this time for 'disobeying a ZeniMax employee'

Reddit mod energy there

Here's the mod's website.

Faced with the return of one of humanity's greatest threats, you have no choice but to head to THE TENTH CIRCLE OF HELL:

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง THE UNITED KINGDOM OF ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง GREAT BRITAIN AND NORTHERN IRELAND

I think we should put this on the tourist brochures

About that tourism...

On the other hand we Dutch run ads in the THE TENTH CIRCLE OF HELL, begging the Doom spawn coming for some nice debauchery, not to visit Amsterdam. True story.

We do tell people. For example, when you get off the train at Reading station it clearly says "Welcome to Reading".

"Disobeying a ZeniMax employee" being apparently some kind of crime gives me a sudden, near-desperate urge to disobey a ZeniMax employee.

Yeeees...

What's that? I'm not spending any more money on ZeniMax games? And I'm getting a Margaret Thatcher Doom mod?

What a marvelous day it is!

What a WONDERFUL DAY!

"Real world politics"? Did I miss the news that Undead Demon Margaret Thatcher is running in the next UK election?

Can you only use the in-game mod browser or something? Put the mod up somewhere else that Bethesda doesn't control. It's not like it's hard to modify DOOM manually by dropping the files in the folder.

Additionally, extend the mod to include the CEO of ZeniMax as a Baron of Hell or Revenant.

It is, it's the end of the article.

[-] princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 months ago

I believe the place it was banned, was on consoles.

[-] dillekant@slrpnk.net 20 points 3 months ago

Yet another reason PC is superior.

[-] Lonsfor@c.im 17 points 3 months ago

literally 1984

[-] jherazob@beehaw.org 12 points 3 months ago

There should be a crowdfunding to project a giant looping video of this mod in front of their offices for a year

[-] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago

Everytime I see or hear that name, I think of this scene.
