Doom Deathmatch - decino versus John Romero

  • Опубликовано: 24 апр 2021
  • On April 24th a big deathmatch was hosted on Romero's Discord server. There was a second invite-only server where a small amount of players got the opportunity to duel against John himself.
    There was a lot of chatter going on in the voice channel, so I did my best to isolate John's reactions. That's why he may sound a bit weird or cut off.
    All in all I had a great time and John was very chill with answering everyone's questions. Thanks for the opportunity!
