When Blood has just unparalleled shotgun and screech of a cultist hit from both barrels makes me smile like a manic, Doom 2 Super Shotgun makes me feel like having six feet long dick.
It's the Castlevania: SOTN save room music that makes it. That said, for me it's honest toss-up between this SSG and the one in Blood as the greatest videogame shotguns of all time. With thousands of examples out there now you'd think they'd have it down to some scientific formula, but apparently it takes genius, arcane magic and rare luck to program the perfect shotgun.
i own a SxS 12 gauge. its a cheap china hunk of shit. but boy howdy when you squeeze both triggers at once, doomguys manic grinning face suddenly appears on your own.
@@J.DeLaPoer Nah. Blood's Rossi Overland is cool, but it has way more bark than it has bite. The SSG on the other hand delivers just as much impact on your ears as it foes on a pinky's skull.

I share your love for the SUPER SHOTGUN, the holy grail of shotguns, the lord of buckshot, the patron saint of demon slaying. The "BOOM-clack-clack" at this point evokes a Pavlovian reaction in the pleasure center of my brain.
fun fact, when i was 4 my dad installed all of doom except for doom 3, that didnt come out yet and he never knew he had a doom 1 and 2 he just played all of plutonia and tnt, mostly pistol starts. Because of that, i started playing doom from plutonia and tnt, also pistol starts. When i started playing doom 1, i was disapointed in the lack of super shotgun, and to this day, i cannot like original doom because of no ssg but i will never like doom 2 for such bland and unintresting levels, with monotonous colors and low amount of enemies. yeah i get it, so does plutonia and tnt, but tnt had levels that, while some are shit, they look visualy pleasing and music compliments them and plutonia is also a shlaughter map grand daddy
In the manual, the Super shotgun is referred to as the "Combat shotgun" with the description "Combat shotguns are double-barreled, sawed-off killings sticks. These gats are the ultimate in pellet warfare." But it's always been the Super shotgun to me. I played Doom 2 before I played Doom, so I always feel kind of naked when playing Doom.
I'm glad to see that you're a man of culture that recognizes that the Archivile was the best addition to Doom 2 and completely changes encounters when they show up.
he is a Man of Culture in every possible way. he recognizes the fact that level 9's music, (Into Sandy's City) is the one of the best doom themes in the game. also recognizing that the Super shotgun is one of the best shotgun ever made in any video game also recognizing that the skelly bois are the meme lords of Doom also recognizing that pain elements are so hated even other demons hate them. the list just piles up
@@JeanMarceaux I'm sure Joel realizes that they are overall good additions to the Doom bestiary. He just doesn't like how people spam them in wads for fake challenge.
@@meyes5671 he realizes, that's for sure, he just despises them to the bitter end. Check out his "Soundless Mound" playthrough, how he reached to just one AV. Not helping is the fact that he was jinxing it the entire time saying that, at the end, there will be an AV.
And Saint Civvie raised the SSG up on high, saying: "O Lord, bless this Thy SSG that, with it, Thou mayest blow Thine enemies to tiny bits in Thy mercy." And the Lord did grin, and the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths and carp and anchovies and orangutans and breakfast cereals and fruit bats and chicken tendies...
The story behind the speedrunners of The Chasm is rather interesting and impressive af. They went from anxiously and carefully walking on those walkways to straferunning through them like they were no big deal.
All hail the SSG. After going through the first 4 episodes of Doom and having no SSG... getting the SSG in Doom 2 makes you feel like a fucking god. Jesus christ that weapon is delightfully powerful & satisfying to fire.
I actuaglly find it difficult to play megawads for Doom 1 exactly because of the lack of Super Shotgun. And the new better balanced monsters. Barons are often a real ResidentSleeper moment.
Technically Episode 4 didn't release until AFTER Doom II so most us played 3 episodes, then had the SSG and then went back to Not having it in Episode 4 and missing it severely
Kind of fitting that the two columbine kids loved this game. They also tried using dangerous chemicals in their school, luckily they were weak ass failures. Fun fact, the plan was to blow up the school, they fucked up the bombs so that was why they shot up the place. Not a joke, look it up. They wanted to get famous and they made it on the cover of time magazine, so they were failures but the media still proved them right.

