general

[thorny hinge]

Also, my launcher just fucking looks like ass on 11

[frank surge]

👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨

[thorny hinge]

Not a major issue, but it pisses me off anyways

[sturdy summit]

It looks fine wdym

[tardy arrow]

Make it bright fluro pink.

[thorny hinge]

the buttons are the wrong color

[tardy arrow]

If I can't see it from orbit it isn't bright enough.

Burn my retinas when I start it.

[sturdy summit]

Should've done that on April fools smh

[tardy arrow]

[thorny hinge]

I was too busy sleeping

[sturdy summit]

Fine. I'll do it.

[thorny hinge]

Also, I wouldn’t have committed that anyways

[frank surge]

are yall side sleepers or back sleepers

[static perch]

face down

[sturdy summit]

Forced to be a side sleeper cuz my phone will fall apart if I don't

[frank surge]

whats wrong wit it

[sturdy summit]

The screen is just. Coming off.

[frank surge]

oh that sucks

[thorny hinge]

Like the thing that pisses me off about 11 is that it genuinely has good features

But it just fucks me over in several other departments

[frank surge]

personally i sleep on my bed

[thorny hinge]

Like the tabs in file explorer and the fact they made notepad actually usable for once

[tardy arrow]

I use notepad all the time, it's great for editing configs.

[static perch]

i sleep on a concrete floor

[frank surge]

brokie

[tardy arrow]

Notepads actually better than another program I use for xml editing.

[static perch]

sold my bed for a cs2 knife

[thorny hinge]

Win10’s notepad is unbearable

[tardy arrow]

Nah, I use it constantly.

[thorny hinge]

Notepad++ is much better in that regard

[tardy arrow]

W10's notepad is actually perfect for editing config files

VisStudio fucking sucks for config editing.

And I wouldn't use ++ if I was on my deathbed I'm ngl.

Word and Notepad; notepad for configs, word for anything else.

[thorny hinge]

why would you use a fucking IDE for text editing?!

[tardy arrow]

XML files.

[thorny hinge]

That’s like using a table saw to cut eggs

[tardy arrow]

Most XML's you can use notepad and be fine, but DayZ you need visstudio.

[thorny hinge]

Honestly, that’s where Visual Studio Code would be better

[tardy arrow]

Notepad still shits on it though, it's so much better.

[thorny hinge]

You’d be using a ton of resources just to edit a file with Visual Studio

[thorny hinge]

Visual Studio is basically a requirement in my workflow at this point

[frank surge]

you guys 30 packs of cigarretes or nah

[thorny hinge]

And I hate using Win10 notepad

No dark mode is genuinely painful

And the lack of being able to quickly move across several files is also painful

[static perch]

maybe

[tardy arrow]

The lack of dark mode does suck, but I manage.

I still wouldn't trade notepad for anything, it's such an amazing utility.

[thorny hinge]

My monitor is fucking massive so I can literally light up my room with light mode

[frank surge]

i used windows 4

[tardy arrow]

W11 actually has the capability for dark mode lmao.

My monitors are also pretty bug, but my notepad windows are relatively small in comparison.

[thorny hinge]

Win11’s notepad is genuinely better

I can actually use that one, and willingly

[tardy arrow]

Either way I'm just upgrading to W11 when I do my new mobo / CPU.

Just no point staying on 10 anymore.

[frank surge]

fine...... i..... i guess i wont talk at all then :/

[tardy arrow]

Gonna take a bit of getting used to again, but it's just gonna be easier going forward.

[thorny hinge]

I’ll be on 10 until I can find a better solution for 11

[static perch]

noooo!! i like you

[tardy arrow]

If 10 wasn't end of life, I'd stay on it.

[static perch]

i mean, not in a weird way… i just like your messages

[thorny hinge]

I’d rather take a risk with my security than take a risk of my workflow being absolutely annihilated

[frank surge]

uggo🤢

[static perch]

😭

[thorny hinge]

I’ll be stuck on 10 if the latter was true anyways

[tardy arrow]

idk, I'd rather just upgrade; security risks are not worth it at all.

[frank surge]

yurrrrr >:)

[thorny hinge]

I have to have everything I use and play work 1:1 to 10

Or I will genuinely get fucked over

It is genuinely that critical

If VS has major bugs? Boom, I can’t work on any of my projects until it’s fixed.

A game not working? Well shit, I basically just lost money.

[tardy arrow]

VS not working on an OS is on VS.

That's just poor software implementation more than the OS itself.

[thorny hinge]

Like I doubt it’d be broken as it’s a first-party product

[floral ermine]

Would I be violating server rules by sharing my free Doom novel?

[thorny hinge]

But the latter is what I’m mainly worried about

[tardy arrow]

Most games are designed to run on W11.

Only the really old shit you might have to jump through some hoops, which you have to do on 10 regardless.

[tardy arrow]

No, you wouldn't.

[thorny hinge]

I know for a fact BeamNG can have issues on 11

[tardy arrow]

I haven't actually seen any, all the people I know on 11 that play haven't had any.

I think game issues are system dependant, not OS dependant.

[thorny hinge]

Thing is that they have very similar systems than I do

[tardy arrow]

Similiar hardware doesn't really mean anything.

[thorny hinge]

And it’s not even a 1-off from what I’ve seen

Several people were reporting issues last time I checked

[tardy arrow]

Because unless you have identical setups including every little file, every setting, truly identical, you'll never experience the same issue.

It's an extreme minority that experience issues, not the overwhelming majority.

[thorny hinge]

Plus I am genuinely just not willing to spend months trying to configure Windows 11

[floral ermine]

My novel is called 'Doom - Forbidden Secrets of the UAC'

You'll have to find it through a web search, you may need to put it in quotes to narrow it down.

[frank surge]

people are trying to SLEEP

wrong server srry

[tardy arrow]

Mute the channel then.

[frank surge]

i woke up and got frustrated :/

[thorny hinge]

Sounds insane, but I usually go more in-depth with what I can change

Especially when trying to change features that I absolutely despise

[tardy arrow]

I might give it a read later; you might be able to post it in Artwork, since I think writing is art, but unsure if the link would be allowed their, it might get vega'd.

[floral ermine]

I'm just glad im not auto banned for that link

[tardy arrow]

Nah, links don't autoban here, they just get vega'd.

