-Mexican Day of the Dead

They made a Mexican version of Day of the Dead? O_O

 

Is it anything like Turkish Star Wars?

no, papi!

Its ''Día de los Muertos''
Its like USA's Halloween but its not halloween.
Its a conmomorative day to remember their beloved deceased people.
 

 

As for themes.
Funnelcake Apparitions did a good job to bring spooky circus themed maps.
But i want more!

And more love to HACX and cyberpunk in general.
Or any kind of XPunk!
SteamPunk!
SolarPunk!
GymPunk!

EarthPunk!
SpacetravelPunk!
StealthPunk!

Punk!

BDSMPunk! (yeah, a starting on a lust house, going into the realm of the Order of the Gash from Hellraiser, and lots and lots of subtle erotic or torture imagery. Don't be confuce, not a fetish or particular liking, but its a theme that was not explored almost at all on Doom maps. HFFM could have expanded on it, but well... it didn't :/ Now that i think of it, a proper Hellreiser inspired mapset wasn't made at all. Forget about Hellraiser TC, its trash... and for some reason, it gives W_GetNumForName: S_START not found on PrBoom+UM but works without problem on chocolate and other ports :/...the lump marker is there, i dont get why it doesn't work at all)

More Wolfenstein 3D themed maps, but in Doom style, kinda to what LasRojaz did with Operation: Articwolf, but expanded.

 

And in general, too.
More mapsets like MarsWar.
Mapsets that are good un fun to play, but also had a political and satyrical message on them.
I would love to suggest themes, but i don't hate anything...now that i think of it, how strange! :O

Also more maps like they are completelly sell outs like Kick Attack!
That kind of thing are fun.
But Tim may rot in hell, Id destroyer :(

  • Silent Hill
  • Username 666/Another Youtube
  • Hazbin Hotel/Helluva Boss kind of Hell
  • Sad Satan and or Afraid of Monsters's monochrome graphics
  • D-6.gro/Dysthymia-6 kind of Hell
  • Corrupted, as in glitched and flashing textures, ambient noises and sound effects being replaced with databent EXE's in audacity, and N64 cartridge tilting.

These are the themes I want to see, perhaps I can host a megawad based on those themes with custom textures, sounds, and entities!

I'd guess most people here know about it already, but there's lilith.pk3 for that.

I have not seen a tank battle themed map.

Revolution!
map15: Battleground has hints of a tank battle.
Subtle, but they are there.

I want more optical Illusions!

Like white surrounding you, but with a white pillar in the center, and when you walk behind it, the area around it changes with an invisible tele or something like that.

 

like you come in from a jungle, go around the pillar, and now you're in a techbase, or something like that.

 

Or hell, make a version of that infinite waterfall thing or one of those "see the word from one side and see another word on the other side" things. I really like optical Illusions and I think they would be awesome to see more of in doom.

Soviet Russia mods or wads (i already know about Russian Overkill)

-Comatose

-Sacrament

-Doxylamine Moon: Overdose

-Bloody Steel
-Whitemare & Whitemare 2

-Bloodspeed

-Doom 2 In name Only Russian Community Take

-A.L.T.

Most mapsets are by the Russian Doom Community, and there are a huge amount of maps in there that are set on Russia, too.

Art deco

Silent Hill 1 & 3-style otherworld

Ancient China

90s CGI-inspired surreal cyberworld, kinda like The Minds Eye or Reboot

50s sci-fi film/Silver Age comics (on that note, there seem to be surprisingly few Fallout-themed mods to my knowledge, especially since it's been stablemates with Doom for a while now...)

I haven't seen this sort of architecture in Doom.

that's what eviternity's last chapter looks like, and iirc the first in this style was ancient aliens map24.

 

kinda reminds me of the ending of 2001 (the movie)

other than that, i'd like to see

 

- biomechanical (all h.r. giger, i also count skillsaw's skin-tech maps in valiant as belonging here)

- steampunk / victorian (is mordeth this style?)

- silent hill / abstract, nightmarish

- war-torn / post-nuclear / fallout

- more obscure ancient themes: celtic? tibetan? african? are there african themed wads at all?

Whatever theme is present in Quake Alkaline's Dancing in the Golden Sun

 

 

 

i'd say it's a colorful, sci-fi theme... but man it's weird, so much like being in a wrong, twisted place. excellent stuff, i can't recommend it enough.
