40 Minute Video: DOOM 2016 VS DOOM 1993 Comparison

[Jhare]

On YT, I haven't seen a lot of people directly compare DOOM 93 and DOOM 2016, so to show my deep love for the series, I thought I might as well try to analyze both these games. While I believe almost NO-ONE can do justice to the beloved series, I believe this is a decent video. Of course, constructive criticism is always welcome.
