I live in Russia and Blood was a big, albeit weird part of my childhood. My dad bought me a PC for my 8th birthday (1997, for context) and he remembered playing a game he called "Wolf" in Russian (obv Wolf3D) and asked for something similar from a bootleg CD vendor and they gave him Blood. Thing is, it wasn't normal sane Blood, this one was not only fully translated and dubbed into Russian, but the bootleg studio decided to... Make the main character into fucking Lenin? Like, aside from the fonts they didn't alter any of the assets, but the script and voice-overs were completely rewritten to fit into this new bizarre universe, where Caleb was the leader of the Bolsheviks and instead of dark snark he spouted bizarre 1917 revolution and communism jokes. It went completely over my head at the time, I was 8 and I was stupid and thought this was how the game was always supposed to be, so it was a big shock when I later discovered it was not, in fact, a game about Lenin. Russia in the 90s was weird.

A little late but I got an answer for your friend: Play Fresh Supply and use Made to Order to set every parameter to extra crispy, except one. Cultist accuracy. Turn that shit all the way down. It transformes them from pure bullshit to something more akin to DOOM hitscanners and makes the game 100% more enjoyable to play.

One of my favorite things about Blood is the unique arsenal of weapons it has. What's your melee weapon? Fists, boots? Nope, a pitchfork. Whats your starting pistol gun? A flare gun! And it's not useless! Rocket launcher? Nah man, a NAPALM LAUNCHER Or how about a voodoo doll? A 1930s gangster tommy gun? A DIY flamethrower with a lighter and can of aerosol spray? Tossing bundles of dynamite? It's so out there but one of a kind. You see those weapons and instantly, you know, it's Blood.

This game does ALOT. On easier difficulties, its has some of the most visceral, fast-paced, and explosive FPS gameplay out there, honestly that's something many games of its kind have achieved; but where it truly shines is when it's played on Extra Crispy (the highest difficulty): it becomes, in my opinion; of the best survival-horror experiences out there. The gameplay suddenly feels radically different and the spike in difficulty forces you to think outside of the box and approach levels in new, cautious ways, in a way it's like I'm experiencing these levels all over again in a much more intimate, engaging way. Right now I'm savescumming through the first level and right off the bat; finding secrets, hoarding ammo, and mastering TNT trick-shots is a MUST. It blew my mind when I realized I can throw TNT through the narrow opening between the cemetary gate and the ceiling above in order to blow up that first cultist. Then you gotta alert all the zombies and the one cultist in the graveyard so you can lure them all together in a group and just blast them with the flare gun's alt-fire. Soon, after a few attempts; it becomes clear that running straight into the Chapel/Morgue is a death sentence, so you have to trick jump on grave stones until you get atop the cemetary fence, and enter through the second floor window. If you're lucky, you'll have enough flares/TNT left over to take out everyone else, and you'll have the drop on the would-be ambushers from the cremation room window. Seriously, for 1997? That is MASTERFUL level design. It's just amazing that this game can do both the run-n-gun slaughterfest experience and also the suspenseful and dangerous atmosphere of survival horror.

I tried GZDOOM last night and I had a totally BLAST, it's unbelievable just how well the first DOOM game still holds up.

I’m around the same age and agree. One problem with a lot of modern action games is that the level design is too linear. Even when it’s open, they’re usually just hiding upgrades in the different paths. Because of this, there’s no reason to revisit secrets if you’re replaying the game. But with old school shooters and especially Metroidvania and horror games? You NEED to go hunting the levels for supplies. Not just to kick ass and get weapons earlier than normal but also just to survive.

BUILD engine games do mirrors by duplicating and flipping part of the level inside of a room behind the mirror. You can even wander around it if you turn on noclip and walk through one. EDIT: Actually, I think that only applies to v1.3D of Duke3D (and you die if you leave the room behind the mirror). You get the hall-of-mirrors effect in v1.5, Shadow Warrior does the same (if you can find a mirror whose back-room doesn't overlap other sectors, as you tend to end up in those instead), and I don't remember Blood's cheat codes to test it for that one.

Blood is the game that... ...has the rats that are more brutal and aggressive than those in Kingpin despite still being normal rodents. ...has probably the best train scene ever. SoF, UT 99 & 2004 are probably a somewhat close second. ...is metal as hell. ...does the lovecraftian horror (which is already rarity in and of itself) right despite lack of explicit references and complete victory of the protagonist (a nigh impossible feat, it appears, for most). ...is more metal than hell. ...has one of the best dark ambient soundtracks on par with the Fallout dilogy (as well as some other MM works, IMO), early Diablo and Stalker (I'm not doing the pointless acronym thing, sorry). ...is the most advanced of the contemporary build engine games - and it shows: to this day only the yet to be released Ion Maiden has anything on the good old Caleb. ...has one of the most robust, original and enjoyable to use arsenal of weapons complete with rather well-designed damage types system, solid main gameplay loop and formidable bestiary to boot. ...has clever level design that while is fun (both human and dwarvish type) to crawl through is also atmospheric beyond any measure, filled to the brim with interactions, sharp scripting and more allusions than should be doable in any good game (and yet here we are). ...honestly, should be used as the measure to which your typical old-school and especially new-old-school FPS should aspire. As someone who played perhaps more than it is healthy, I have this to say: this game is a masterpiece alongside with titans like *the* Deus Ex, Thief, Marathon and many others that have this "...now I have to reinstall this game" quality that is a true testament to its quality and craftsmanship behind it.

