Doomworld - AKA Troonworld, a dedicated safe space for pedophiles and megalomaniacs - Corrupting the Doom community since 2016

Sorry to disappoint you, but DB seems to be on its way out. If you've followed the thread and checked the past few pages, you'll notice that 40oz has been actively hostile to his own userbase and betrayed them. The list of contributors is going down and the userbase is shrinking.
I'm fully aware of the tragedy. Truly fun places online are going extinct because of dumb faggots like 40oz who like the taste of pooner rotdogs and amhole "juice". The fed up contributors can join us here and create new wads;)
 
What other engines do you guys run? I've had good times with Eternity, Woof!, and Crispy.

Helion looked interesting.

I tried Eternity for Skillsaw’s Heartland, and that was kind of a meh experience. Maybe I just didn’t get the settings right.

GZDoom is awful but necessary for ZDoom wads. Although UZ will be gay, it will remove texture filtering by default which is based.
 
Is it bad that I pretty much just stick with GZDoom? Runs whatever wad I throw at it without any fuss, and I beat the settings into submission long ago to mimic vanilla as much as possible, save for a few QOL things and personal preferences. If I ever want true vanilla, I have machines for that, though iirc none of my copies of Doom are old enough to pre-date the random pitch bug. Funny how that's like the second most-loathed setting in Doom source ports after texture filtering, but like 90% of all original retail copies had it.

Use whatever source port you want. I've never cared about ZDoom's lack of vanilla accuracy. When Randy started adding all the cool editing features from Hexen I switched over to it as my source port of choice from Doom Legacy. I've stuck with it and in turn GZDoom because it's what I'm most familiar with.
 
I recently had procured Eternal, after 2016 I was super stoked. Fuck that I deleted it after 8 hrs of jumping around and getting to sometime kill some demons. It sucks because I was really into the lore but the whole thing was awful, why am I the doom slayer swinging around like a nigger in the jungle? The music felt like a ripoff of 2016. Anyway I might try to play some of the WADs listed in this thread might be a fun way to get some new Doom in my life. I wish all these retards would stop fucking with cool shit. couldn't believe when I found the Doomworld forum. How???? How could such a badass game have such a gay fandom ?

Deranged troons and SJWs implement the "no fun & constructive criticism allowed" rule in every fandom they infest themselves in. Look at the current state of Doomer Boards, the forum itself became another Doomworld after years of housing people who got kicked out of the latter all because the mods themselves are incompetent, drama-chasers.

In some ways, currently Doomer Boards is actually worse than Troonworld, because it houses and protects autistic weirdos like Doomguy999, and that Legendary Metal Games cringelord, both shitting up the forum pretty heavily with their cancerous spam. At least on Troonworld you're allowed to mock such nobodies, before they get axed eventually. On Doomer Boards, anything you say about them gets your posts deleted. You know you're in a boring forum when you're not allowed to roast the lowest of the low, the ones who never learn and think the community revolves around them. Kiwi Farms and the Time of Doom forums are the places to be.
 
I don't know what happened to him. I'm honestly surprised how retarded he's become... i guess he always was, and i just didn't see it. Weirdly enough, his change of character corresponds with Kontra's appointment as DB moderator, so he's just being a shill for his buddy ruining the forum. I don't remember seeing him posting like an average DW troon, when 40iq was the only admin. Coming on Time of Doom to cry about it was a mistake. He embarrassed himself beyond repair.

I guess when you associate yourself with social weirdos for far too long, you get to catch their brain rot disease as well. No one has defended him so far and even normies can see why after that pity-party act.
 
Have they put the DBPs on hiatus or something, I can't see any upcoming ones when I login now. I haven't even played one since DBP69 since it seemed like joe-ilya was making half the maps for each project.
 
It's a hiatus for the moment, but If you ask me, it is the first step towards the death of the projects. 40iq returning in 2023 and rushing out subpar slop, combined with the Doomworld ban has shrinked the player base of the projects significantly. But 40iq is the main problem. He created the projects and he'll be the agent of their destruction. Most of the former DBP mappers are gone because of him. Even if you ignore his leftist cuck takes, simply mapping for him is very unrewarding experience. He always demands from mappers to butcher their levels because he finds anything beyond e1m1 too difficult. He picks and chooses what to playtest, often leaving mappers hanging, and when he dies in a map, he sometimes doesn't give it a second try, because he wants all maps to be so easy, that he can beat them first try, blind. The only reason these projects have survived for so long, is because of people like biz, lunchlunch and Matador... even when they don't lead projects, they provide a great deal of help to all the mappers, with great advice, and playtesting videos and streams. Of course, add the fact that when they lead, the projects are being managed hundred times better, are more fun to map for, and more mappers joint because they won't have to deal with 40iq.