[floral ermine]

14 -15 years of writing, i think it's the best script the series has

[thorny hinge]

Like Windows 11’s horrible right-click menu that has given me more issues than anything

[tardy arrow]

Unironically, I think it's better than every other right click menu to date lmao.

[thorny hinge]

They replaced what was perfect since Windows 95, with a shitty menu that can barely be used

[tardy arrow]

I refuse to accept 98's right click menu was perfect because it sucked monumental ass.

[thorny hinge]

Like how the actual fuck am I supposed to quickly look at it and know “oh, the 3rd button on the top renames the file”

If that even does that

[frank surge]

the menus great if you're not a babe lol

[thorny hinge]

I just replace that with the original menu through the registry

[tardy arrow]

I do have issues with where some things are specifically, but overall I think it's the best implementation.

[thorny hinge]

To me it’s the worst

[tardy arrow]

10's is very good too though, extremely straight forward.

Anything pre-10 is garbage though.

[thorny hinge]

Stuff like that should just be text

No more, no less

I hate visuals

[frank surge]

windows 4 was the PEAK.. NO debating it....

[tardy arrow]

NT 4.0? ew.

[thorny hinge]

I like reading and knowing “Hey, this creates a new folder.”

[static perch]

nah, windows 2

[thorny hinge]

Instead of having to hover over an icon and then waiting a few seconds for the description to pop up

[frank surge]

erm rude

[tardy arrow]

NT 4.0 was shit, don't even.

[frank surge]

but it works great!@ im using it RIGHT NOW to PLAY COUNTER.... STRIKE

[tardy arrow]

It doesn't run CS.

[frank surge]

IMADE IT

[thorny hinge]

I should stop complaining my mouth off and actually go to bed, though

[tardy arrow]

You didn't make it run CS, because it isn't possible.

[thorny hinge]

I need to fix my schedule before my state testing in 3 days

[static perch]

im on rn we should cue together

[tardy arrow]

You also can't run NT on modern hardware lmfao.

[tardy arrow]

Treat yourself to some cheeky sleep.

[frank surge]

not with that attitude leol

[tardy arrow]

Dream of every windows NT copy being burned.

[frank surge]

im on that homebrew d

[tardy arrow]

There's a reason the moment XP released, NT was eviscerated.

[wide hill]

Why is there no matchmaking in battle Mode?

[tardy arrow]

But then 10 came out eventually and every windows prior became obsolete garbage nobody will ever use outside of niche cases.

[static perch]

its true im on windows 2 and im playing fortnite

[tardy arrow]

2.0 was 1981.

[frank surge]

aint that just what the doctor ordered :/

[tardy arrow]

You wouldn't be able shit on 2.0.

[static perch]

i make it work

[tardy arrow]

The architecture alone prevents that.

Shitposting is only funny when it's realistic btw.

[wide hill]

How can I get mods for doom eternal?

Or where do I put em???

[tardy arrow]

There is a channel specifically for modding the doom games somewhere.

#eternal-modding

[static perch]

thats just not true like all memes are absurdist and random or unrealistic

[tardy arrow]

I do not care.

[static perch]

darn

alright fine…. im using windows 98

[frank surge]

[tardy arrow]

98? gross, still not running anything post 2005.

Actually the Os could barely run anything by the time XP released.

[frank surge]

windows vista

[static perch]

yeah i agree, real gamers use windows vista

[tardy arrow]

Vista died faster than it ever existed.

[viral torrent]

anyone else think a Middle Earth setup would work for Doom?
go in, conquer the fuck out of one area, move on until you've reclaimed the planet?

[real forum]

Maybe for a spinoff game, but TAG already kinda ruined the premise since all the demons outside of hell went poof. Maybe you could play as a resistance soldier or something, but not Doomslayer

[viral torrent]

fuck it, let's conquer hell then

[real forum]

Or there could be a parallel story to when Doomslayer is fighting through TAG, you play as a human soldier as part of a squad reclaiming parts of earth

Actually that works pretty well for a true multiplayer doom, have you and up to 3 friends play together as soldiers helping wipe out the remaining demons on earth

[viral torrent]

that'd be pretty dope

[real forum]

Yo Bethesda/Id hire me, my ideas are good trust me

[viral torrent]

I'll be honest with I know fuck all doom lore except demons bad and John Romero is the icon of sin

[cunning depot]

they said tda eont be the last doom game, not the dlc either

[real forum]

I really hope they figure out a way to make a sequel to eternal

[cunning depot]

same

its id, theyll figure it out

[viral torrent]

demons figured out a new way out of hell. gone crazy.

boom, doom Eternal sequel

[real forum]

Bringing up my sequel idea again, Doomslayer ends up dreaming while in his coma and you have to fight your way through his "mental demons". He has to face his PTSD and all the anger he's held on to head on

[viral torrent]

isn't that a scene in Wolfenstein?

[real forum]

And since it's a dream the developers can go crazy with the level and enemy designs

[real forum]

Haven't played any Wolfenstein game yet so idk

[viral torrent]

I distinctly remember a scene where BJ is in a mental hospital for sure

concept: time traveling/universe traveling Doomslayer.

BJ and Slayer Team up. DEMON NAZI KILLING TIME

twice the big guys twice the killing

cos I'm pretty sure BJ is related to Slayer

[real forum]

Doomslayer has to fight a demonic version of Daisy, but it's a metaphor for finally letting go and moving on from her death

[viral torrent]

that's not a demon Hitler though is it

[real forum]

Killing demon Hitler would be sick to ngl

[viral torrent]

I want demon Hitler but then when you get to him he just takes the coward way out

[cunning depot]

he has her foot as a necklace, for a reminder of innocence lost

[real forum]

I know the timelines wouldn't add up but I can see the demons in hell taking Daisy's soul/being and warping her into some demonic entity to taunt/torture the Slayer with (or go a step further and add his wife and kid into it too)

[viral torrent]

nah we just go to Animal Crossing and team up with Isabelle

[real forum]

Real

or they call him into SUBNAUTICA

nothing there is demonic

while we're there we can just do a Mars on Sector Zero, prevent that game from happening

[thorn egret]

it's perfectly ironic. it's the last day of the school year. i should feel blissful. i should feel relieved. instead i felt pure despair as i lost the outputs i desperately needed to submit in order to avoid failing math

IK MAN LEAVE ME ALONE

[astral mortar]

You’re the only person to congratulate us, imma let you put a name in the name pile for us to choose from. Pick 2 male names and 2 female names

Gabrielle (Gabbie for short), Mia

yet Activision does dumbshit with their cod games

they dont even do the same charm with WAW-BO3 or the Modern Warfare games anymore

what channel would it be okay to post about mighty doom in

i noticed that the eggadon hunters theme is a cover of another doom song but i forgot what the name of that song is and it is driving me crazy </3

[misty eagle]

General since there's no m doom channel

[limpid lava]

ok fair

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dv_SkPO0vz4&t=3843s

soo i noticed this song at the timestamp ("Eggadon Hunters") sounds rlly similar to another doom song from another game but i have literally ZERO IDEA what the name of it is

and i know this isn't just delusion because all the other event themes are covers of other doom songs so i doubt the pattern breaks here

[cunning depot]

does doomguy have a name?

