20 years from now?

[NiGHTMARE]

I wonder if Doom 1 and 2 will still be played 20 years later.

People still play Pong more than 40 years after it was created, so why not Doom?

[Hellsmith1]

Going to the future what would you find the same in the year 2035?

[Matt]

Oppression, environmental degradation, waste, jihad, the Endarkenment

[NeuralStunner]

You forgot the mutant penguin armies ruling the remnants of a defeated humanity. The day will come, mark my words.

[Minigunner]

Either that or humanity will be held captive by robots.

Actually this month is Zdooms 12th anniversary.

From 2003 to 2015? What changed this website & what's going to happen in the next 20 year's?

Happy 12th Anniversary Zdoom!

[leileilol]

Zdoom is a little older than that: try 17 years.



Speaking of anniversaries OA will clock 10 years soon. In 20 years, OA will be 30 years old.

and still unfinished.

Are you the only person working on that now?

[leileilol]

Sadly yes.

There's been no new maps finished for it, all the engine improvements I had to do myself (widescreen, flares, detail, eye movements, brightness etc), and the most significant contributions of late from others has been a drive-by concept dump some months ago. Which helped a lot on the weapon side (Railgun and Gauntlet are looking nice now!), though not so much on the character side since a lot of it is too lewd for a competitive videogame, kind of going against OA3's less-skimpy plans (my angelyss concept wears much more than a microbikini)*

also i'm the only animator, and character animation realllllly sucks. Animation right now is the biggest bottleneck of production, and for that reason i'm gonna share a skeleton/animation set with many characters which may cost the variance of body types. Also it takes a while for me to get a concept I finally like down, have to iterate over months since I don't really get useful opinions/criticism about them as the players already only care about their crappy old glowbrightcolor doomguyexpy game
sometimes I have to adjust proportions on like the last minute after the animations are seen ingame which is quite annoying. Perspective and unforeseen rigging errors screw things up a lot. Sorceress was a victim to this a lot having to try to strike that darksexyevilwoman look inspired by Rose, Ihadurca, Morrigan, Naga The Serpent, etc. even the proportions of her hands changed a lot. she looks ridiculous with small AND large hands.

*-still gonna do the succubus concept as a _lewd character which will only appear if the player knows the proper cvar setting to unlock her.

For this topic i would like to see how smart you know about your cars?

For this question want nobody going to no website to look up the answers?

Question: 1
Can you tell me? How many generation corvettes did they make from 1953 to 2015?

[Oberron]

I could possibly have: A great house, a decent car and some other stuff.

[Jaxxoon R]

20 years is a long time.

Call me a pessimist but I don't really see a living world in twenty years... Considering how bad it is right now and how exponentially worse it gets.

Too true. I see humanity ending in less than a solid 30, with extreme war and violence fully spread around the 20 mark.

Even with that thought in my head, though... I still can't push myself to make a finished game...

Boy you're all SO pessimistic. Do you seriously believe that the world as it is today will be over in 20 years ? I mean sure, it'll certainly have changed, and maybe not for the worst mind you, but in 20 years it will most likely be approximately the same as it is today. Don't be so grimm
It'll have solar pannels and wind turbines, no cars left (hopefully), better internet connexions, maybe even internet will have been replaced with a new sort of network, even better than the internet. That sort of stuff
That's what I like to think/hope anyway. I know it's ultra-rose-tinted but I can't possibly imagine humanity as a whole disappearing in the near future. This is possible only in movies. Even with three consecutives global nuclear wars humanity would still exist.
