Romero and Killcreek Vindication

For a long time I've enjoyed the jokes and not cared one single bit about a guy in the gaming industry named John Romero. I developed an opinion that was based off of people who write about the industry and make jokes about it 90% of the time. I don't know exactly what went down with Ion Storm or id or Daikatana. I'll never know because frankly, I don't care. At the time the jokes were funny, so I laughed like everyone else. Well today I stumbled upon an interview with he and Stevie (Killcreek) and my opinion has completely changed. I have a lot of respect for both of them because they put up with a lot of bullshit from a lot of people who are just annoying naysayers. Yes, Daikatana was shit. Romero admits he made mistakes with it. He knows what went down. Now they've moved on and are doing exactly what they want to do in the industry despite that obstacle and they seem to be doing pretty well. Plus they seem pretty nice. I read some other interviews as well and I just had to publicly say that I don't give a shit what everyone else thinks. I like them. So piss off.
