- demo Windows Impulsum Fabrica by Pyrotech
- They could have used their own engine, but that's not the problem. Unreal doesn't have a "generate demo" button. (Though if it did, this is probably what it would deliver.)
They could have used their own assets, but that's not the problem. You can't substitute direction with building blocks, no matter how lovingly you've crafted those blocks.
They could have scheduled things better so this thing wouldn't be 10 gigabytes, if indeed running out of time is why none of the unused bloat was trimmed, but even that's not the problem. A lot of demos are horrendous messes at release (admittedly rarely to this degree), because we have decided to romanticize "partycoding" which often is just a nice way to say "deadline is in 2 hours, I'm bucking under stress and I have no way to fix any of this".
Try watching this and pretending they did all of those things. It's still not a good demo, right? I see comparisons to ASD - this disjointed jank is probably what ASD demos look like to people who hate ASD. To me, this looks more like Japotek, except even Japotek is exonerated by having had 25 years less of progress in demo design to draw from. The only sign of progress here is that pixel shaders have since been introduced. - sucksadded on the 2024-08-09 13:03:24

- A cracktro for tracker music, which itself is something that everyone outside the scene calls "keygen music". Next year's Boozedrome cover art should be a snake wrapped around an Amiga ball eating its own tail.

- NR4, it's a quote from the mag. If you're "here for demos and friendship", you should care that people are using the demoscene as a vessel for that.

- (I don't want to bring any more stress to those allegedly "Nazi-minded" individuals by naming them here, but at least one of them seems to be labelled as "Nazi-minded" simply because they are LGBTQ+)

Perhaps you have a complete discrimination list stating who should 'fuck off and leave demoscene' and who is allowed to stay by the mercy of demoscene god?
I know at least one of the writers has one.

- demo Amiga OCS/ECS Is Real by Desire [web]
- I'm going to resort to an overused cliche here, but make a demo about it. If you think the victims of Hamas aren't being given due respect by the demoscene, make a demo about it. I might even thumb it up, as long as it doesn't imply there is an equivalence between an atrocity carried out by a radical terrorist fringe and an ongoing campaign of atrocities carried out by a legitimized government with nearly unwavering support from the West.
And because I know someone is going to hang on to that word "West" there, I'm not picking sides. The East has their own sins. The Uyghur genocide. Ukraine. We've had demos about Ukraine, as we should have. Now we have a demo about Palestine. - isokadded on the 2024-01-25 15:55:16

- It is absolutely correct to place more scrutiny on the atrocities of "one side" of a "both sides" conflict when there is an immense power disparity between those sides.

nonconformant
In a handful of legislations around the world, there are laws against farting in public spaces, such as elevators. Most everywhere, though, it's just a social contract that people choose to conform to. - sucksadded on the 2024-01-25 14:15:50

- I do not appreciate this drivel being shat out in any language. Putinists fuck off and leave the demoscene.
