Doomshack's Old Doom Websites Index is legendary. I've had a blast spending a Friday night or two going thru it and reliving the late 90s/early 00s Web-era. The Doom community has congregated around Doomworld at this point in the mid-2020s. I don't think anything compares.

Loving life!

I have read countless posts on doomworld and reddit about Doom II's shitty level designs... did it feel this way 30 years ago? I am on map20... and it feels like a giant slog that I don't really want to finish.

This, frankly, doesn't excite me too much. The beauty of Doom is limited story and run/gun. I don't really want some cringy backstory that could appear in any other FPS franchise.

Ok, thanks!

How many maps are in this wad? e1m1 thru e1m9?

Okay, I played thru the first level, and I had a great time. I'm excited to see where this project goes!

Wow! This looks amazing... will try it tomorrow.

All I can say is that as I'm play through this, I really miss the late 90s a lot. EDIT: Map20 was INCREDIBLE! I loved how I have to break out a prison, amazing. Super well thought out. Great level design. Really enjoyed that one! EDIT2: Played thru most of the maps.... I had a ton of fun! Overall, I really liked the transition from map19 to map20. That was my favorite part. =]

doom 2016 is to alien as doom eternal is to aliens... thats my analogy.

Amazing to speak to part of Doom history. You seriously should write a short book about the early days of Doom. I'm sure the fanbase would buy it... I'd read it. I'm pushing close to 40, and so nostalgia and fascination from 1995-2005 is starting to grow on me.... Today's games are great, but the mechanics were set back then.

Thank you so much for uploading this excellent mapset to idgames.... I've enjoyed the heck out of the first four maps. Despite a low monster count, they pack a punch! Excited to play the rest over the next couple days.

Map20... I thought the underground spawn area was a bit unfair. I wasn't expecting that... also, the second secret, I don't see anything in it? Over all, not a bad map. What's great about this wad is that I think I'm playing something from around 2000-2008... not a lot of bells and whistles just solid old school Doom

I felt the same way. I really enjoyed playing thru some of the first couple maps and I hope to play more tomorrow