Doom 2 is so immortal. Fucking iconic. My introduction to the glory that is Doom when I was a kid and wanted to get mechwarrior 2, and my brother found this on the shelf. He and my dad won out and we took Doom 2 home. I can't even be mad about it. Amazing experience that im still not done revisiting. There were many a moment in the game that were pants shittingly scary for us, but one of the most memorable was finding Romero's head, and when we went to shoot him, the screen froze with his face in it's pain state, and crashed. At some point, we made a pact to not play the game after dark. Good fucking times.

I think I may be hitting Doom Enteral a little to hard. The second I saw 21:34 my immediate reaction was "use the flame-belch" followed by three realizations: 1: That doesn't exist in doom 2 2: This is a UA-cam video 3: My finger is on the [R] key
@@Kikiapina Maybe an idea for Halo Doom? ;) I saw the trailer for that mod and it’s lit. The best Marathon game since Marathon Eternal. (I love that game series more than Doom, but its sourceport Aleph One sucks compared to GZ Doom, as the creators are extremely anal about what they’ll allow in engine updates. The Weland map editor is also a user hostile, crash prone piece of crap, much like its creator and several other story page regulars)
I love that he released this just days before Sigil actually came out so one of the first jokes was outdated so fast. Either that or Civvie's joke forced Sigil to be magically done.
@@mjc0961 yeah, absolutely could be. I just remembered him poking fun at how long Sigil was taking in a different video and with Doom on the mind I went there instead.
In this video, Civvie states he has been playing doom since he was 6 years old, he also mentioned he's been doing it for 25 years. Assuming Civvie wasn't exaggerating when he gave those tidbits of info, that makes him in his early-mid 30s Just throwing that out there
TNT and Plutonia are the famous fanmade WADs that got a retail release, but No Rest For The Living is also worth a video I think. It's got some nice architecture using just the stock Doom 2 textures, some frantic battles, and a really cool riff on Tower of Babel for the finale.
according to another doomtuber, decino, who for some reason decided it was a good idea to try and source all of Doom's SFX, it's actually part of a slowed down pig squealing.
Year late, but he did. And only now am I noticing the Super Shotgun has the anim ticrate wrong from the shells being put in to the gun closing. You can hear it in the SFX if you compare it to the OG SSG. The Smooth Doom one is ready to refire a grand 3 tics earlier than vanilla.

