"During a meeting I explained to John that I was working on the end-game cinematics with Kage . I pronounced it 'Cage.' Romero giggled. 'Who? What? What are you working on?' I said it again. Now everyone was laughing at me. Romero: 'Who? Say it again!' Me: 'Um ... Kage?' Romero: 'No, dude! It's pronounced Kah-gee!' Me: 'Um ... well, you better check the voiceover recordings, because it's 'Cage.' And suddenly Romero's face turned white. Half the audio in the game had his name pronounced wrong, and it was too late to fix." - Matthew Cox, senior artist on Daikatana
Well, Ka-gae DOES mean "shadow" in Japanese...
cool story, Bro
@@terminallygray lol for once true
Look it's dstecks the loser
They did fix it though. His name is pronounced correctly throughout.
Romero has said several times that Daikatana was basically his life's lesson in humility. So I like to think that there's a timeline where Daikatana was successful, but as a result Romero became part of the Hall of Gaming Corporate Pricks, right there with the likes of Randy Pitchford, Todd Howard and Chris Roberts.
I'm glad though we're in this timeline
Romero, Carmack, GabeN, and the whole of RWS might save us
And Peter Molyneaux.

His face was a priceless mix of disgust and humor.

He made a face, gave me a side eye, then smiled and laughed and his biggest question was "How and why the fuck do you still have this box?"

Can’t play without our buddy Superfly.
Honestly, I feel like the AI issues could be fixed to a suitable level by just.. making them teleport behind you periodically.
Jokes aside it's rather touching that he sees him as being so important considering most shooter MCs are rather crass and self centered

Bobo “BADASS! These unsubscribers are cruisin’ for a SMACKDOWN!”
The fact that Superfly just starts sobbing uncontrollably when you die is fucking hilarious
It's got some serious Finn/Poe energy where they become friends _really fast._
I like to think Romero had them as the best of friends in his head not realizing that it wouldnt translate in game.
They were homies, man. Tight as fuck. The closest of brow. El compachos
Has the same energy as Ashley in RE4R shrieking "Leon, NOOOOOO!" when he takes a hit like 30 seconds after they've met.
Historians will say they were roommates.
"Superfly spoke up against all this torturing and imprisonment, So they tortured and imprisoned him. I don't know what he expected"
This is the kind of humor i dig so much
This is how brutal dictatorships keep going in real life, I imagine. Sure, most people don't want to see torture and wrongful imprisonment... but they also don't want themselves or their loved ones wrongfully imprisoned and tortured. Especially with no guarantee that their suffering will serve as anything but a deterrent to anyone else thinking of speaking up. Of course, if everyone speaks up at once, it's a different thing, but intimidation is a potent force when you're staring it down.
Still a crappy way to get people to accept you as leader, though!

What the hell is even this comment section.
The best part about Daikatana - the release date:
Daikatana: 2000
Half Life: 1998
unreal was a thing before daikatana.
and it was more unreal than unreal was.
And Deus Ex released the same year.
Deus Ex: 2000
System Shock 2: 1999
Even Kingpin, which was clearly release in a pretty ruff, raw and unbalanced state that same year, had better AI companion, who will follow you through ledges, platforms and perform actions through yes/no commands.
Let that sink in for a while.

“John Romero appears to be a pretty cool guy these days from what I can gather.” ... dude he’s responded to ALL of my fan emails to him. Even the vodka fueled way-too-drunk ones. And his WIFE has replied to me twice on twitter. Romero is a VERY cool guy... possibly the coolest. He’s humble- and he always talked shop with me over game design aspects. He’s.... Really nice.
One tends to imagine this was the game that taught him that humility. Whether it was or not though, it's nice to know that sometimes you SHOULD meet your heroes.
ReloadPsi my thoughts exactly when it comes to the last line. You just have to remember they’re people too. Most freak out over their “heroes” and dehumanize em. And yeah- some people are just douchers. I’m very happy to say that’s not the case with Romero.
Manek Iridius that’s awesome, dude! Heard he was VERY good at deathmatch, etc. Do you remember anything of that experience?
Wait, does he freely give out his email though?
Jon Bourgoin ...He has an e-mail attached to his WADS and other things. Additionally, anything you want to know is generally a google search away. The selfish side of me doesn’t wanna have him be overloaded with bullshit emails though... he is in an interesting position to reply to people likely BECAUSE he isn’t inundated with a TON of emails compared to others.

