I already liked and subscribed haha. Very entertaining video as usual, please keep going. Yes, that's exactly what I love about Doom. Everyone has its own way of playing it, some do glides or AVJ runs, others do short demos, strollers, Tysons, respawns, nightmare runs etc. Combine this with the thousands of levels available, add the RNG spice, and the game is just infinite. Of course life is perpetual evolution, but for now I can't see myself abandoning Doom. And happy belated birthday ! Mine was eight days ago, so we may have the same birthday 🤔
I'd be interested in a video on the advanced HUD. Because I am of the opinion that it is the single biggest advantage that us newer runners have over the OG runners. The fact that Xit still uses the exe is wild to me. Dude is a machine.
You know, source ports are cool and all, but the original is quite a different experience. Of course, a lot of modern enhancements is what the best players would have invested in back in the day. (a stopwatch by your side, counting stats in your head, a dot on your monitor if you had trouble lining up shots, dos kludges for autorun and disabling vmm etc) I sometimes wonder if the same could be said for some other gameplay enhancements. (though most are of course inconsequential if we are focusing on speedrunning. This is my mapper brain talking)