[sturdy summit]

I believe in the Flynn Taggart name personally

[subtle rover]

yeah

[real forum]

Flynn "Fly" Taggart supremacy (I still need to read the books)

I know the chances of it being Canonized is slim but I think it would be funny if Doomslayer was being his stubborn ass self in The Dark Ages, and someone just gets fed up with it and calls him out by his full name
"Flynn Taggart can you stop being so bull-headed for once!?"
"No"

[sturdy summit]

gets called full name

:(

He looks like he would get scared at his full name

[subtle rover]

since he is controlled by the maykrs a chunk of the time, I feel like he probably would forget how to even speak during that

[thorn egret]

Taggart is such a strange and unique surname

[real forum]

Apparently it's Irish/Scottish in origin and means "son of the priest"

[thorn egret]

Doomguy's dad was a priest headcanon impact imminent

[sturdy summit]

In the books he absolutely hated his dad lmao

It was the reason he joined the marines

[thorn egret]

think about the numerous characters in media who had dads that were priests

and said dads were abusive

[sturdy summit]

Daddy issues doomguy is so real

[thorn egret]

so far i can only think of Ji-yeong from Squid Game

[sturdy summit]

Priests tend to be abusive. If the constant scandals with the church says anything, at least.

[thorn egret]

there's a notorious pastor here in my country who was a major human trafficker and pedo

still, not all pastors and priests are like that and such a reputation has tarnished it

[thorn egret]

ps. said pedopastor runs for senator currently

Why is it always the super religious ones that end up being like that, makes the whole thing look bad after awhile

i ain't too familiar with the halo series tho, but Doom and Metroid are two of my most favorite game franchises

[muted trail]

I respect that

Metroid is an underrated Nintendo game in my opinion although I prefer F-Zero

[thorn egret]

Metroid was the inventor of brave, non-damsel in distress female protagonists

[muted trail]

Nice

But the reason I prefer f-zero is because it has better gameplay for me

[thorn egret]

is that the game with Captain Falcon

[muted trail]

Now I’m not saying I hate Metroid it is in the top 5

[muted trail]

Yes but it has a lot of femme fatale racers too

Was watching this old Jetix cartoon (Atomic Betty) lately. I'd lowkey love an Atomic Betty-centered DOOM wad

[astral mortar]

lol

[muted trail]

I have a video on her

[sturdy summit]

She's duke's sister now.

[muted trail]

And why I like her a lot

[astral mortar]

She'd fit right in with a DOOM game. She travels all over the galaxy taking out aliens with her fists

[sturdy summit]

Oh my God that's just Commander keen

Except he had a laser gun iirc

[astral mortar]

She has too

Atomic betty has an insane amount of gadgets

Even a circular saw, a grappling hook, etc.

[muted trail]

I don’t like people who want to be president for superiority or anything stupid

[astral mortar]

But she relies on her fists and feet for a lot of things. Betty could be the doomslayer

[muted trail]

Possible but

Doom slayer is not a show off

[astral mortar]

True

[muted trail]

As long as she isn’t she is qualified

[astral mortar]

Betty does shit because she's an inter-galactic guardian. Basically, she's a cop.

Justice

[muted trail]

Still not an excuse

If she was doing it for freedom it would be perfect

Like real heroes want nothing in return

[astral mortar]

Ok maybe not doomslayer at all lol, but definitely fitting to have a doom wad

[muted trail]

Yes

[astral mortar]

I was considering an atomic-betty style doom fan-game since I already have experience with making doom-style games

[muted trail]

Besides how you control your power is important

If you can’t control your power, you are a threat to society

Doesn’t matter

Power is a Privilege

If Atomic Betty was let’s say, a freedom fighter who would while there is no threat try to live a peaceful life

I would upvote her as the slayer

[astral mortar]

yeah I would not upvote her lol. She's really just about intergalactic law enforcement, really

I know not everyone likes cops

[muted trail]

Exactly what my point is, if you think that you can break the rules because you are powerful, FUCK YOU (not you guys btw)

Like I am or was a pro at many games like TF2 or dungeon games and I could use that to flex but I instead use it to carry new players and help them learn the game

[astral mortar]

Also, betty needs two companions to help her out. Doomguy is a wolf

[astral mortar]

That's noble. Keeping the ladder down.

It reminds me of one of the most beautiful speeches by Arnold Schwarzenegger. How he wasn't a self-made man, how he had a lot of help from others to climb the ladder, and how it is a strong person's duty to help others

[muted trail]

Yes

You are not above the rule no matter what

Keep your problems out of the universe if you have any with it

[astral mortar]

I actually have not played Duke Nukem or Commander Keen

[sturdy summit]

They're pretty fun games

[muted trail]

They are indeed

[sturdy summit]

Watch out in duke nukem tho, tits exist

[muted trail]

Also I am not playing dead rising remastered as it is overpriced junk

Good on Capcom for keeping the original up

[neon prism]

I would love it if we got a full Doom + Doom 2 re-make with raytracing, I loved the mod for Doom 2

[astral mortar]

Hmm.

If it ain't broke don't fix?

