If only you could talk to the monsters...
doomguy... must be better
what if monsters was we were whole the time?
>that moment when Doomguy realizes that the demons were innocent civilians and humans are the REAL monsters all alongHoly shit... fucking deep
>>726001150the imps have pierced nipples wtf?
>>726001150>SSG in Doom 1The fuck?
>>726001150No.
>>726001150>Most games are pretty simple. You try to talk to enemies, you die, you're forced to shoot them to progress. Undertale changed that.
>>726001150Well, I guess you could talk to the scientists in Blake Stone.
Persona 1 did it
>>726001461You could talk to the demons all the way back in 1987's Megami Tensei 1 on the Famicom
>everyone on /v/ is too young to get the reference
>>726001325Where?>>726001397That guy was probably comparing it to Ultima Underworld or something.
>>726002387My only guess is Gaming in the Clinton Years.
>>726002387Wasn't it an Edge magazine review or something?
no john you are the demons
>>726003806 SSG wasn’t in Doom 1, that’s why people are confused. It first showed up in Doom II. Unless someone’s playing a janked-up WAD or some fanmade Dehacked crap with it backported, it’s straight-up not there. As for Blake Stone-yeah, that’s probably just retro cope. It’s always Ultima this, Underworld that with these dudes.
>>726005405I know, but there's no SSG in OP screenshot.
Doomguy was the demons
>>726005405I remember that Playstation Doom shuffled Doom 2 content into Doom 1 maps, so you'd see Revenants in Containment Area, for example. Possibly you could get the SSG earlier in that version, too. But as the other anon said, there's no SSG in the OP pic.

At this point I hear that sentence and I think of Action Button Reviews season 1. Connecting Doom, Cyberpunk, Tokimeki Memorial, and Final Fantasy VII Remake was brilliant.
>>726006471It's simultaneously disheartening and comforting to know that faggotry has always been a thing among vidya journoids.
>>726006471Explain? I'm not watching a dozen 48 hours worth of youtube videos to understand what you're talking about.
>>726001150>>726006471>hurp durp let's talk to these stupid nigger demonsPROTIP: SHOOT THE CYBERDEMON UNTIL IT DIES
>>726006716It's a old review of doom that became a meme referenced in that one video.
If only you could woo the monsters...
>>726006993No I was asking this retard to explain how this Action Button Reviews series links the games that he mentioned together because each video in that series is over 3 hours long.
>>726006471He's right.
>>726001209>>726001237>>726006845Redditors that came from the 2016 game>>726004023>>726005620Actual fans of Doom from before the Bethesda slop
>>726007669Don't quote me in your faggy ass attempt at a mass reply ever again, cockmongler
If only you could FUCK the monsters
>>726006695In the 90s, Edge Magazine was worth buying because it the only publication in the UK that gave candid reviews, pushing past the marketing hype to point out the flaws in major releases (except for sacred Nintendo games where the bonus always applied). The tradeoff was that you also had to put up with a certain amount of pretentiousness from them. They were early proponents of the "videogames as an artform" bullshit, desperate for their avenue of journalism to be taken more seriously.
Anyone in here like to do Sprite art and want to make a DOOM mod with me?
>>726001150>"Hello">GRAHLWLRJF (shoots at you)>(blasts them to pieces with the shotgun in response)>"Erm...so THAT just happened"
>>726007669SHOOT THE CYBERDEMON UNTIL IT DIES existed before you were even born
>>726007498why should he spoonfeed you? you're sputum
>>726001150>>726006471They were clearly just being silly, because every other publication at the time had already praised Doom to high heavens, so instead of just repeating what little there was to say about Doom's simple but sheer quality, they wrote a le ironic "review" that said something wacky and contrarian.
>>726010142If he wants me to understand what the fuck he's saying he'll need to explain because I am not watching a dozen 3-4 hour long video essays just to understand anon's post.
>>726009943purely socioeconomic factors
>>726010221I mean, what I said is the summary. To find out the finer details would require you to watch them. The Doom review is great and works well standalone. His style is an acquired taste, and people who like it tend to go full faggot and start to think he is their real friend. Fair warning given.
>>726006471I mean mods sorta did that?
