Damn, and I was about to shout at you for being off topic in an action
games group when you're talking about how WoTC created a second "Sigil"
project and killed it even faster.
 "More doom for WoTC"
 

What a debacle that was. It wasn't just that you were trying to pitch a product to people who aren't necessarily gamers but does require a fairly good PC or that from what I've read it wasn't exactly polished. The standout for me though, the rumour is that the C-execs didn't realise what a VTT was and thought this was the next BG:III.

In the meantime, I d/led it and will figure out how to make it run in
GZDoom in my spare time. Thank you!
 

I understand why people can get excited by all things Doom due to the position it has in PC gaming history but the problem I have, I never played it so I don't have that nostalgia hit which I believe is a big part of its appeal.
