This video is a short documentary talking about how idTech developers and how they came together to make their own employee-owned indie studio. Good stuff!

      I know it’s possible to comment on Threadiverse posts from Mastodon, but it seemed easier to make an additional Lemmy account, too.

        I do hope they succeed and I’m more than happy to support them if they put out something to the quality of Witchfire. That said the combined experience of 250 years does have a “9 women can make a baby in 1 month” vibe. Ubisoft probably has 1000+ years of experience and their games are still shit. Naming what they’ve worked on would give far more credibility to their experience.

          The majority of our experience has been working together for Doom 2016, Eternal, and Dark Ages. There are a few of us that had been at id since Rage, and some have shipped games from before joining id, like Crysis, Call of Duty 3, Assassin’s Creed 4, etc.

          Riot Games got laughed at for that previously. It’s such a dumb metric to even mention.
