/vr/ - Retro Games

Alright, /vr/. I've never played Doom. Ever. And I want to change that. I do know it's a game with a very active fanbase, and that it has tons of mods, alternate versions, unofficial patches and whatnot. So I've come here to ask, for someone who has never played a Doom game and wants to play it on a modern pc, what should I download so I can enjoy the most out of the experience?

Also, Doom General, I guess

The greatest game ever. Pic related.

Recommend me a good FPS, /vr/. Just did a playthrough of Doom and Doom 2 and I'm jonesin' for more classic shooters.

DOOM. Not remade, but a sequel that expands upon the gameplay mechanics in DOOM due to the available technology and not use modern FPS conventions.

What difficulty do you guys play on DOOM? I'm asking about the first one, btw. I've been playing Ultra-Violence, but I realized that Nightmare is really intense. It's a lot of fun.
For those who are experts at nightmare, how long did it take for you guys to get good at it for it to no longer be a challenge, if at all.

FPS "games" are truly the worst cancer vidya has ever faced.

What was your first game? Pic related. (Not my screenshot, as if I would already have 61% health)
