Caves of Qud is an ambitious roguelike taking place in a distant future that I can only describe as being like the Dying Earth stories.

This one looks great, will definitely play it if/when it becomes compatible with dsda-doom.

I also love Hellbound for the same reasons, IMO Doom 2 Reloaded has a similar vibe, give it a shot. EDIT: I should elaborate a bit more: Some of the levels in D2R aren't as good as others and the detail level is more similar to classic Doom 2 (but better I think). Also, if you really want to improve the mood of either megawad I suggest using the PSX Doom soundtrack!

MAP27 Mount Pain!

The successor to DoomRL (the DooM Roguelike) is coming out on August 5th, they just released a trailer. If you're a fan of roguelikes (and obviously a fan of DooM) than you should really check it out. Official Website Steam Page

When I first started playing Doom I went through this phase of only playing on UV, no saves and always pistol start. It forced me to get better, however it also caused me to quit a ton of megawads before completing them because I couldn't take playing one hard map over and over again. I finally mellowed out and now I play on HMP, pistol start (I don't know I just prefer this way of play) and I usually only save each time I get a key, but on harder maps I'll also save before a huge battle.

Just finished this on HMP in GZDoom. Really enjoyed it overall! You did an awesome job of adding different mechanics that made the levels feel really original. A couple of them rode the line (and some went over) between original and turning into a sort of switch hunt, however I feel these were in the minority. Overall great megawad! Lets get it on idgames so I can give it a proper review!

How about Mordor: The Depths of Dejenol?

Like everyone else is saying the dark atmosphere, especially the music which I think is a lot better than the typical Doom 1 & 2 soundtracks, really makes the game for me. Beyond that, to me it plays like classic Doom albeit missing some of the better monsters which is a shame.

I'm glad you did, this is a great tribute to Doom 64's soundtrack.

Looks very cool, very interested in playing Doom RPG again, its been a long time.
