SIGIL II
Makou:
SIGIL II releases December 10th, according to a tweet from John Romero that has received surprisingly little fanfare. Preorders are live, at a cost of €6.66 for the most basic digital-only version.
SIGIL II is the unofficial sixth episode for the original Doom, containing nine single-player maps, two deathmatch maps, and (like 2019's SIGIL) two soundtracks -- an origial MIDI OST by Jimmy Paddock, and a non-MIDI OST by Thorr (who?).
Woodsman:
i thought he was going to use doom 2 for this one. Thats kind of disappointing.
Makou:
He apparently did make it clear when SIGIL II was announced that it would be for (Ultimate) Doom, but because he called it a MegaWAD it was erroneously reported to be for Doom II by. Everyone.
He is working on a separate Doom II project, though.
Phoenix:
Preorders for the more expensive packs sold out day one.
I also had thought Sigil II was going to be for Doom II, but if we're getting Sigil II for Doom and another project for Doom II then that's even better. More Romero, more Doom, more demons to slay. :doom_thumb:
Makou:
I only wish it had a more... creative?... title, if it's going to be a sixth episode of OG Doom. "SIGIL II" would make more sense as a Doom II WAD that sees Baphomet and Satan at it again, honestly. But, if I trust anyone to handle yet more OG Doom and its limitations, it's Romero. I still think Doom's best maps were almost all his, though I think most would string me up for how much I actually like Perfect Hatred.
Against Thee Wickedly can spork right off, though.
At any rate, if I had to guess, the aim for this unnamed Doom II project is probably for it to be out late next year. Somewhere between the very end of September and the first third of October. Just a guess. No particular reason for it.
Edit: Today I learned the board censors that word, lol
