>SIGIL™ is a free megawad for the original 1993 DOOM® created by John Romero. It contains nine single-player and nine deathmatch levels. The free megawad will be released in mid- February 2019 and requires players own the original 1993 registered version of DOOM® in order to play. SIGIL™ is the spiritual successor to the fourth episode of DOOM®, and picks up where the original left off.
>In addition to the free megawad, SIGIL also releases in two limited edition fan boxes created by Limited Run Games. The fan boxes feature music by metal guitar legend Buckethead, including a custom song written expressly for SIGIL, and cover art by Christopher Lovell whose iconic, detailed work has been featured on numerous metal albums. (Note: The free megawad does not ship with Buckethead’s music or Christopher Lovell’s art.)
Site tl;dr: Romero wants you to pre-order his new free megaWAD and even includes a fancy box and metal music as a bonus.
Unfortunately I only have the Marathon infographic. I'd appreciate it if someone else can post the rest.
Also DUSK is coming out of Early Access today, I figure this thread is probably the place for it even though it's only retro in style.

not much variation, level design progressivley gets worse, the only threat to the player is running out of ammo or encountering multiple hitscan enemies. once you get ot the later and harder levels you face lots of demons that are no threat whatso ever as you can just strafe out of the way and shoot the hell out of them, because it was made in 1993 and was one of the first sterotype FPS games it doesnt do anything special, the only uniqueness is the setting and demon killing, once you've played one episode of doom you have played them all, with the final episode being the only good one as it uses the hellish landscape to its advantage, instead of being just more generic UAC shit

You'd have to dick around with ZScript. I believe if you wanted to make it so monsters don't notice you as much, there's a variation of A_Look that lets you specify a radius, otherwise you could just override it for that specific actor and do a simple calculation with Distance2D(v1, v2). If you post more specific about what you are trying to do, I can take a look for you if you're new to ZScript.

>you get rinky-dink dual pistols which you never use, dual shotguns for dispatching squishies at medium range, a super shotty for one shotting tougher enemies, a grenade launcher whose grenades can be remote detonated to hit stuff around corners, a crossbow which penetrates through enemies and the environment, a hunting rifle which is basically a railgun, an assault rifle for rapid moving down of squishies, and a stupendously powerful rapid-fire rocket launcher, and a cigar, the weapon balance is alright
>you also get a magic sword whose attack can be charged to one-shot most enemies provided you have more than 100 health, and can also deflect back projectiles if you have more than 50 health, acting as a kind of rich get richer mechanic by letting you ammolessly kill stuff quicker if you don't let yourself get hit
>the weapons do feel satisfying to use with punchy sounds, visual effects and hit sounds, only the explosive weapons sound rather lame
>there's no hitscan at all, it's all projectiles and melee, hence why everything is really fast and hits like a truck, later on medkits feel especially scarce, and some parts are downright first-person bullet hell at times
>while there's plenty of enemy types, there's not many which are really that fundamentally different and also pose an immediate threat (though this depends largely where they are placed), there's a lot of straight projectile throwing enemies with a minor twist or more health or enemies which fire a spread of fast projectiles, you don't have something like the Mancubus or Cyberdemon or Archvile which demands your immediate attention
>you will find yourself switching weapons often to suit the situation, but the roles for all enemies aren't as stand out
>there are some interesting enemies, but they only appear in later episodes and are sadly not used as often, so most of the time you're fighting the same grunts, I would have loved to see an NG+ mode where all the earlier levels also feature late-game enemies like in Overload
>the models look like crap despite going for the retro style, not gonna lie, you can only expect as much from a graphics standpoint when it's one guy doing all the texturing, modeling, programming, and level design
>but the levels themselves do manage to be genuinely atmospheric through use of lighting and general architecture, it's kind of a meme repeated several times through the game that a fall will break your flashlight, which leaves you temporarily in the dark trying to find another flashlight
>the game surprisingly isn't a big "I got that 90's reference" meme tour either, most of that is relegated to the secrets, as the game is largely genuine about its horror atmosphere which changes from innawoods to industrial Silent Hill horror and then to mindfuck Lovecraftian horror, especially the music and sound design help accentuate it
>the soundtrack is actually dynamic and has unique beats for each major encounter
>there's a short level largely dedicated to introducing an enemy which is invisible until shot and makes constant breathing noises in a spooky environment
>the style of level design can't really be generalized, it's a mix of claustrophobic keyhunt mazes, outdoor enemy bullet hell bonanzas, and off-the-wall gimmick territory the likes of which make levels even more unique and simply couldn't be done in Doom (and maybe Build games), I guess that's a testament to the variety in level design
>you also get power-ups like a climbing power-up which lets you climb any wall for a medium amount of time with levels built around it, and a power-up which turns the game into Superhot
>there's also power-ups which double your rate of fire, and the effect is stackable
>the level design is pretty good, different enemy types are mixed together with different level layouts to splice unique encounters, and the layouts of most levels are complex enough to not make the beaten path incredibly obvious, while still using signposting and landmarks to make parts of the level recognizeable and easy to follow without getting lost
>there's a lot of secrets, secrets-within-secrets, and some which require that you use some of the physics objects to trigger them

