So I've only played doom as a kid and at a friend's place and I want to actually play through the series. Obviously I should start with the first doom but which version? The original on dosbox? Or some of the pc ports? I honestly know NOTHING about doom.

there really is just one "version", but through which software you run is up to you.

I'd recommend using a modern source-port tool these days. If you want best authenticity, no additions of any sort, just better compatibility and options, get Chocolate Doom.
If you want quite authentic experience with SOME "enhancements", get zDoom. But make sure you don't have new shit, like vertical aiming, jumping or shit like bloom enabled.

here's the Doom Guide.
>>
>>331523881
ZDoom is fine as long as you don't jump or look up and down.

Here you go nigger, I uploaded Doom already pre configured with several ports and some megawads and shit. Just double click the game you want to play in the launcher and hit Launch

play doom, doom 2, doom 64 and brutal doom

doom 3 is not a doom game
>>
I'm playing Doom 2 right now and I don't find it that fun. I'm 30 but never played it back then. But played wolf 3d and duke nukem. Game have been getting better. I mean that new games are better then old.
Now kill me /v/

>and brutal doom
Replace that garbage with Doom PSX

Which is also included in >>331525542
>>
>>331526250
try playing 1, it's way more fun than 2

not to say that 2 is bad, but it takes a really long time to pick itself up and it does have lots of unfun levels
>>
>>331527234
OK
Thanks anon. Was beginning to lose faith. I hope Doom will be better (read funner).

Download a Doom sourceport like ZDoom/GZDoom/PRBoom+ and get the WAD files that contain the actual Doom levels. Just click on the sourceport excutable, select your Doom WAD, and play.

1 has the best levels
2 has the best variety
3 is a tech demo that feels more like System Shock 2 with all the RPG stuff taken out.
64 is considered the real 3 by some

Check out the idgames archive for more user made content/levels/whole campaigns then you can shake a super shotgun at.

Fuck off.
>>
>>331523881
In my opinion the best way to play Doom is with SmoothDoom. It makes everything better without really changing the core gameplay.

You might also wanna try Doom 64 EX, which is different than Doom 1/2, but still pretty cool.
>>
Use GZDoom port as it's compatible with every single mapset and mod and has more features than Zdoom.
>>
>>331526060
>Brutal Doom

outdone by Project Brutality in every way
>>
>>331528632
Smooth Doom is great. It's such a little addition, but it's totally worth using.
>>
>>331528986
I only wish they'd add the Doom64 plasma sprite in there.
>>
People always go on about zDoom and running wad, but is there a possibility to run the original windows version with the soundtrack on a modern pc?
>>
>>331529685
You can, but it's not worth the hassle when you can just run it through a source port.
>>
>>331529769
I dunno, that music was really great.

>>331526528
What's wrong with BD?
>>
>>331530601
nothing. people just hate it cos it's popular
>>
>>331530720
Yeah that's what I thought
>>
>>331526060
doom 3 is a good 3 horror game though, at least the non-bfg release was
>>
>>331530843
you can think??
>>
>>331530720
they hate it because of cancerous fanbase and SgtMarkIV is an asshole
>>
>>331532275
This.
There isn't anything wrong with Brutal Doom, but do not start with it. Make sure you have played a decent amount of Doom / Doom II first.
>>
I don't get what's so good about Brutal Doom. It kind of gets boring after a short while.
>>
>>331533425
retards think Brutal Doom added mouselook and jumping so there is that
