Doom Community Hypocrisies

Brutal Doom sucks because it's unbalanced and relies on tasteless gore and shock value to make up for a lack of game depth.

Modern first-person shooters suck because they're shallow, linear, and only appeal to graphics whores.

Doom was unbalanced, but that's OK because it's retro. Doom relied on tasteless gore and shock value to make up for being shallow, but that's OK because it's retro. Running around mazes collecting keycards to get to the next level is linear, but that's OK because Doom is retro. There were other first-person shooters with better game design at the time, but Doom was better because it had better graphics.

Whoa whoa whoa, back the fucking truck up.
1.
Terry wads aren't the only wads with a large crowd of haters. They may be more widely panned than others, but there's still plenty of hatred directed at other wads.
2.
If someone's put time and effort into making a resource, they have every right to decide what it is and isn't allowed to be used in. Saying resources should be able to be used whether or not the creator approves of your usage of said resource is incredibly self-centered.
3.
There's a fine line between the forced brutality of Brutal Doom and the cheesy excess of Russian Overkill. Not everyone who whines about either mod has a legitimate argument, but both mods have their own fanbases, so nobody's ganging up on either one.
4.
If you seriously care about people getting offended by stuff, you need to learn to ignore them. Society is a flawed construct, and too many people are offended by stupid stuff of no consequence. The less attention you pay to other people being idiots, the less they'll get you down.
Life's too short to be a constant critic, man. Lighten up

But you didn't even address most of the Hypocrisies I put out on this thread. If anything, your response was all over the place.

If I'm supposed to adress your exact statements, then I'll have a go.
1: Bullshit. Very few terry wads have any endearing qualities, except for the really well made ones such as UACMN2, and the classics such as TMOC. So this isn't a hypocrisy, but more to do with preferance.
2: This is to be expected, and is not a hypocrisy.
3: They have logical reasons to like RU more than BD, one of which is the fact that RU is less "realistic" than BD, and to a certain extent retains the doom spirit better than BD. So again, not a hypocrisy.
4: Yup. This one's a hypocrisy.

There we go. Just to clarify, I don't care about any of these things and I certainly don't care about "winning" an argument on the internet, I'm just pointing out the facts.

1. Then explain to me why it's acceptable to like garbage such as Smiley's Face Safari?

2. I already explained my reasoning on this point and will try to once again be more specific. I can give credits for the realm667 resources and people still bitch at me. When others like Scallano use them for example, nobody seem to care, so yes that's still a hypocrisy. People complaining about whether it's not allowed to use certain resources is just childish. They seem to treat this issue like they are copyrighted or something. It's different if you're making off other people's work, then yeah they have a right to complain about it.

3. Oh right, this is coming from the same guy who praises Brutal Doom. One of the complaints about Brutal Doom is that it's unbalanced. Russian Overkill is also unbalanced, but once again nobody complains about it. Instead of trying to counteract this point, you try to use some logical reasoning as to why Brutal Doom is more hated.


Some people on zdoom was always fucked up from the start, some say its shit, some say its cool, Ill try to address some of the points:

1. People hates terry wads because they were made by known terry wad makers and for some reason, people thinks that terry wads are shit. Because of negative publicity, people are hating on terry wads, through id say they are awesome! Peoples accept smiley's face safari because they shrugs it off as if it was a joke/troll wad.

2. Like I said, these terry wads are from known terry wad makers. Its other peoples problems, they might be bitches who likes to troll or doesn't want association with terry wads. People treats it like copyright because they think that its their rights, their properties and treats it as such. GIVE THESE ASSHOLES 0 FUCKS.

3. The main difference in BD and RU is how they satisfy players. These mods satisfies players differently. RU has a HUGE ASS weapons collection, but it doesn't have blood, gore or those shit. Its quite satisfying to shoot enemies with this collection, like you said, its overpowered.But they doesn't treat it as such. But BD satisfies players with blood and gore, new weapons and monsters and those shit. The trailers Sgt mark iv releases makes it look shit and like a mish-mash of bloody gore. Everyone complains about it because of its difficulty. If one was to use it with a wad, it would be quite challenging. That's why people never complained about RU and criticizes BD. I hated it because it was too difficult.
