Would it be more fondly remembered today if they made it a System Shock clone?

I don't think this is worthy of its own thread so I'd rather get your opinions.

this is not doom

heh nothing personal, kid

My ideal "Doom 3" start would be the intro to "Doom 3" but instead of mars city being dead and destroyed, the city is holding out with loads of people dead or dying in the hallways as the hospital is overran with patients.

Bravo team has been sent to get help just as your entering, in fact they would pass you while your entering.

Your mission would be to link up with Bravo who are traveling via the surface bypassing much of the damage base.

Your stuck traveling via the Base as the monorail is currently being used to evacuate people from alpha labs.

That's really all, I've got.

What's the best Doom 3 source port?

Bethesda just gave away the original Doom 3 for free to people who bought the BFG edition.

What are some essential mods?

About to play picrelated and am about to play it, what to expect? Loved the other 5 DOOM games.

Playing Doom 3 for the first time. Wow, this is bad. This is more like a 6/10 generic 2000s FPS than Doom. Why is your character so slow? Why are the guns and enemies so subpar? Why are the levels so cramped? Where's the metal music? Why is the intro a copy of Half-Life? This is very disappointing to see such a mediocre game named after one of the most genius and revolutionary moments in gaming history.
