>they made Half-Life not Doom!
Is that supposed to be a problem?

How the hell is it Half-Life, if the game sucks major ass

HL2 aged like cheese covered in piss in the sun.
Doom 3 aged like fine wine

how come people still want to play Doom 3 every year and its popularity keeps growing.
Meanwhile no one gives a fuck about HL2 and its popularity keeps falling.

The only thing that could save HL2 from irrelevancy is a total remake and reboot.
>>
Why the hell are there so many Doom 3 contrarians. That game was horseshit when it was released, still is. Everyone rightfully called out how terrible it was, and how it played nothing like Doom 1 or 2. Is it literally just trolls?
>>
>>740281054
Who are these people that you're referring to?
>>
>>740281070
because its not contrarianism. The only people that hate it are valve fanboys. And a bunch of hipsters born after its release that think every doom game should be pixel shit

No one did this. It was always considered good.

>>740281115
So you're saying the only people who hate the game are true Doom fans, none zoomers, and fans of actual good games. Thanks for clarifying

reminder that valve fanboys have been screeching about Doom 3 before the game even released. They were terrified of it 1 upping Half Life 2.
They have been seething at it ever since, you used to be able to read the threads on the old valve forums.

Nudoom isn't even doom, they just wanted to milk the ip. In that sense comparisons to the old games make no sense because they share nothing mechanically

Simplistic isn't bad if it's done well within its constraints. Western designers/non retarded consumers still somehow conflate with amount of shit dumped onto the player with being a good game which has never been true. That's why you can play a jap game from the 90s and easily enjoy it while the western pc classics suck ass to play today for anybody but grew up on them. Doom not included because it didn't get roped into the complicated systems meme

the only people that badly reviewed it was ign for being too scary. And those faggots do that to every horror game because they are basedboys.

It's called parody, dude. That doesn't mean we didn't like it. The culture wars really did a number on the psychology of your generation, didn't it?
>>
I enjoyed doom 3 more than 1 and 2. 3 was a spooky horror experience. 1/2 are outdated sprite shooters
>>
>>740282319
yet Fo1 is the superior rpg because it has a complex rpg system.

Doom is simplistic even in comparison to its contemporaries. Its just a shoot em up where you find key cards.
Its a cool game but cool doesnt mean good.

Marathon was not only technically more superior it had better gameplay and an actual narrative.

Then we got Quake and Unreal.
Are the /vr/ats spamming this thread going to argue Quake is bad because its 3d or Unreal which was a 10/10 game with the best graphics at the time, is that a bad game? Of course they would they are pixel slop hipsters
>>
>>740282471
you seem more riled up that people love Doom 3. Yet you keep posting these bait threads /vr/ tard.
You haven't changed anyones mind by autistically having a tantrum you retard.
>>
>>740282663
also to add HL2 is is many ways less advanced than these games.
It has less guns and enemies, it has awkward design decisions and its simplistic itself. Not to mention it fucking rips off these games to boot. Valve fanboys trying to claiming its original is a joke.
>>
never beat it. i made it to the part where you have to ride a shuttle thing, and i couldn't figure out what to do.
>>
>>740280625
It's only good in VR
>>
>>740282904
lol
>>
the only weak element in Doom 3 i'll concede is the final boss. It's a bit gimmicky and seems like a designed for consoles thing.

But everything else is the game is absolute perfection. It feels like you are in a horror movie, the atmosphere and immersion is as good as Diablo 1.

