This is a very poorly written article. Some examples of the multiple things leap out at me as bad style: > John Romero on his book Doom Guy and developing games at a small scale The title is styled in block caps. So in fact it says JOHN ROMERO ON HIS BOOK DOOM GUY What is a "book doom guy" and how can Romero own one? Sloppy. > Posted On September 25, 2023 By zukalous And yet, "CZ" is used as the interviewer shorthand. So how are we supposed to know who C.Z. is? That's both sloppy and deceitful, as the author is trying to hide behind a poor pseudonym. Grow up. > I think the biggest reason so many indie games “fail” Quotation marks are not emphasis. This is a #fail. > it occurred to me that at the start, he and the founders Comma splice. Very poor English. > My meeting John Romero at GDC 2022 "My meeting $PERSON"? That's both bad style and broken grammar. "My meeting with $P" would be better. "I met $P" would be better still. "The author and $P" would be better than that. Almost anything would be better, in fact. Eugh. > CZ: How did you scope it? "Scope" is not a verb. Arguably, "scope out" is a phrasal verb, but the author -- I use the word very loosely -- doesn't say "scope out". > The scoping on our very first game Yeah, it's not a gerund, either. Oh, there are so many it's just painful to read, and I have better things to do than sub-edit this. > What Software company offices looked like in the late 80s. Random capitals. Missing apostrophe. This is just such a mess, with random passive voice and all sorts of bad writing, and not so much bad editing as no editing. I gave up. For me, this is unreadable. Shame: Romero is an interesting man and this was an interesting time in the industry.
