Youtube views/ads.



so basically, we pay him by watching him play :p

just listened to him a bit... so it's not quite the first time he plays doom. i was able to get the original doom to work sounds like he set up dosbox for doom2.exe to me. anyway the graphics looks pixelated, especially on today's bigger screens, and when you're used with modern graphics in full-hd or higher it might be a bit hard to notice details.

But how is he paid? I mean, if I were paid by the hour to play Doom, I'd be extremely clueless as well. It might take me a whole day to finish Hangar. :D


wonderful :D

Pretty interesting seeing a newcomer or someone without much experience going through the classic Doom 2 levels mostly blind. I'd rather see him go through the original Doom, though, even if just the first episode!

Yes, part 5! Gonna watch it later.

I agree with everyone saying it's cool to watch a new player reliving his childhood. He seems genuinely nervous when he comes across a new monster. These videos made me replay doom2 all the way through, and holy shit that wad is awesome. I didn't play episode 2 & 3 for so many years, so I didn't really know what to do. Gameplay is pretty hardcore too, I can only imagine what it was like to play doom2 when it came out.

Despite noticeable inexperience, I can see he's doing pretty well with Doom, using the mouse already and moving pretty fast in combat. [haven't watched part 6 yet]. Though yeah, he's still playing on HNTR, so I'm not judging accurately.

Someone should make him watch a gameplay video of one of HR1's tougher maps, like MAP13, MAP22 or MAP24, and record his first reaction to everything. It would be gold.

Totally.

Or possibly even post a link to something like Andrey Budko's Doom2 TAS Nightmare speedrun, on youtube. Link.

Equally impressive is Adrian "RamboBones" Danis UV speedrun. Link.

These two had finished half the game in the time it took me to post this. Ouch.

Either way, seeing his reaction would be, indeed, priceless.

And also NT,great work. This series is awesome.

He said in the last video that he doesn't want to watch any other playthroughs to spoil his experience of casually replaying through the game. :)

This one will do the trick:



Edit: changed by a more entertaining demo.

It's weird seeing the game played on skill 2 again after all these years. The pacing is still really good though, it's clear they actually put some thought into the lower skill levels, rather than just removing some enemies. I completely forgot about the blue keycard being on the crusher platform in MAP06, allowing you to skip the other half of that room, and stop the monster closet in the starting area from opening.

One of the many moments were I thought "Man, this rocks!".

Hiya.

Ok...


Aaarrgh! ;) Two pages and nobody has corrected that its "Starsky & Hutch". That was the 70's cop show. (and yes, I did use to watch it, and yes, I was a kid, and yes...I'm old...;) ).

...as to the video's...I'm at work and YouTube is blocked, so it'll have to wait for another two hours.
