The creators of id Software and some of gaming's most iconic games are back with a new Kickstarter campaign with a goal of $700,000. Once the goal is reached, development will start immediately and the developers will secure the remaining funds with investors. The game is scheduled for a PC and Mac release in winter 2018.

The Kickstarter campaign describes Blackroom as "a visceral, varied and violent shooter that harkens back to classic FPS play with a mixture of exploration, speed, and intense, weaponized combat. Use fast, skillful movement to dodge enemy attacks, circle-strafe your foes, and rule the air as you rocket jump in the single- and multiplayer modes. BLACKROOM launches with unique multiplayer maps and robust modding support for the community to make diabolical creations of their own design."

Never bothered to look up who made them.
How? id software's FPS's are basically the reason we have FPS's. They set the standards that all FPS's to this day still follow. These aren't so obscure games, these are id software FPS's
They don't need to list the games they made because it's literal common knowledge.

Only played doom twice, not any of the others. Also could be due to my general dislike of fps games. Only ones I like is the first red faction and unreal tourment 2004.

Heh. Quake was one of the, if not the only real competitor to Unreal Tournament back in the day. They're a somewhat similar style of FPS.

    Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    He couldn't eat until after his MRI, when he had a bomb pop.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    What matters now is that he's doing alright.
