Is this supposed to be some kind of subtle slam at John Carmack?

"VR(A thing that Carmack is doing) has run out of control! Only an old school FPS protagonist(Romero's rise to fame) can save us all!"

I hope it's good but I don't like giving money to crowdfunding. If it truly is an FPS Expert that will bring Sucking it Down™ into the new millennium then I will buy it on release.


Also I asked John and he said that Superfly Johnson will not be in the game.

The hack the environment thing sounds like BioShock Infinite or perhaps that Syndicate FPS. It's not really a mechanic I've been yearning to see again.

Would be better if they stopped saying Hoxar. Or if Romero cut his hair.

Romero cutting his hair would be the worst possible outcome for this kickstarter campaign.

He last cut his hair at roughly the same time he married that Russian teenager he met on the internet, just saying.

I can't laugh at any photos of John Carmack because no matter how nerdy he looks his work will always be more impressive. He even has a stereotypical nerd register and it completely disappears because he can talk for thirty-plus minutes and it's all distilled programming / game design genius insight.

Would I back his Kickstarter? Absolutely not.

You're a bit late, Carmack already ran a kickstarter for a garage kit toy and then sold it to Facebook for $2 billion.
