Bill Grates from Michaelsoft said I'd only ever need 640k.
This is why I play Wargames. That new X-Com game only needs 2MB of RAM. No need for those shmancy graphics. Just some dudes.

Dude at least Ultima 1 might work, maybe.
What's bad in disliking retro graphics? Each person has its own preferences / taste. If you're smart, you should already know this. I don't like those old graphics from '90s up to 2002. Am I stupid for this? No.

^ thank you for being open-minded :) Tastes differ, everyone to his taste.
Why don't you taste the business end of my rocket launcher?

No one said you were stupid. All I said was that you were being disrespectful to not only this game series, but to a member of our own.
So I don't think you're stupid, but I think you did a very silly thing and that is that. It implies nothing else, I don't think you're even a bad guy, if you thought that.
I just suggest we agree to disagree, because I already made my point very clear, and I don't think I could rephrase it any other way.

To be honest, the problem is that the main games discussed here are pre-Doom 3, since the later isn't remembered so fondly. So you are coming in here with an unpopular opinion.
We should set up a multiplayer game of Doom 3, that was my favorite part of that game.

Oh... let me rephrase then: I am not disrespectful to the game series. I loved Doom 1 and 2, but the only thing I hated was their graphics :) And since I saw a trailer with those retro graphics, I expressed my opinion. No hate towards the creator of the trailer.

Sure, that's fine with me dude. I don't have any problem with you and I think its cool you explained yourself. Kudos to you.

Dwarf Fortress thread has it beat. There's a few arguments that pop up here, I've never seen a single one in the DF thread.
There's no DF argument that can't be solved by talking about mass slaughter, gigantic contraptions or gigantic contraptions of mass slaughter.
Here, we unfortunately do not have gigantic contraptions of mass slaughter to discuss.
Have any of you ever taken a step back to think about the fact that right now, at this very moment, there is a Revenant inside you?

In all honesty, we're a niche with very few people, all of us get along for the most part, and I assume that due to its specific niche (very old game), a few of us at least, are older than average, a few years is a big difference in FP's age demographic.

After a marathon of Brutal Doom v19, you're too exhausted to maintain arguments!
Speaking of revenants. One day I'm gonna make a playable revenant class, I know there's a few that exist but they're pretty bad.
Attacks would include haymakers, shoulder rockets, and the ability to AAAAAAAAAAAA which will either make enemies run in fear or cause them to explode cus you just spooked their guts out

Don't tempt me. Someone recently made a mod where archviles revive everything into revenants, and pain elementals shoot revenants
Am I the only one running ultra-violence with fastmonsters?
it's like as close as possible to nightmare but without having to speedrun.
makes map32 of plutonia very memorable too.

AAAAAA, should be pretty easy, just a button that activates Anubis for a bit + Invisible AoE from around you.
A version of Scientist Slaughterhouse for Doom where players play as revenants and compete for who-ever can kill the most Doom marines in a set time.
revenants are shit
80 damage homing missiles at point blank because it got mad of me baiting his melee to whiff

It's UV + fast if I want a non-BS challenge,
and plain UV if I want a more relaxing run.
Anything less is for babies.

Sounds easy besides the revenant graphics (for first person). Maybe I'll look into it

Don't forget to make some Doom Marine clones whom you could gib for Health Items (Organs).
didn't term make a spinoff of samsara where you played as boss monsters and enemies were replaced by marines with various weapons

Unless I'm mistaken, term's never made a variant like that, tho there is a mod called Beast Incarnation in which you do play as monsters vs marines, and it pops up from time to time on doomseeker/zand servers. Fun mod, actually, gets insanely hectic pretty easily, especially if you have lots of players. Only real problem I have with the mod is that the menu for selecting your monster is incredibly shitty. As in, flickers a shitload, greys out half the time, and fails to register button presses. If you manage to actually get past that it's actually really good.
