Don't get me wrong, I'm the guy that was jizzing over Lost Civilization a while ago. I just really appreciate all the tacticool and gore porn BD throws at me. I love Doom and wouldn't trade it for anything, but BD could've been a competitor title with different graphics but the same stupid bullshit that was released a year or two later, and it would've sold like hotcakes. It would've been the CoD4 to Halo 3.

Granted, I'm playing it on realism mode, and I'm playing on a version that's like 5 years old. But at the same time an imp dies to two bullets. A single shotgun blast murders anything weaker than a pinky and cripples a pinky at medium to short range.

It literally is the CoD of Doom, but that's why it's cool. A single imp fireball fucks me up, and I'm pretty sure a hell noble can knock me from 100/100 to 30/50 easily. It's been so long since I last played, but I know me running into a noble green ball will ruin my life.

But I get to be a tacticool airsoft nerd that pops around a corner and blind fires just in case, get rewarded with a couple zombies and imps dying and screaming in agony, and then I can step back and reload. Or maybe instead of stepping back, I twitch to 1 or 2 other targets, and maybe my aim is dead on, or maybe I only hit them cuz of spread and recoil, or maybe I just miss. Then I pop back into cover.

And my second reward for all of this is hearing the stupid "click clack clck" of the magazine bouncing around. And of course, a bunch of hellion faggots dying in agony, or screaming in anger.

Like I said at the beginning of this autistic ramble, I'd never trade Doom for anything. But I don't quite get the same visceral "yeah you dumb faggot die" feeling that BD provides. Blood splatters on the walls in way too high of a resolution to properly meld with unfiltered Doom, and it splatters on my face screen, and an imp is hugging his disemboweled guts and howling the repeated "AUNGH AUNGH AUNGH" imp pain noise that they make.
