THIS IS A THREAD ABOUT DOOM

[personal profile] dethtoll 2013-12-11 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
Greetings, F!S! Twenty years ago today a bunch of nerds with long hair and terrible clothes uploaded a game they made to the FTP server at University of Wisconsin-Madison and FOREVER CHANGED THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT.

It was violent, it was scary, it was controversial, it was influential, it was legendary. It pissed off an army of parents, religious people and politicians. It was banned in Germany for 15 years. It was blamed for everything from loss of productivity to school shootings. It chugged on 386 PCs, it chugged on Playstation, and now it can be played on calculators and cell phones and pianos. It revolutionized the nascent PC gaming industry, introduced deathmatch to the masses and would serve as the basis for many imitators for years.

It's Doom.

Sure, kids day might look at it and say "bad graphics, why can't I reload" and other catchphrases of the Press X to Hollywood generation, but beyond those clunky little sprites and MIDI music and pseudo-3D engine is a lot of history. PC gaming would not exist without this game, most likely -- at one point, an estimated 10 million people had at least the (free) shareware copy within two years of its release. And if I'm being perfectly honest, if it weren't for PC gaming, a sizeable majority of today's modern console gaming wouldn't exist either.

I don't think I'm being hyperbolic when I say modern gaming owes everything to Doom, and an equal amount to Doom's programmer John Carmack, who is without a doubt one of the smartest men in the world.

You wanna play Doom? You can buy Doom for cheapies or you can be like me and use very ancient copies of the IWADs that've traveled across 5 computers because I lost the discs ages ago, or you could just get it off kickass.to, I dunno. You don't need to use the old decrepit DOS exes, either -- just drop the necessary .wad files into a folder with this and you're good to go!

And if PSX Doom's simplified architecture and creepier atmosphere is more to your taste, boy have I got the present for you. And let's not forget Doom 64. (You could also try this, but it requires the Doom 64 wad to get its resources.)

Here, have some Doom music.

But the show is racist. And sexist. And anti-Semitic. And really awful in general.

Yeah, I agree with you, OP. The only moment where she really worked for me as a character was when she told the Doctor about defeating the alien by herself.

The worst part is that Ten even pointed out how OOC she was acting!

"Rainbow Factory" is a thing you can read? I thought it was a fan video (one which I really hate btw)

I love her design. (never played BL, just think it looks cool)

This! I love all the backstory work that's been done with the movie, more than the movie itself.

(Anonymous) 2013-12-11 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
I just love everything about this movie. <3

useless comment is useless. *drives away*

(Anonymous) 2013-12-11 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
It could be the case that they're awful to him because they're awful people, not because they're racists.

Especially Leonard. Fuck that guy.

(this is still compatible with the idea that the show is at times racist for the record)

Hey F!S

Happy Tuesday! How's everybody doing? For me, my day consisted of nothing but studying for finals : (

Cupcakes was rather tame, and pretty lame. People act like people haven't been writing dark versions of things since forever.

I liked this plotline, too. Sleepy Hollow has done a lot of surprising things that also fit into the legend, and I love it.

(Anonymous) 2013-12-11 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
I tried to read Cupcakes. I had no problem with the content (I was reading it because I enjoy that kind of stuff), but it was just really bad writing. I guess I shouldn't be surprised when a fic is only famous for its shock value and yet I still felt disappointed.

I almost always disagree when fandom thinks a character is being too emotional and this is no exception.

(Anonymous) 2013-12-11 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
Uggggh, Leonard. He was the reason I stopped watching. Boring, passive-aggressive asshole.
