Outside of SNES Wolfenstein 3D, 90s iD would not have bothered with the butchery and censorship of Doom 2's secret levels for the international release. Let me put it this way, under how I see things. You're kind of misconstruing my point, but that might be my bad for not explaining it clearly enough. Len swann Posts: 3466 Joined: Mon 5:02 pm Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull had the same issue. The passion for the raw tech is there with Carmack, but is it really there in any way for the others? I'm not convinced it is. They'd rather play it safe enough to ensure a profit. They can't be edgy like they used to, or, at least, don't feel like they can. ![]() They're all going through the realms of mid-life and now such thoughts as comfortable retirements as well as descendants seeing their work come to mind. They had no issues with being edgy with Doom, because they could do no wrong.īut times have changed. They had no issues whatsoever with being edgy with Wolfenstein 3D. Something to aspire to do, and all those who got in their way. You had a bunch of twenty-somethings who had no reputation and nothing to lose. The fact that only John Carmack of the old team's left there doesn't help. ![]() I can understand removing the Nazi paraphernalia for Germany, but they couldn't be bothered to replace it with a functional equivalent? We couldn't have re-sprited resources to be a complete replacement of the Nazi stuff without it creating such major issues?Įmerald Dreams Posts: 3376 Joined: Sun 2:52 pm Ī lot of people can miss out on some of the great things the oldschool community's done just because of this bone-headed move.

I'm sorry, I had to register just to respond to this.

I mean you got a zillion Call of Duty games and a number of others depicting Nazis in their glory in North American regions and most of Europe, why not an 18 year old game? Has this even been confirmed by anyone other than the op? even if confirmed, and all of the images of nazi soldiers and crosses on health packs were replaced with other images, so what? i fell in love with the gameplay, not a couple of low res textures but this sort of feels like you're grasping at straws i also understand that willits said they would be untouched, and maybe to his knowledge they were. Look, i understand you all love the originals, i do too.
