What the shit /vr/ -- why are these terrible levels in anotherwise superior port of Doom?

Kek.

Maps simplified & heights drastically reduced, much darker lighting than the original maps, no arch viles, no icon of sin, cyberdemon/spider mastermind appearance greatly reduced, drastically reduced monster count in general due to ram limitations, weapon animation frames cut, texture resolutions reduced, no nightmare difficulty, runs slow as fuck.

The music is literally the only good thing about the psx port.

>>	Anonymous Tue Oct 17 05:07:02 2017 No.4332670 >>4332564 Name a better port though as >>4332618 said. You probably can't because OP is right about what he said. With that said of course Doom is best played with a sourceport.

>>	Anonymous Tue Oct 17 07:01:36 2017 No.4332779 >>4332581 It's just such a disappointment everytime I get through Doom. Finish up the amazing Ultimate Doom levels after blasting through what is otherwise Jaguar Doom, and then bam, two terrible, long levels right in a row.

>>	Anonymous Tue Oct 17 16:58:22 2017 No.4333853 >>4332564 >no arch viles Is this supposed to be a bad thing?

>>	Anonymous Wed Oct 18 06:31:42 2017 No.4335086 >>4332982 PS1 Doom was good. I liked it. Therefore it is a decent port.