The latest was DBP78 that was released last month with matador as the project head who made 3 maps for that set. Unsurprisingly, 40oz's map (which happens to be the first one) was underwhelming and got a bit slaughter-y near the end.

Not like the other half of the fanbase is any good, they're all fat as fuck powerscalers who suck Doom Guy's dick like it's a birthday gift.
 
Doom community is a severe case of a dysfunctional family. It's just nothing but toxicity and hatred for each other and admittedly, it can be entertaining but also sad that at the very least half of the community can't get a long and just show some love to a game that brought them together by producing shit.

Instead, it's infested with roaches (i.e. pedophiles, groomers, power-abusing jannies...) that produce nothing but a wasteland full of trannies and their allies who have no idea what Doom even is and develop shit just to get ass-pats because they are a nobody outside of that. It's sickening.

You would think that power-tripping jannies would....you know... clean up the community by removing sex obsessed freaks but nope. Those gonna stay for whatever reason.

Thats something I truly loathe about Nu-Doom. As much as I enjoy the power fantasy it provides, its so far removed from what Doom really started out as. And it made combat incredibly a giant fucking blur.

Doomguy is just a badass space marine. But he’s from Aliens, not WH40k. He’s very vulnerable and the gameplay from 1 and 2 leaned into that through its horror elements. Even now, community made wads often lean into those horror elements while power fantasy wads are rare.

This is important for how levels are designed, if Doomguy is just a guy then your goal is to fuck with players. That means well choreographed fights and traps mixed in with resource management. Encounters become infinitely more memorable.

I could go through each level in Eviternity, Alien Vendetta, or Necromantic Thirst and name, in detail, a notable fight or 3. Doubly so for Doom 2.

I cannot do the same for 2016 or Eternal. Their fights are either too easy or just a jungle gym mess that has no structure. It all just blends together because the focus has shifted so much. And the Nu-Doom fans have wanked the Doomslayer so much we’ll probably never get Doomguy again.
 
I don't remember what was the first sign that things were about to get different - was it Randy Heit changing his name first to "Randi" and then "Marisa"? Michael Mancuso changing to "Sarah"? - but all these years later, I'm still floored how unexpected and baffling the takeover was.

If you came to me 12 years ago and told me "there's a particular video game genre that will soon be dominated by transgender people, and left-wing politics in general", I'd have guessed... rhythm games? dating sims? point-and-click adventures? cutesy shoot'em'ups?

Retro first-person-shooters would have been my last guess. In fact, if you suggested that, I'd have laughed in your face. Out of all genres, what would they be looking for here? Doom and its ilk are as apolitical as can be, and if they're political at all, it's the kind of politics associated with manly soldiers shooting literal demons in the face...

...In retrospect, the first trans"wo"man I encountered on the forums was Kate Fox. Who contributed a map to a community project, and later died and had a WAD dedicated to his memory. Back then, I hadn't had the slightest inkling that it was a guy. I took it for granted it was just that one-in-a-million woman who found Doom and demons cute in some way.

Back then, it was the same with me. I thought Kate was a legit woman that just managed to be a knowledge-gifted female modding member of the community dominated by male population.
Now it all makes sense. That modding knowledge 'female' is in fact, a tranny. What a twist.

All I know about Kate is he died in a house fire and he was Jimmy's best pal.

I know only three actual female users in the community:
- Major Arlene (her wads are abysmal, lol. Best thing I've played from her is one level from some vanilla wad years ago, I can't remember the name. Even that was mediocre.)
- Remilia Scarlet (Doom and Quake mapper, I only played Shadows of the Nightmare Realm, a wad which has a plot of Doomguy going schizo and you fight... his inner demons or something)
- Nanka Kurashiki (Wholesome Japanese mapper and artist. Her maps in Japanese Community Project are decent. She puts some gimmicks in them, though which I personally don't like. Lately, she hasn't been paying attention to Doom that much.)
 
point-and-click adventures
Point and click adventure games seem to be the least divisive of any genre of games of yesteryear. ScummVM forums are full of nice discussion and nobody has the ability to really make a full game as the bar for entry is significantly higher than DOOM.

I've always said that DOOM is only so popular amongst trannies and teenagers alike since the bar for entry in the modding community is so low, really any talentless hack can produce a working map. Multiply that several times and all you have are talentless hacks praising each other.

I think the main issue is that the community doesn't control those smaller efforts - lots of people making bad maps isn't that bad if you don't let it be taken as a norm. A few more "My first map!" threads being deleted would've sent a message. Gradually, but still would.
