Theme of Evil Chef (Image not final)

I've been learning how to make video game music and thought I'd share a little concept for a bossfight, an evil chef who wants to bake you into a pie. This is still very rough but it was nice to get it finished.

Whenever I see someones robot OC, my immediate thought is "can it run doom?" And it haunts me.

I'm mostly drawn to people's OCs through my writing brain. I like to think of what kind of worlds they live in, what kind of unique struggles separate them from humans. For the case of robots, androids, protogens, sentient AIs, cyborgs, and the like, I ponder over lots of existential questions.

Are you part human if you've achieved sentience? Was your mind based off of a human brain? Or did you piece yourself together bit by bit over countless iterations? How much of you is a machine, and how much of you is you? Can you make edits to your own mind, your own memories, the little things that a human couldn't charge about themselves? Do you have the perks of a machine, such as quick calculations and exquisite quality of memory, or are you locked away from those possibilities because accessing them would break you?

And that's where I get to "can it run Doom?"

I like to imagine a TV-headed robot sitting on the couch while a close friend has a keyboard and mouse plugged into their chest. I like to imagine cyborgs using half of their mind to play it during conversations. I like to think that AIs speedrun the game billions of times per second, always searching for the next little boost that can get them ahead.

Why does this haunt me? Well, can the character run a computer program like that? Can they think and comprehend what's going on while the game is playing, or do they have to turn their minds off in order to execute the program? What if they don't ever wake up from that? What if their mind that was once used to simulate an entire consciousness loses it's purpose and becomes nothing more than an unfathomably powerful gaming computer, it's full potential wasted on a game released dozens of years ago that ran on a fraction of a fraction of an android's processing speed, the soul removed and the body filled with nothing more than a mere game?

How would it feel for your own human brain to be used to run countless calculations, outputting a simulation of a place that never existed? Would you feel it? Would you not even notice it? Would it replace your every thought and memory until there was nothing left inside your head?

Why does this haunt me?

Because at least once person is reading all of this and thinks it sounds really hot-

I know it's been almost half a year, but please, if you played myhouse.wad or even just watched a video on it, I AM BEGGING YOU, don't stop there!

There's so many DOOM mods out there. Like 31 years worth of mods. They're so easy to play with Doomrunner and GZDoom.

It's nice that one of them went mainstream, but PLEASE don't stop there. Doom modding needs to keep going for the next thousand years.

Just gonna ping all my mutuals on this blog to let them know.

Changes coming to my blog

This isn't actually a side blog, it's my main account. I made it a Quake fan blog to test the waters and then used @thatspacepirate-oldblog as my main account. But just because it's been frustrating to run it this way, I'm rebranding this account to my main one.

If you just followed me for quake and boomer shooter stuff and aren't interested in my main content, feel free to unfollow me. If you followed me at my old blog, you can find me here now!

Thanks!
