I absolutely love the first game in the series. Sure, it isn't as good as 4 gameplay and mechanic wise, but it's extremely difficult(which I love, it makes it feel like so much more of an accomplishment when you finally beat it), and it's really atmospheric. The music is great too.

@elend I haven't touched Heretic in years, I'll definitely check those out! @Doomkid I just peeped that one out, it looks great, thanks!

@Terminus oh, right, Big Papa Romero himself released a new WAD, I know where my free time tomorrow is going! Also, I just checked out those other suggestions and they look good too, i'll be sure to play through them sometime soon, thanks

@Snikle cool beans, i'm downloading them now, thanks

I'm coming back to the Doom community after about 5 months away. Damn it feels good to be back, booting up GZDoom after so long felt like seeing an old friend after a trip abroad, and I'm ready to get back into the groove of things. What are some fun WADS that I might have missed? I'm not picky, I'll play anything strange/intense/action packed/funny and everything in between. I'll be on for another half hour and then again at some point during the day tomorrow, so hit me with your faves. Cheers!

@Bauul @bioshockfan90 Awesome, thanks! I feel like I'll definitely have a good amount of stuff to pull from to start out

@Kappes Buur nice, thanks a ton

Alright, I've been playing doom almost exclusively for about two and a half years now, and I'm curious on venturing into the world of mapping. I've never made a custom wad before, and I also don't know anything about making a wad, but I already have some ideas for one, which I guess is something? Anyone here who has some experience with making custom wads have any tips for me?(ex: what program do you think is best to use, any problems a beginner like me could run into, etc.) I won't be able to do any serious work on a wad for a few weeks because I'm busy and don't have enough free time to work for more than half an hour at a time, so I figured if I started learning the basics and fiddled around for a bit each day I'd be set to start a project when I've got more free time. Any and all help is extremely appreciated

Same lol

I was playing Ultra Nightmare on Doom 2016 for the first time, and about 20 seconds into the second mission I got surrounded by imps, panicked, and shot a barrel next to me trying to get them off of me, without my brain making the connection that my dumbass would die too. I sat in shock for about 20 seconds because I couldn't believe I was actually stupid enough to shoot that barrel.

Doom II. I prefer final doom with the map design, but nothing beats going up against the Icon of Sin in Doom II

I'm offended that this is even a question, rather than just an outright statement that cacodemons are absolutely adorable

That still sounds awesome

Same, I didn't know about it until the video was posted here, but I've been binging the series and I absolutely love it