When the Half-Life 2 beta was leaked in 2003, it leaked with a lot of other content that was never meant to be released at all. One of these was a collection of maps that took the form of a retexture or remake of the hazard course from the original, with beta Alyx Vance in place of the hologram. It remains mostly faithful to the original until the player passes the crouch jump tutorial, when they are stopped from proceeding by Barney Calhoun who says something along the lines of:
"Sorry sir but I can't let you through without your buddy Superfly Johnson... Just kidding Gordon, you can go on through."
This is followed by extremely nerdy laughter.

3:31 "Tom Hall went on to start his game: Anachronox, and Romero started his: Daikatana."
And silently off to the side, the New Testament was being written by Warren Spector: Deus Ex.
Warren Spector, just casually about to make the best video game ever
@@DStecks Woah, wasn't expecting you here
I like how in every picture of John Romero Civvie used for b-roll, Warren is sorta just there in the background like he’s the Mike Wazowski of Ion Storm, because that’s sorta just how it happened, Deus Ex turned out the way it did because the team at Ion Storm Austin was away from the drama that came along with Daikatana. I think a convincing argument can be made that Daikatana crashed and burned so Deus Ex could become one of the greatest games of all time
Wait, Storm over Gift 3 was happening too.
Warren Spector was already an industry veteran at that time...with much, much better work ethic and discipline...and it shows.
I’m glad John Romero was able to move past his failure and learn form his mistakes. He very easily could’ve went the A-hole route and blamed it on something and became bitter, but he didn’t, instead he moved on and became humble.
There are two paths forward from failure.
The path of John Romero, where you reflect on the circumstance, accept it, and learn from it.
or
The path of Randy Pitchford...
This is the most convoluted episode of Samurai Jack, possibly ever.

In an alternate timeline, this game was actually phenomenal, and sold extremely well, setting the stage for game designers to act like rock stars, rather than becoming more and more corporate with each passing year.
In this timeline, Romero went into politics after he eventually retired from game development. He would go on to be elected the Governor of Texas.
@@LonelySpaceDetective I envy that parallel universe
@@LonelySpaceDetective as Reform party, becoems Vice President to Jesse Ventura. America truly becomes great again.
I do actually feel like there's an alternate timeline where Romero doesn't change game engines so Daikatana is completed in 1998, and it still fails but not as spectacularly, so he creates a much better game in 2000 which also saves Anachronox from obscurity, allowing Warren Spector to make a different, less dumb sequel to Deus Ex.
And there's that timeline where the dumb hammer ruined the game it was designed for in the first place... praise the gods of rocket jumping for the Quake we know and love

