For me at least, the good levels are some of the best Doom levels ever, but the bad ones (city levels IMO) are some of the worst.

Thank you!

CLOCKWISE. Right handed, and it just kinda happens that way. And yes, now every time I circle strafe I will be super conscious of it.

Thanks!

Thank you all for your help! I was getting bored of the IWADs. The only difficulties I had were the later maps of Doom II just because I'm bad at remembering the layouts (looking at you, Factory and Downtown). The maps posted here that I've tried have been great to play, so thanks!

Where would you guys put DTWIDD/D2TWIDD on this list? I didn't see either.

True, true. LOL, I'm glad she edited it.

I just beat one of the WADs on that progression link, super easy. Maybe that means I don't suck...? I've heard a lot about DTWIDD/D2TWIDD, but I've always assumed they'd be above my skill level. Guess it's worth a try!

Sorry for being dumb, and thank you!! I didn't actually see this one. Sorry again for being dumb - can't wait to get playing!

I have purchased Final Doom! Working on it as I type ;)

This is an awesome link that I've looked at a lot, and I appreciate you reminded me of it, but I don't see any type of standard on difficulty - is there something I'm missing?

Before I start, I didn't see anything about this when I searched. There are WAD lists, but my search didn't come up with answers to this specific question. If there's a thread that answers this that I should go to and this should be deleted, I am legitimately sorry. I don't wanna be that annoying forum poster who doesn't know how to use a search function, but when I tried I didn't see anything matching what I specifically am looking for. With that out of the way, what are the best WADs to get for someone who has beaten Ultimate Doom and Doom II and is looking for something a little harder? Not too much (because I suck really bad at Doom), but harder nonetheless? I have beaten both games multiple times on Ultraviolence and wanna step things up a bit. Thanks!

When I was way younger, I had nightmares about the Icon of Sin - that shit scared me. I still get kinda creeped out by it today as an adult!

I'm really happy they kept both versions. I might try the port!

Yeah, that makes sense. I appreciate the clarification and thought your post was incredibly well written.
