Opinions?

Feels like a strange bridge between DOOM 2 and 3 to me, gameplay is mostly the classic run n gun but level design is more... I don't know, mean? with more switch puzzles and timing than 1 and 2 emphasized and everything is dark and brown. The music is obviously the biggest change. Some people love it and I can dig the atmosphere but it doesn't feel right for me, I can't rip and tear to this. I don't want the whole soundtrack to be e1m2 fucking a haunted fax machine in my demon murdersim
>>
>he plays doom for the music

quit being a faggot, play quake instead
>>
>>339227946
Aubrey Hodges did the music for Final Doom on the PS1 before this game was made. Final Doom tried doing the creepy atmosphere thing, but with all the original Doom levels. Doom 64 is at least built around the gloomy level design and music.
>>
Soundtrack was fucking awful just like Doom ps1 port

This was one of my first games on N64, must have been like 10 years old at the time. I didn't have any perspective from the previous titles at the time and because of that this has always been my favorite game in the series. I fucking love Doom 1/2, but 64 will always have top place in my heart.
>>
The music in Doom 64 is fucking awesome

This fucking retard doesn't even realise Doom 64 is a completely different game.
>>
>>339227946
are you playing the "fixed" pc version?
>>
>>339227946
Pretty good but the missing monsters ruins its potential
>>
>>339229217
yeah. Can't seem to get it above 1080p from the launcher either and no resolution option in the config
>>
>>339229340
Just change the res from ingame m8
>>
>>339229643
ah, I was an idiot an assumed he left the options menu alone and useless like it would be in an n64 game
>>
>>339229217
how do you play it on the pc? I used to have the N64 version a long while back so would be nice revisit this.

after all these years I haven't found a simple mashup WAD that drops all the new DOOM 2 elements, the monsters and the SS into the 1 campaign

why is this so?

Time to marathon it or install a 32 bit OS and see if it'll work.
>>
>>339231448

Archviles are perfectly fine as long as they give you some fucking cover.
>>
Love Doom 1/2, but this was the first one I played so it has a huge nostalgic bias for me despite it's issues. Love some of the puzzles and the final boss though.
>>
>>339231356
There was literally nothing wrong at all with 64's map design, but at least 64 didn't pull any shit like that barrel level in 2.
>>
>>339230182
You're saying you want Doom 1 levels in Doom 2? Probably cause you could probably just do that yourself easily.
>>
>>339231448
I can tolerate chain gunners, but arch-viles were genuinely bullshit enemies anyway.

It had some of the best monster redesigns, shame the arachnotron isn't in NuDOOM
>>
>>339227946
>>339228890
How come there were such hardcore games on Nintendo's console, but now they dont have shit?
>>
The only thing I hate about Archviles is if you run behind cover and then come out of it before they stop their stupid animation, their attack tracks right back on you.

It should just be a miss for them if you get behind cover before the attack animation finishes.
>>
>>339233050
It will be in the expansions I assume, I can understand not having them in the game before the Spider Mastermind since it kind of lessens the impact of it.
>>
>>339233217
Why would you leave cover in the first place?
>>
>>339232936
>passwords

Get a load of this guy.
>>
>>339233186

Because Playstation was starting to hurt them, they had to suck a lot of cock to get on id's good side. Not only did they shit on them openly when they discovered side scrolling for PC, they also butchered Doom on the snes. Tired of Nintendo's shit, they gave out the source code so that a christian game company could release Noah's ark on the Snes.
>>
>>339233423
Either i misjudge when the animation is finished or some nigger lost soul or something creeps up on me while my ass is planted behind coverand I instinctively take off.

Also basically anything that promotes taking cover and not dodging attacks is bad.
>>
>>339233538
>they also butchered Doom on the snes
Not really, the SNES just wasn't meant to handle Doom period

The fact that they managed to make it what it was at all is a technical fucking absolute miracle really
>>
>>339233217

Too easy
>>
>>339233605
It just sounds like a case of gitgud then
>>
>>339233538
Makes sense. Hope id improves the current doom with more updates, especially for the snapmaps. It has good potential
>>
>>339233670

Even so, id was not amused, hence why the Noah's Ark on the Snes.
>>
I played it, original Doom and 2 not so long ago

64 is my favorite. Level design seems actually done by professionals
>>
>>339235084
Yeah, Doom 64's level design was actually top notch. No idea where this awful meme that it actually has shit level design came from.
>>
>>339233538
>Not only did they shit on them openly when they discovered side scrolling for PC
All they did was say they weren't interested in a PC port of Mario 3 which after Super Mario Bros Special, was completely understandable. They didn't try to prevent them from using the tech they used to clone Mario 3 or anything, they just declined to hand id their most profitable franchise.
>>
its good

Hexen is the best game running on Doom's engine, bar none.
>>
>>339235939
I unironically like it more than the first Doom desu.

Probably from faggots whose first Doom was either 3 or 4.

There's literally no reason to play Absolution when EX exists.
>>
>>339227946
>Feels like a strange bridge between DOOM 2 and 3 to me
You're almost right, it was more of a proto-Quake with doom elements. Still a really good addition to the series, and everything is kind of color coded, so of course you'd think everything is brown if you get stuck on the first level.
>>
>>339233538
>they had to suck a lot of cock to get on id's good side
Of course not, the PS1 simply couldn't handle either of those games.
>>
>>339237395
less hassle/fiddling for noobs. Just install and it's ready to play

Final Dooms soundtrack was fucking goat you mongoloid rectal tongue journeyman

There's two reasons I can think of right there.

EX is simple you mong

less clicks = easier to start for noobs.

Nonsensical "puzzle" out of nowhere.

Great game and still spooky as shit
>>
>>339240183
but that's the whole thing with the puzzles in original doom, as well
>>
>>339233538
Noah's Ark had nothing to do with DOOM, you dummy. It was because id got pissed at Nintendo for censoring Wolfenstein 3D on the SNES, so they gave Wisdom Tree the code for spite.
>>
>>339227946
breddy gud :D
>>
>>339240438
It's "stand on some totally random floor sector outside of the room to get the key" kind of puzzle. This shit is the worst.
>>
>>339228890
>>339227946

Owned both of these to be quite honest. Aside from PS1 DOOM, they were my only exposure to FPS games.
>>
How is final doom?