The two John's really needed each other, didn't they?
Carmack can program like Isaac Newton, but is about as exciting as a kipper.
And Romero can craft levels like MC Escher, but couldn't program a cup of coffee.
Make up already guys!
Romero was actually a pretty good programmer by the accounts seen in Masters of Doom. Not superstar level by any means, but he could pull his weight if he could get his head out of his ass.
EDIT: I'd actually attribute for instance most of the actual gameplay/game design-concerning code in the DOS DOOM games to him, since it sounded like Carmack was mostly concerned with the graphics rendering and technology.
Over the years I've actually come to suspect that Carmack was responsible for a lot more of the design of Doom than he ever took credit for. A lot of Tom Hall and John Romero's ideas for Doom that Carmack shot down as "not doable with the tech" would later be done in the Doom engine in games like Hexen and Strife. My conspiracy theory is that Carmack essentially used his position as head programmer as a veto on design choices he personally didn't like.
Nailed it
@@LonelySpaceDetectiveRomero lost to Carmack in a programming contest, but was a very good programmer.
@@dawidvanstraaten Losing to Carmack at programming is like losing to Mike Tyson at boxing
You know I like to imagine there's another timeline where the programming for Daikatana was ironed out so that the AI didn't huff glue and the weapons were balanced better, and in that timeline Daikatana is remembered more fondly as the giant piece of cheese it otherwise is.
Unfortunately, someone took the Daikatana itself and gave us the timeline we have now.
As Yahtzee once said. Either John Romero would be remembered as the great artist of the gaming genre, spearheading a revolution in the story's you tell trough the game medium. Or he'll become such a big boob that even the most determined babies can't get their mouths around it. It all hinged ON daikatana not suckin.
@@imranicanovic1154 You could argue he already became a boob when he let the success of Doom inflate his ego to celestial proportions. Daikatana itself was basically his own personal ego trip.
Just imagine the GBC version of Daikatana as an Octrine of Time type game but also an FPS with Gears style of AI companions. That's how it should have been...
Isn't there an unofficial community patch that fixes all this though?
@@xFluing It "fixes" the problem by turning companions off. He said at the very beginning of the video that he was using the community patch.
As for Romero being a cool guy, he definitely is. Back when he had a public email address, he always answered my questions. He confirmed my suspicion that the "Star-tan" walls were actually named after Star Wars and even shared some reference images, and he also revealed who wrote the intermission texts in Doom 1 and 2; Sandy Petersen.
Always seemed like a chill guy to me this was cool to read
Romero was a chill guy. He was just too much of a perfectionist with his baby (Daikatana) and kept switching engines... And had his issues with Carmack which led to a bad time when it came to development. Plus he didn't come up with the "John Romero will make you his bitch" line... It was actually some chick from advertising that insisted it'd be a great idea.
Dudes a good guy. A little bit of his own enemy, but a good guy
@@sketchstevens5859 I thought it was some dude who came up with that line but yeah, Romero himself wasn't happy with it at all when that advertising guy told him about it
@@nikjuttun5677 Yeah, it was some lady in advertising or some dude in advertising. They basically pressured him into agreeing to it which is kinda weird. Must have been some sort of contract BS

It's amazing that just showing unedited clips of the game works pretty well as comedy
Every time I see this video and hear the line "We can avoid the electric floor. Mikiko will not avoid the electric floor by herself. Superfly didn't come in with us because he's a goddamn moron," I am forced to laugh and wheeze uncontrollably.

Damn you right
Romero totally had unbridled talent, but in order for it to shine through needed a lot of help around his edges. He has a lot of potentional, but absolutely needs a solid team to work with him and the problem is this game just didnt have anything besides Romero. Compound that with his growing ego and a lack of bounce back due to his status he lost himself.
Also, anyone else feel bad for how tiny cerberus was?
I legit thought Hiro was going to be battling a humongous hell dog the size of a two story house, I honestly felt robbed seeing that Cerberus was size of a dollhouse.
No I do not have any empathy for this "game ?" It was typical rubbish that polluted the stores in the 90's. goodbye and good riddance !!
Romero is definitely at his creative best when he's not in charge.
Some people are born to do, others to lead. It's actually quite rare the best "doers" also happen to be great leaders. Unfortunately, our society often promotes great doers into leadership roles, regardless of their ability or personality being conducive to leading.

46:34 I had this exact same reaction to Claire’s “woah...this is reeeeally creepy” line in the sewers of RE2 Remake after she spent hours navigating dank corridors trying to escape a police station overrun with Zombies and lickers while being chased by a hulking humanoid creature in a trench coat with Jason Vorhees level teleportation and other strange creatures....after all that....these sewers are creepy🤦🏿♂️.
27:50 drachma is the currency the ancient Greeks used. Charon (it’s pronounced sha-Ron) is the ferryman for the river Styx in Greek mythology, the dead need to pay Charon 2 drachma in order to pass the river Styx to the underworld. If someone is not buried with 2 drachma they cannot pass into the afterlife with Charon.

