id co-founder John Carmack revisits Doom at QuakeCon: 'Still a great game after all these years!'
Not a controversial opinion, by any means.
At this year's QuakeCon in Gaylord, Texas, id Software's legendary programmer John Carmack revisited the game that started it all: Doom. Carmack tried the Evercade Doom port and found himself quickly immersed in the game. He recalled forgetting the location of keycards and spending 15 minutes on each level four and five. Carmack expressed that Doom remains a great game even after all these years.
This sentiment echoes that of John Romero, another id Software co-founder, who is currently working on Sigil expansions and trying out the MyHouse.wad map.