You little contrarian faggots deserve the noose, D3 sucked compared to previous ID shooters and it sucked compared to other contemporary shooters like HL2/Halo/etc
ID went from making a masterpiece shooter in Q3A to a slow horror/shooter abomination with guns that sound and feel like ass

Well again, it's this obsession people have with complicated systems. I won't ever be able to convince someone that wide as an ocean deep as a puddle is good just because it's wide, you just get a headache learning everything and then it's boring because it feels like the devs were forgetting that their job was to make it fun

>Is that supposed to be a problem?
It is when you're a lil' boomer excited to play a Doom 3 when one of your formative experiences in life was seeing Doom 1 shareware running and going WIAOW. Still enjoyed Doom 3 then and appreciate it now, but it never scratched the Doom itch like 2016 and Eternal did
>>
>>740281070
>Everyone rightfully called out how terrible it was,
No they didn't lmao. It got stellar reviews and the only consistent, major complaint about it was swapping to your flashlight. Which the duct tape mod quickly fixed. It was slated for Shooter of the Year until Half-Life 2 dropped a couple months later.
Hell, my only complaint about it at launch was that my PC wasn't powerful enough for it.

Pros
>great introduction to UAC Mars facility
>amazing build up to demon invasion
>incredible, immersive atmosphere. Especially if you play in the dark with surround sound
>was fun unraveling events leading up to invasion via UAC staff journals / emails (reminiscent of System Shock games)
>demon redesigns were great, Bethesda/iD still uses DOOM 3's Hell Knight design
>guns were almost all great and functional and unique
>actually felt like you were facing Hell with all the satanic chanting and macabre, gore strewn ritual sites throughout the game
>good progression of power through finding weapons
>Super Turbo Turkey Puncher 3

Cons
>flashlight
>shotgun spread was too big
>chaingun felt underwhelming
>Cyberdemon fight was a bit of a letdown
>relied a little too much on jumpscares
>ancient martian ruins felt a little rushed
>>
>>740285589
i differ from a lot of people in that the flashlight isn't a big deal to me. I found it trivial to switch but the real reason is the fact you don't even need it to complete the game. The entire game can be completed with just the light from projectiles
>>
>>740280816
>Doom 3 aged like fine wine
Yeah, into vinegar.
>>
>>740285589
>>740284805

Actually filtered. You didnt get it, it flew over your head.
>>
>>740281070
>have no access to the internet
>play doom 3 on hardest difficulty
>enjoy it
>go talk to my friend about it
>he talks about how its too dark and he cant see anything which makes it almost unplayable to him because he could get attacked at any time which is too stressful
>go on the internet, internet agrees
>internet also complaining about how its not like doom 1&2
>"you see now... if you use math skills and apply that to doom 1&2 then you can deduce that doom man can run at 500 miles per hour and kick at 10k tons force pf pressure which makes him similar to superman, yet doom 3 is just a regular guy? my expectations are subverted and my day is ruined! if they wanted a realistic doom game they should make doom man more marvel!"
and ever since then i have assumed all doom 3 haters were retarded.
>>
>hl2 modding scene just died
>Doom 3 modding scene is still going and its actually grown
Explain this HL2 fanboys? you can't.
>>
>>740286119
The other funny thing is Doom 3 has all these texture and graphics remaster mods

But in the HL2 community any attempt to improve the graphics gets the modder death threats lol
>>
>>740285930
>and ever since then i have assumed all doom 3 haters were retarded
I reached the same conclusion
>>
>>740283383
this is the same reason why crusader kings 3 is more fun than 2
>>
>>740283383
The fact of the matter is high iq people like complex games.
Games have been dumbed down to appeal to wider audiences.
Is Doom a dumb game? It was high iq to make and thats one of the reasons i think people love it.
But it's a simple game, it's a very arcadey shoot em up.
Praising classic Doom is kinda like praising pong or tetris. Hell they even taught a bunch of braincells to play Doom in a lab, So it doesn't require a fully functional brain to master
You can
>>
>>740285589
Why did the flashlight filter so many people? Catching glimpses of enemies flanking you via muzzleflash was kino
>>
>duct tape mod
you didn't play the game.
>>
>>740280806
DOOM 3 is more imsim than survival horror
>>
>>740281130
they put a gravity gun in the expansion pack and Carmack was genuinely going

>yeah guys we totally already had the gravity gun for debugging but decided it would clash with our vision for doom 3
>>
The intro still gives chills.

Doom 3 was basically a survival horror game like Resident evil but in first person.