"Drachma balls across your face" - Karen, the boatman
I don't quite remeber that scene playing out like that in Percy Jackson
Not sure if you're memeing, but it's spelt Charon, who is the ferryman of Hades.
Yeah I'm also not sure if the guy making the ligma-style joke is memeing

@@BusinessZeus “Died as he lived”
“Getting dabbed upon”
Jesus Christ, that first act is as if John Romero looked up sensory overload and actively tried to incorporate it into the act. Nothing says immersion like audible death!
Came here to say "who's here in 2020" but then saw that the video was released in 2020 and that's how long 2020 has been.
"Bill gates, at the time the richest man in the world"
The fact this even is now a reference makes me feel old
@Bat Bat Those test tube babies can suck the batchall.
Depressing to think that the richest man in the world today got his money by selling out a whole lot of stuff out of warehouses while treating the employees like shit.
@@Crowley9 Not much different than any other plutocrat, really.
I love how Hiro and Superfly seem to see each other as BFFs basically from the moment they meet. It'd be a nice and humourous touch in a game that wasn't an affront to the genre.
It was like if Sonic and Mario met. Just instant vibing on two different levels.
@@ZigealFaust Mario and sonic at the Olympics is a thing you know. It's a minigame series, and I recall it has a story mode.
@@Jambonneau826 Dude I know but like... why the fuck do you think that means anything, no cap?
That's like someone making a Batman meets The Flash joke and you just coming out the woodwork to be like 'AKSHULLY".
I cannot overstate how great the editing is in your videos and how it feels like Katy is a fully developed character despite her not having an active voice most of the time. This channel would not be the same without her.
30:50 "Mikiko, NO!!!!"
That's it... that's the game. Also I actually love the completely deliberate, hair-brained but applicable shotgun jump without splash damage though it eats through the shells.
The shotgun is a decent idea, but man the way it shoots so many times is just stupid
@@drakep.5857 @drakep.5857 a shotgun's basic task is to terminate with extreme prejudice at close range using one or both barrels. But Romero being the absolute legendary madman instead, chose this. A belt fed shotgun with a kick to launch you into the troposphere. Romero is trolling us as he always does by making us waste all the ammo for the ol' reliable.
@@thilinasandanayake2902 Personally there should probably be a happy medium
Maybe one can fire it single barrel or fire all or rest of the belt before reloading
“These games are getting VERY realistic”- Bill Gates
They were
At the time, it was.
Fuck that NWO BASTARD!!!
Back then everything looked like DOOM, the God just upgrades the graphics.
ACKTSHUALY, he said "REALLY realistic."
I only bring up this extremely pedantic point because I initially found it jarring that he would say 'real' twice in a row like that, when 'very' would have flowed a million times better
"You'll get whats coming to you."
Me: That sounds uh...
*Betrayal Clock appears*
Yeah I figured.
It's one of those moments when you can see where it's going, but the added gag just twists it further to the funny over the topness.
The Betrayal Countdown was consistently the funniest thing in this video for me, no idea why.
Superfly even said he wanted his CUT. which is a pun on being stabbed to death
That "Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?" reference was pure fire.
You remember Rockappela vs. Color Me Badd in star search?
Civvie's descriptions of John Carmack will never not be funny
I’m impressed you were able to digitally remove the evil purple glow that appears whenever someone takes a picture of Tom Hall
"No way, I can't leave without my buddy Superfly"
"I mean he so JIVE, MAN!"
"Chill dude, I'm coming!"

My blood pressure spikes every time these sidekicks are MIA.
40:30 is the most wonderful scene I ever saw.
In the unpatched version I remember running into a door (or was it an elevator?) that didn’t work in one of the last levels. The devs posted a save file in their forums that bypassed that section.
That's epic haha

I just want to give my endless appreciation for your use of the Pentagon Wars theme during the explanation of Daikatana's development.
Class.
love that the macguffin in this game is just called "big sword"
Poor civvie torturing himself to entertain us
Implying he has any choice in the dungeon
as any self respecting content creator should.
OMG, I still remember the day when I bought the game in a big box and soon realised that it was a big box full of shite and utter disappointment :D I think I completed this boring game with cheats finally :) What a disaster and the most over hyped game ever.

I feel like Miyazaki played the first level and went “I can make a better poison swamp”
Oh man, I had this game as a little kid. My father played it while I watched. I remember it was super fun for me - gore, gibs, lasers, monsters, guns, etc.
Now I'm afraid my father didn't enjoy it quite like me...
"This graveyard looks haunted, man."
"You're not superstitious, are you? By the way, these staves reek of evil".
okay
Obviously, their nature is different. Superstition would still exist.
Never heard of sarcasm?
"Hiro Miyamoto failed at life."
You and me both, pal.
The ending touched me deeply and appropriately.