Maybe functionally or whatever but aesthetically Eternal’s is a joke in comparison. It’s still awesome, but in comparison to the glory of Doom 2’s it doesn’t hold a candle.
@Michael Batashov No, but my "wonderful" mother did give me a non-grammatically correct name (because of petty family in-fighting) that has caused me all sorts of issues my whole life, from my days in school to census and bank data, you name it. And I'm too far in at this point to change my name legally and start the whole bullshit train over again, not worth the time or money.
tricks and traps will probably be my favorite doom level for all eternity, just bc the feeling of destroying a room full of barons and a cyberdemon with no bfg is just fucking *delicious*
14:50 it is here I realized pro doom desperately needs a bfg counter just like pro wang's nuke counter, preferably with an Imp Death noise or Lo Wang soundbite if you want to be spicy
This got me thinking. I wonder if they'll bring back the Icon of Sin for DooM: Eternal as a boss fight at least three times the size of the Spider Mastermind or the Cyberdemon from DooM 2016, effectively doubling as it's own level, until eventually it moves around, no longer just a hanging head that spawns monsters, but a colossal beast straight out of Lost Planet 2, stomping around and creating miniature lava shockwaves while still spawning monsters from it's skull...... okay, I want that now. It'd do the wall texture some justice in the modern titles.
I could see them doing this, honestly. I've noticed that in Eternal they've even changed a lot of the enemies from Doom 2016 to look more like their original designs, so I think bringing back the Icon of Sin is definitely in the cards, at least in a reimagined form for a better gameplay challenge.
@@CegeRoles Also he made a cameo in DOOM 2016 in one of the Hell levels (but not as a fightable enemy) and if you shoot him in the skull with RPG the cube that spawns enemies in DOOM 2 comes out and reveals a collectible and some ammo
One of my earliest memories, alongside learning to swim, is my dad playing Map 28 and commenting that the hallway with the scrolling spine texture was likely to give people headaches. That's a permanent memory instead of something useful, like how to do taxes.
The music at 2:40 is "Devon Church - Lament (Golden Light)". I could have sword it's from some movie soundtrack like Interstellar by Hans Zimmer or simmilar.
I lost my job after watching this video. That's fine, though, as watching you explain how Doom 2 realize Doom's potential made me want to realize my own potential. So good job, Civvie, totally worth it. #freecivvie
reminds me of that super-special-bullshit level in Plutonia where there are two chaingunners on high platforms, that have 2 acrhviles hidden inside a wall behind them. so that every time you kill a chaingunner, they will resurrect them back instantly. VERY FAIR AND BALANCED
I feel like the castle map is what spawned the later idea of allowing fast travel just prior to level completion in the later games. Really made cleaning up in that level a lot less tedious
Monster Condo is probably my favorite Doom level. Between the music, moody architecture (dark libraries and marble areas) and general eerie atmosphere, it just works.
It's a very good level aside from the 30 second secret, which is naff. You can spend half of it invulnerable and tearing ass. Plus it has Barney the helpful Archie!
24:45 DOOM is 3D (though it can't represent the full range of 3D architecture) and understands height (tall monsters can get stuck trying to go through doors and rockets can pass over monsters). The infinitely tall monsters thing is intentionally there to stop situations where you could fall atop a zombieguy standing in an elevator and get stuck, unable to auto-aim down at them and they unable to auto-aim up at you. Since id was already making a groundbreaking engine with a small team they simply took the easy way out and prevented this from happening. It's actually fairly trivial to turn infinite height collision off in the source code which is why source ports and Heretic/Hexen did so.
Well, the reason why that aiming thing was a problem to begin with is that the renderer is not 3D, either, and if up/down look was implemented it would be through Y-shearing, which is very limited and looks terrible. The only thing that is 3D in Doom is positioning of entities, which is simple enough to plot out in an abstract space. I prefer not to call the game "3D" because that implies it has all the capabilities of a game like Quake.
You play a game with its original limitations the same way a 1700's period actor uses period equipment instead of showing up in their 10$ sweatpants and a T-shirt. Sometimes you just want to experience how something used to be, no matter how shit / archaic it is compared to its modern counterpart, and quite frankly, sometimes the old shit is more fun, even if it is clunky.
That's a garbage comparison. If it actually WERE like Bats it'd piss moan and complain about justice every time the player kills a demon and do its damndest to screw the PLAYER over for not playing footsies with the monsters bent on destroying humanity
@@ejandrews3065 his no killing rule is a joke, simp. All that shit does is goad his villains into committing worse and worse atrocities while the people Bats is SUPPOSED TO BE PROTECTING pay the price for his delusions of morality
Don’t think I didn’t catch that Castlevania SOTN menu music you beautiful son of a gun. It’s at 2:30 when you first hear it if you zone out Civvie for a second.
It would be awesome still if he uses Rondo of Blood music for something similar in Doom 64. Opposing Bloodlines from level 1 for example, when he gets the super shotgun or unmaker, and/or the remix of Poison Mind for the mother demon.
Me and my brother measured monster's health in rockets (one close up SSG blast was equivalent to a rocket according to our experiences :p), so it brought me joy to see in the HK file @5:50 in that little note on the bottom left there is a similar observation c:
I emailed Romero around 2005 as a 13 year old and told him I'd been playing the game with my dad since I was 3 and had also been given nightmares for months upon seeing the rabbit head on a stick at the end; a day later he emails me back with a sincere thank you and his apologies; was still one of the coolest things that happened to me as a teenager, Romero is an awesome dude no question!

