Oh my god the retro kickback. What has it been? About 20 years ago, when I had two PC's hooked at home via serial cable and we ran Doom 2 death match. First level is the perfect hunting ground for one-on-one duels. I still vividly remember the feeling when my friend was in rocket cabinet and I went for him dodging I think 5 rockets in that narrow corridor, ran next to him and BOOM two shells in his face. The cursing and agony seeing your pal humiliated right next to you coming to hit me in the shoulder 😂 Good times. I think I've battled on this map for I'd guess for something like 50 to 100 hours alone. So this is a real treat for me to see. Two legends battling in the same grounds, thank you! 👍👍

Having John Romero show up and face you is like the pinnacle of doom. There’s nothing higher to achieve in this game. You are a legend dude.

[@claudiospeed]

"To win the game you must kill me, John Romero" quite literally, awesome match!

[@psi9000]

That’s awesome decino! He even trash-talked ya, I love it!

[@demogorgonzola]

"To win the game, you must kill me, John Romero" - well, mission accomplished! :)

This is so legendary my room transformed into an Egyptian Temple for the duration of this video.

Thanks for the content and reigniting my passion for Doom. Just done my first ever UV run of The Plutonia Experiment and I found it much more fun than I thought it would be. That's mainly down to watching your videos, didn't watch them to learn to play better but I sure did!

"To win the game, you must kill me, John Romero" He did it, everyone, pack it up, only downhill from here.

The most unexpected thing to watch in the evening right 1 hour before going into the world of Dreams Bravo! this is epic

[@SvendleBerries]

This is why God destroyed the Tower of Babel and then scrambled language lol Seriously though, this was really cool to watch :D After all these years, Romero still hangs out with the Doom community.

[@felynecomrade]

Also because there was a Cyberdemon on it.

Decino, I'm extremely happy for you. To see someone so passionate about Doom, who's part of this amazing community, who makes great content, getting to deathmatch with Romero himself AND shares it with his audience....it's something really special. I love this community so much. With all your hard as hell work, you truly deserve this. Well done, buddy