[muted trail]

If it is made using actual work

[astral mortar]

I mean, DOOM 1 and 2 are flawed. But I think they should stay untouched and kept as is

[muted trail]

Yes

The fact that we try to fix every problem is the only real problem

[neon prism]

I just loved the way the mod looked in Doom 2, it's not really fixing it as it is giving you another way to play the game

[muted trail]

Doom 1 and 2 are a light in a bottle

[astral mortar]

fair enough

[muted trail]

That is fine

[astral mortar]

And DOOM games have been updated. Kex engine doom for example is kinda a far cry from the dos ports

Updates/remasters ✔️

[muted trail]

Ok but

You see, instead of trying to fix every problem we should fix how we react

Ik doom 1 is a bit broken but fixing it will only make it worse

We can accept that it is and play doom 1

[astral mortar]

yep

[muted trail]

There is a reason why doom 1 is much more scary than doom 3 and later

[astral mortar]

DOOM 3 scared me more but yah I don't get scared easily

I also dont play DOOM for scares generally, but for fun

[muted trail]

I’m not scared of it either but looking at the graphics doom 1 is much scarier

That is not to say all older games are scary

[sullen yarrow]

Judging both by how the games were on release and how they are right now, I'd say the average person would point DOOM 3 as the scarier

[muted trail]

Fair

Maybe 2016 and later

[muted trail]

Resident Evil 7 is the scariest resident evil game as of typing

But there are too many less scary games compared to the fixed camera games like revelations, 4-6, etc

While fixed camera is annoying I think it is perfect for the games of that time and I would not want an RE2 original with 3rd person

That is just an example

But yes, fixing every problem will lead to more

Fair, I still think that it is very scary and updating the game or remastering it would remove the good in that

No, only DoS

Yeah but I think that if we updated it any further it would tarnish it.

Like the best way to make it better is to leave it

Yes

Also dark ages is the end of the current doom era

Like we will get more but it is going to make the devs take a break so they can gather ideas and not spoil it

Yes, that’s why I don’t play dead rising deluxe

That game is trash

As long as they space it out and not spoil it it should be okay

I prefer the current doom 1 art style

But yes, the golden era, DOOM 3 era and the revival era

The revival era is almost over but there will be more doom soon

Remember though, the series devs will be talking a break

[neon prism]

I wouldn't be shocked if they boot quake back up

[thorn egret]

remember that rough sketch i first did?

[sturdy summit]

Fuck yea !!!!

[thorn egret]

i'll just merge the layers

then more rendering...

[sullen yarrow]

It's speculation

[thorn egret]

just realized that the ssg takes up the bottom half of the canvas

[sturdy summit]

To be fair, the SSG is genuinely fucking huge

[thorn egret]

absolutely

add the meathook and it's now looong

decided to put samus in a tomboyish pose because why not

[sturdy summit]

I really like it dawg 😭

[thorn egret]

thanks so much 🥲💙💙

[leaden silo]

hii

[lament comet]

hi

[sweet grove]

https://tenor.com/view/doom-gif-25908805

[kind cypress]

What if the next game after dark ages is a commander keen reboot

there's a non-zero chance that could straight up happen

[sullen yarrow]

Bethesda just canned one not too long ago, not likely

[thorn egret]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adSlxtgNaSk

Too Many Super Shotguns

[sturdy summit]

The shotshotshotshotgun

[thorn egret]

it's called the overthetopgun in the mod

[thorny hinge]

I fucking hate that gun btw

[thorn egret]

favorite ones: the smolgun where he struggles to fit in the shells, and a literal hammer where he literally strikes the shells' primers with a hammer to fire them

[thorny hinge]

It pains me every time I see it

[sturdy summit]

That last one would be lowkey dangerous lmao

[thorn egret]

def it just explodes in your hand

[fast lion]

You'd shoot this at the stone imp and the guy would shrug it off on some "is that all you got"

[thorn egret]

buuut doomguy is doomguy

[sturdy summit]

He has been shot by buckshot before imo

[thorn egret]

there's a chainshotgun in the vid

[sturdy summit]

Those scars are hard to draw tbf

[floral marlin]

hi fella

[fast lion]

The Recoil of that gun would be enough to send the Slayer to Urdak and back

[thorn egret]

collapse Immora yet fail to kill a single stone imp

[lament comet]

omg it's that one btd6 player

[sturdy summit]

Ik it's like. Tiny pellets, but we'd have to know how far away the pellets hit, or if they're just far away enough where they don't just. Explode the flesh

[fast lion]

I find it funny they tried to explain why the Stone imps are only vulnerable to the auto shotgun but it ends up making no sense

The 5 auto shotgun mod fans cheering

[thorn egret]

"from a lore standpoint..."

[lament comet]

i really like full auto, but the stone imps are still a bad edition lol

[vernal cape]

From a lore perspective the auto shotgun sucks and Doomguy refuses to use it.

[thorn egret]

Thy Flesh Exploded

[lament comet]

it already has utility by being a great finisher with good dps

[fast lion]

The bad part about getting better and better at Eternal is realizing how many fumbles are in Tag2

[fast lion]

You will never get me to hate the final boss though im one of its 12 fans

[sturdy summit]

new doom 1 episode

[astral mortar]

I like Davoth... kinda. Well I just don't hate it. I prefer it over Icon of Sin

[thorn egret]

Barrels o' Fun: The Movie...

[sturdy summit]

Me too i fucking love davoth's fight. I love repetition

[astral mortar]

Barrels o' not-so-fun

Best part of Davoth is the end cutscene still, absolutely fire

[vernal cape]

You MUST use the microwave beam.
You MUST use the auto shotgun.

[astral mortar]

no

[fast lion]

https://tenor.com/view/blackbeard-blackbeard-writing-taking-notes-writing-gif-17583038544116987898

[lament comet]

lmfao yeah, there's an entire list i could make on why tag2 is easily the worst campaign

[astral mortar]

of doom eternal or all of doom?

[lament comet]

haven't played all doom games

[thorn egret]

jedi mindtrick

[fast lion]

It's like watching the ugly truth slowly reveal itself in my eyes, I wish to be blinded once more 😔

Okay I'll forgive the possessed thing bc it works better but the stone imps are just yuck

[astral mortar]

Of nudoom, tag 2 might be my least favorite yh. It is good, just some awful enemies bringing it down by a bit

[vernal cape]

I still can’t get over the armored barons looking like mutated power rangers

[lament comet]

spirits are a good addition, so are blood maykrs
all the tag2 enemies on the other hand...

[astral mortar]

nah that's no prob for me.

My biggest issue is the Riot Soldiers. They feel... out-of-place?