When Blood has just unparalleled shotgun and screech of a cultist hit from both barrels makes me smile like a manic, Doom 2 Super Shotgun makes me feel like having six feet long dick.
It's the Castlevania: SOTN save room music that makes it. That said, for me it's honest toss-up between this SSG and the one in Blood as the greatest videogame shotguns of all time. With thousands of examples out there now you'd think they'd have it down to some scientific formula, but apparently it takes genius, arcane magic and rare luck to program the perfect shotgun.
i own a SxS 12 gauge. its a cheap china hunk of shit.
but boy howdy when you squeeze both triggers at once, doomguys manic grinning face suddenly appears on your own.
@@J.DeLaPoer
Nah. Blood's Rossi Overland is cool, but it has way more bark than it has bite. The SSG on the other hand delivers just as much impact on your ears as it foes on a pinky's skull.
"Back when I could use my imagination" I miss that
That shit hit different now
Me too, I miss when vanilla Duke 3D felt like an immersive real world where you did not notice the sub was way out of proportion, or rather, did not care.
Lol
When I heard "The layout lends itself to some incredible deathmatch combat."
I seriously doubted this hardcore at first because it's so unlike any multiplayer arena I've come to enjoy.
But now I've played Doom 2 deathmatch. And... yeah the man ain't wrong.
The Super Shotgun is so amazing in every way that it retroactively ruins DOOM 1 if you go back to it after 2.
No shit, it really does. I seldom play a Doom 1 megawad because of no SSG. Sigil and Deathless are the two exceptions I can think of right now.
No?
Nah. I still enjoy Doom 1 plenty without the super shotgun, because the normal shotgun is still super fun to use and the levels are awesome.
@@doctorbrown5957 Agreed, but whenever I'm shotgunning a Cacodemon in Doom 1 it makes me wish I had a SSG.

fun fact, when i was 4 my dad installed all of doom except for doom 3, that didnt come out yet
and he never knew he had a doom 1 and 2
he just played all of plutonia and tnt, mostly pistol starts.
Because of that, i started playing doom from plutonia and tnt, also pistol starts.
When i started playing doom 1, i was disapointed in the lack of super shotgun, and to this day, i cannot like original doom because of no ssg
but i will never like doom 2 for such bland and unintresting levels, with monotonous colors and low amount of enemies.
yeah i get it, so does plutonia and tnt, but tnt had levels that, while some are shit, they look visualy pleasing and music compliments them
and plutonia is also a shlaughter map grand daddy
In the manual, the Super shotgun is referred to as the "Combat shotgun" with the description "Combat shotguns are double-barreled, sawed-off killings sticks. These gats are the ultimate in pellet warfare." But it's always been the Super shotgun to me. I played Doom 2 before I played Doom, so I always feel kind of naked when playing Doom.
I truly, deeply, absolutely felt Civvie's hate when he introduced the Pain Elemental.
I got introduced to Pain Elementals in Doom 64. Absolutely loathe those motherfuckers.

also recognizing that pain elements are so hated even other demons hate them.
the list just piles up
That Archvile praise just killed any chances there will ever be a Joel/Civvie collab
Also you recognize that Into Sandy's City is the best track in the Doom series (discounting TNT)
@@JeanMarceaux
I'm sure Joel realizes that they are overall good additions to the Doom bestiary. He just doesn't like how people spam them in wads for fake challenge.
@@meyes5671 he realizes, that's for sure, he just despises them to the bitter end. Check out his "Soundless Mound" playthrough, how he reached to just one AV. Not helping is the fact that he was jinxing it the entire time saying that, at the end, there will be an AV.
And Saint Civvie raised the SSG up on high, saying:
"O Lord, bless this Thy SSG that, with it, Thou mayest blow Thine enemies to tiny bits in Thy mercy."
And the Lord did grin, and the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths and carp and anchovies and orangutans and breakfast cereals and fruit bats and chicken tendies...

