On a serious note...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As a former POW (Vietnam), I hesitated to play WOLF for over a
|
||
|
|
month after downloading as I feared flashbacks. I didn't want to
|
||
|
|
remember all that I had been through all those years ago, when, as
|
||
|
|
POW's, my friend and I decided an escape attempt would be better than
|
||
|
|
a slow death by torture and starvation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
My friend and I made crude maps and hoarded food. The day of the
|
||
|
|
escape we clubbed the guard with stones, took his gun and fought our
|
||
|
|
way through two levels of underground tunnels (only a few guards and
|
||
|
|
had to crawl). I made it, my friend didn't.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Dreams...NO! NIGHTMARES...YES!! However, the more I play
|
||
|
|
WOLF the less frequently I have nightmares. The chilling part is
|
||
|
|
turning a corner and seeing a guard with his gun drawn.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
WOLF is a powerful game. Fearful as well. I believe that a
|
||
|
|
person should face the past. So... when I can play EPISODE 1
|
||
|
|
comfortably (no nightmares), I plan on ordering the full series.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Don't let a few bad dreams make you discard this game.

Jay, just thought I'd drop a note to let you know how popular Wolf3D is
|
||
|
|
here at Microsoft. It seems like I can't walk down a hall without hearing
|
||
|
|
'Mein Leben' from someone's office. I hope you guys are getting revenue
|
||
|
|
from all this.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Anyway, we were sitting around talking the other day, discussing games for
|
||
|
|
Windows, and someone said 'What are those cool guys at Id doing?'. So how
|
||
|
|
about it. Are you guys looking at Win games at all? Win32?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In a perfect world, I'd have you guys port the Wolf engine to a multiuser
|
||
|
|
maze game for Windows for Workgroups. We need a good M'user Win game.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Anyway some thoughts.
