I really tried to get into it, but the level design is horrible IMO.

I'm sad because i really wanted to like this one. 😔

Niveles de porquería que ni el freedoom tiene no puedo creer que esto esté hecho por bungie

Doom-cels seething over Mara-chads

easy but chill

A boomer shooter that requires a more tactical approach since all weapons reload, and you can't just tap "R" at any time. As a result the action is not as fluid as DOOM, but that also makes it stand out. You can play it in its original, boxed-in format for the "true" experience, but I'd recommend setting up one of the more modern HUD's (under Plugins) and setting the map to be an overlay.

Rather than key-hunting, you'll be switch-hunting and doing switch puzzles. Similar to DOOM, some secrets require running from one place to another. You may also need to utilize the grenade launcher on your assault rifle to get secrets, which is made possible by the floaty nature of the movement.

The story is excellent, for something told only through text found on terminals. You can ignore the story if you wish and just treat it as "kill the bad aliens", but you won't get the full experience. If you want the full story, you'll need to find a few hidden terminals as well. (There are guides for this.)

The level design at this point in the trilogy is decent, but has a lot of cramped halls that don't allow for much wiggle room. There are also a good amount of mazes, so the levels feel like something stuck between DOOM and Wolf3D in that regard. Still, as this was one of the first games to utilize mouselook, there is some verticality to some of the levels that just wouldn't work in DOOM at the time.

Overall, while the level design hasn't aged all that well, and the combat is not fast and furious, these remain good enough to support the great story. If you like boomer shooters and haven't played it yet, it's free and on Steam. If you get through this, you'll definitely want to play the next 2 games.
