      The ends of all the E1 maps were originally designed to be hub-like airlocks. You can see this in "A visit at id software" where Romero is seen playing a lot of E1 from a couple months prior to release. The end rooms were a little more overtly "airlocks" with two doors on each end and the switch in the middle.

    "Player movement was more important...."
    "It was way more worth the feeling you got from the skill movement, which has kinda left games"
    John Romero - the one man in the games industry who understands the importance of advanced movement control. The Quakeworld movement was awesome and it feels great to just jump around an empty map. In Daikatana he extended the QW physics further, and tried to innovate with ideas like recoil jumps. It wasn't perfect, but I had some fun duels on Storm Sector 7.
    After Romero left Id they made Quake 2 with it's brain dead movement control with no air acceleration. Then came Q3test, where Carmack tried to block strafe jumping during by adding a delay after two jumps. It was clear that Romero was the reason that Id's early games were good, and once he left they went down hill.
    Please Romero, make another duel game! Save us from the mediocrity of Quake Live and the incompetence of SyncError!

    I've pegged my fair share of comments about the engine itself, I hold Carmack to extremely high esteem, and I've done the same for Romero and his level design - but can we all take a second and really appreciate the thought that went into this game just in terms of the menu? Key mapping, individual volume control for sound and music, those things aren't even in a lot of INDIE games now days, I just think that's another thing that made id the quintessential game dev of the time.

    • @KIager

    The entire talk about putting leaderboards into games and time attacks... the first game I remember having anything like that was Sonic Adventure on the Sega Dreamcast.

    When Romero published his Sigil WAD in 2019, he dedicated one chapter of the Readme to laying out the rules of that "fragile alliance" style of co-op he mentions at the end of the video (which he eventually named Exitmatch).
    I've never liked the infinite respawns of co-op, since they make victory inevitable, so this variant sounds like it'd make that game mode way more fun to play.

      They hired a famous Apple computer software designer (nicknamed Burger Bill at the time) to code the Super Nintendo port of Wolfenstein 3D, however Bill had accidentally licensed the game to just Interplay, the publishers of Wolfenstein 3D, and not id Software. It was too late to make the change, and Burger Bill was subsequently fired by id. Shortly afterwards, Wisdom Tree approached id to ask if they could make a SNES game using the engine. In an act of spite, id agreed and gave them the dev tools.

  • @NoobixCube
    @NoobixCube 8 років тому +5

    It's a shame Daikatana wasn't a success. I mean, it was a commercial flop, but its two biggest crimes were being ahead of its time, and late to market. Couple that with making practically the whole game an escort mission, with fumbly AI for the companions, and one can see why it failed. A hugely ambitious game that probably would have been better if development had started two years later.

    • @NoobixCube
      @NoobixCube 8 років тому +5

      The ideas were certainly bold, but no. It wasn't just that it was late or ahead of it's time. The first chunk of Daikatana is riddle with literal WTF WERE YOU THINKING? design choices. Like having your ubiqitous enemies by the most annoying Goddamn things ever. Cyborg frogs and mosquitoes. The Lost Souls in Doom were always regarded as the most annoying enemy in the game... Let's make ALL the first tier enemies like that.
      If Romero had done what I think his passion really lied, a multiplayer skill shooter, he could have been the Quake 3 and Unreal Tournament killer if the focus of Daikatana had been strictly the arena combat.
