Carmack Working Ahead

Official Armadillo Q&A thread on the X-Prize Forums (thanks Redwood) features the id Software lead programmer outlining the status of his team of hobbyist rocketeers. Along the way he describes the balance of how he can divide his time between spaceflight and game design by admitting he's already working on some new tech for their next game:
Id vs Armadillo:
I am working on the rendering technology for the next game right now, so it looks like the balance will stay about the same for a while at least.

Whatever happened to gameplay?

To be honest, photo-realism doesn't interest me at all. I don't care to see realistic gaping wounds in what I am shooting. Maybe we can add more reality in war games. More AI should cry for their mommy when I shoot them. Maybe they should start pleading with us that they have children at home before we blow their realistic heads off. Realistically, of course.

John Carmack could shit in a box and sell it and many people here would extole it's virtues.

Give me new gameplay!
