing doom 2 the normal intended experience?
>>12902376
>>12902392>CthulhuI thought H.P. Lovecraft made Cthulhu.Oh my god, it stands for Hsandy Petersen Lovecraft.
Victor Ireland of Working Designs, a widely hated figure, is also vehemently against piracy.
>>12902592He made one of the most influential tabletop RPG dudes is a legend.
>>12902376Shareware crippled the games sales if anything did. I never heard of anyone actually paying for the full version of a shareware game. Yes we pirated but in a lot of cases whatever was included in the shareware release was the game for all intents and purposes.
>>12902791>i never heard of anyone actually paying for the full versionYeah I guess that’s why DOOM was a flop and id software went out of business, because you and your pals specifically never bought shareware games
>>make the worst levelsHe also made some of the best tho.>>12902392>>12902592He helped popularize Lovecraft.>>12902705Yeah, he has a genuine record of good tabletop and videogame work. But now he's being a weird fluke and bullshitter for some reason, and it hurts to see.>>12902407>>12902425Never understood why people seethed about the Spawn, just shoot it.https://litter.catbox.moe/767ajnmbikudx7wn.mp4
>>12903000>MP4top kek
>>12902376he has the bald cringe autist gene. he cant help it
The levels are fine
>>12903143I think on average, his Doom and Doom 2 levels are decent, with a few that are really good (E2M6, Tricks & Traps), and only one that I actually don't like at all, The Factory.Unlike most, I like The Chasm.
>>12903000first man to manage to get a bald retard's chode down his throat
>>12903537>but now he's a weird fluke and bullshitter
>>12902376Piracy was so good that it killed the Dreamcast and many awful third party publishers who were publishing good game slop. Piracy also saved me thousands and thousands of dollars.
>>12903802>thousands and thousand of dollarsI was going to call you a liar until I started recounting the shit I've pirated lul
>>12903927pirating shit like Adobe alone saves you tens of thousands of dollars in the long run.
>>12903993Adobe leaned into and utilized piracy to dominate the markets in the 2000s. Maybe not the best end results considering how terrible they became over the years, but it can and has been used to great effect in the past. Having your product collapse your company to piracy is a skill issue.
>>12902376Doom 2's map design is competent but boring. The fact that it's all one big thing instead of being broken up into multiple episodes really hurts replayability.I remember Ultimate Doom pretty well, but Doom 2's map design gives me highway hypnosis.
>>12904136I wished they still kept the episodes for the sake of megawads not feeling like shit
>>12903927Piracy saves you money.
>>12904136>>12905151Doom 2 would definitely have benefitted from being split into episodes like the first game was, not just so you could have a cool animated intermission map between levels, but so you could have that forced reset of progression and repeated clean breaks. It'd just be better for overall progression and continuing escalation of challenge.I'm so glad that you can actually finally do that shit for Vanilla(ish), Boom, MBF21, etc .wads now with UMAPINFO.
>>12905525I just started doing pistol start now I couldn't care less if they had episodes or not
>>12902376>>everyone gigaquotes him>only option left is the ropei wished he did a SomethingAwful guy thing. but i don't care about fake celeb devs wannabes enough. i rather talk about how Jon Carmack would optimise all the shit console ports these days and indies if he still made games.>>12904019>Adobe piracy domination in the 2000show? all i recall about early adobe products, was using Adobe Reader 2.0 to read the PDF manual for the CD version of Ultima 7: Complete .
>>12905757>i don't care about fake celeb wannabes>namefaggingdo goyim really?
>>12902376He literally made the best levels in DOOM II, kys yourself OP.>MAP07: Dead Simple (with American McGee)>MAP08: Tricks and Traps>MAP09: The Pit>MAP10: Refueling Base (with Tom Hall)>MAP16: Suburbs>MAP23: Barrels o' Fun>MAP27: Monster CondoMaps 7 to 10 is the coolest sequence of maps to play through in either DOOM or DOOM II
>>12902376He got BTFO by Romero again recently. KWAB
>>12906009but he also made the worst maps in doom 2
>>12905645Fair, but most people play continuous (I like both ways), and that improves continuous play.
>>12902376I don't think he is lying, maybe he just has a fucked up memory. He seems to be senile or something.
>>12906009What's it like getting piped by your dad's coworkers every week
>>12906556I don't know, you'll have to ask your dad.
>>12906754We're brothers anon
