What Monster(Or Thing) In Doom Gives You Bad Vibes?

[pyborg]

For me personally, it's the status bar face down below. I know that the 10% and below shows Doomguy all beaten and you're soon to die. I would agree with that, but I know that I'm probably going to die soon. With this face, it sends a message. It tells me that there is something worse to come. You might die soon, but maybe not.

 

Also Lost Souls, I despise those freaks.

Lost souls have always spooked me a bit, I don't know if it's the drawing in general, the eyes, the animation or what.  That and they have a bad habit of floating up out of pits without warning.

I've personally loathed them because they are very annoying, especially in large groups. Also the sound. It's pretty damn spoopy.

The Evil Eye always freaked me out, mainly because I can't really understand what the heck it's supposed to be

However my anxiety for them made them easier to spot in Sigil

I can see why. It's very alien and hellish. It really looks like something from, well...Hell. Speaking of hell, that skin colored tentacle texture freaks me out. 

And only the skin color one. I think it freaks me out because of the color. The color makes it look like human flesh. And I would bet that seeing human flesh tentacles would not be very nice.

I find some of the realistic corpse graphics disturbing, since they look a lot different from the other graphics. The gore decorations in general creep me out sometimes when used properly. I don't usually get disturbed, but when I am, I remember it.

Yeah. Decino mentioned how they didn't fit Doom's art style and I agree. They look way more realistic than anything else in the game.

Do these textures amplify those fears?

Revenants: i don't like them, not even the memes can make me like them.

That freaky green-ass face with the red eyes from E2M4.

Sometimes with blood pouring out of it's mouth

[NoahRules]

Basic answer sure, but this damn texture

I think it could be dope if a metal band put this texture as a album cover, it really fits well in my opinion.

There are many great things you could do with photoshop. I'm not sure this was one of them.

I've only had experience with Doom 64 most of my life, so one thing that used to freak me out a lot was the sprite for the Pain Elemental.

Oh Christ! I can only imagine what would come of this if Doom 64 got a remake...

Yeah lmao, imagine if they went with this design for Doom Eternal.

Photoshop strikes again!

[Stupid Bunny]

I could write Doomworld's 69,420,000,000th post about why arch-viles are scary but instead I'll go with a different tack and note that, for some reason, the sounds of crushers running has always made me really anxious, at least when there's no other sound in the area.  I don't know why; it's not like they're hunting me, I know exactly where they are most of the time, but if I'm running around an otherwise silent level and I suddenly hear the sound of crushers it always puts me on edge.  Maybe it's just the mental image of being crushed under a giant moving stone, or seeing all these different demons reduced to the same smashed lump of bone and blood, or it's just hearing any sound emerging out of the silence from somewhere I can't see.

[pyborg]

For me at least, Doomguy getting crushed is kinda silly to to me because he plays his pain sound over and over again. They do give me some paranoia though because they can do some massive damage.

Dead bodies being hung or stuck on a stake always gives off bad vibes. Even more so if a monster is flattened out on the wall, you KNOW it's bad. So yeah, basically.... dead anything. Even dead marines, but that actually makes me feel more somber. 

[TheGreenZap]

I agree with Lost Souls. They always seem to be right behind me doing their weird sounds before I realize it.

Yeah. They look like a hellish adaptation of a mythological Greek monster.

[Sergeant_Mark_IV]

E1 levels in PlayStation/Saturn Doom.
The bleak brown and gray textures with the bleak white skies and Aubrey Hodges music.

It's extremely depressing in a Limbo sort of way. It does not feels any bit scary, it's just plain depressing and sad.
