      It is shocking the longevity this game has. Still has a thriving competitive scene. Still getting expansions and patches. It’s a fantastic game.

      I was about to say, “what do you mean ‘old days’, I’m still playing!”

      This game will outlive DOOM being run on things.

      Or more likely, someone will figure out a way to play one in the other.

        Oh man I bet you can get doom running in the scenario editor. The new devs may even be willing to enhance it somehow so that you could.
        Although I have not really played or watched competitive since The Viper left for Facebook.

        Not only that, it’s still active, including a competetive scene with regular livestreams and tournaments.

          I did come across the competitive scene there about 2 years ago. Honestly I found it both fascinating and a bit disheartening. There was I happy with my occasional dad game where I was regularly beating the AI on one of the higher levels. Nope. Apparently still a noob after 25 years.

          The speed and accuracy that they move and build at is astounding.

            The new AI is astounding. I haven’t played in a while but I never was able to beat the harder difficulties. Even at my sweatiest

              I guess this is not because of how good the “AI” is, but because it automatically gets note resources than any human player.