And they are extremely annoying

[thorn egret]

stone imps are kinda lazy cuz they're essentially just pinkies but have ranged attacks and die easily to auto buckshot

[fast lion]

I will say as a Sonic fan im used to asset re use and tag 2 did a fantastic job with asset re use from Urdak to make Immora

[astral mortar]

Stimps are just weird gimmicks but don't bother me in the slightest. Riot soldiers just stink, no wonder they need to use shields to hide their smell

[lament comet]

the general concept of them is good, but it was implemented poorly

[astral mortar]

Oh lord

Not the fucking chaingunners, not the chaingunners...

[fast lion]

I understand the constraints they had but I do believe they did the best they could have done, Immora looks awesome

[fast lion]

This

[vernal cape]

Yeah it works well given the context of the setting as well

[fast lion]

True

[lament comet]

arena design is still meh in there though

[fast lion]

Im talking visually doe not gameplay wise

Gameplay wise ur right

[thorn egret]

i wanted to be able to participate in the Hell battle of Immora once i get the game

[fast lion]

That one double marauder part is cool though I like that. It's kind of underwhelming bc in tag 1 the first level already had that though

[thorn egret]

but for now it seems like we're just stuck watching a looping animation of atlans and titans fighting

[lament comet]

yeah the encounters in immora were really underwhelming

[thorn egret]

hear me out.... 五

[lament comet]

upon seeing the cutscene, i was like "fuck yeah, this is gonna me like a mini master level"
... but nope

[fast lion]

Especially the very last one????? What in the fart

[lament comet]

oh my gosh yeah

[fast lion]

It's saved by the final boss but that's a hot take bc again im one of 6 Davoth fight fans

[lament comet]

and the immora soldiers were just sad

[fast lion]

That's funny

They were beyond pathetic

[lament comet]

6 seems a bit high...

[fast lion]

I know maybe im waaaayyy too optimistic

[lament comet]

i'd say 1 of 3

[fast lion]

Yes...

[lament comet]

you, thomas and 1 more weirdo

tammie...

[fast lion]

I am a weirdo that's a very big true

[thorn egret]

why were they even implemented if they were weaker than zombies

[lament comet]

genuinely yeah

[thorn egret]

plus they deal 1 damage per inaccurate shot

i thought lore wise they were supposed to be... the best demons of the best to guard Hell's capital, no a flying imp with blades can do better than those red armored excuses of soldiers

[astral mortar]

Immora soldiers, I don't hate at all. I just think they're sad.

But like, sad in a laughable pathetic sense lmao

[lament comet]

yep

[astral mortar]

It's not worth to hate imo if it's the worst offender that it's just weak and pathetic. It's more infuriating if something is genuinely obnoxious, like TAG 2's riot soliders

COuld be skill tissue but it sometimes feels inconsistent on landing a shot from behind with riot soldiers

[thorn egret]

there's a reason why immora soldiers were classified as Ambient Demons

[lament comet]

crazy when the "best" addition is something that's completely irrelevant😭

[astral mortar]

I honestly didn't need any new enemies

There was already variety aplenty for me

[lament comet]

tru tru

could've been nice with maybe 2-4 new enemies imo

[astral mortar]

I already didn't like spirit much, tho it try to expeirment and bring something new to the table

again we already had two buffer enemies but spirits put a spin to it

[lament comet]

tag1 didn't need to introduce the turret, and tag2 should've cut down on the new enemies drastically and actually made good additions instead

[thorn egret]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDdZBSP-yNM

[lament comet]

i think spirits do a fantastic job of accentuating different aspects of the combat, while introducing unique behavior among demons that makes you approach them differently

[floral marlin]

the spike factory paragon is SO based

[fast lion]

I like spirits until I have to fight the possesed Tyrant in The Holt

I need a solid strat for that guy lol

[lament comet]

how come
whats it do

[fast lion]

I like how Archvilles can be possesed but not even in Horde mode which throws at you a possesed Marauder do you encounter a possesed Archville

[lament comet]

possessed archviles are an... interesting experience

[floral marlin]

spike factory but better

[fast lion]

Even they knew it was some forbidden shit so they kept it in the game but not encounterable

[floral marlin]

and big explosions

[hollow dove]

Training back and shoulders to look like Davoth (in like 10 years )

[lament comet]

that's exactly what the spike factory was lacking

[cunning depot]

gonna need steroids probably

[cunning depot]

what about quadruple stacked archviles

[lament comet]

shootey shoot and microwave beam stuns if required

[fast lion]

Everyone gangsta till the possessed, totem buffed, screecher buffed and empowered ||zombie|| strikes

[lament comet]

🤭
https://youtu.be/_CdxxYFpz4E?si=TzIU3-R0VeHhTaYl

[cunning depot]

oh

[fast lion]

Hey M1 the YouTuber stole your name

[hollow dove]

I will stay natural, I was about to say with roids for the joke but I really don't want to be enhanced, for my health.

[cunning depot]

tre

your heart can and will become larger, and you cant really make your heart rest, otherwise you die

[floral marlin]

not really XD, the super mines are broken op and the paragon only makes the boom better

[cunning depot]

so its screecher buff, spirit buff, and the buff totem buff, right?

[lament comet]

so this is just an encounter with 4 archviles that have multiple buffs applied to them, one of them being the spirit buff
1 caco, cursed prowler, blood maykr and 2 marauders who are also buffstacked will infinitely respawn until all 4 archviles are dead

[hollow dove]

I know the sides effects and dangers thanks to the good side of the force of fitness influencers

[cunning depot]

i mean yeah i was joking about doing steroids

[lament comet]

takes a bit over 4 minutes of almost continuous punch cancels to kill the archviles lmao

[lament comet]

xd
there is actually another youtuber who has the name M1 and uploaded a few videos on doom

but he came before me </3

[lament comet]

oh i had no idea the spike factory could already make explosions😭

[vapid lark]

anyone wanna play coop on doom 2

[carmine ocean]

Kids always remember acab

[brisk ice]

Team Fortress Classic turns 26 today

[sullen yarrow]

Happy birthday, barely played remake of beloved mod

[sturdy summit]

Hells yeah

[timid ledge]

All of the Bioshock collection with the Dlc is 9$ on steam... just saying

[neon prism]

I for whatever reason can not get into the first two gams

I absolutely loved infinite though

[timid ledge]

personally i watched some people talk about objectivism, the big inspiration for the first game. It changed the view that i had on the first 2 games.

