EnglishHow to Follow News and Updates About Doom64 EX
Updated
The official Doom64 EX WordPress site (doom64ex.wordpress.com) is the place to watch for project news, and it offers a subscribe option if you want updates without checking back manually. Posts are filed under blog categories such as Uncategorized, so the front page and category archive are where new items surface. The site describes itself as "A recreation of a N64 classic," which sets the scope: it covers the Doom64 EX project itself, not general Doom 64 coverage.
What the site actually publishes
The site's posts are short announcements rather than long dev diaries. A representative example is the "Doom64 2020 Update" post (published February 24, 2022 by Kaiser), which notes that the Doom64 2020 Remaster "has finally had the opportunity to be updated" and points readers to the full change list on the remaster's Steam news page.
That pattern is worth internalizing: the WordPress site announces that something changed and often links out for the details. If you only skim the blog, you may miss the substance of an update.
What a typical post contains
- A headline naming the update (e.g., "Doom64 2020 Update")
- A one- or two-sentence summary of what happened
- A link to the full changelog or announcement elsewhere (in the example above, a Steam news URL)
- Author attribution (Kaiser) and a date
- A category tag (the example is filed under Uncategorized)
Ways to keep up
| Method | What you get | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Visit the site directly | Latest posts on the front page; older ones via the category archive (e.g., Uncategorized) | Occasional check-ins |
| Use the site's subscribe option | Updates delivered to you instead of you visiting | Not wanting to miss announcements |
| Follow the linked changelog pages | The actual list of changes an announcement refers to | Understanding what an update changed |
The subscribe option is the most reliable of the three if you don't want to poll the site. The site's own materials mention subscribe/subscription, but they don't state terms, so check the signup flow for what it actually sends and how often.
A practical routine
- Start at the front page. New announcements appear as posts; scan titles and dates first.
- Open any post that mentions an update. Read the summary, then follow the outbound link (often to a Steam news page) for the full changelog.
- Check the category archive if the front page looks stale — posts are grouped under categories like Uncategorized, and older announcements live there.
- Subscribe if you'd rather be notified than remember to check.
Common snags
- Expecting full changelogs on the blog. They usually aren't there; the post links out. Follow the link.
- Assuming silence means no activity. The blog is updated in bursts (the 2022 post was the first update noted after a gap), so a quiet front page isn't proof the project is dormant.
- Confusing the projects. Doom64 EX (the recreation covered by this site) and the Doom64 2020 Remaster (whose news lives on Steam) are separate; the blog sometimes announces news about the latter, but the detailed notes are on Steam.
- Missing categorized posts. If you're browsing by category, remember some announcements sit under generic tags like Uncategorized rather than a project-specific one.
Bottom line
Follow doom64ex.wordpress.com for project announcements, use its subscribe option to avoid manual checking, and treat each post as a pointer — the real detail usually sits behind the link it provides.
