This moment hit me hard

I’m so sorry for everyone at id Software affected by these layoffs.

I know what it feels like to leave id while id goes on. It’s a strange and painful thing to step away from a place that holds so much of your work, friendships and history.

The people at id have done a great job moving that legacy forward. DOOM, Quake, and Wolfenstein are not easy names to carry on, especially in today’s industry. The last few games showed real care, skill and respect for what those worlds mean to people.

A note on digital preservation: id's history is critically important to the history of games. I’ve preserved id’s complete early history from our start at Softdisk through to August 6, 1996, including materials and assets that, as far as I know, id itself no longer has. I hope someone is doing the same for the company’s ongoing legacy (the work, code, assets, stories and the people behind them).

I’m thinking of everyone at id today, and everyone else affected by yesterday’s layoffs. Romero Games was there a year ago. I know how devastating it is, and my heart's with all of you.

Microsoft will fire 95 developers at Id Software but won't investigate the rampant cronyism, favoritism, and abusive business practices as Halo Studios. '

Here's a mall thread to explain how stupid this is. 🧵

I'm heartbroken to hear about the Microsoft layoffs that have hit id Software. This triology of Doom has been incredible and wouldn't have been possible without these talented people. If you need some incredibly talented folks on your team, I have linked who I can so far below...

The best dog, she will be missed. Never really had a pet follow me around 24/7 like that before, seems weird now, like i’m missing my shadow. Until the very end, she was always really happy. But one morning that was it. She passed away in my arms. Rest easy, Juno

The "my PC outperforms the Steam Machine" living room:

[Crylo 🔜 FURRYDELPHIA @thatgreenracc]

"A prebuilt is better!"

The Steam Machine is the size of a tissue box, near silent, uses only 140W of power, will be easily repairable, isn't limited to SteamOS and can never be rendered inoperable by a ban or shutdown, and has far cheaper games through Steam.

And just works.

After watching Counter-Strike consistently for the first time this year I now understand why it’s the best Esport of all time. There really is levels to this.

[CS2 @CounterStrike]

The best players in the world.
The best crowds in the world.
The best talent in the world.
The best events in the world.
The best game in the world.

Thank you all for making Counter-Strike so special.

SunPayus isn't just an AWPer. He is a full-time photographer. Every round he buys his $4750 AWP like it's a brand new DSLR and scopes in to adjust the lens. The enemy walks away unharmed, but at least the composition was just right.

adjusts lens zoom...focus...zoom...focus...

Meanwhile his teammates are fighting for their lives and SunPayus is saying, "hold on guys, the lighting on B site is perfect."

Enemy peeks? CLICK. Nice photo. Smoke fades? CLICK. Great composition. Teammate dies? CLICK. Cinematic storytelling.

His teammates scream "SHOOT HIM!", but SunPayus gives important comms like that the "depth of field isn't right."

SunPayus's HLTV stats after a match: Rating = 0.82. Kills = 4. Deaths = 19. Photos taken = 56!

SunPayus isn't missing his shots, he is adjusting the focus. SunPayus didn't forget to shoot, he is just waiting to take the perfect picture.
