10 months agoThere’s no way going open source has done anything but help Doom. I guarantee they’ve made more money from people buying their old games for the WADs to play with source ports and mods than they’ve lost money to things like Freedoom.
The game and the engine are both open source. The game’s assets just aren’t freely available, so you still need an official WAD or an asset replacement pack like Freedoom.
