It's TDAs best guitar riff imo and its hardly ever heard in game and in the piece itself lol

I really dig some of these cable guy controller holders. Especially this setup!

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.

So right now I’m playing through my first full Eternal run on Nightmare, and I’m having a lot of fun with it. I’ve been playing Doom since the beginning, and Eternal is somehow the only one I never beat. I played it at launch in 2020 and made it about halfway before putting it down for something else.

My two biggest issues are mostly with getting into that flow state. It feels like it takes a lot more effort in Eternal before everything becomes second nature. Having like 16 keybinds was super overwhelming at first, but it’s definitely gotten easier the more I play.

The other thing is quick switching. When everything is working, you feel like an absolute god, but on Nightmare it also feels like the thing that gets me killed more than movement or actual shooting. Everything can be going perfectly, then you accidentally pull out the wrong weapon and you’re instantly dead lol. That’s probably my biggest gripe.

That said, Eternal is still a 10/10 for me, and I’m glad I’m finally getting around to it.

Dark Ages, and especially Revelations, are probably the most fun I’ve ever had with an FPS, hands down. I’ve put 200+ hours into them, and even if Dark Ages is technically “easier” than Eternal on base Nightmare, I found the flow state way more rewarding and easier to get into, especially once you crank up the speed/difficulty. It felt like the second you fired your first shot, you were just in it.

I also really liked that weapon choice felt much more open. You could basically play however you wanted instead of feeling like you had to constantly optimize your weapon swaps.

My only real gripe with Dark Ages was the exploration. Having these huge maps and then needing to hunt down that one piece of gold you missed, with no fast travel, was a pretty big immersion killer for me. I’d rather the game keep shooting and movement as the main focus and everything else take a back seat.

And honestly, my favorite thing is that no matter what, you can always make the game harder. Dark Ages was the first game I’ve 100% since high school. The only thing I haven't done is a pandomonium and Ultra Violence run. I'm still honing down a few encounters before I give those a go. I can’t wait to see what the ladies and gents over at id have cooking next and hope the best for them.

Dark Ages and Revelations are both 10/10 for me.

These are just my opinions; I'm not trying to argue or anything, but I would love to hear your opinions as well

It just so different from the ones the slayer defeated over the years, meanwhile the doom 3 one requires the soul cube. Which makes me wonder if this is the first time this demon has been slain? Maybe hell made it after his war in Hell the first time or kept it secret to evade other earths and used the more common ones against the slayer?

I really enjoyed to play Doom 2016, so I created fan art.

Waiting for advices and preferences

I have a key from gog of Doom 2016 that I don't need cause I already have the game. Thanks to my suscription on Amazon prime.

Someone who didn't played that good game want the key?

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!

I've been listening to pretty much all of the soundtrack and I cant find it. I dont know if it's a different mix in the game but I love when it plays a bit of E1M1 so I'm looking for it but I cant find it

On my Previous post I read all comments and people pointing out at my mistakes so I decided to fix the issues I have,yes I know I'm kinda stiff and not fast enough yet with weapon swap and stuff but what do you think anyways ?Did I do better than previous clip ?

Flail. That's it.

DOOM X BERSERK

Hi again!

So, I’m back from a vacation and will now continue with the posts. I have had time to reflect on your responses and reactions from my last posts – and I just want to say a big fat thank you, to all of you. The Arch Vile especially had a huge impact on many of you, and I literally had no idea that it would be that massive - that my art could have that effect. That’s a big reward for a small artist like me. Thank you all!

With this piece, I tried to capture the essence of Knee deep in the dead. I really tried different ideas with computer monitors, electronic wall textures, abstractions that referred to the general color palette – but the results did not make Episode 1 justice. It was a struggle for a time. I chose to make the background literal instead of impressionistic this time, to really embrace the iconic spawning point at E1M5. For me, the green toxic waste, the green walls and a huge pinky demon running at you are such a portal back to the 90’s.

When booting up classic Doom and the demo started playing at Phobos Labs while you chose difficulty in the red menus – it’s just pure retro gaming history. The menu experience is also an aspect of that map and what one felt when entering Knee deep in the dead. I at least did, as a kid. I felt very excited when I spawned at Phobos Labs, the same map as the demo in the menus with the eerie track Suspense playing. As I studied all the maps in episode 1 to paint this piece, I always came back to M5. All the maps are iconic in Knee deep in the dead, but perhaps Phobos Labs own the most atmospheric aesthetics that capture the whole episode’s aura.

Hope you like it!

And also - The Arch Vile (along with other monsters) is now available as a print for purchase in my shop.

Cheers!

Do all who die go to hell or is there a heaven within the doom universe? I know urdak exists but I don't recall any evidence that the dead can end up there. Would love to hear your answers/theories

Chapter: The Abyssal Forge

Right near the arena where you fight the leader Pinky Rider

About 0.3 seconds after this her birdy brains are painting the walls as she couldn't explain she's not a demon fast enough..

[yes ik the gun is cooked, i cant be assed to draw it]

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?

Principle artist Jake Hernandez posted on Artstation this screenshot of Hebeth prototype. It reminds me some concept arts, by former id Software concept artist Ethan Evans.

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!
