Its about interacting with the enemies, they each have a different attack pattern that needs to be avoided and you attack them accordingly while prioritizing stronger ones in big groups and exploring a big level that guides you to enemies and keys to unlock more of the area

Think of it as a shoot em up on FPS but the map layout is a puzzle, and the enemies have patterns you can use to advantage, and on later difficulties surviving awhile figuring out the map is tricky enough. Fast paced puzzle solving action.

Kill yourself and hit space bar. You'll start the level again with full health and a pistol with 50 bullets. There's a single-barrel in one of the alcoves if you head left and a chaingun in the thumb if you head right. There's an arrow on the map pointing towards a secret plasma rifle.

>Do you just run around shooting shit for no real reason?
Does 'surviving the level' count as a real reason? You need to reach the exit and fuck shit up on the way. Just like you stomp Goombas and Koopas in Super Mario Bros.
>>
>>338152268
I was actually thinking about this today but I cannot remember the name of it.

>>338152523
Wolf3D is legitimately a mixed bag, though. The enemy variety is pretty much nonexistant, you have no reason to use anything but the rifle except against bosses, and half of the levels are utter shit.

The chain gun is behind some walls, I figured there was a switch I'm missing. I've found the plasma gun.

Game design was always top notch for whatever the developers had to work with at the time. This "game has aged" meme is completely untrue. The reason little kids dont enjoy old games is not because theyre not fun compared to games today, it's because theyve been conditioned with certain things in new games that if the old ones dont have those things they automatically perceive them as inferior. Let a kid's first games be old games and he'll grow up enjoying old and new games equally.

No. Total bullshit

DOOM is much more fun than 90% of the games released today. Trying to play modern shooters with incredibly slow movement speed, shitty, uncreative weapons and contrived storylines is a fucking chore compared to the smooth, fast paced raw action of DOOM. It is objectively fun. The only reason kids don't like it is because of the graphics.

You don't need to look up, faggot. The levels are designed that way. This is why underagers can't get into old games, they have ridiculously shitty attention spans. All you have to do is download a good source port and configure it and youll be able to play it with wasd and mouseturning and yes, if you're really that cancerous or playing with custom maps, you can enable vertical mouselook on the source ports.

To be quite honest familia many consider the first doom as a snore fest. Not even joking, a lot of people in /vr/ think this way including me. The fun really starts in episode 4 from ultimate doom, thy flesh consumed, and doom 2 is kind of fun, some levels are utter shit but overall it's definitely more challenging than the original. The best official doom is the plutonia experiment from final doom.

I enjoyed Disruptor, too. It also has a few little pieces of trivia I found amusing. The guy who plays the main character once hosted a game show on Nickelodeon, and the vests the soldiers wear are the same ones the "androids" wore in the movie "Future War", which was featured on MST3K.

Think of Doom as a topdown game like Hotline Miami. Enemies and you are on a single 2D plane. Their height is just visuals. That's why looking up doesn't matter.

>>338156283
Get a source port, like ZDoom or GZDoom. They let you turn on full mouselook and customize the controls any way you want. I won't tell you that's not the right way to play, because I prefer having mouselook as well. The only potential problem is that source ports also include a jump button, and the levels were originally designed without jumping in mind, so jumping can occasionally let you skip whole parts of a level.

OK lads I'm in the mood for some classic DOOM but I don't know what version to get. I know KB+M is superior for FPS games but I want to slouch and use a controller. What's the "ultimate" DOOM setup that can give me hours of DOOM action and maximum comfy at the same time?
>>
>>338156760
>custom maps
You know, I'm curious: What percentage of custom maps are designed around the player having mouselook and the ability to jump? I'm always unsure about that when I play custom levels and it looks like jumping would solve my problem, but I'm not sure if that's what I'm supposed to do or if it would be cheating.

In some instances playing with freelook and with autoaim off is actually MORE difficult than vanilla. It can get hard to direct hit a caco with the rocketlauncher because they zig and zag so much

I love vanilla gameplay, but I gotta look up and down.

That only because its kinda bland, well designed, but nothing really stands out. Its custom levels that do crazy shit and do it well that are top tier.

OP you're a fucking faggot. I'd never played a Doom game so I got OG Doom yesterday and beat it today and I have to say it's one of the most purely FUN games I've ever played. Once I changed controls to WASD and made A+D strafe instead of turn the game became pure bliss
