Legendary game designer John Carmack breaks the mold with ambitious projects like RAGE and more at QuakeCon 2011.
businessinsider writes: "His exit came on Friday, the people said. Carmack, who has been openly critical of Meta's advancements in AR and VR, core to its metaverse ambitions, posted to the company's internal Workplace forum about his decision to leave."
I hope he starts up another new company and can get another new game engine on the market too.
He is like: "Im done with F#@#$%NG nonsense, pff Metaverse da funk I was thinking!!, Im out!! :D"
Yeah he put a smile in his face too in the end.
I hope he goes back to traditional games.
VR gaming is a flop and the Metaverse has (fortunately) completely failed to take off.
One of if not, the best game engine developer in the world. I hope he gets back into developing game engines.
They need to stick VR back in RnD departments everywhere that or let the porn industry lead the way like everything else that's been introduced then brought to mass market after porn made it a thing lmfao
Legendary developer John Carmack reacted to the acquisition of Bethesda and ID Software's parent company ZeniMax Media by Microsoft:
"Great! I think Microsoft has been a good parent company for gaming IPs, and they don’t have a grudge against me, so maybe I will be able to re engage with some of my old titles."
This is so annoying that this much welcomed news comes AFTER Facebook deleted their VR for everyone not gullible enough to give away their whole privacy for pennies.
I would be so happy if this news happened a few months ago. Now I couldn't care less.

If you've got time in your life for a new gaming experience, the following bargain basement titles are available for your cut-price purchasing between 4th-10th August 2020."
Without a sip of water he talked for 1 1/2 hours. He's really the king of game engines and 3d graphics

That guys a legend - Just listening to him you get the idea hes is a true pioneer
Carmack da man!!! (In a good way)
I watched this last night. He made some telling comments about developing cross platform on the PC, Xbox 360 and PS3.
Even he found it challenging to develop on the PS3, due to memory limitations. With that said, this is testament to PS3 first party developers that make awesome games like Uncharted, God of War, GT5, MGS, Infamous etc. etc.
Even with memory limitations and the challenge of the CELL, they achieve quality titles that look better than 360 exclusives (I know i'll get flamed for this... but this true).
Back to topic.
Carmack is a genious and i've pre-ordered Rage on Steam, PS3 and a hard copy from Amazon. Judging from the trailers and gameplay - this is going to be an awesome FPS with lots of variety.
