Maser Posted July 22, 2018 Oh hands down Doom 2. It's 0900 right now and I'm drinking beer and playing Doom 2 and currently getting my ass handed to me by Arachnotrons on the map "Downtown". 3 Share this post Link to post
Cruduxy Pegg Posted July 22, 2018 Final Doom aka Plutonia + TNT. Basically doom 2 with better maps. 4 Share this post Link to post
Bauul Posted July 22, 2018 I always struggle with this question because in my mind the order goes: E1 > Doom 2 > E2 > E3 > (>>>>>>) E4. So I guess Doom 2, but that feels wrong to discount just how good E1 is. 3 Share this post Link to post
FeverDreamer Posted July 22, 2018 Doom II. I prefer final doom with the map design, but nothing beats going up against the Icon of Sin in Doom II 1 Share this post Link to post
no longer being used Posted July 22, 2018 (edited) Freedoom is my favorite, both phases. It feels so different compared to doom. The soundtrack is very reminiscent of megaman, the art looks great, and really just everything about it is great. 0 Share this post Link to post

Bauul Posted July 22, 2018 57 minutes ago, Aquila Chrysaetos said: E4 > Doom II > E1 > E2 > E3. Fight me. I know I'm unique in this, but I just don't like E4. From the meaningless map names to the total lack of a coherent feeling of "place", it seems like an episode of random levels just chucked in together. They're not bad maps at all, but as a thematic continuation of the Doom experience, it just doesn't work that well. 0 Share this post Link to post
Aquila Chrysaetos Posted July 22, 2018 I felt E4 was intended to be its own thing, and I thought it accomplished that pretty well. I do, however, agree with you that there isn't a real sense of place and it doesn't make sense as a continuation of Doom. Had it been released as a standalone with maybe about 12 maps, I think it might've been received a little better. 1 Share this post Link to post
DMPhobos Posted July 22, 2018 E2 > E1 > Doom 2 > E3 > E4 Yes, i like E2 more than E1, shores of hell has always been my favorite episode of doom, Doom 2 has some very bad levels (*COUGH* nirvana *COUGH*) and others that i dislike but overall it has a higher quality than Inferno, not to mention it introduced some classic monsters, as for Thy Flesh Consumed... i don't like it that much, can't put my finger on it, but it feels odd when compared with the other 3 episodes. Feels kinda inconsistent 1 Share this post Link to post
SGS Man Posted July 22, 2018 (edited) My order would be Plutonia >= E1 > E3 > Doom 2 >= E4 > E2 >(>>>>) TNT. But all are pretty good. Plutonia and E1 are consistently great and reach the top of my list because of that. E3, Doom 2, and E4 are also good but their quality does vary quite a bit. E2 is alright, since it's mostly just decent with a few standouts. TNT is at the bottom since some maps are downright terrible. Haven't played Freedoom enough to have an opinion on it. 0 Share this post Link to post
Mr. Freeze Posted July 22, 2018 The Ultimate Doom. Better level design than Doom 2, better weapon balance too. 0 Share this post Link to post
Cruduxy Pegg Posted July 22, 2018 Oh yea having everything except the average weapon vs weaker monsters makes it much more balanced. 0 Share this post Link to post
Chezza Posted July 22, 2018 Doom 2 only for the SSG and added monsters. It does have some very memorable levels too. 0 Share this post Link to post
Asure Posted July 22, 2018 (edited) What I think about people who chosen Doom 2 and didn't wrote a reason: just because it has the super shotgun and "new" monsters Plutonia/E1 > E4 > E2 > D2 > E3 > TNT Edited July 23, 2018 by Phoenix Wright : Deleted my shitty reasoning 0 Share this post Link to post
AD_79 Posted July 22, 2018 (edited) ok here we go Plutonia > Doom 2 > TNT >>>>>>> Doom 1 the game just isn't very fun without the d2 stuff Edited July 22, 2018 by AD_79 2 Share this post Link to post

Okay then... Tbh, I only liked Episode 1 and Plutonia, these are the best. These are the only classic games (other than D64), which I enjoyed playing (, even if I shit at playing Plutonia on UV). I liked Episode 2 until Deimos Lab, where I got bored and left. I'm not a fan of the techbase-hell mix, but it was still better than the E3 design Episode 3: Some maps were really good, but the others were bad/meh, and the music choice doesn't helped me with continuing the episode. Episode 4: That was OK. My favourites from this were the first three levels (E4M3, not the secret level) Doom 2: First 8-9 and a few levels from the other parts was great, but Refueling Base and the other maps killed my character and enthusiasm. TNT: Played the first 7 levels and Pharaoh. Pharaoh was really good for a secret level. I'm talkin about pc games. 0 Share this post Link to post
SoulSphere Posted July 23, 2018 (edited) Doom1 because it's more creepy and scary. Doom 2 is good, a lot of the levels pissed me off.. but it did have a lot of action 0 Share this post Link to post
Wereknight Posted July 23, 2018 (edited) the only question I have: why you put freedoom there? 0 Share this post Link to post
MFG38 Posted July 23, 2018 (edited) Doom 2 > Doom 1 > Plutonia > TNT I may be presenting a bit of a bias here, but Doom 2 was the first out of the classic titles that I played and the one I've played the most, so I basically know those levels like the back of my hand. That and the levels in Doom 2, in a way, "set the bar" for what I'd expect out of Doom 1 and Final Doom. That's not to say they didn't meet those expectations, but some of the level layouts, especially in Final Doom, were occasionally confusing to the point where I got downright frustrated with them. Which never happened with Doom 2, funnily enough. Doom 1 would otherwise be at the bottom of the list for me, if only because its beastiary/armory has less variety as opposed to Doom 2's, if it weren't for the previously stated problem that I have with Final Doom. 1 Share this post Link to post

Same here, I feel nauseous when playing it, no joke..so I never play it anymore. Love the new monsters but I don't really enjoy the rest of it. 0 Share this post Link to post
Doomarineactivated Posted July 25, 2018 Well, I haven't played Plutonia or TNT at all (please have mercy) so here's my order: Doom 2>Doom 1>FreeDoom 2>FreeDoom 1 0 Share this post Link to post
Marlamir Posted July 25, 2018 For me it would be Doom 1 mostly for nostalgic reason and fun not hard but not easy gameplay and wise design. Closely after D1 will be TNT, i really like few level design ideas they came up with. 0 Share this post Link to post
