Doom 3 was amazing when it came out, if you had the hardware to run it. It was probably the best looking game of it's time. Although dark, the lighting of the game was beyond anything else at the time. It also had some inovations that you didn't see else where. The PDA to read emails and lore were in game, instead of some overlay, the doors, switches, and touch screens where in game where you actually reached out and touched it. It was not really devisive game, just about all reviews gave it high praise.

@@CaptRespect Well I guess first off is that yes it was divisive when it launched, especially among classic Doom fans. It was such a departure from the other games so it was naturally going to ruffle some feathers. As I said in the video I think the lighting still looks great, definitely the best part about the game visually. As for the interactivity, it's cool to be able to touch the displays and stuff, I liked the intro, but I think Half-Life 2 easily beats Doom 3 in that regard, mostly to due with the physics stuff it presented. Just my take on it though

Two UAC members find sarges double barrel shotgun in a glass case and they finally find the code to unlock it and say they will take out to the range tomorrow.

@@thelastmikester also I have a tip for you regarding the shotgun and double barrel shotgun. Treat them as if they are semi melee weapons. The shotgun can one shot most enemies if you get right up in their face and nail them in the upper torso or head with a shot. The double barrel doesn’t need to be as close but if you want to garuntee a kill, get close

Well not now but back than this was a revolution in technology and also in a standpoint. I played this on a crt tv with an Xbox classic and we played system link cooperative and we had a blast with it. Good old times. The original old dooms verse become what they were because of tech limitations and ID was groundbreaking with it.

On the contrary (sort of)... before playing Doom 3, the only version of classic Doom that I'd played was the PS1 version... and if you've also played it yourself, you can completely understand why I assumed that Doom 3's vibe was nothing out of the ordinary 🤣👀

It's not the worst, but it has elements that don't age well at all. The final boss of the game is something that disrespects the Cyberdemon from the classics. Remember that meme that was like: "To kill the cyberdemon, shoot at it until it dies."? Now it's like: "To kill the cyberdemon, spam this one-shot weapon 3 times until it dies." Doom always had horror elements but this was really not anything but a horror tech demo. And the Plasma gun is just fucking terrible with how slow the projectiles are. Tho I'll admit, that the main theme is an absolute banger.

@@arshiaaghaei Yeah I definitely agree, it's not the worst thing out there by any means. As I mentioned in the video, I think the cyberdemon boss fight is poorly designed and just really boring, I think I would have preferred if you just shoot the crap out of it like the OG games instead of using the soul cube lol. It does kinda feel like a demo for all the horror stuff. I didn't touch on the main theme but yeah it's pretty good actually

@@thelastmikester I wouldn't mind if the soul cube was something like a health reducer for it. Maybe it has like 10M health and each soul cube attack reduces the health by 1M (just giving a poor model of how it could be, the numbers could surely differ) but you can also shoot the ever living shit out of it so it dies.

from my memory doom 3 only started to get hate around when doom 2016 released. There used to be all kinds of videos people made that were doom 3 in the dark playthroughs. Its regaining its fanbase now as people are hating on the new doom games for not being scary anymore as you are a all powerful demon slayer.

It did indeed. There was not "its a good game, not a doom game" quote before 2016 was released. Before 2016 it wasnt hated, it was at most ignored by the original Doom groups. But after 2016 its like the new players just found out about Doom and heard Doom 3 isnt like the classic ones and decided to shit on it

@@God.EmperorBran Yeah that's fair, I know some people have said there was mixed reactions on launch but not major hate or anything. As for the new games not being scary anymore, well, I would say being an all powerful demon slayer is kinda the whole point of Doom. Like I said in the video, the OG games had slices of horror, but it was never the focus ya know. Doom 2016 was more tense than scary to me if that makes sense. I didn't find Doom 3 that scary, and I'm really bad with horror so I guess take that for what it is lol. All just my opinion of course, thanks for the comment and for reading if you did :)

@@xyzz8722 Yeah I don't know know when those quotes came into play so I can't comment on that. I guess players realized how the new games took inspiration from the old ones and Doom 3 was kinda of the weird stepchild so they decided to shit on it. I don't know if some of them even played it, so that's why I gave Doom 3 a fair shake and actually played it before criticizing it. Not my style of Doom game, but if you like it and aren't an asshole about it, then I don't have a problem with that

Such a hidden masterpiece, doom 3 is the best selling doom game fun fact! 🦊 Unfortunately the bfg edition isn't a good port and ruins the og doom 3 experience. Did you also find the hidden dev notes at the end of the game? they put a bunch of passion and new ideas into doom 3 and they show it. You can even see alot of doom 3 in doom 2016s design from weapons and enemies. Doom 3 is doom but just more spooky than previous doom titles, you still murder demons first and foremost 😊

And sorry didn't see the rest of your message there, I did not find the dev notes no.
