It's a weird take from someone kind of uninformed. The assumption that the company would base the release off of the GPL'd version and not the original source code is odd. Also, the claim that it's Windows only when it's cross platform so....?

The original MS-DOS versions are still directly playable too.

When you launch, you get a prompt from Steam asking if you want to run this new rerelease or the original MS-DOS versions.

It's an upgrade to the DOOM (1993) and DOOM II versions on Steam currently, which usually are only $2-3 each from what I remember.

This is exactly why for everything fediverse, I only run my own.

Is River City Girls 2 any better than the first game, which I thought was okay but seemed a bit unresponsive in terms of control?

Not having a problem with this on my personal instance yet, but I've had to disable DASH because it takes forever to watch anything when it's on these days.

Code is already stored, it's just not public.

An explanation of what SimHub is might be a good idea.

Games back then took 20 people. Now, upwards of 2000 for modern AAA games. It's nowhere near the same.

People also used RHDN as a news source to find out about new hacks and translation releases, and it was the best resource for doing that. And it sounds like it still will be going forward, so... I disagree with you on that.

Your logic works if you assume that we are making games at the same scale and the same way we were 15-20 years ago.
