What Doom (1993) Could Have Been Like 

Definitely adds to the authenticity of a military briefing....

actually the entire intro was pure satirical gold. 💀 i’ve only barely showed a few moments of it.

@@rainysshorts1475 Bro I own this, I need to play it now 😭

@@NordicDan Loool no. Any soldier doing that in front of a superior officer during a briefing would be buried beneath the brig.

@@mnomadvfx Depends on the briefing. I've been in formation with a brief being given by senior officers and in those cases you're right, but in most I've been in, even with lower officers and most senior enlisted, it wasn't uncommon to hear things being blurted out.

appreciate the heads-up!

That modern tech is 20 years old now

@@fg42ghg ehhh. Graphics like 2012-2008. Say 15. It's closer to DOOM 3

@@owlstock679…which came out 20 years ago

@@barbedwirealarms exactly

it’s the Classic Doom 3 mod for Doom 3.

Classic Doom 3

@@rainysshorts1475 Thanks

though honestly the old Doom had the same problem, most fantasy shooters do. Maybe games that try to somewhat mimic real life like GTA or Red Dead Redemption are a bit of an exception.

That's not the point, the point was that Doom would have most certainly looked something like this if they had the tech that currently exists.

well the point was based on a couple of interviews with id’s developers you can notice that they would have definitely went for more of a horror shooter like Doom 3 if they had the technology for that rather than making a boomer shooter sort of game. As said by John Carmack - "We didn't have the technology to do what we wanted with shadows and lighting and so on, so we ended up making everything really brightly lit.” as well as “We couldn’t do subtlety, so we just doubled down on action.” and this is said by John Romero and it focuses more on level-design “The limitations of the hardware of the time influenced everything. The lack of texture mapping meant the levels had to be designed differently, which led to Doom’s abstract, modular, and maze-like levels.” either way, all this makes me believe that yeah, Doom would have looked very different if they had the tech needed to pull of a horror game like they did Doom 3. Also this is probably the closest we will ever see what Id actually had in mind for Doom, that’s why i came up with the title and description.

@@rainysshorts1475 Yeah, I remember those articles and interview) Still, not a fan of everything based on Doom 3 (including Quake 4) mechanics, if it's not D3) BTW, they did a "real classic Doom horror" in Playstation version of Doom and in Doom 64, still one of the best FPS games and Doom version IMO, combining both classic fast-paced action and horror vibes.

@@J0rdan912 oh yeah, i knew about Doom 64 but about the PS1 i checked it out and that's pretty cool

@@rainysshorts1475 PS1 Doom contains all base games and expansions while using similar pre-Doom 64 "horror" redesign. Must have for Doom fans. I recommend to find community made modified version of PSX Doom that includes all bonus and cut levels with all types of improvements, there should be both PC total conversion and the actual PS1 modified versions.

yeah the shotgun spread requires you to basically shove your gun up their face which leads to a terrible experience with the shotgun opposite of what Doom 1-2 had.
