>Be John Romero
>Go from working on a game so popular it was installed on more computers than fucking Windows was to working at a gas station
Has there ever been a bigger fall from grace?

>>381169701
no. and i doubt there ever will be

>>381169468
Just you wait
>>381170723

>>381170862
never. the industry is so much stronger now in terms of investment. if he hasn't bought dumb shit like cars and doesn't have a ridiculous mortgage, there is no way he will fall like romero absolutely no way no matter how badly his next game fails

>>381168992
Looks like he made you his bitch t b h

It's impossible for Kojima to fail as badly as Romero at this point. Kojima has had a great career for decades. Romero worked as a designer on 1 game, bailed, took his money and started up another studio and released a shit game then stopped off the face of the planet for the next decade.

>>381169701
he collects gas station memorabilia and still makes games

did i just get memed on?

>>381171372
then dropped off the face of the planet*

Who's that one dev that goes on about making progress on his dream [game], but all he does is post selfies on himself giving the finger on twitter?

"""Legendary game designer"""" John Romero can't even get his kickstarter backed.
Lmao

shigeru miyamoto is all washed up
