In retro shooters like Doom, Blood, etc - when given the double-barreled shotgun, do you often find it useful when mods (or the vanilla game) give you the ability to fire one barrel at a time? Or do you rarely find use for that?

To me it *feels* like it's meant to be used that way mostly, to have a follow up shot ready for if the first one didn't down the target coming straight at you (as if you were hunting wildlife or something) and ALSO have the ability to fire both at the same time as the alt-fire, for those tougher enemies. It seems wasteful to always be firing both barrels at once - although you could argue that if you only wanted to use 1 shell, you could just use the regular pump shotgun. So I'm kind of torn there.

Thoughts?
