best:
>gaem
Doom 1 for the level design, 2 for the resources

>gun
the normal shotgun is underused in every Doom 2 wad because "muh supershotgun", despite being satisfying af
having a reason to use it is a big part of why i pistol start

>WAD
>choosing only one favorite
NERVE.wad is underrated af
it's the best official mapset bar none

>Doom 3 is a re-imagining of the first game and a complete departure from the originals in terms of gameplay and tone
>gets labeled as a numerical sequel

>Doom 2016 is (most likely) a direct continuation of Doom 1+2+64, is filled with stupid amounts of fan service and has far more in common with the originals than Doom 3
>gets labeled as a reboot

Advertising and Denuvo almost killed this game, holy shit did Bethesda fuck it up.
>"hey guize, check out our multiplayer! rip n tare xDDD"
Between this and Hitman 2016, I'm convinced publishers sabotage games that cater to older fans.

I now Play Japanese community Project.
its tough.

The people who were in charge of the marketing for D44M should honestly be shitcanned, the E3 demo and all the emphasis on the awful and unnecessary multiplayer made the game look like it was going to be Halo: Edgy Demon Boogaloo

/vr/ is much better for DOOM threads. Anyway, I'm jumping between finishing D64 and the second expansion for Quake.

They did this exact shit for Wolfenstein The New Order too, which was another game poorly marketed, never shipped review copies, yet proceeded to be far better than expected.

I've never liked "3D" looks for classic doom, zdoom software rendering all the way for me, or compromise with GZ and filtering off and such

I thought New Order had good marketing, used interesting music at least.

I'm talking mostly in terms of gameplay demos and how they handled the review situation.

This confused me too.

Doom 3 was a reboot
Doom 4 was a sequel to Doom 1, 2, 64, and if you believe the crazy theories, every WAD ever. Even the Terry WADS

Hardware mode is kinda hideous alot of the time. Buttt my vision is shit, and software mode is too dark half the time, so I stick with GLBoom+ for vanilla play, gzdoom/zan hardware for mods.

I remember the E3 where they showed the WWII opening mission and every reviewer there shit all over it. Oh how little things change...

And Quake 3, the minimal plot of which fits the Doom 4 lore pretty well.
I know right? it's almost like a tutorial mission is there to teach you the basics...

I like your style. I've never played the quake mission packs, are they worth it? Lately I've been playing through a lot of quake mods and have been wondering if they compare. Doom 64 is also a great fucking game

>every wad ever
even hdoom

This means not only did he do both NUTS and H-doom but he did the H-doom version of NUTS.

He also visited Jerry's apartment

Quake's expansions are alright, but they pale in comparison to the main game.

Also, Scourge of Amagon > Dissolution of Eternity.

>he doesnt pistol start

HDoom, Sup Forums.WAD, and other shit like that is super canon now.

Iw ould say they're better than the main id campaign, better music and level designers both more experienced with 3D tools and design and aiming for something more cohesive since id just slapped whatever they had on hand and called it a day since they were under a lot of turmoil at the time. New weapons are cool but not groundbreaking. and I prefer the Scourge of Armagon soundtrack to the NIN one, even if it does a have a unique atmosphere. I like metal in my id shooters.

>Oh, hey Kramer
>Jerry, there's a maniac tearing up the place!
>Are you having an out of body experience again?

Thanks boys, I think I'll Start them tonight

you forgot the 5 minute pause for the audience clapping and cheering to kramer coming onto the set

Could this be the real reason why doomguy is so upset in D44M? He just wants to go back to having wacky .WAD adventures

Could be, or it could be a subtle bit of existential horror where he's just gone mad from an eternity locked in never ending combat.

Doomguy...Had a hard life.

Tell me about the crazy theories
I only know about the "quake-doom" theory

>gets subjected to what is essentially eternal damnation in hell and various other dimensions just because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time

what did he do to deserve this

DOOM 1 with Brutal Doom/Project Brutality and the new DOOM.

Everything else is kinda meh to be honest.

He sacrificed everything to save Earth, and now pays the price for his chivalry.

The theory goes that the lore that says he was "sent across space and time to new universes, to fight for eternity" (paraphrasing) is a reference to the Doom WADs staring Doomguy now being canon: They are the other universes.

What's the quake-doom theory?

reddit link, sorry

noice! new doom infographic

Neat, but I don't buy it: How are there humans in Quake 2 and 4 fighting Strogg if this is the case?

magic space-time portals

That's nice. At least Final Doom has a story now.

My favourite WAD is probably infharen.wad (Infernal Hell Arena) or UACMN.

>Favorite game.
Doom 2.

>Gun
Super shotgun.

>rank the episodes
They're all great, famm.

>tfw Terry painting in Golden Souls

kek

>Game
Ultimate DOOM

>Gun
Super Shotgun natch

>WAD
Sup Forums.wad - I can't help but laugh every time. It's like a guilty pleasure.
Also, MM8BDM... if that counts as a just a .wad

Doom 2.
Shotgun best gun.
Demonsteele because I like the idea of first-person DMC featuring a skunk-haired loli munching on Doritos and Mountain Dew slicing through a horde of demons in that one cliched sword move where everything just bursts into blood and guts the second she sheathes her katana.

>Game
Ultimate Doom
>Gun
Plasma for SP, Super Shotgun for MP
>WAD
Probably the two new maps Romero released. Is there anything else like them? The ways the levels shift around and the enemy placement is top notch.