They also created some gamechanging concept for video games

audio logs didn't exist before bioshock 1

[vernal cape]

Ik System Shock 2 had audio logs

[timid ledge]

You are right, i got confused since LookingGlass Technologies made the game system shock, with Ken Levine as the writer and lead designer.

Ken levine than created Irrational Games and made Bioshock.

[timid ledge]

thanks for the fact check 🫡

[faint ivy]

Glory to the Many.

I am a voice in their choir.

BOOM-Chk-Chk BOOM-Chk-Chk BOOM-Chk-Chk

[timid ledge]

Creepy 💀

[muted trail]

Hows it goin everyone

[muted trail]

Lol

[muted trail]

Thats beautiful

Well they will make more doom but they won’t make it too soon to not overwork the employees

[misty ridge]

Good

[thorny hinge]

I’ve finally made a half-decent looking photogram (I actually set the focus on the enlarger correctly)

So kinda happy about that

[misty eagle]

Coconutdemon

[muted trail]

We need a #Coconutdemon

Four has four letters

[marsh lion]

what's that got to do with anything?

[muted trail]

Youre such a bot

[marsh lion]

who me?

[muted trail]

Cant take an outta place joke

[marsh lion]

no bro I was just pointing it out

it was just really random. thats it.

[muted trail]

Well i am very random and satirical

If you cant take a joke please leave

Thank you very much

[old solar]

what is even happening rn

[marsh lion]

this guy got offended

[old solar]

jfc, why cant we just be mature and move along

[marsh lion]

I was trying not to start a whole thing because I can't be bothered to get into an argument over nothing.

[old solar]

but you took it personally

when you could've just not paid attention to it

[sullen yarrow]

Starry was in the wrong here

[hollow dove]

You provocated him, don't act like you did nothing

[floral marlin]

woah woah calm your skibidis yall

[old solar]

lev, one of my goats

[sullen yarrow]

Literally all the guy did was ask what the relevance is, be for real

[floral marlin]

<3

[marsh lion]

Exactly

[jolly arrow]

Dark Ages is gonna be peak

[hollow dove]

I agree but some people might be upset over it, I am not but the other guy seemed to be upset. Anyways, it's late and I'm saying dumb shit and trying to be batman on a Discord server, as usual I guess.

[sullen yarrow]

I don't know why Starry was upset but Choelzeman did literally nothing wrong in this situation

[marsh lion]

To be honest, this is not a big deal and I really don't care too much about this.

[sullen yarrow]

If you can even call it a situation

[hollow dove]

Some people are covered in nerves, ready to explode, not Choelz's fault

[old solar]

mmm, true

[misty ridge]

fr

[marsh lion]

@misty ridge just observing from the shadows lol

[old solar]

like an imp fr

[misty ridge]

I'm observing or u?

[marsh lion]

[hollow dove]

He's just a chill guy who summons buffed dudes sometimes

[misty ridge]

and I'm buffed myself

[old solar]

sneaky little bastards always flinging shit from the backlines 💀

[marsh lion]

Trying to find the last imps and just hearing the pig noises

[old solar]

*PIG SQUEALING SFX

[marsh lion]

They look like big teddy bears in the original and nightmare abominations in the modern games.

[hollow dove]

During one of my runs, I had to reset my checkpoints a few times in Final Sin because some imps/soldiers didn't break the walls and were stuck so the demonic barrier was closed 🥲

[marsh lion]

What is the most annoying classic DOOM level?

[misty ridge]

The Good

[hollow dove]

I would say The Pit in DOOM 2

[marsh lion]

I don't actually mind that one. everyone says it's the worst

I would say either Unholy Cathedral (DOOM) or Administration Centre (EVILUTION)

[hollow dove]

I mostly played to DOOM 2 so I can't say for DOOM. The Pit is just awful in every way, waves of tanky demons, parcour, key collecting and a very opened map that makes you an easy target to gun down. I hate it

[marsh lion]

not as bad as Downtown

[misty ridge]

yeah the pit was pretty annoying

[hollow dove]

Downtown is the second on the list, I agree on that

[misty ridge]

wich one was that again?

[marsh lion]

huge city

[misty ridge]

where there like alot of enemys and like arachanatrons and others

[marsh lion]

yeah

[misty ridge]

I think I remeber that then

yeah from what I remeber it was pretty bad

[marsh lion]

But you haven't seen massive hoards of enemies until you play Plutonia

[misty ridge]

it has been kinda long since I plyed doom 2

[hollow dove]

I need to play to DOOM 2 again because damn, it was fun. Maybe more than Eternal now that I think about it

[marsh lion]

bro I play the classic games basically every day

[misty ridge]

it was pretty fun from what I rember

[misty ridge]

I las replayed doom like 3 weeks ago

[thorny hinge]

my PTSD from Scythe 2 will forever outmatch Plutonia

[marsh lion]

I have been grinding all the DOOM + DOOM II achievements since christmas 2024

[misty ridge]

anyway Imma go sleep now

[hollow dove]

The most terrifying horror game I've played to

[misty ridge]

og doom?

[hollow dove]

Same for me, good night chat

[marsh lion]

Good night sleep tight DONT LET THE BED BUGS BITE

[hollow dove]

DOOM 3 mb, I misread your message

[marsh lion]

it's late here too

[sullen yarrow]

Time traveler?

[old solar]

Doom 1993; E4M2 Perfect Hatred
i hated it with a passion because of the amount of bullshit it had

[blazing briar]

doom eternal pro 10 years experience

[thorny hinge]

E4M6 is much worse

[old solar]

TELL ME ABOUT IT

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1224690545499308126/1358215218320117971/Screenshot_20250404-1342592.png?ex=67f307fe&is=67f1b67e&hm=db8b4b45163538c49f9240f5b297ca06582b152bb57aeb270794ef248c11112e&=

[sullen yarrow]

E4M6 killed my BFG Nightmare run

[sullen yarrow]

I miss that guy sometimes, was a very peculiar individual

[muted trail]

I remember the stage where you had a lot of jerry cans and if you shot one you were screwed

[old solar]

E4M2 is on Nightmare is like

a death sentence with the lost souls coming at you

made me almost wanna eat my own controller

[spice quartz]

the Minecraft movie was peak

i don't regret watching it

[marsh lion]

mixed up the year

I'm totally a time traveller just look at my pfp

[scenic night]

Yo

[marsh lion]

yo

$

[pine delta]

Are you actually robot part 1

[marsh lion]

I can't believe you got the episode right too

tom baker is the best

[pine delta]

He was like my favorite one

[marsh lion]

hell yeah

somehow, he is still alive

[pine delta]

I doubt he's making it past this year

[marsh lion]

He's only 91 so I think he can last a few more years

[pine delta]

I thought he was 94

[marsh lion]

long enough to appear in another doctor who episode

[pine delta]

Nah he just retired from doing doctor who period

[marsh lion]

damn

[pine delta]

He did a lot of the audio dramas for a while but he stopped last month

[marsh lion]

jelly baby?

