So, I read about this a few days ago elsewhere and was mildly interested simply for the setting and to see how it would play out, but I just read that Mick Gordon wouldn't be doing the music for this game due to the legal issues he had with the past with Marty Stratton (of ID Software) and not having Mick do the music for Doom feels like if Bethesda removed the combat from their next Elder Scrolls game. I'm sure the music will be good as the lead audio designer (Chad Mossholder) did a good job with Eternal but I haven't read enough about Dark Ages to know whether or not Chad will be working on this new iteration. To be honest, this was one hell of a rabbit hole and it has kinda soured me a bit on the Doom franchise as a whole - mainly because I am severely biased against corporate CEOs who are more than happy to screw over the workers if it means they'll see a larger bonus or slightly larger profit margins. Plus Marty didn't seem to care at all that his lies were the direct cause of people sending death threats to Mick Gordon and his family.
For anyone interested in the drama,
Check out ID Software Studio Director's "Open Letter of complete bullshit" to the Reddit community. Everything read there should be taken with a massive grain of salt because that just sets the tone for the next link below.
If you made it to the end of that Reddit post, you definitely need to read
Mick Gordon's full statement in response to the Reddit post above. Also, set aside some time to read through because when he says it's a "full statement", he ain't lying. I consider myself to be a fairly fast reader and it still took me over 30 minutes to read his statement but it's definitely worth the read as a decent insight as to the shady nature of how many of these CEOs, presidents, directors, etc. operate these days.