>the last handful of levels actually feel like the lead-up to the big finale with a level which is a grand tour of all the environments you've been through and enemies you've faced, followed by a short and off-beat level which is more introspective in nature which hypes up the next final fight

It takes a lot after Blood, Quake, and Redneck Rampage, but it manages to create its own sense of identity through gameplay, level design, and setting while still holding true to the design philosophies of the era it seeks to emulate, and not feeling like yet another Doom clone or WAD. It's not as tight as it could be, especially in regards to enemy design and boss fights, but it's still damn good, and it manages a level of creativity which reminds me of what Blood: Deathwish would've done had the Build Engine been true 3D. DUSK's very much worth playing.

Are you retarded?
That said, Dusk definitely has some issues, but I think they're mostly with the level design. Too often they just throw you in huge open spaces with a fuckton of enemies or a fuckton of nothing. Other times it just feels unfocused and kind of eh. The secrets are also way too easy to find and I really dislike how there's shit like an obvious secret at the start of the first level which skips you past most of the level, which iirc skips some other secrets. Additionally, there is a secret super shotgun right at the start which is just too much, too quickly.
They also really could've tried harder to create some interesting movement. Just holding left or right and turning while jumping with no rhyme or rhythm is retarded and makes it ridiculously easy to go sanic speeds with complete control over your character.

He is right, but for neither of you retrokids bullshit reasons.
Old games didn't try to be retro: they sure as hell didn't look back for yesteryear gud gaem's inspiration, but most importantly did not consider their own rules a sacred and healthy teamplate like you do. They struggled for excellency and moved forward. You can see how old games capitalized on everything new they tried.
Retro games celebrate nostalgia; they lack this push forward, or outright demonize modernization; often times are made by people who were still in diapers back then, and cannot really tell what it was like to play Doom in 93.

Then he came back with a non-apology apology because he probably didn't like the community anymore and that really cemented him in the minds of balding 40 year old Doom autists across the globe.

Anyone who claims to be a "purist" angry that it brought too many "undesirables" into the community doesn't understand how markets work.

They are more bloated, but the older versions were shit because all of the bullet weapons were still hitscan.

That gameplay is almost standard. What I tend to do is browse the ZDoom mods forum, click on a topic that looks interesting and read the OP. People have been modding this game for ages and their OPs tend to be concise and include screens and videos. I don't know how much extra punch you want, but there's a lot of BD clones to try and it takes minimal time and effort – for the most part it's a pk3 file that you drag and drop on ZDoom.exe, you try it for 10 minutes and if it sucks then it sucks.

It is a short coming. Most people don't upgrade GZDoom until they need to because if it ain't broke, why fix it?
All that shitty survey did was get an idea what the autistis that use the absolute latest version of GZDoom have in terms of hardware. Randy knew this, which is why Windows 9x was supported for so long. This was just Rachael trying to help Graf justify his need that you need a bleeding edge machine to run GZDoom.
In short, she's sucking up to Graf. This mainly happened because last Christmas Graf had a meltdown about a mod that only worked with ZDoom's software mode, and this was her way of sucking up to him. The bitch is a snake.

The way the data collection itself was handled was ethically. Ranting about that as if it's Microsoft is unhelpful noise. The intent of phasing out older systems is the misguided part because Graf already whines enough about shockingly written mods (sometimes validly) but chasing more and more flashy but expensive visual effects will only make life worse for everyone. I'm expecting it to backfire hard.
Right now though there is the low-end build. That's projected for dropping after the next official release or two though.