[pine delta]

Always

[marsh lion]

best sci-fi show ever

[pine delta]

It's the only one I've really watched so I can't fact check that

[marsh lion]

I still prefer the 2005-2009 doctor who

[pine delta]

Yeah that was when it was at it's best

It had an actual budget and fantastic writing

Now it has a huge budget and terrible writing

[marsh lion]

the new season is coming this saturday

[marsh lion]

I thought that Ncuti Gatwa was alright

[pine delta]

The actors are always amazing but Russel T Davies just can't write doctor who episodes anymore

[marsh lion]

selling the rights to Disney was a massive fuck up on the BBC's end

[pine delta]

They didn't sell to disney

Disney just has the streaming rights now

The writing would've been just as bad if they didn't

[frank surge]

what does this have to do with doom

[thorny hinge]

this is general chat

[marsh lion]

nothing really

we're talking about Doctor Who

[frank surge]

oh

[marsh lion]

goated tv show

anyway, it's late here and I'm bored. se ya

[vapid lark]

No running from evil

or any classic doom music

it's the big sad

also, i'm not talking about remix, i'm talking about the original midi

well, goodnight chat

[sturdy summit]

The original songs aren't on Spotify lmao

[surreal sundial]

Okay so do you guys think doom guy could ever be in smash bros

I know Bethesda said they'd be down for an animal crossing Crossover

I just think the doom slayer in smash would be so damn awesome

[somber forge]

smash better be triple the size and have that if I'm going to pay $90 for it

[surreal sundial]

Yeah the prices are starting to get a bit insane

[thorn egret]

woke up to a bad stomachache

didn't eat much yesterday—skipped breakfast and lunch, and only ate a portion of dinner

[thorn egret]

aww thanks!

[muted trail]

Never give up (unless you use ai)

[thorn egret]

i never use ai

[muted trail]

Stellar

i'm highly against ai art

[muted trail]

Stellar Sigma

[old solar]

i know im gonna get warned or muted for saying this

but AI is for pussies

[muted trail]

I understand your point

Its why i dont use a lot of socials

[thorn egret]

there are some very rare moments where AI is welcome, such as Neuro-sama

but all other uses of it is trash

[old solar]

all of my art is sketches n shit straight out of my drawing book

[muted trail]

Wth

What is neurosama

[old solar]

tf is neurosama

[muted trail]

It better not be what i think

[thorny hinge]

My art in recent years: Cutting paper and making photograms

[thorn egret]

don't know Neuro? she's an AI vtuber constantly getting developed by a programmer

a passion project

[muted trail]

Yeah well i dont like most vtubers

[thorn egret]

i can respect that

[old solar]

respect

[muted trail]

Yeah unless its independent or something

[thorny hinge]

I made my (more than likely final) photogram just today

[muted trail]

Like sion risa

[thorny hinge]

waiting for it to dry, though

last time I saw it, it was in the wash

[muted trail]

Id rather have a glass half empty than one full of shit

[thorn egret]

Neuro is very independent with her ability to stream even without her creator, and even has the ability to talk shit about him

[muted trail]

Still, i prefer real people

who actually show their face or record without showing it

[thorn egret]

yeah, that's fair

[muted trail]

Im a part of the art community

[thorn egret]

i'd like to consider myself part of it

[muted trail]

Yeah i know its tempting but you should probably try to stop consuming the product if you dont like it

Trust me i used to watch a lot of vtubers and when i learned that most of them are controlled by a big company I stopped and yes it was hard but it helped me learn to break addiction

[thorn egret]

i don't watch hololive too much

[muted trail]

Although I still follow them most of the ones i follow are unpopular ones

[thorn egret]

i still like the turtle one (Vedal987)

brit programmer turtle

[muted trail]

Well yeah but you kinda need to learn if a vtuber is making quality content or just doing it for views

It’s unfortunately like that of logan Paul

I don’t like him either but unfortunately that is how i see it

[old solar]

why do it for views when you can play video games and make videos on them for fun

[muted trail]

Exactly

If you do it for views, dont do it

That is why i like PewDiePie

[thorn egret]

Vedal originally developed Neuro as an OSU bot, then gave her a voice, gave her the ability to play Minecraft, her "mom" Anny made her a vtuber model and see current day

[muted trail]

Better to play yourself than follow a vtuber

[thorn egret]

yeah i get that... i'm just sharing

cuz it's rare for me to share guilty pleasures such as this

[muted trail]

It’s okay, i will help you break out

[old solar]

i wouldn't call it guilty pleasures tbf but whatever.

[thorn egret]

i sometimes like watching vtubers what's wrong

[muted trail]

Thats okay but

[thorn egret]

i'm not addicted

[muted trail]

Yes that is fine

But remember, there is a line and you have to be careful who you follow

[thorn egret]

yeah, besides i barely use any social medias aside from youtube

[muted trail]

You are great

[old solar]

you never know who's behind that vtuber model or who they really are until they show their true colors.

