  • Yup, I was frienda with his older brother. Both of them were/are a bit weird, didn’t think much of either of them academically until grade 12. Then their math & and computer genious came out. Had a few university classes with them, the older brother has better social skills, but Lee is more creative IMHO.

    Upshot is I played Capsized in 2009, so that was neat.



  • I’ve been meaning to try the original Crysis now that I have a computer that can play it. I started it, but then life happened.

    DOOM Eternal didn’t do it for me. It’s Doom-ish, but not enough. It’d be a better game if it wasn’t set in the Doom universe trying to add a bunch of non-Doom elements to the game. Doom (2016) did that too, but not to the same extent. I like the older Dooms mostly for their simplicity: get gun, see bad guy, shoot gun. Pick up health. Repeat. Doom Eternal did that, but added a story, weapon mods, and skills. Fine mechanics, but not Doom enough for me.


















  • Not really. Modern games will claim to be free to play, with many parts of the game hidden behind microtransactions, or they’ll be paid with the option to buy more.

    Doom never claimed to be free to play. It was always 100% up front that the shareware version wasn’t much more than a playable demo. The paid version of Doom was the complete game.