I never said it was unethical. I said all it did was report what the regulars of ZDoom.org are using and not all ZDoom players who don't religiously check the forums. Had I not seen it in the Doom thread here, I would not have known about it. Hell I missed the second survey because it happened while I was busy doing other stuff.
I also said that rach used it as a reason to suck up to Graf. I believe rach even wrote the code.
>Graf already whines enough about shockingly written mods (sometimes validly)
Depending on what he complains about, I can agree. Though sometimes he can be right, but suggest an utterly retarded solution. ZScript was supposed to be Lua and Randy was going to do it before more incompatibilities started, but Graf whined that he didn't like Lua. Now we have ZScript and it's a clusterfuck of issues from all the old legacy decorate crap.

He's an idiot to complain about it since it's not intended to be compatible with anything but ZDoom. The mod is basically hacking that engine to do things. I'd also like to see this spergout because there was also the time a while ago he stopped developing GZDoom for a while.
>never said it was unethical
You might not have but the majority of people seem to make that mistake. Also they give at least some time for people to jump on it, last survey had 10000 separate reports or something fairly large. So I would say they're getting at least a representative sample of the userbase.
>Depending on what he complains about
ZScript's had its share of deficiencies pointed out, but by far the biggest one I'd argue is piling it onto an already ugly mess of modding stuff, and he's always pointing out shitty standards in the original ZDoom. Would've been a good idea to distance from all that like Eternity Engine might end up doing.
>>15862488
To play what? Be more helpful. For mods you can generally find what engine they work on, most use GZDoom, some also work on Zandronum or regular ZDoom. For vanilla-style stuff you want Prboom or Chocolate Doom.

Four missions in Dusk and I'm not really feeling it.

UV can put up a fight on harder maps, but Nightmare! difficulty is the actual test.

Oh man when Romero said Brutal Doom is the way Doom is meant to be played, the community shit itself in autistic rage. He actually walked that comment back a bit because of the hate he got on Twitter. Meanwhile Doom forums exploded with this narrative that Doom was a super atmospheric horror game… only for that to get blown away by Id developers talking about how Doom was fast, dirty, and metal as fuck. It got to the point that Zdoom (and to a lesser extent, Zandronum) forums were saying all the Id devs were wrong about Doom.
I've been playing Doom since it came out, the Doom community, as it exists on the forums, is retarded now. They're like Shakespeare scholars trying to read hidden meanings out of every fucking pixel in the game, trying to appreciate it as if it were high art and not just a game about some psycho badass ripping demons apart to a metal soundtrack.

I frequently wonder how and why the "atmospheric horror" crowd got attached to the classic Doom community. The way I see it, there's a very limited set of criteria:
> You have to have played classic Doom originally, but only the PSX version
> You started/only played Doom 64 and not any classics
> You only played Doom 3 and not nuDoom or any classics
Everything else flies utterly in the face of that concept. You run faster than any FPS hero has run before. The game can be played like a 2D bullet hell game (there are in fact mods based around this concept). The colors are wacky and all over the place; in Hell it's a little creepier, but even as a 6 year old kid the gore was far too pixellated for me to even think twice about it. My thought was "Must be blood and guts," and kept playing.

Painkiller is basically inspired by Quake but lacks good leveldesign. instead you hop from arena to arena and kill monsters. It's pretty decent.
Dusk, while having a Quake inspired artstyle, plays more like Painkiller. Its leveldesign is basically like a mix of Quake and Painkiller. A lot of arena, like Painkiller, but also some actual level design like Quake.
This doesn't make it better than quake though. Not by along shot.

>keywork TRYING to emulate, it failed hard and lacks features that made quake great
If I can kill enemies with a single super shotgun blast, then trying to emulate Quake probably wasn't its highest priority
There's a notable difference in how DUSK plays compared to most other classic shooters, which is that it's the closest thing to a first-person bullet hell shooter, a sentiment which becomes more obvious on DUSKMARE where you die in one hit of anything (except the environment incidentally) and have to git gud at dodging projectiles, whereas in Doom/Quake/etc. damage was considered an inevitability and no damage runs of those games are very level dependent for whether they even allow it (without being reliant on RNG to not get hit by hitscan enemies). I can't really think of any other FPS with a 1HKO mode like this
DUSK's levels can't really be generalized. Sometimes they're Quake-like gauntlets, sometimes they're Painkiller-like arenas, sometimes they're something else entirely. At the very least you can say it is varied. Though I think DUSK is more reminiscent of Build Engine level design with its interactivity and heavy usage of scripted events. I still prefer Quake over DUSK because DUSK's enemy variety is just wank when a lot of enemies are slight variations of others due to the no-hitscan rule imposed on ranged enemies, while some of the more interesting enemies are only relegated to Episode 2/3. Same goes for melee enemy behavior where they always stop moving before attacking, whereas it's the constant movement of the Fiend and Death Knight in Quake which made them threatening up close. It made sense for only the Shambler to stop moving before attacking because it had a long-range hitscan attack anyways.
At its core it still plays very well and it does stand out if you look under the surface, like being able to climb anything with the power-up and being able to punch back bullets, and it manages a journey and a sense of cohesive progression much better than any other classic shooter whose levels felt like abstract renditions of real-life places strung together with no cohesion. Some nerd once said that story is expected to be there and not as important as gameplay, which is definitely true, but story and whatever it entails isn't something to be ignored, as it can enhance whatever you've got. Not like DUSK got much of a story, but there is a palpable ride which makes the game a bit more the sum of its parts and is worth examining in this regard at least.

