Interceptor Entertainment had been part of the recent GOGCast on Twitch, where they talked about a spiritual successor of a classic id-Software Game with a certain young man with a helmet. Commander Keen!
Possibilities for new studio/IP pairing have been flying across social media. These are a few ideas I had for which Bethesda studios should tackle some Microsoft IPs, or vice versa, now that Xbox has 23 studios under its exclusivity belt.
"Back in the early '90s, I recall playing plenty of fantastic DOS games between gaming sessions on my NES. So, allow me to describe 5 such games as I remember them from back in the day. Perhaps you've played a few of these as well!" - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums
Rather than craft a nostalgia-driven tribute to the original platformers, Bethesda is instead making a free-to-play Commander Keen mobile game which looks like it will try to capture the same edgy-yet-kid-friendly vibe of games like Fortnite.
The Commander Keen games were great PC platformers, seeing him resurrected as a mobile game was pretty depressing.
I'm just confused about John Romero's initial objections towards ID being acquired by Bethesda.
They pretty much changed everything about one of his pre-ID IP's and made it lose any connection it has to the past.
Sure I understand it's probably a money thing but this could potentially be the start of more IP's going down that lane.
That'd be cool. Great game!
I'm for it. That was an awesome series. I remember playing #4 at a friends house and begging my parents to take me to the now bankrupt "On Que" media store in my middle of nowhere town. Played it for months