[muted trail]

Exactly

[thorny hinge]

my dumbass still doesn't exactly know what a guilty pleasure is

[muted trail]

I am starry the star and I know i am not a star irl

But i call myself one

[old solar]

dont call yourself a dumbass, you got time to learn

[thorn egret]

it's something you like, but it may be controversial or simply embarrassing

[thorny hinge]

ah

[muted trail]

The reason i called myself starrythestar is because stars always gave me positivity, my mom used to sing twinkle, twinkle litte star and the most beautiful cartoons of my childhood had a lot of stars

[thorn egret]

that's sweet

[muted trail]

Yes it is NOT random

I mean i was originally starrystarshine, unfortunately too many people used the name “Starshine” so i renamed it to starry the star and took some inspiration from “Sonic The Hedgehog”

I encourage people to do the same

Make what gives you happiness your style

[thorn egret]

🥲
clapclapclapclapclap

[muted trail]

Also be original and not like Logan LeDouche or what vtubers try to be

If i am going to be Starry the star under the rule of a corp, i am not Starry the star

[old solar]

ehhh, the Logan Paul v Tyson fight was rigged so

[thorn egret]

who won that fight

[muted trail]

Jake LeDouche

unfortunately

[old solar]

oh my b

Jake paul, not logan paul

[muted trail]

But that is not the point raymond

The point is when you are you who else can be you, but you

[pine delta]

Old man vs fit guy in his 30s who wins

[old solar]

old man cuz he's more experienced

[muted trail]

That is what is wrong with everyone these days they use the same style and don’t even show any creativity

[pine delta]

And pushing 60

This is a very physical sport

[muted trail]

Yes

[old solar]

he still would've beat his ass if the fight wasn't rigged

[pine delta]

He isn't iron anymore

[muted trail]

But point is, I would rather try to make it myself and not have it decided for me

Seriously though, @muted trail is better of dead than controlled by a third party

Am i right?

[real forum]

Anyone else think Avarice from Disturbed fits Doomslayer (I posted a link to the song in #music

[thorn egret]

the instrumental has potential to be his theme

and that opening riff sounds like E1M2 - The Imps Song

[muted trail]

So gas anyone else ever gone to 8 broken vending machines only to find that the first was the one that is not broken

[elfin epoch]

If there ever is a new doom movie (probabl never) I want HEALTH to make the soundtrack

[long cosmos]

I'm so exited for the new Doom game, i've played most of the Doom games, beat a lot of them, and is ready to beat The Dark Ages

[pine delta]

Chat what are the chances that movie studios try to replicate the Minecraft movies success by trying to artificially create meme moments for the trailers?

[long cosmos]

Talk about Doom only in chat

it says in rules

[upbeat spade]

This is general

You can talk about anything

[thorn egret]

i'm tired of being a group leader, and i'm tired of beinf held accountable for every single problem that arises, despite some of my members screwing us all over

[floral marlin]

general

anyways

I love Minecraft so much

explored a whole ancient city this time in my own world

my first time was in a realm I used to play

and this time I found out that you can use a netherite hoe to quickly mine the shriekers and stuff

made it a lot easier, my first time exploring an ancient city I used my pickaxe, which even with efficiency V it took like a good 2 or 3 seconds to mine shriekers and sensors

[sturdy summit]

Chat I might try and get my pc now

[tardy arrow]

Do it.

John carmack defending AI generated games isn’t surprising

[thorn egret]

uploaded by Weird Al

the visuals themselves are AI generated, but the voice is Samuel L. Jackson himself

[floral marlin]

that snow white movie was so ass
nothing could fix it

[thorn egret]

no wait why did i say Weird Al

[elfin epoch]

AI is disgusting imo

When it comes to using it for art

[thorn egret]

put your phone facing down, or turn off the monitor, and listen to the audio it's funny

[elfin epoch]

Already did

[valid whale]

Damn wrong server mb

[thorn egret]

...oop

[elfin epoch]

your legacy will live on

[thorn egret]

all we need is a real non-AI Samuel L Jackson wearing a Snow White dress

[elfin epoch]

No

Samuel Hayden

[thorn egret]

that put a funny mental image in my head

[tardy arrow]

You'll give Thomas ideas.

[thorn egret]

do not summon him

[elfin epoch]

Thomas

[thorn egret]

no

[elfin epoch]

Thomas

[thorn egret]

no don't ping

[elfin epoch]

Dear god

[tardy arrow]

[elfin epoch]

HES HERE

[sturdy summit]

Hrhrgrhr I have to do monthly payments but that's not too hard imo

FUCK IM MISSING 10 FUCKING DOLLARS.

[elfin epoch]

Jobs bro

[tardy arrow]

Paying off a puter isn't too bad, it goes by relatively quickly.

[elfin epoch]

Thecfucks a puter

[tardy arrow]

A friend did it for her system and she ended up with a stronger one than I have.

[sturdy summit]

Hrr I could just get rid of the monitor but I lowkey need the monitor

[tardy arrow]

Eventually I'll get a 5090, maybe 6090 then establish my dominance again as the superior puter haver.

I could probably help pick out somewhere to reduce cost, gimme a look.

[sturdy summit]

I also got hit w $45aud shipping 💀

[elfin epoch]

Give me a budget and some coke and I’ll make doom 4 1.0 real

[sturdy summit]

Bet bet lemme get a screenie

[tardy arrow]

Also, refund got approved so I had to walk into town carrying a big-ass box, and my arm still hurts so much from doing that yesterday.

Pretty sure I fucked my ankle doing it too, it does not want to work today.

Explodes

Ik I could get rid of some storage, maybe that hard drive

[tardy arrow]

I'm ngl there's not a lot to reduce lmfao

[sturdy summit]

Also all their higher ram sold out

Same w the power supplies

[tardy arrow]

You might be able to get rid of Wifi and bluetooth, because I guarantee that's gonna be a seperate card

and the motherboard has built-in wifi

[sturdy summit]

I can't say no :D

[tardy arrow]

so you wouldn't need the wifi and bluetooth card, unless you really want bluetooth for whatever reason

but you definitely don't need a wifi card.

Mobo's got that covered.

[sturdy summit]

nyx I can't deselect it

[tardy arrow]

You just have to connect the included wifi antennas to the motherboard, which is pretty straight forward

hm.

[sturdy summit]

It's nit something that adds money lmfao

[tardy arrow]

fuck lmfao.

[sturdy summit]

I think I can sacrifice the monitor

[tardy arrow]

what're the cooler options? I do not think you need a Kraken 240 to cool a 7500F.

[sturdy summit]

I do have a shitty TV i don't use that i can use until I get a proper monitor

[thorn egret]

👗

[tardy arrow]

Nah, keep the monitor; cooler doesn't need to be water.

[sturdy summit]

Haha it has to be :D
Due to the style of the pc itself, it's the taro tea one I showed you :3
