Of course it has to be the super shotgun in doom but in some situations it is a bit overpowered. The starting area in sunlust map 24 (pic related) is very balanced though.

AS no good

suh

gunman chronicles (hl1 mod, sorry if not vr) had shotgun with 12 fire modes

If this actually qualifies as a shotgun then yes, it's the most satisfying weapon I've ever used in a game.

The Slugthrower in Soldier of Fortune also deserves a mention.

Blood's sawed-off shotgun is god-tier. It's very well-animated and has a super meaty sound effect which, combined with the awesome gibs, makes it extremely satisfying to use. Plus unlike the super shotgun you can choose whether to fire both barrels or just one.

On the other hand, Duke Nukem's is really weak. The animation is just meh and the sound is terrible.

What window manager is that? i3? That looks sexy as hell

This one is fun

easily my favourite vidya shotgun ever. nothing else comes close.

it's not a common opinon but I really like Quake's shotguns -- both of them. it's mainly due to the fast weapon switching I guess, as you can switch to them whenever you like. it just makes for really fluid combat without break, and the combination of this with the few hitscan enemies and advanced movement are the reasons for me why Quake feels so damn good. a lot of the time the ssg in quake for me is sort of the exclamation mark at the end of a gunfight, where it's a habit to switch to it after launching a grenade or shooting nails to confirm the kill. meanwhile the normal shotgun is a good sniper for those more distant enemies. and when you get that quad damage power up and blast enemies into piss from close range they feel damn good. plus I really like the thumping sound of the SSG and how it reloads so quickly.

This. Also, nice webms

Yes it is i3. Almost default settings on it, just a little tidying up and change of colors.

>>4943043
Great point, I’ll never like quake guns as much as dooms, but I understand the feeling you are describing. I appreciate someone that analyzes quality in the way that my pretentious ass does, and you did that.

Whatever's the lever action shotgun model used as the cowboy shotgun on Doom: Golden Souls 2.
Great sprites, cool cycling and reloading animations, plus great sound effects as the cherry on top.

is this a wolfenstein clone?

>>4948178
Yes. Shitty shareware game with... Really eerie game design.

There's no music at all. Just kind of off-kilter ambient sound effects, like metal banging or wind blowing.

Also sometimes you see posters of women with their big tits out. I think it was supposed to be a kid's game.

Nice animation though.

I really appreciate Doom for making shotguns into high powered rifles.

Turn off the filters. Thank you.

Most FPS rifles have an effective range similar to a real life shotgun's.

I like the triple shotgun from nexuiz.

Blood

If you haven't yet I highly suggest shooting a 12 gauge in real life. They are just as fun as videogames make them seem if not more fun.

wonder what your high score will be. you think you'll beat the columbine guys? what about cho?

>>4948190
the game isn't that shitty, the graphics are pretty colorful and I like the maps and the fact the spooky ambiance sounds and the silence builds tension

>>4948202
More like closer to real life shotguns, actually.

super shotgun from Quake 2

because you can push enemies with it

>>4942367
Surprised the dual shotguns from Marathon haven't been mentioned yet. I know /vr/ isn't very keen on Marathon in general but you have to admit the shotguns are fucking top notch.

It's funny how bad Q2 looks, and how good Q1 does in comparison.
