Katamori Posted May 15, 2013 Which are the WADs that you'd watch on Youtube in a Let's Play video series? Also, which are that would even make any sense? For example, I wouldn't play Alien Vendetta, because even though the quality of maps is outstanding, the whole thing is too long and a lot of videos are already made about it. I'd rather play some WADs that has no videos about on Youtube yet. Good subjects: Aliens TC All SLIGE'd Up (done) Baker's Dozen Combat Shock 2 Earth Epic Equinox Hadephobia Jenesis Lunatic Phobos Revolution! Suspended in Dusk UAC Ultra Unloved Vanguard Winter's Fury Not so good but still potiential subjects: Alien Vendetta Back to Saturn X Doom 2 Unleashed Epic 2 Eternal Doom Icarus Alien Vanguard Whispers of Satan Any other suggestions? EDIT: I gather every recommendations, so feel free to use this list if you also want some videos! 0 Share this post Link to post
mrthejoshmon Posted May 15, 2013 I would say ICARUS AV or Eternal doom but I think they have been done... How about the PSX TC or (if you can find it) NRFTL? EDIT: Aliens TC is also fun when mixed with the right music 0 Share this post Link to post
Cacowad Posted May 15, 2013 basically those: http://www.doomworld.com/vb/wads-mods/64259-heavily-plot-oriented-wads/ would be interesting to see a video series about those wads, expecially strange ones like cif3 or unloved. 0 Share this post Link to post
schwerpunk Posted May 15, 2013 I wouldn't mind seeing you add to your "Short WADs" playlist. Just pluck whatever looks interesting to you from the community at large. It doesn't matter to me if there's any relation between one video and the next. I watch these videos for the commentary, so you could be playing a complete turd and I would still probably enjoy it. :) Speaking of Megawads, I would love to see your thoughts on Death Egg's Switcheroom! project. But that isn't finished yet, unfortunately. P.S. Oh! Have you thought of having a guest over, like you mentioned Antroid doing - maybe have Antroid himself via Skype! 0 Share this post Link to post
Suitepee Posted May 15, 2013 I'm going to LP both Switcheroom and the Monochrome Mapping Project when they release (hopefully this month), so perhaps you could join me in being among the first to LP those? Other than that this wad looks quite interesting to cover I guess: http://www.doomworld.com/vb/wads-mods/60067-pirate-doom-wip-gzdoom-pwad-map-12-baron-castle/ 0 Share this post Link to post
Katamori Posted May 15, 2013 This time, my choice is Earth, this WAD will come after UT&T, but still feel free to recommend anything! mrthejoshmon: Icarus has a lot of videos already on Youtube, but maybe I'll decide it later. AV won't happen, as I wrote it in the first post. Eternal Doom would be good, but this is way too hard and long for me yet, and no one would watch me playing that through a year... NRFTL also has a lot of videos. PSX TC is not for me. Aliens TC sounds good. joe-ilya: Whispers of Satan also has a lot of videos already, but maybe I'll play it one day. schwerpunk: I'll continue "ZDaemon Playing Events" series one day, with someone. =) Suitepee: With Pirate Doom, I'd like to wait 'til the final release. 0 Share this post Link to post
mrthejoshmon Posted May 15, 2013 I do remember playing a megawad called Jenesis, I don't see much videos of it either. Its a difficult one, too difficult for me (I could not get past map04 because I suck :P) but the little I have survived looks and plays good. Or you could try some of the recent wads at /idgames (or at least the good ones) as it is rare I see a video on any recent wads (or at least the good ones). 0 Share this post Link to post

That wad is fun , and I'm not sure about the difficulty. The first 22(yep the secret maps too)are quite medium or hard , but not hardcore. I will get to finish the rest later. Playing the master levels for doom is actually fun , not sure if you played it , Katamori. 0 Share this post Link to post
Katamori Posted May 15, 2013 Oh yes, Jenesis also sounds good! I just forgot that somehow. 0 Share this post Link to post
Katamori Posted May 16, 2013 Winter's Fury has a complete walkthrough already, made by Larzuk06, but I'd play that too. Unloved is the same. Maybe that hasn't as many videos about. 0 Share this post Link to post
Obsidian Posted May 16, 2013 Sunder. :P Just being silly. I haven't seen much videos of Epic by Eternal, and it's only 5 maps long. Maybe something to ease the pressure of doing megawads all the time. :) 0 Share this post Link to post
A.Gamma Posted May 16, 2013 Hadephobia, because obviously you know nothing of Hadephobia (nor any map was made by you)! On a more serious note, what about TVR? Sure visuals have not aged that well but it is still fun to play. There's also BTSX, you can never have enough BTSX. And if you don't want megawads you can try UAC Ultra. Or Vanguard. 0 Share this post Link to post
schwerpunk Posted May 16, 2013 Ooh, Unloved was good. Although be warned, I think it requires jumping. Got stuck way too long before realising that. regardless of if you make an LP of it, you should definitely play it if you haven't already. 0 Share this post Link to post

Larzuk already made Hadephobia, but I may do that in the future, for the obvious reasons you mentioned :P (there was a bit hard to get the irony :D) TVR is one of the best megawads of all time, thanks for mentioning! I completely forgot that because I didn't play that for 2 years... BTSX isn't finished sadly, but not a bad idea. UAC Ultra & Vanguard also sounds great! EDIT: thank you too, Obsidian! You are very enthusiastic with my videos =) 0 Share this post Link to post

Then you should make a Hadephobia Let's Play! I mean, you know the WAD better than all of us, and hearing your thoughts on each and every level while we see you playing will definitely be interesting. 0 Share this post Link to post
purist Posted May 17, 2013 I thought of doing that but I have no experience in LP'ing so it would basically be an amateurish audio version of my DW MW Club comments. Plus I'd have to expose my inadequate Doom skills. 0 Share this post Link to post
schwerpunk Posted May 17, 2013 Suspended in Dusk (SiD) - I just started playing this set of four large levels, and have been impressed from the beginning with its detailing and texturing, but most of all, its secrets. Like, OMG, if you enjoy complex, well-hidden, and highly elaborate secrets, you'll get a huge kick out of SiD's. 0 Share this post Link to post

Keeper of Jericho Posted May 18, 2013 Doom 2 Unleashed (aka Pcorf's Community Project). You barely hear anyone mentioning that one nowadays, and only a few maps have vids on Youtube. 0 Share this post Link to post

Don't worry, I know that! Actually, my first attempt to make an english LP Doom video was D2 Unleashed, but that was so bad that I deleted the recorded stuff. Not my taste but good potential. 0 Share this post Link to post

You know, I don't have a good memory, but I have a lot of WADs including several less good ones, so I can forget my favourites easily. I haven't played NeoDoom for one at least 2 years, for example! 0 Share this post Link to post
