Sigil + D4V + Doom Retro = Modern Retro Perfection!


Recommended Posts

I'm just posting this to say I had a blast last night playing through all of Sigil with the D4V mod in Doom Retro. It was like some alternate history Doom 2. Damn if that Buckethead soundtrack doesn't rock! Hard to shoot barons while headbanging. The 3 projects go so well together though, that I have to recommend others try it. Romero's Sigil levels are both more modern but very true to original doom style. The D4V brings in the production design of 2016 Doom which is (as much as I love original doom) much more consistent and well crafted than the old school stuff. And Doom Retro is the perfect engine to pair these with. Slight upres, but still feeels like I remember Doom in the 90s with its little touches of blood, dithered lighting, shifting water etc. It is without a doubt my favorite engine to play Vanilla compatible maps and mods in. Each one of these projects take Doom I to the next level, but together their effect is increased exponentially. Sorry I can't stop gushing about it, but if y'all owe it to yourselves to play this combo (even if you're just using the midi version of Sigil, which also rocks)
