Would you rather meet John Romero or Gabe Newell?
Would you rather meet John Romero or Gabe Newell?
Romero because he's still a cool dude and maybe we could make some WADs together and see where things go from there
I've already met Romero, and he's pretty swell.
Romero because all in all he still cares about vidya
Romero seems more fun to talk to. Gabe probably smells funny.
romero because he looks like an alright guy
haven't played doom since I was a toddler and I never used steam or played a valve game in my life so I wouldn't have much to tell them except "hi" though
Gaben. John is satanist, I hate satanists.
Romero because Gabe turned into another faceless suit.
Todd Howard, of course.
Gaben serves the jews who are satanists.
Everyone famous is a satanist by default.
Morrowind was a fluke
>Gaben serves the jews
Gaben IS a jew, retard.
Suspension of disbelief, I apologize
>2 CYBERDEMONS IN EVERY LEVEL
Romero pls ;_;
I'd love to meet Todd. He's such a lovable dork.
I know he's not perfect, and neither is his company...but I'd love to buy him a beer while he brags about the chess club.
Have they ever met before?
Romero lives in Ireland and he went to a con here as a guest last year.
I was standing outside a room in the back of a bar where they were setting up a meet and greet and Lan Doom Deathmatch party with Romero when I got a text from my friend that he got kicked out and was outside alone.
I decided to go hang with my friend outside instead of meet and play DM with Romero. I 100% fucking regret it. Felt like the right thing at the time.
Neither because they're both hacks.
Don't be a bad friend
Your buddy will have your back if you have is, all Romero can give you is AIDS transmitted through gay sex
What would I gain from meeting them?
And what would they gain out of meeting me?
Wanting to meet famous people is fucking pathetic.
I'd rather meet you ;)
Your friend would've understood if he's a true friend and not a fag that got kicked out from a con, what did he even do?
romero
i'd love to play some doom with him
Gabe if he's buying lunch.
Thats true, Todd is a cute boi making his own big boi games
Newell. I'm good at talking people into doing things and I might talk him into letting me make HL3.
You're going to suck his dick, aren't you?
I met John Romero in Belfast last year, so Gabe I guess.
Romero has better stories without a shadow of a doubt. Absolutely Romero, I'd go on a bender with that guy any day of the week over Gabe Snoozewell.
> lunch for two
> neither for you
>Romero has better stories without a shadow of a doubt.
They're all lies.
Yes, and?
None.
Is it the good or bad kind of smell?
He said funny so it must make him smile.
The biggest lie of all is that he's straight.
You should have ditched that autist.
Heh, is that how you in particular get people to do stuff for you? Since you've brought it up, you're probably thinking about these things a lot - if you haven't tried, you should, at least once - to see how effective it is and wether or not the effort is worth the payoff. After all, hypothesizing about it will only stop you from trying.
Either way, I would just subvert him with language until he thinks that it's his idea to put me in charge.
Romero. Maybe Gabe accomplished more but I probably wouldn't like him.
Gabe. He's done way more in his life than wear nail polish and pretend he made Doom.
>Either way, I would just subvert him with language until he thinks that it's his idea to put me in charge.
That's a funny way of saying you're going to suck his dick.
Bad thing that the only thing Gabe understands is his stomach
That sounds like a lot of effort to avoid sucking a dick.
I'd rather hang out with a cool Walmart employee than a dmelly loser trillionaire
>I'm a pleb
Would you hang out with Gabe if he got a job as a Walmart greeter?
Romero:Soulful
Gayben:Souless
You're missing the point. Accomplishments mean nothing if you just want to hang out with someone. So you just pick the more likable person.
So you're picking Romero.
So you'd go with Gabe
Gaben if he's not hungry. I don't want to be eaten.
Did he ever even wear a suit?
Citation needed (seriously, I need a source).
You two should meet up for some netflix & gay sex.
How do I use this to my advantage?
Oh, the duality of man.
>Did he ever even wear a suit?
user... it's not meant literally, he isn't missing his face either
You're the best buddy, man
There's a photo of him wearing a suit to his prom, if I remember right.
Romero. Gaben looks like he fucks black guys.
Romero, he may be a washed up has been now but Gaben is just a lardass businessman who never cared about vidya.
What do you think fat people smell like?
Ham and cheese mixed with sweat and shit.
In my experience, they smell like flowery soap. It's a very dainty kind of smell.
Romero actually made and gave a shit about games to an almost endearing degree. The level of care and attention to detail he put into things like level design is still astonishing. Some of the advice like recursive design and not suffocating the player still holds true today.
Newell is a soulless businessman and a borderline con-artist who an entire generation of Yea Forumsedditors has projected some kind of santa claus image onto because they can't emotionally divest themselves from a tech demo released 15 years ago.
>Fat people smells like flowery soap
Where the fuck do you live? Sounds like some hambeast Narnia bullshit.
Who would win?
Shut up, tim. You're not fooling anyone.
Or they like HL1
They're mostly IT guys or church folk.
>You could have killed Romero in Doom
Can't think of bigger bragging rights than that desu. Ya dun goofed
someone post the "no more hats, fat jew" photo
Gaben, because all things considered, he seems like a bit more of a secretive/reclusive guy. Especially nowadays, you don't really hear much from him anymore. By comparison, Romero is a fairly open guy.
