Damn.

Today I met John Romero, the legendary creator of Doom and Quake, at the bookstore Chapters in Dublin!

Specifically, the plan is to read #JohnRomero's #DoomGuy. I don't think I've read an biography (auto or otherwise) since 2007, when I'd received one as a gift.

After finishing it I went ahead and played through the original #Doom. 30y on it's still tons of fun and provides loads of goosebump moments :-)

He also takes pride in the team he assembled at the time, pointing to the eventual writers of God of War, and a programmer who went on to help repair Healthcare.gov after its horrible launch. .... Wait, what?

Imagine no one around you gets it—not your family, not your partner, not your friends. Not really. Imagine meeting someone else just like you for the first time. That's what it felt like when we met each other.”
Reading John Romero’s #doomguy and enjoying every moment of it. So many feelings and experiences I can relate to!

Imagine having a business meeting with Richard Garriott, a hero of Romero's when they were younger, and asking him to sign an Ultima shirt... Only for Garriott to pull out a Doom shirt and ask you to sign it. What an insane life.

I've been waiting months for this! I want to share my excitement and appreciation for this signed copy of Doom Guy: Life in First Person by John Romero.
I'm sure many of you are excited as well. Stoked to start it this weekend.

I was invited to Gamelab Tenerife to a talk about culture in videogames, because of our last game being inspired by #Nosferatu and characters that actually lived in La Laguna, a World Heritage Site. Great event! You could play indie games, meet professionals and attend to lectures by people quite well known like... well, see it for yourself! :D