A proper sourceport of Blood doesn't exist, the sourcecode is lost. The only one worth checking out is BloodGDX but you're still better off using dosbox. Don't forget to use the mouse fix and sound looping fix if you're going the dosbox route.

It works perfectly. same with the sequel. I still think $20 is a bit too much for what is basically a sourceport which are usually free for most other old games that have them. Still if you're looking to play the turok games on PC theyre pretty much your only option.

Yes, it's a nice smooth ride and no loading screens during play. Note if you find it too easy you can bump up the difficulty in the menu screen options. Modding scene was killed because they wait one year for GOG to get the level editor (it's out now FYI) and you still can't do animations inside the editor.
Not worth $20 though.

I think it gets better by episode 2(currently e2m2), but the more I'm playing it the more something is really eating at me.
Every ranged enemy stops before doing their melee attack. It completely breaks the pace of a lot of the ranged combat and until you get to those giant butchers who fire rapidly at you(in other words, episode 2) ranged combat is a slog that's only saved by enemy placement and numbers.
I will say the game feels more suited to Duskmare than any of the other difficulty modes and I really want to restart episode 1 on a duskmare run, but there's the matter of that crocodile boss that spits out a near undodgable low damage attack that seems like a wall.

everything is based around physics, do a thing like pile a bunch of bricks on a see saw to progress or collect blue barrels to use in raising a platform, the gameplay is extremely shallow, the enemies run and shoot, some stay in place and shoot or just be scripted to stay within an area. a large portion of the game is boat/driving sections with long stretches of road and emptyness, the game itself feels empty most of the time with not much friendly NPCs or combine soldiers despite them owning earth and having these huge defences everywhere, chances are you wont see more than 8 soldiers in one place, cept maybe nova prospect or the highway. the games most notable and memorable section is theravenholm E3 2003 tech demo, Oooohh, physics ahhhh spinny blade, yabba my icing. you are constantly in these "cutscene" segments where you are stuck in an area and must wait for an NPC to finish their conversation before doing anything, same thing with these scripted sequences.
best thing in the game is that you can bring a TV from the first level all the way through to the end of the game. the only good thing to do if you have or want to play HL2 is to download some source mods and play those instead or just get SMOD to make the game not mindnumbingly boring

When it comes to gameplay everything is inferior to the first one. When it comes to content, weapon variety, enemy variety and level variety all suffer in comparison. It is essentially structured like a tech demo, with each chapter showing off a different capability of the engine.

Are we really going to bring this up again because you faggots have awful taste? The levels just sucked. There was almost no variety in environment compared to the first game, and they sucked mechanically.
Here, I'll break it down. I'll presume that you can concede that the driving sections sucked, because everyone I've talked to agrees on that. So there's a significant chunk that sucks right off the bat.
The part with the platforming and activating towers to not get raped by antlions wasn't the worst part of the game but it was still mediocre.
Ravenholm sucked, because it was a tedious slog of killing zombies over and over again with conveniently placed traps. It wasn't even hard, just mind numbing.
The bug bomb was a cool item that was used for all of a single fucking mission and never mentioned again. So that entire mission was effectively a gimmick as well. Wonderful.
The final sequence, while not the worst part of the game, was certainly much less interesting than Xen. inb4 faggots who can't long jump
So that leaves… which parts of the game that are decent? The prison and maybe the highway (without the buggy)? Maybe the urban fighting with the resistance?
So now let me ask you: what parts of the game were good, exactly?

