Post your Doom video! [but don't quote video]
Thomased22 replied to DuckReconMajor's topic in Doom General
Made this for the Hideous Destructor Community. -
An expansion adding various types of space/aircraft, and space combat is in the very early planning stages. It isn't gonna come out until everything else is done. It'll be in the vain of the powersuit expansion for sure. If you are knowledgeable on aircraft, sci-fi or otherwise, and would like to contribute, head over to the discord. There's a chat dedicated to scheming this expansion. It's something I think would be really cool if it reaches it's potential.

Sign of Evil is the best composition easily, but let down by midi limitations. Remixes of Sign of Evil kick major ass. Bye Bye American Pie though is dollar store Them Bones and I find it needlessly charming. Though the source material is better for sure. DOOM, Message for The Archvile, and Into Sandy's City are pretty close to sign of evil's excellent composition but fared better in the midi format. DOOM has a slow start but I think it's my favorite once it really kicks into gear. Worthy of it's name for sure. Doom 3's theme is also great, same with Aubrey's main theme from Doom PS1 and D64. Either of those two would make for a worthy series theme. Hiding the Secrets is another great doom 1 track that is better in remixes. See: 3DO Version of Hiding the Secrets. I think it all comes down to tone really. There's a few staple tones in the original games. Dark but fun, jubilation, and fun but with a haunting or sinister edge. If that makes any sense. There's also atmospheric but I prefer compositions that elicit more emotions from me personally lol. Cyberdemon's boss theme in episode 2 is up there too and is carried by it's fun with an edge and the emotions it spawns. It's tonally perfect, right up there with the best of the best. The composition is simple, but that fits really well for what sort of level it's being played in.

What's your favorite armor system in games?
Thomased22 replied to Li'l devil's topic in Everything Else
I like the armor in my Doom TTRPG a lot. It synergizes well with the shooting mechanics, especially when it comes to shotguns , rifles, and pistols. Armor is among the more complex mechanics but it's what allows all the different weapon types to have different roles in combat, and balances them. :) This is to say, an armor system that works in a somewhat realistic way (helps against rifle and pistol rounds, very effective against shotguns, etc) has rarely been explored in video games and is kind of cool. -
I've always been a fan of the Blazkowicz connection. For one, obviously with the nu doom games, Doom Guy has escaped his original domain as a self insert and became a character of his own. Secondly, if you take the mugshots into account, Doom Guy and Blazkowicz are very nearly the same. Thirdly, it's pretty cool narratively. Bloodline stories are always fun.
