My parents hung on to having two phones lines with dial up internet instead of getting broadband for a very long time lol

I'm surprised I got ISDN (two 64K channels so I could use internet and have a phone line active) way too early in like 1998, while 99% of homes in here barely had dial-up. It wasn't a good line for downloading but latency with my dedicated card was superb (talking about a 18-25ms ping from Spain to german servers for example) so it was waaaay better than the DSL they started offering in early 2000's

Doom II was on what, five 1.44mb floppies? And the highest capacity 5.25" was 1.2Mb so how do you get to 12?

Original Doom release was four floppies and Doom 2 five (counting 1.44mb ones of course). Never seen the 5.25" release in EU tho

I'm getting a PS5 physical copy both for my collection and to eventually play it there. I'll still play it on PC first.

50% awesome (Sticky Bomb launcher), and 50% suck (Full Auto, jesus gently caress what were they thinking)

Full auto sucks more so when the ammo pool in Doom Eternal is just tiny. And well, the damage output sucks too.

I always thought that game would have done better if it didn't have such a terrible title.

The game (2nd on the series) was doing really well even on PC despite GFWL, but then lack of support and the announced death of said horrible GFWL killed it.

I had a lot of fun with it and even had a nice horde mode that let you build defenses. Endgame PvP eventually became a weapon meta that didn't get balance driving the playerbase down.

Pagb666 is doing a playthrough of PF and seems to be of the opinion it's just an ok shooter with jank. I still went with Pirate Doom 2 instead because excellent and free sounded better than $25 and mediocre.

Phantom Fury is humble bundle filler meat imo.

I like Rage 2's combat more than Doom Eternal and I say this as a positive thing. Doom Eternal went too much into Dante Must Die difficulty for me. I really liked Doom Eternal and the DLCs but for me is a one and done forever.

I really like Heretic 2, it's playable nowadays but a source port or remaster of sorts would be amazing imo.
