Wasn't this hack fraud supposed to make a game or something? He announced it like a decade ago

are you thinking of that kickstarter game that was cancelled 6 years ago or the one that was funded by ms that was cancelled when ms fired a bunch of people like they do every 3 months now?

Last news were Microsoft funding his team but then they got kicked because that's the Microsft thing to do. Not sure if they are looking for publishers now and savage the project, it was supposed to be a FPS.

Give him a break, he was trying to get funds for his FPS since the '10s. Maybe he'll be able to release it before he dies.

Last i remembered he cancelled this one. Was he working on another vaporware? i kind of checked out on paying attention to this hack rather than stroking his ego like other internet retards often do. But i do remember reading some headline that Microsoft cancelled another apparent "game" so he might have fooled people again.

>>741002067
he probably realized that for now every single time you are making a game a pack of je-I mean consultants are going to walk up to you with a list of your employees and your budget and tell you "Nice game you have here, sure would be a problem online if you didn't do exactly what we want with it."
Luckily recent games have proved that "consultants" and "journalists" are completely powerless so there is no reason to bribe them anymore.

>On 19 July 2022 Romero Games announced that they are starting work on an original, new AAA FPS IP with Unreal Engine 5. Microsoft announced a 4% reducing of staff across the entire organization in July 2025, affecting about 9000 workers. This included the cancellation of several games within Xbox Game Studios and the termination of funding for Romero's project, which led Romero Games to lay off an undisclosed number of employees and seek a new publisher.

At least Microsoft is not the publisher anymore. They're like Midas hand but instead of gold they turn everything they touch into shit.

i'm just waiting for his doom 2 megawad
enough doom 1 stuff john let's see what you can really do with the doom 2 enemies after you barely made anything for the original
>>
>>741002443
Yeah, but the game is also very likely cancelled. I can't imagine anyone would look at the history of Romero Games and be willing to give them money after seeing that they have been in business for 11 years and not made a single successful game.

That shit deserved to fail even if it wasn't a piece of shit like it was. I'll call it politically correct nonsense if people are tired of hearing things being refereed to as "woke" because every knows that this picture is garbage. Girlboss women, blacks the head of era appropriately racist sicilian/Italian families etc. is just not how you make these games.

He got rightfully catapulted off the xbox free paycheck.
This is the type of nothing producing hack people freak out about when reading layoffs.
This shit and the blank check for Perfect Dark were 10% doomed to fail and not produce anything from the start.

Funny because he got listed as the victims of Microsoft mismanagement under Phil Spencer from all of the snoy gloating but some of these idiots didn't know about Black Room and that Romero is actually just incompetent and never released anything for a reason.

I am well aware of the well oiled machinery that is anti xbox outrage clickbaiting. Seeing it fully in action right now again after the great e3 show saw too well of a reception.

People for some reason believe that if someone makes something great and innovative, they somehow are bound to keep making great and innovative products.
It doesn't work that way, most people have a limited "greatness juice" capacity and once it runs out, it never comes back.

In his mind, they aren’t lies. Doom 2 was made in a year and a half, 30 years ago. It’s not easy to remember a specific year from 30 years ago at the office where you used to work.
I had a friend (poor guy, he passed away) who was like that. He liked to reminisce about stories from his teenage years, things that had happened 10 years ago, but his memories were extremely inaccurate. Sometimes I wondered if he was lying to embellish the stories, but over time I just came to accept that in his mind, imagination blends with reality.
>>
>>741010103
Its been over 20 years. He probably just gets shit mixed up.
>>
>>741010432
Oops, I did what Sandy did and shared some inaccurate information.
Anyway, John Romero called off the campaign right at the start, probably because of what I said. When he realized that his name alone wasn’t enough to raise the necessary funds, he promised a demo, likely thinking it would provide the marketing boost he needed, but he never delivered it.

The image was funny until the part where you realize it was made as an attack on Peterson due to his politics and not by someone who cares about video game history.

>>741007268
He doesn't need to make anything revolutionary. Just something that is okay and competent. Even carmack, the human robot with zero creativity that he is, did that with quake 2, doom 3 and rage.

Only talking about doom 1/2 over 30 years later really tells he has nothing going on. which is sad as he is pretty likeable personally
