Was it, ultimately, a watershed moment for Doom?
Anonymous No.12036889 [Report] >>12036905 >>12036927 >>12038219
People who think this is the greatest thing ever done with Doom are the same people who think Skinamarink is a good horror film.

I think it's cool, though it's really more it's own thing that uses Doom as a base. The playstyle and goals are more akin to an adventure game than a normal Doom level, and I don't think anybody has praised it for its clever combat scenarios and enemy usage.

The love of jank horror fake meme stuff is "content creator" bait, right? Reaction based gaming, so to speak.

I didn't bother looking into anything on this mod because it looked gay and stupid and everyone who brought it up and gushed about it were gay and stupid, so I assume it's just gay and stupid. Just like classic doom "fans" who can't enjoy anything classic doom related without brutal.

Not him, but I assume he means content that is made with the express purpose of being played, reacted to, and analyzed by YouTubers and streamers. As in, the goal is less for Doomers to play and be amazed by, but rather for some 25-40 year olds to get scared by and sőyface over on camera, or make 45 minute video essays with titles like "myhouse.wad - the perfect Doom WAD" or "myhouse.wad is a beautiful depiction of depression and loss" or "The myhouse.wad Iceberg Explained"

It's like meta-squared content creation. Creation for the secondhand experience. Art as a project to produce a reaction to the production of art.
The recursive rabbit hole of consciousness sped up by mass communication induced voyeurism.

Yes, good example. Let's plays and streaming changed games. The interplay of Audience and Developer had a third party introduced who leads to attention and/or sales, the "Content" Creator. leading to games as kayfabe.

This is just Gone Home but instead of only disrespecting the concept of a video game in general it disrespects Doom in particular. Both are mega turbo gay and so are you for making this thread.

is that a euphemism for he accidentally killed a baby? men can't have miscarriages, not even the funny loss man

Just watched a video about it and apparently it's about the horrors of gay faggots not being able to buttfuck each other

No. It was fairly well made overall and it got attention (and actually earned it, unlike certain crap), but in terms of Doom content there's nothing really revolutionary about it.
It's a high effort work which had the right kind of themes for zoomers to latch onto (especially gay ones), and it got picked up by the algorithm.

It's already kind of forgotten about by most people, and it hasn't had that much direct influence on mapping and modding, but kinda like Brutal Doom did back in the day, it drew in a wave of new blood, which is ultimately helpful for overall community longevity.

>>12036910
In the sense that this is a style of horror which younger generations is very receptive too, yes.

>>12036934
Already been discussed to death there. My personal sentiment is repeated a lot by others.

>>12036941
>>12037393
There are some gay themes, yes. A really short and dumbed down summary of MyHouse is if someone looked at Gone Home and thought
>"... but what if I did something kinda like that, but I made it like an actual videogame with real gameplay? And if I put some actual effort into it too?"

Unless you're a fag, you won't relate to all of its themes, but it actually has merits beyond that.

I thought the reveal wasn't that they were gay lovers, but rather that Tom and Steve were the same person and that's why they're the exact same age and died the same day.

It got discussed to death in the Doom threads on release and the common sentiment seemed to be "yeah it's pretty good but once you've gotten the true ending there's nothing else to see in it"

I think the dev tailored it to the algorithm and the zeitgeist. It's a very self-conscious process that a lot of these guys are undertaking, like volunteering for the CV buffs.