It's immensely fun to play today, and it is far and away the best Build Engine game. If Iron Maiden can even approach Blood, it will be a stunning success. It is one of the best executions of a theme I have ever seen in a game, and in my opinion, it is the absolute perfect Halloween season shooter (not that you shouldn't play it all year round). Despite its age, it is still just buckets of fun, and blowing things up with dynamite or setting things on fire or letting loose with both barrels of the shotgun or spraying with the tommy gun, *all of it,* just never gets old.

Considering Ion Maiden has actual headshot mechanics and a massively overpowered Pistol weapon (just like Blood does), I'd say it's off to a hot start!

Ayy i just did that with fresh supply for nostalgia sake! To be honest i feel that extra crispy was easier in fresh supply than it was back in vanilla blood. Cerberus was my only problem as well, until i lodged myself up in one of the pillars in his arena, and proceeded to pepper him with explosives without him even doing a thing.

Love how if you die to the dynamite in your hands going off, you get 3 frames of Caleb's hands being almost entirely skeletal as his flesh is completely torn from them by the blast. You can see it even without frame-hunting at 3:27 if you look close enough.

When you are ending the level 5, that cultist temple, there is another super secret you apparently missed. At the very beggining of the bridge at the end of the level, you should jump to a small invisible platform on the left side of the bridge pit to access it.

Blood is the best FPS ever created. Extra Crispy is the best difficulty because you need to utilize everything this game offers you (weapons, secrets, enemy position). I even beat this game on Extra Crispy without saves (I was without a HDD [crashed] for a year so I have to run this game from CD-ROM with MS-DOS on Floppy disk). Good times!

Your videos are the kind you prepare a mountain of snacks to marathon and enjoy but also the perfect background stuff for work or just to chill. It fits so much I love it. But your deep analysis of the game from it's history to story, physics, engine it's all makes you worthy of calling this PRO BLOOD but sadly puts everyone else's videos to shame. Even those who are long time fans and dedicated to a franchise yet fail some minor details in reviews. Even Caddicarus and Nitrorad may miss something but you got the damn game down to it's cut content. And you're not afraid of swearing or crude language but not over the top. A fine balance of actual comedy. Too good.

Only explanation I have for the save game difficulty swapping, is its inverted on an odd number, and it implies the value corresponds to negative an positive numbers, and when loading it swaps a negative to a positive and vice versa. Therefore the reason 'lightly broiled' stays the same'. If in order from least to most hard, the difficulty is stores as either a -2, - 1, 0, 1 or 2, then the inverse chart of difficulty makes sense if the game is glitching and switching a negative to a positive. And zero is neither which is why lightly broiled would be unaffected by said glitch

Here's a funny story for anyone reading the comments and finding mine. I never played Blood when i was still a kid, but Civvie's enthusiasm for it made me buy the steam version which is "Blood: Fresh supply." I then decided to go in the hardest difficulty intended for single player, like Civvie. Except for the steam version, they made an extra difficulty which is "made to order" (or maybe it's custom renamed?) but anyway, i distinctly remembered Civvie playing the difficulty above the hardest, so i picked the same. And yeah, you guessed it, in the steam version it's *drum roll* Extra Crispy. I still managed to make it to E1M4 by cheesing every encounters, making ennemies see me, go behind a corner, wait for them to come and pitchfork them to death. Like Civvie said, i would NOT recommend. I started the game again in "Well Done" and oh god is it more manageable. Don't play on Extra Crispy, ever...

This series brought Blood to my attention (nice series btw). Just recently played through the first 4 acts on Lightly Broiled and now I'm doing it over again on Well Done, and holy fuck nuts the difference is day and night. A couple extra enemies in most encounters, the hitscanners having faster reaction times and doing more damage, everything having more health, and the cultists throwing TNT bundles instead of sticks - it's fucked. When you mentioned the bar-car on the train being difficult, I thought maybe you were exaggerating because it wasn't that bad. It is on Well Done. I have to actually quick save now, and I retried the bar-car probably 15 times. Extra Crispy can't be anything other than ridiculous and I refuse to find out.

The alt fire with dynamites is great. Normal dynamites: -- Apart from what you've covered, if you press alt-fire and alt-fire again Caleb drops the ignited dynamite on the ground (good if something is chasing you) Other dynamites are also dropped with alt-fire, but then subsequent alt-fires load the next dynamite, so you can drop more than one.
