He worked on Doom because he wanted to solve 3D graphics in games, he did and everything after that was just optimizations. Then he went to VR, where he also worked out everything he wanted and also all remained was optimization.
He said in interview that he had two choices of what to work on next, either fusion energy or AGI and he decided on the latter because former involved too much politics and engaging with lawmakers, goverments, permissions and shit while AI was still wild west.
