Whiny nerds who haven’t read a new book in over two decades shed tears over the fact their boring-ass game sucks and is getting swirlied in the toilet bowl by actual cool games
Idtech engines
I suspect that ID lost one of their most important people when Steven Ash died, this man has consistently had a hand in projects that have turned into cult hits or very high quality games in some way and I don’t think that’s a coincidence, I think they were probably highly influential on every single team they were on. I would be very tentative about assuming ID’s work maintains the current quality without him.
