Dirk Posted June 17, 2018 As blasphemous as it might sound, I've found that I don't enjoy most "pure" Doom mods (exception that proves the rule: I loved BTSX until about halfway through, and then I gave up on it when I found myself hopelessly lost in the maps). By contrast, I love projects like Urban Brawl, Golden Souls, the two Wool Ball projects, and Project Einherjar. I've also enjoyed re-conceptualizations like Stronghold and Skulldash. Are there any other total conversions or other such projects that I should look into? 1 Share this post Link to post
FrancisT218 Posted June 17, 2018 Adventures of Square, Winter's Fury, and Pirate DooM. 8 Share this post Link to post
m8f Posted June 17, 2018 The Inquisitor III, Super Sonic DooM, Hocusdoom, Castlevania - Simon's Destiny. Also Netronian Chaos, though it doesn't contain maps. 1 Share this post Link to post
DeadAstronaut Posted June 17, 2018 Try Doom 64: Retribution. It uses all the wonders of GZDoom's lighting effects and has tons of bonus content. 0 Share this post Link to post
gaspe Posted June 17, 2018 Winter's Fury (it's very cool but short), Temple of the Lizardmen series (a bit uneven but there are 4 wads to play). 0 Share this post Link to post

scalliano Posted June 22, 2018 Legacy of Suffering. Be warned though, while the aesthetic is very Doom3-insipred, the gameplay is very much Painkiller. Community is Falling 3. Immature, puerile, hilarious, brutally hard and one of the biggest, most ambitious undertakings ever to grace the ZDoom engine. It's basically the PC version of PO'ed. And while I also recommend Winter's Fury, be advised that it's pretty taxing on hardware. 1 Share this post Link to post

Are there any other total conversions or other such projects that I should look into? Aliens TC: The original is still a damn fine DeHackEd TC. Aliens: Colonial Marines: This one looks more modern but it's also shorter. Strange Aeons: From the same guy who did Einherjar. Five (!) episodes of weird, Lovecraft-inspired wandering. Bigger emphasis on his Dream cycle but Cthulhu sneaks in there at the very end. Return of the Triad: RotT-themed but not styled. Gorgeous architecture, ludicrous gibs. Gene-Tech: A prequel to Quake II staged at a biotech lab on Earth before the invasion. Heavy use of models. Adventures of Square: Modern retro-flavored FPS with geometric puns. The second episode came out not too long ago! I haven't played it yet. Mayhem Mansion: Somewhere between one of those horrid early-90s adventure games rendered through CGI and those ugly as sin Pie in the Sky FPS games and way better than it has any right to be. Provided you don't mind trying to wrap your brain around an acid freakout. Hacx: Cyberpunk. Batman Doom: Another damn fine DeHackEd TC. Don't fail to fight Bane with your fists! Twilight Warrior: Trying to turn Doom into Black Ops. Not as successful as many of the other TCs. Chosen: Egyptian-themed TC. Temple of the Lizard Men: There are four of these. Between the first three, I think I like the second the most. The third has an epic scope but it feels like there's a lot of padding. Sort of Indiana Jones-type serials meet Sword and Sorcery. Star Wars: Chibi Rebellion: It's Star Wars but cute and funny and less focused on gritty combat and more enjoying goofy stuff. Each "mission" is built out of random maps (but the individual parts don't repeat until you've seen them all) and there are some fantastic things to see. Unhinged: Doom weapons, yes. Doom monsters, no. One single and very creepy level (but no screamers!) The Inquisitor III: First person action RPG. Play it on a lower difficulty; UV ain't worth it. Encrypter: A short and simple Heretic TC. 7 Share this post Link to post

Doomarineactivated Posted July 27, 2018 Alien invasion. It would be awesome. Here's a few new enemies: Zombieman=Mind Controlled Human Shotgunguy=Same, but with an Alien shotgun Chaingunguy=Same, but with an Alien chain gun Imp:Alien that throws green Plasma balls Hell Knight:Alien with special armor, throws green Plasma Baron=Alien in Mech Suit, shoots bullets from 2 guns Pinky=4 armed Alien creature Spectre=Same, but invisible Arch-Vile=Alien Shaman, instead of fire it summons mystical purple energy Mancubus=Alien that has an energy cleaver Cacodemon=Floating robot, shoots rockets Cyberdemon=A cyber Alien, same attacks, just with Plasma Arachnotron=The head is blue instead of red, basically the same Spider Mastermind=Same, head is blue and shoots rockets and Plasma Weapons: Fists=Alien wrist gauntlet Pistol=Plasma Pistol Shotgun=Alien rifle, not a shotgun, but is completely replaced Minigun=Alien minigun, shoots Plasma Rocket Launcher=Alien Rocket Launcher, still shoots rockets Super Shotgun=Alien shotgun, shoots Plasma Plasma Rifle=Same, but green BFG=Is a cube, but when you switch to it it folds out, revealing a BFG, same look Story: You are a Space Marine, and now its your job to send the Aliens that are invading back to the hole they came out of. It should be a Doom 2 mod. 0 Share this post Link to post
Pepper.Roni Posted March 14, 2019 Nobody mentioned Ashes 2063 yet. It only has one episode so far, but damn that was one of the best TC's I ever played. Someone else also made a short add on campaign sanctioned by the creator. It's also good but it doesn't quite match up to the original imo. check it out. 1 Share this post Link to post
elend Posted March 14, 2019 For a completely different feeling also check out Blade of Agony, which is basically not Doom anymore, because you walk slow, you have to reload and JFC, what a great TC it actually is. 0 Share this post Link to post
nrofl Posted March 14, 2019 (edited) DooMRPG is a really cool experience. Unfortunately I cant get it to run though but what I've seen it looks nothing but fantastic. EDIT: Oh wait thats not really a TC... Hey I can recommend Aliens TC from '94 and the 2017 remaster. I feel the 2017 remaster is highly underrated. 0 Share this post Link to post

Don't forget that BoA is not technically finished yet. I think the developers still have 2 more episodes to go, if I'm not mistaken... 2 Share this post Link to post
TheNoob_Gamer Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) Does The Crystal Maze count? @m8f A short WAD containing 5 maps (IIRC) was made by the author of that mod and another guy later on, so combined the mod and the wad maybe also count as a 'TC'. 0 Share this post Link to post