The thing is, the first game had most of the same issues- but the level design and enemy variety made up for that along with better weapon selection. I will agree that that the sequels did it far worse however. Doesn't really help that the majority of enemies are just basic metrocops and headcrabs in HL2 either.
I suppose that's to be expected with a game they scrapped half of and remade so close to release.

If I remember correctly, when you don't count the train ride at the beginning and "Anomalous Materials", the interactive cutscenes where you wait for a character to open a door are pretty few, short and far between each other. HL2, on the other hand, doesn't really begin up until the teleporter fucks up and you end up outside of Kleiner's lab, by which point probably more than half an hour has already passed. You get to the airboat, then you get to wait until a gun is mounted on the airboat, then you get to fucking "Black Mesa East" - another half an hour wasted, then another cutscene right before "Highway 17", and so on and so on. The abysmally slow player speed doesn't help. Truly a shame that we didn't get HL2 Beta as the final game - it did have the enemy/weapon/environment variety.
At the very least the HL1 train ride could be skipped with a console - in HL2 once you do that with Black Mesa East, you'll lose your weapons.

With our realm on the precipice of annihilation, we turned inward towards the one entity we feared more. The one that annihilated the kingdom of purity. The mortals assumed it was our master; but their "devil" was something far more sinister; One formerly of their own, locked away for it's madness, it's machinations to annihilate reality itself.
And yet, we bargained with it so that we may survive longer; a foolish attempt to stop the slaying of our kin.
Though he wanders into it's line of fire; the mortal knows not what he is about to unleash; His death inevitable; we were sent to destroy his world. One which was long ago born out of a sliver of primordial hellspawn.
Now? We signed our own annihilation. He's about to wake up; and soon all shall know the agony brought upon by the Omnipredicated."

Assuming full mouselook because the original games allow mouse. There was even that tool that lets you disable movement on the Y axis that Chocolate Doom emulates.

The regular form is doable but really tough depending on where he is. But I was mostly talking about his EX form because that one can absolutely fuck you over at random depending on where he chooses to summon those shotgun turret things. Sometimes it's right on top of you and you can only barely circle-strafe their fire at a distance. The most humiliating part is that the difference between the two is just that the EX form is unleashing his full power. Normal is just having fun with you.
Also yeah Black Cyberdemon can go fuck himself too when he decides to make the floor lava. That's also not possible to deal with in some situations on top of killing the framerate.

Here's the demo for >>15894068
You should only play it up until you beat the Programmer, the first real boss. Definitely don't try killing the alien things later on. They seem to be invincible or something. Don't know why
-Make sure you bind keys to GZDoom's 'reload' and 'zoom' keys. 'Reload' is used to swap firing modes for some weapons, and 'zoom' is used for your power fist. Hold it down for maximum power
-If the LMG (slot4) seems like it has too much muzzle climb when it fires, that's because it will decrease when you get stamina upgrades. I figured since those things contexually make you stronger, it'd be neat if that meant you could better control the kick from weapons. I may nerf how much muzzle climb the LMG starts with though
-Double-tap 'strafe left', 'strafe right' or 'move backward' to do a dodge. This can be done on the ground & air. On the ground, double-tap 'move forward' and hold to sprint. Release to end. Both cost stamina (blue thing above your armor readout). Stamina regens, after a short delay. If you let it deplete completely, regen is delayed for longer. When you get stamina upgrades from the medic in the base, you'll be able to sprint longer and evade more before running out
-All of the items in your inventory bar can only be used when your weapon is idling. Many of your items like the Hazard Suit, Defense Screen and Stealth Suit are not one-time-use; you can activate and deactivate them to save their charge.
-Ammo, health and armor are scarce, so when you're low on something, buy more from the vendors. Don't count on getting what you need from a map.
-When you complete a mission, you earn Upgrade Credits. These are spent on upgrades for your player, your weapons, and your equipment. You trade them in at vendors, usually Gerard and Feris at the Front Base. I'd change it so you always get them there, but that'd be confusing because the game tells you to go to the town medic & Irale for upgrades. Anyway, you get five credits per completed mission, and all upgrades, regardless of what they are, cost 1 credit. You can pretty much spend them on whatever you want, in no particular order. In the demo, you can only get up to four each of the stamina and accuracy upgrades, and you'll only have access to the first level of the ammo, health pack and armor expansions. You can't get the mods for the slot 5 & 6 weapons.
-Check the 'Erimix Opts' section of the main menu to change some things. You can choose to disable the credit, money & quest item readouts if you think they clutter the HUD, as well as scale how often you see more dangerous versions of the standard guard enemies.
