My favourite mechanic is the in-game fighting between the monsters. Let them rip each other apart. It’s so satisfying stirring the hornets nest and watch them fight each other. Something that really lacked in doom eternal.

[@Ashurion-Neonix]

Where can I even start? The way random code details give them different aggression levels, the pain chances, the sizes. Tiny details that add so much strategy. The way people utilise them in maps always impresses me. Custom maps have been mainstream since 1994 and we are still getting unique fights.
Doom eternal is still super fun only as long as you are good you don't really need to try except on nightmare as you can just replenish armour faster than you take damage. I feel it's a blast to play on nightmare though as you always have to think.
But classic doom lends it's way to unique strategy you don't see much even in other retro shooters.
While the maps are dated it's still incredible how the gameplay of doom 2 is still able to hold alongside eternal.
I tend to switch between liking different games so I can't say for sure but I generally consider doom 2 especially to be just as good as eternal, impressive considering the time gap. Doom will always be one of my favourite games of all time.

@@Ashurion-Neonix Same here. I’ve been playing it since it was on diskette for the old 386 and 486 PC’s. Shareware only had Episode 1 but it still felt like a full game. Doom will go on forever being in the greatest games of all time.

[@Billygoatbuff]

What are you talking about? There were fights between demons in doom eternal. It was in the first level

[@annstevens6223]

@@Billygoatbuff yes but they don’t drain each other’s health meter, therefore defeating the strategy of them killing each other.

[@Elden-Bear]

@@annstevens6223pretty sure the reason why was because that you’re meant to play the game and not let the demons play it for you

We were so happy back then and we knew it!!!!

Awesome gaming bro.. It reminds me of my childhood game …😊

[@Defnotyeett]

Tbh, i played a l4d2 custom campaign thats knee deep in the dead, i should consider buying doom.

[@lloydkim3990]

how did yo open the door in the beggining 0:32?

[@Ashurion-Neonix]

The use key. Alt by default in the original dos version.

Omg so glad I found this. You have other videos for other levels ??
And does this work for the doom I have on my ps5? It's the og doom 1993.

[@Ashurion-Neonix]

Modern console ports are based on the dos version so the levels will all be the same. Though I'm using the levels from the initial 1993 retail release instead of the updated version so there will be some minor differences but it won't affect the walkthrough.

[@Ashurion-Neonix]

That texture filtering. It burns my eyes.

[@StuckInTheSimulation]

I’m playing but there’s no enemies and I didn’t have to unlock the door

[@thomasbrechner7561]

It's because you're playing on a different difficulty

[@thomasbrechner7561]

Are you playing this on MS Dos?

[@Ashurion-Neonix]

I used gzdoom at the time. Nowadays I use crispy doom as it's close to dos while being much easier to work with. Though for more advanced community made content I'll use prboom+ or gzdoom.

[@thomasbrechner7561]

@@Ashurion-Neonix I remember when this game was released. My sister's friend had an computer and he was actually downloading the levels one by because they were so big that even one level would take like 2 day's or something insane like that. I think he probably had like windows 2.0 or 2.1 anyway he busted out the joystick and I immediately was hooked. I still play this game now and it's been almost 30 years

[@thomasbrechner7561]

I think I've heard of gzdoom before but I'd have to Google it to be sure

[@Riffrippinroddy]

Im playing on ps4 and the fucking door at 0:32 wont open

Hi

[@chrishoward3733]

Is there no way to kill all monsters in the final area?

[@Ashurion-Neonix]

I don't know if it's possible to kill them quick enough

[@nachorodriguez6380]

​@@Ashurion-NeonixI think it is possible on the lowest difficulty setting. I almost did it once. On UV, however, it's pretty much undoable without god mode.

[@Ashurion-Neonix]

@@nachorodriguez6380 UV only changes monster quantity and there's always the same amount of monsters in the exit room on all difficulties.

[@nachorodriguez6380]

@@Ashurion-Neonix I didn't know that. I'll try again then lol

How did you trigger the doorto get to the chainsaw
