Discussion Finally went back to ‘Doom The Dark Ages’ to play the ‘Revelations’ DLC and it is absolutely brilliant 10/10 !!

Making what was already a great experience even better, Eternal was always my favourite but now I’m not so sure, Revelations brings the mobility and frantic action back to the forefront and the ‘Finishing Move’ score… insane 🤘🏻🤘🏻 Glad to have reclaimed my 100% completion as well!

Discussion Decided to do some research on Doomguy’s military past Spoiler

Post image
• Upvotes

To be clear, I’m talking about in-game lore, not the novels.

Recently replayed Revelations and I noticed that the higher-up Flynn was talking to assured him that there were no civilians inside, that was obviously a fucking lie.

So I decided to do some research on his time in MARSOC pre-invasion and wow, the guy that ordered him to blow up the hospital is easily one of my most hated characters in the entire series.
The guy Flynn was talking to was Lieutenant Joshua Weems, a “nepo-baby”. Apparently, Weems’ father was in a very high position to cover Joshua’s mistakes, making him very corrupt.

Weems was absolutely hell bent on trying to get Flynn out because not only did they just resent each other, Flynn also embarrassed the shit out of him because of how incompetent he was.
The whole hospital incident was what pushes Flynn over the edge though.

He was assured that no innocent people were inside, yet, he ended up accidentally killing innocent civilians, and Weems knew damn well about the civilians inside.
Due to Joshua’s negligence and incompetence, Flynn (understandably) hit him which led to a ma named Colonel Mercer requesting a court-martial for both of them.
Joshua didn’t face punishment though, his father completely altered military records to blame Flynn for everything.
But Colonel Mercer being a decent person, cleared Flynn of all the homicide charges.
But he couldn’t drop the assault charges after hitting Weems. So as a punishment, he was sent to Mars which is where his story as a demon killer started.

Anyway, I just thought this was cool and decided to share in case anyone was interested or missed the information in the game.

If beloved series like Resident Evil, Final Fantasy, and Metal Gear can get critically acclaimed remakes, why is it a popular sentiment that Doom shouldn't get a remake?

Question A little help Slayers?

• Upvotes

So, tldr, I finished both Eternal and Dark Ages in Ultra-Violence but I want to tackle higher challenges and learn the games' tricks and tech.

Dark Ages felt MUCH easier than Eternal but whenever I died it felt fair. Like i missed a parry timing for example and got punished for it.

In Eternal most of my deaths infuriated me. Getting stuck in geometry after a glory kill, my character swapping automatically to a different weapon than I had after a glory kill, enemies zooming into me while doing a glory kill with me not seeing it etc. and once they are in melee range they body block or hit me way too much for me to escape etc.

So Im asking about Eternal specifically because it feels like the higher skill ceiling game of the two, how do I alleviate those issues and get better?

Help Link for the original Doom (1993) steam page?

I can't find it. Saw this image on the sub, this is exactly what I want. Went to Steamdb and it doesn't exist. Went to the way back machine and the doom I + doom II version only shows up in 2024 and after so it was not updated from that one.

Is there a steam page for the original game still?

Thank you!

Question May someone please tell me how to hook up DOOM total conversions like Divine Frequency and CountryCide with DoomRunner?

2 Upvotes

I have set up DoomRunner on Steam as a Non-Steam game, and I am trying to expand my catalogue beyond merely the GZDoom version of the OG's (DOOM, DOOM II, Plutonia Experiment, Evilution, Master Levels, LoR, Sigil, Sigil 2, etc), map packs like Eviternity, and mods like Project Brutality to include Total Conversions like the two aforementioned TC (Divine Frequency & CountryCide) I am also open to mod/map pack/total conversion suggestions. I am at a very difficult stage in my life, and DOOM, modding DOOM especially, is bringing me comfort and joy. Cheers, and many thanks to all who answer!

Discussion What's your method for changing weapons?

4 Upvotes

I started with the original Doom so I still have a habit of pressing the number keys. In Quake, scrolling the mouse was viable because the weapon switched instantly.

In the modern Doom games, the options are either number keys (briefly removes the ability to strafe, and too slow), scrolling the mouse wheel (too easy to get the wrong one) or holding Q (too clunky).

As it is, I hardly ever change weapons mid-fight, and that's not the best. How can I train myself to switch weapons quickly and accurately without having to think about it?

Showcase Is there anything better than playing Dos-version Doom 2 (also Doom 1) with original layout and with Doom-keyboard!

Only thing better would be playing with 90’s computer with original actual Dos, even this game is the exact same. I play with keyboard only, not mouse used. This keyboard is Ducky x Doom, made 666 units for ISO and 666 units for ANSI. I have two of these, both ISO.