The story behind the speedrunners of The Chasm is rather interesting and impressive af. They went from anxiously and carefully walking on those walkways to straferunning through them like they were no big deal.
All hail the SSG. After going through the first 4 episodes of Doom and having no SSG... getting the SSG in Doom 2 makes you feel like a fucking god. Jesus christ that weapon is delightfully powerful & satisfying to fire.
I actuaglly find it difficult to play megawads for Doom 1 exactly because of the lack of Super Shotgun. And the new better balanced monsters. Barons are often a real ResidentSleeper moment.
Technically Episode 4 didn't release until AFTER Doom II so most us played 3 episodes, then had the SSG and then went back to Not having it in Episode 4 and missing it severely
Ya the SSG really kicked the regular shotgun into the friend zone. HARD.

He and my dad won out and we took Doom 2 home. I can't even be mad about it. Amazing experience that im still not done revisiting. There were many a moment in the game that were pants shittingly scary for us, but one of the most memorable was finding Romero's head, and when we went to shoot him, the screen froze with his face in it's pain state, and crashed.

In this video, Civvie states he has been playing doom since he was 6 years old, he also mentioned he's been doing it for 25 years.
Assuming Civvie wasn't exaggerating when he gave those tidbits of info, that makes him in his early-mid 30s

I’m 31, bout the time I started playing on my dad’s computer. So we’re probably the same age.

TNT and Plutonia are the famous fanmade WADs that got a retail release, but No Rest For The Living is also worth a video I think. It's got some nice architecture using just the stock Doom 2 textures, some frantic battles, and a really cool riff on Tower of Babel for the finale.
The only real weakness of NRftL is the lack of backpacks.
According to John Romero, the Mancubus is actually saying something along the lines of "manablanablah" before it attacks.
I always heard them saying "fuck ya mom", and I still do.

It'd do the wall texture some justice in the modern titles.
I could see them doing this, honestly. I've noticed that in Eternal they've even changed a lot of the enemies from Doom 2016 to look more like their original designs, so I think bringing back the Icon of Sin is definitely in the cards, at least in a reimagined form for a better gameplay challenge.

24:45
DOOM is 3D (though it can't represent the full range of 3D architecture) and understands height (tall monsters can get stuck trying to go through doors and rockets can pass over monsters). The infinitely tall monsters thing is intentionally there to stop situations where you could fall atop a zombieguy standing in an elevator and get stuck, unable to auto-aim down at them and they unable to auto-aim up at you. Since id was already making a groundbreaking engine with a small team they simply took the easy way out and prevented this from happening. It's actually fairly trivial to turn infinite height collision off in the source code which is why source ports and Heretic/Hexen did so.
Well, the reason why that aiming thing was a problem to begin with is that the renderer is not 3D, either, and if up/down look was implemented it would be through Y-shearing, which is very limited and looks terrible. The only thing that is 3D in Doom is positioning of entities, which is simple enough to plot out in an abstract space. I prefer not to call the game "3D" because that implies it has all the capabilities of a game like Quake.
it is 3D if you play it in a source port without any Boomer compat options, why turn them off anyways? it's like wanting to play in 320x240
You play a game with its original limitations the same way a 1700's period actor uses period equipment instead of showing up in their 10$ sweatpants and a T-shirt.
Sometimes you just want to experience how something used to be, no matter how shit / archaic it is compared to its modern counterpart, and quite frankly, sometimes the old shit is more fun, even if it is clunky.
