Pog? I can't even imagine what the mod community will cook up for this game. QoL, new enemies, maps, weapons? The possibilities are endless
- "I made all the enemies Teletubbies"
  
  And of course the ever-popular "I gave the Teletubby skins gigantic boobs"
  
  If there isn't a randy savage hell knight I have no faith in humanity.
- First thing I thought of was "I wonder if I can recreate the original game's levels with this."
  
  Original as in Eternal's levels themselves or DOOM 1993's?
- Isabelle from animal crossing rip and tear when?
- Make enemies sexier
  
  impossible. they don't call him mancubus for no reason 🥵
- It means that people could basically make endless games out of it, right?
- Another Duke Nukem 3D remake that'll get taken down by Randy Bitchford.
Can the mod community chip in and hire Mick Gordon for a couple more tracks? Just a couple. Ya'll got any of them Mick Gordon tracks left?
justice for mick
- Yeah Mick was wronged, but also from what snippets I gathered, he's kind of a diva?
  
  if you believe company pr people, sure why not. mick had receipts. and I'll believe a talking ferret before i give any company pr person any credence. they lie for a living.
"Doom Eternal" eternal confirmed?
Myhouse.wad eternal edition when
- IgwtThisReference.wad ...straight to jail sir...
- Probably would take a team of 3 a year to make for Eternal
- Mymars.wad
Cool to see behind the scenes at modern IdTech tools
- I wish they released the engine like they used to. IdTech whatever version we're on now has to be epic.
  
  It’s kind of awesome to think every call of duty game, valve game and Id software game still all use an engine that originated from quake!
Marty Stratton of id Software tries to throw Mick Gordon and his entire music production career in front of a bus over the Doom Eternal OST issues: https://www.reddit.com/r/Doom/comments/gdg25y/doom_eternal_ost_open_letter/

Mick Gordon responds with receipts and even time stamps in files from the id audio designer: https://medium.com/@mickgordon/my-full-statement-regarding-doom-eternal-5f98266b27ce

Bethesda's eventual response in a tone seeming written by Stratton himself: https://www.reddit.com/r/Doom/comments/1enfvfm/has_marty_stratton_found_his_appropriate_venue_yet/

Fuck anything from id Software/Bethesda/ZeniMaxi Media until chucklefuck Marty Stratton is out.
- Here's a YouTube video about this that's pretty informative.
4K HDoom remake incoming?
- They just released a Doom 1/2 combo pack that has a bunch of mods included as well as a mod browser for new mods. And the mods are all supported on console. I was playing Doom in Princess Peach's castle on my Xbox yesterday.
Id Software is so fucking based
Ooooo and it's on sale.
Love this game!
Is there a version that makes audio with Bluetooth headphones actually work? I tried playing the other day and it was completely unplayable.
- I think that has more to do with your system and the quality of Bluetooth audio than it does the specific game or application.
  
  No, it's fairly common. You can find a number of people complaining about the same thing. No other games, including Doom 2016, have this issue.
