I find that rather ironic because I seem to recall that Doomworld made fun of those exact kinds of maps nearly 16 years ago with Tormentor667's detail guide being given the Worst Wad in Cacowards 2009.
Don't know if I could judge - but I personally see the "scenery" as a backdrop for the action, or somehow incorportated into the gameplay process. Like details on a facade of the big buildings which serves as the main walking ground, or rock formations with trees and other decorations placed up high and out of reach. It's doable and greatly improves one's map's playthrough experience - but DW mappers are currently trying to make maps look good on the automap, so I think it'll be some time until they sober up again.
Good find. I completely forgot about this. It's very ironic and these idiots used to make fun of the modern games with realistic and beautiful graphics at the time as well, making sure to tell you in the face how Doom is a better game because gameplay is the focus on it, not the graphics, to which admittedly, I agree..... except..
Still, it will get an award, for sure. Though the person doesn't have pronouns written on their bio, so it probably isn't a tranny.....probably.
I get ya. Details are great if they don't hinder the gameplay or if author puts equal amount of time in the gameplay part, balancing/polishing, so the wad can be eye-candy and yet fun to play.
You could say that again. No good map I ever played put emphasis on automap layout in this way. Some sector art is usually used for decorative flourishes, or trivial things like secrets and maybe credits areas in super-secret maps. The beauty of the map, both gameplay and aesthetics, should be visible while playing it, and not staring at lines.
They did. It's just kind of hidden and they pretend the levels weren't changed at all, instead they say they were "restored".
The moment that happens it will be over. Not just for Troonworld trannies, but the entire Doom community. That will be the point where everyone will start accusing each other of using AI to build entire portions of maps and everything will turn into soulless slop.
This has already happened, in a sense. MAP03 of Community Chest 2 - SLIGE control; except it was a mapper adding detail to an AI's map.
As if it isn't the situation already with the kewl kidz sharting out the same slaughtershit maps with monochromatic and "elaborate" geometry. I know it's due to autism no need to point out the obvious.
What's with the sky texture? I see these out of place green blobs. They should've made that texture with the palette in mind (if they did they failed). That aside the map looks very plain and ugly.
What's the context of this?
Just some DoomerBoards stuff that was discussed on there. Mostly 40oz complaining about being rejected from the DW social club.
I wish DBP would be managed by someone who isn't a drama-chasing and Troonworld dick-sucking faggot. All this DBP drama stems from him in the first place anyway.
40 can map and give critique well, but his ideology clouds his mind each time he enters a discussion. I remember DB felt the best when he had a hiatus, because there were no threads with his libshit textwalls. He came back, and afterwards all the retardation which eventually lead us to him creating "Dumbworld" and doubling down on bowing to DW.
His ideology aligns with the retards at Troonworld, that's the only way I see it. Seems that he wants to grift like those "trying to be anti-woke YouTubers" as well.
Pretty much every Troonworld poster nowadays is an ugly retarded POS. All the sane posters more or less left that cesspit or are trying to suck Trooworld admin dick.And how, in the name of all Doom gods, does he complain about the difficulty being easy, while he's intentionally playing on HNTR? What sort of special needs retard does it take to be so lacking in logic and self-awareness? It has to be the sort that looks like this:
That MFG guy is on something. For a second public map, from thread OP, it looks great. It's probably not his second map ever (As in, not the second one he made) but congrats to him on finally publishing something, I'd give it a try.
