I'm not actually playing DOOM 1, I'm playing The Ultimate DOOM, but I'm pretty sure it's just DOOM 1 with more content. I have no idea how long the game is, so I don't know if it's worth making a topic over, but fuck it.

So far, it's pretty fun. Not a fan of the mouse moving forwards/backwards causing movement forwards/backwards, but there's not a whole lot I can do about it. Turning sensitivity is painfully low, though.

Made it through Phobos Lab with exactly 1% health remaining. Way too close for comfort. Not a fan of semi-invisible enemies combined with low visibility at ALL. And I finally got a secret!

You missed the light amplification goggles then, lol. To play doom for the first time again, what I wouldn't give.

What difficulty are you playing on?

one of the things i always liked about doom was it taught the opposite lesson of more modern games

going for 100% completion of a level was actually worse for you due to limited ammo drops (esp of the good stuff) compared to what you'd use to progress

obviously this was especially true on nightmare but nobody actually plays on nightmare

Wasn't that the mode where enemies respawn? Yeah fuck that.

I think you can disable it? or are you playing the steam release? if so you should look into getting GZDoom and use that to load the .wads

It was made as a joke difficulty, then people started making demos of them beating it. Jokes on id I guess

People will beat anything they set their minds to I guess. I remember when Kaizo Mario was thought to be impossible.

Yeah, I'm playing the Steam release. It's not a dealbreaker or anything, and I'm also lazy, so I'll adapt.

That being said, where the HELL are these secrets? Am I just not searching hard enough?

I would really recommend on getting GZDoom though, it's pretty much an enhanced port to run the Id games (doom, hexen, heretic, etc), and pretty sure its not against the ToS to name it since it requires you to own the games already since it just loads the .wads into it.

https://zdoom.org/about

Overall is the best thing to run the games on, and it lets you do stuff like run custom maps and shit really easy.

Oh, yeah, that's a thing... I haven't played without a source port in like 15 years. Still better than playing with just a keyboard, though, IMO.

I beat both games on PS3 not too long ago actually, was mad fun. Still some of the best games I've ever played.

Yah. Some are pretty weird, like in the toxin refinery, but most of them are oddly colored walls that are actually doors or hinted at by lights.

Which one did you find?

No idea, but I got an 11% on the secrets screen.

I don't have Ultimate Doom videos, but some of the maps return as unlockables in the newest Doom game with most (if not all) of the secrets intact:

Some of the maps are from Doom 2 and 3, but it's mostly the first Doom.

That's cool, will be nice when I buy DOOM 2016 eventually.

Cleared the first episode, onto the second.

Once you beat Doom (and maybe Doom 2), mod the fuck out of it. No regrets.

This, lol. But a few ones I've enjoyed are:

Gameplay Mods:

Metroid Dreadnought - Turns Doom into a Metroid Prime experience, complete with different beams and upgrades, with the ability to do things like rolling.

GMOTA (Go Medieval on Their Asses) - If you like fantasy-themed SNES games, this is your go-to. One of my favorite mods. Similar to Shovel Knight, new characters are slowly being released.

Demonsteele - If you like really flashy, edgy anime mods, this one's for you. One of the best gameplay-wise.

Russian Overkill -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0ZtACHdrXQ


Randomizers/Replayability Mods:

OBLIGE - Basically a Doom AI that creates levels.

Jimmy's Jukebox - This mod randomizes the music in Doom. There's a gigantic pool of midis thrown into the mix, and you'll never hear the same song twice.

Doom Roguelike Arsenal + Doom RPG - These are two separate mods that can be combined together. If you want a Doom experience that'll last you at least 20 hours, play this. It turns Doom into a full-on RPG with a lot of depth and mechanics. My outright favorite mod.

Maps:

Doom the way Id Did: Simply more Doom. Every map takes inspiration from a level in Doom 1/2.

This is just a small taste. If you want more google "Cacowards."

It has the most monsters, and it's a bit tough but still very fair. Always found UV to be the most fun by far.

Eh, might be a bit overwhelming for a first timer. Cut him some slack.

Yeah, I suppose. He should seriously consider UV if he replays the game, though.

Not to distract from the Doom love, but if you're looking for another classic shooter then Duke Nukem 3D is always a good choice.

Wait, did I just get trapped? I went to this room and killed a bunch of monsters, but after I killed all of them, the exit got blocked off and the ceiling in the center started oscillating up and down. Is that meant for me to kill myself?

Episode 1 of DOOM is probably my favorite game of all time. As much of a meme as he's become, Romero was an absolute god of game design.

It's especially great against the pinky demons. Also, if you're feeling ballsy, you can get up close to a cacodemon (the floating tomatoes that belch fireballs at you) and cut it to pieces. Don't worry about being attacked; the chainsaw stunlocks the critter.

Sigs are rather pointless, except if it's to showcase animation and images.
