@eniko please links to all of it. I know for you it's mildly traumatic, but I would loooooooooove some good fun.
My take is the opposite of the hypothetical authors. The fact that I have only like 1.5 games to play — #Undertale and #InvisibleInc, and maybe #DeusEx and #Thief (?!) is the legacy of white cis male fetishist #IdSoftware company and their senseless #DOOM (nb! I love #doomRL, I don't know what's wrong with me. nb! I've completed #DOOM, and I kind of liked it. But it actually contributes to the point).
The logical continuation of this were horrible, misogynistic #DukeNukem and racist #ShadowWarrior (I **loved** #ShadowWarrior as a kid, because I didn't see racism behind the veil of diversity, nor could I understand English enough to "appreciate" main character's "jokes").
Of course, certain people would miss this descent into the circles of hell (no pun intended)!
I want to live in a world where none of this have happened and Carmack was at most a hippie, not a filthy libertarian.
