Why watch a video with such a pointlessly clickbait title?

[–] Hildegarde@lemmy.world 12 points 7 months ago (5 children)

Because it is a good video by a channel that makes quality game related content.

Its not the fault of a channel that google made an atrocious sorting algorithm.

They could have made the title about the fact that FPS wasn't a term at the time instead of using a question that is worded in the present tense.

"What genre was Doom when it was released"

I'll take this one: Wolfenstein Clone.

[–] Hildegarde@lemmy.world 0 points 7 months ago

It makes no sense to call something a clone when it was made by the same studio that made the original. Very few wanted to call quake a doom clone.
