Hah, if you were one of those modern gamers, you'd be so sad and dperessed that you can't have 60 FPS on 4k. In fact, 60 FPS is way too little, you'd want at least 160 ;)

Oh, I don't imagine you as the kind of person who'd watch porn. Dominus, on the other hand... I bet there are erotic mods for Skyrin, though. Knowing gamers' mentality, they are probably really over the top.

MMO's try to motivate you to try out the new content through some pretty nasty moves, like having the earliest and fairly common items you find there be noticeably better than the rare stuff you struggled to find outside this new content. So when a new expansion comes, it's like all your efforts were for nothing, since the awesome gear you got has now become useless garbage.

And that's how you get hired to write the story for the next Thief game! Try adding a sadistic father figure as well, to reach undreamed of new heights of grittiness.

I'm glad the phonetic typeset doesn't use any special key combos, that would be a hassle for sure. But since we have more letters than your alphabet, a few non-letter keys have to be used as well, most notably "~", "\" and the square brackets. Someone was thoughtful enough to assign these keys to some of the rarely-used letters, so you wouldn't have to press them often.

Trying to imagine LURK with fluff on. Perhaps a Chthon dropping from the ceiling or some random lava balls flying all over the place, heh.

Mmm, yes, I've had RPG characters getting stuck and becoming unplayable due to horribly messed-up development. It suddenly turns out I put all my stat and skill points in all the wrong places. And now you face a boss you can't kill in any way...

Well, not exactly a socialist. I have come to the realization that all problems in the world can be solved by providing everyone with cheap sausages. So now I'm working on a model to accomplish this grand goal.

Indeed, it was a pleasant aurprise that you went so far - with the horrible controls and the somewhat harder older versions of a few missions (and don't forget Daum's peculiarities during the first few tries that led to choppiness). We could try streaming some Doom maps too - probably focus on the better stuff, after all the crappiness you endured. There's lots of things to do, we just have to have good organization. An efficient alarm clock would be nice too (for you :P ). And you're right, an experience feels like having more meaning when it's shared. I remember how fun it is when I watched a few old DOS streams with that Dutch guy, we'd comment on things we remember, joke about stuff...

It's true that the Hexen thing was a little rushed, and I relize I allowed my excitement to get the better of me. But sure, we can try again - there's still the Mage to try out (maybe he could be the One?). And then there's Hexen II, which should be a lot more interesting since it has the added bonus of experiencing a Quake engine with lots of cool improvements (and no more sprites!). Weekends sound like the natural time to try, we'll just have to sync schedules - best done over Discord, I think.
