doom_txt @doomtxt.bsky.social · 10/07/2026As for the "Arena Multiplayer Shooter" genre being dead: It's not! it's been rebranded a dozen times, through the marketing equivalent of a mathslop account rearranging common math equations to make them look cooler. It's like if I invited friends over to my house, but dubbed it an "IRL Podcast". 1103
doom_txt @doomtxt.bsky.social · 10/07/2026For some reason "the market" hates badass AAA single player titles, regardless of how many play and love them - it's almost like the gamers aren't the real market here I guess you won't see an archvile in the toy aisle like you will a buff Peter Griffin; THAT'S what "the market" is pissed off about 091
doom_txt @doomtxt.bsky.social · 10/07/2026Quake Live and Quake Champions tried to capture that elusive recurring revenue market, but it didn't do so well, because the gamers who play id's games aren't the same people who gamble on "anime skin minimal wear strange unusual, will trade for two refined". 1176
doom_txt @doomtxt.bsky.social · 10/07/2026id games don't have that "twitch streamer" allure. They aren't for iPad kids, and they aren't full of gambling gacha brainrot, anime tiddy, or knife skins. They don't have a sleazy marketplace tempting your son to steal your credit card. They're actual games, with actual endings. 0152
doom_txt @doomtxt.bsky.social · 10/07/2026Actually, I do have something to add. The same thing that happened to id will happen to Epic. That line must go up. Silly antics like Pomni in Fortnite only do so much until streamers, kiddos and gambling addicts move on to Roblox or whatever else isn't wrecked completely by out of touch management. 092
doom_txt @doomtxt.bsky.social · 10/07/2026I've been trying to come up with a statement that hasn't already been stated, or add a new perspective to the current shit show that is "out of touch executives" without my rage resurrecting the embalmed corpse of Lenin, but I've yet to concoct anything substantial. 0285

doom_txt @doomtxt.bsky.social · 05/12/2024Without getting too nerdy, some crypto bro team made a glorified packet driver that works alongside a Blockchain, and since Doom works with a packet driver, they ported Doom to it, tried to make it multiplayer, and it runs like absolute ass. 010
