How come the video game industry treats it's old like complete shit?
Pic related. John Romero, head designer of legendary games Doom and Quake, is being forgotten working on a gas station for minimal wage.
>>333167957
Serves him right for making everyone his bitch.
>>333167957
what kind of weird fetish is that
>>333168040
Those were dark times. Now he's my bitch. I don't even tip him after he's done pumping my gas.
It's a labor of love for him OP. Just because you hate your job flipping burgers doesn't mean a widely known former game designer can't enjoy hid minimum wage job.

>thank you for using moe's, that will be 29.99 plus tip
>>333167957
hes actually working on a new fps which he will announce soon apparently
daikatana got a new unofficial patch too
it's really not that bad if you disable the buggy partners
>>333167957
Seems like this guy could get a couple million from kickstarter off of name recognition alone.
>>333167957
>working on a gas station for minimal wage.
I love this meme.
That's quite literally his collection of gas station memorablia.
That's apparently an actual thing.
So well memed son, keep repeating that shitty myth.
>>333169439
>this could never happen to one of the industry's greats! it must be a myth!
>>333169439
It's a joke. Everyone's in on it.
You're the autist.
>>333168116
>tipping somebody to do their job when they are already getting paid to do so
>>333169637
>still memeing
>posting cropped porn
Yep you are a fucking imbecile.
THAT'S LITERALLY HIS FUCKING COLLECTION
HE LITERALLY TALKED ABOUT IT MULTIPLE TIMES
AND YOU RETARDS STILL KEEP MEMEING AND SPERGING
EAT SHIT AND DIE
>>333167957
what a shame
I wish you a live a life of leisure, john!
>>333169735
You're the one who's sperging here. Listen, we all can fall down to a minimum wage job, that's just how life is. No reason to insult Romero any further.
>>333169735
>HE LITERALLY TALKED ABOUT IT MULTIPLE TIMES
well yeah, it's not unusual for people to talk about their jobs
>>333169429
He tried to make a kikestarter once. It failed spectacularly. It was a really shitty KS though, he basically had no concrete plan, just a vague "gib money plox".
>>333169952
Do you know any gas stations with the pumps indoors, anon?
>>333168218
>enjoying pumping gas
Is this possible?
>>333170501
yeah, the one in the picture
>>333167957
>moe's
>>333167957
because he made like 2 good games forever ago.
He's the owner of that gas station stupid.
>>333167957
>>333168040
>>333170517
Retards, he doesn't work in a gas station, he's a collector and he buys all that stuff.
>>333171293
Nice try, pretty sure is name is John not Moe.
>>333167957
>...you know, I used to make video games
>>333171086
Wrong pronunciation. You're thinking of もう, which is obviously not derived from 萌える, you fucking anime watching weeaboo that doesn't even know real Japanese. I have a job in Japan working for Honda and people like you that suck Japan's cock, but don't even speak the language make me sick.
>>333171363
*his
>>333171334
Shouldn't you start preparing for your night shift already, John?
>>333171334
This.
Carmack bought a fucking Ferrari with the money he made with Doom, Romero probably just saved it all up.
>>333171493

It's called "justice".

Yeah, I've watched enoughCanadian Pickersto know that he's just collecting this stuff.
>>333171830
At least Iwata is remembered for being involved with a lot of great games. Romero is remembered for Daikatana being a piece of shit and now he pumps gas for a living. I think Romero would rather be dead than a meme.
>>333171856
I wish everyone was as passionate about their job.
So when is this handsome fuck gonna stream?
He made that poll like a month ago.

If it makes you feel better, I correct my coworkers terrible Engrish as well. I'm feeling generous, as a matter of fact, so I'll help you with your poorly constructed romaji.It's actually Gomennasai
>>333171989ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOÒOOOOOOONNNN
>>333172191
>>333167957
That's breddy gud bait Anon, but everyone on /v/ should know that he collects that stuff
>>333172330
I don't even watch anime. Did you know that Japanese is a real language that has more to it than a degenerate subculture that isn't even relevant to 90% of the country?
>romero, carmack and all the other old id devs will never team up and make something great again
I wanna cry
>>333172514
You're right, there's also the porn industry

Fuck off John.
>>333172651
Robin Williams made Doom?
>>333172165
the law allows stores to pay them less than minimum wage because of tips, they rely on tips for income.
>>333167957
>let's embrace ancient Asian seniority bullshit
No, that's how we get people like shift way past his prime and out of touch.
Either adapt or fuck off.
Does neo-/v/ even care about Doom? Knowing the kids that browse this board now, they'd call it edgy pixelshit.
>>333172697
no, they made quake

You think that he knows enough katakana to know that the name is written as モウ?

No, I apparently brainfarted and didn't read properly. Then again I just woke up so whatever.
It IS a foreign name though.

I am 28 and even I was too young to honestly exp. it.
The only thing I remember is we played it at my school in LAN because the PC where s hit and couldn't run anything else.
Shit game and I couldn't ever care about it.
>>333173559
What did you not like about it? Lack of narrative? Lack of reticles?
All memes aside any person receiving exceptional amounts of income isn't immune to becoming poverty-stricken. All the time you see lottery winners blowing their cash on supfluriois wants and end up not being able to pay their rent or mortgage.

There's a reason they call lottery retard tax.
Speaking of lottery and retards, how's hookerbots guy doing these days?
>>333173735
I dont know shitty graphics,controlls and gameplay. I was elementary school when I played doom for the first time in LAN and at that time there where other better looking games out.
so yeah with 28 I was too young to exp. doom when it was popular.

Holy fuck, how old are you? Did you all play Pokemon or something?
>>333175617
not the same guy but I am 28 and in elementary school we usually played outside and at home it was all about Tekken, Mortal Kombat and Super Mario.
The only exp I had with doom was at Computer class in elementary school,the PC where shit and the best game we could play in LAN was doom.But yeah we usually spend time outside playing.
I know I am young so maybe if I was much older I would have exp. doom in its glory but with 28 now I was too young for it, but I remember we had fun on the playstation with Quake 2.

Nice fresh meme you got there, OP, sure I'm enjoying 2008.
