    You could argue that Doom was always more fantasy focused than sci if, but it doesn’t really matter. Doom doesn’t need to be about the same thing forever. They already had some fantasy/medieval vibes with enemies like marauders, those awesome swords, and some of the visual designs of the areas. I think they saw that it worked and decided to expand on it.

    IMO, it probably always needs to be about high-octane demon killing. If it stays true to that, it can still be called Doom.










  • I don’t doubt Signal per se, but I am surprised that government officials would use it to discuss military plans. I would have thought the government would use something developed by the military just to be sure that it’s safe.

    Sure, they can vet the source code, but it seems more straightforward for the government to develop their own solution than create a team to vet the security of something that they didn’t write. Maybe it’s overkill, but I’d almost think they should be doing this on vetted hardware as well. Signal is also relatively new, and they had to have a way to discuss these things beforehand.

    I remember downloading it a few years back to do some basic image editing and drawing. I think I wanted to make a simple diagram for a lab paper. I didn’t get very far though and ended up using an alternative program. It may not be objectively terrible. but the first time user experience leaves a lot to be desired.
