Idk if you ask me this is not remotely historically accurate, the dress doesn't match contemporary fashions, the weapons are wrong, and I can't believe they're using a Ford Crown Royal to depict a 14th century Veronan taxi.

This episode features people from the moon finding their way to post-post apocalyptic Mexico and sharing some tacos with an adorable child. I fucking love Turn A.

Was a little disappointed that the food selections at the pow wow this year seemed kinda playing things safe and then I passed by this booth.

IT HAPPENED

John Romero (@romero)

Hi Sandy, I hope you’re well. I have appreciated the recent discussions. I do not agree with your framing.

Regarding piracy, DOOM is a complicated example because shareware was the model. DOOM’s first episode was designed to be freely copied, passed around, uploaded, installed, and played. That enormous unpaid audience was not the same thing as piracy. It was part of how DOOM reached the world.

By the mid-90s, DOOM had something like 20 million shareware installs and more than 2 million paid copies sold. Those 20 million people were not “pirates” by default. A huge number of them were playing the free episode exactly as intended.

That doesn’t excuse people pirating the registered game. However, it’s important not to collapse legal shareware distribution, unpaid reach, and actual piracy into one number.

I also don’t think piracy is what “gutted” id - id is still around and still making games. Piracy may have cost money, but it wasn’t the reason Quake was hard or why people eventually went different ways.

So yes: pay developers. Buy the games you love. Support the people who make them.

But history is messier than “pirates killed the companies.” Sometimes the same free distribution that looked like lost sales was also the thing that made the game impossible to ignore.

realizing just now that the lanky reseen warhammer they made before the harmony gold stuff got resolved might be a homage to this version.

WHM-8K Warhammer, differentiated from the classic due to it being weirdly skinny and lanky.

RP's 1984 battledroids sculpts, for reference.

8 battledroids from the 1984 catalogue. There's a wasp and/or stinger, something vaguely valkyrie-ish, a warhammer t-posing. Something with two gun arms, a longbow??? I think the second to last got turned into the Firebee, and of course the Destroid Monster from Macross.

Store got a bunch of old stuff and this was found with some absolutely ancient battletech minis and I'm wondering what the fuck the chassis is even from. I know the gun arm is from a rifleman and the rocket pod is longbow-ish if it wasn't somethi g made for this.

I want to briefly address the discussion as a GOG representative. The Sowilo rune is part of my cultural and historical heritage. As a Pole, I am fully aware of both its history and the sensitivities surrounding it. Its use in this promotion was intended solely as a reference to the sun, which is central to the game being promoted.

What was displayed in several devices as doppelrune is out of our control. ᛋ was displayed as ϟ on several devices. We should pay more attention to checking it on a different systems and devices. I also recognize that placing two such runes next to each other could create an unfortunate association with symbols used by the Nazi regime. This was noticed before distribution, and out of respect for local sensitivities, the material was not sent to the German community.

At the same time, I do not believe that symbols with a history spanning more than a thousand years should be defined solely by their misuse in the modern history. Allowing that would mean accepting that those who corrupted these symbols now own their meaning.

As a Pole, I have every reason to treat this history with seriousness and respect. Precisely because of that, I reject any suggestion that this promotion carried an extremist message. It did not. It was a reference to the historical symbol of the sun, nothing more."

The Pancake Rat@derwafflemous· Jun 5

Thing is, as to my knowledge, koppa is not something used as a symbol for the sun like the other symbols. Sowilo, the basis for the SS rune, however, is literally the "Sol" rune. also, *why are there two of 'em?*
