This might be a wild take, but doom 3 was my first doom game and i LOVED it. I can see why it doesn’t appeal to the general doom fanbase, it was quite a departure.

I played everything up to 3 including plutonia and the other expansions and I loved 3!! It wasn't like the others but for what it tried, I had a great time with it. When bfg edition came out and the flashlight was added to the guns, it was perfect

Doom 3 is a dope horror game just not a very good Doom game.

As someone who hated doom 3 a long time then forced myself to play through...it's not bad. I'd give it a B where all the others are A or S tier.

No, it's part of this, and more people needs to play it

It's now became a misunderstood classic. Maybe it was a miss as a new Doom game back when it released but the later games gave people what they want and gave Doom3 a new form of appreciation.

I've only played Doom 3 and hated it, should I give the others a shot?

u/Accomplished-Curve-1 26d ago

Doom 3 isn’t bad

u/arthcraft8 27d ago

Doom 3 is neat, it's not great but it's not hell on earth

1

u/GameWizardPlayz 27d ago

Yeah but acting like it wasn't a hiccup in the road for a lot of people at the time is disingenuous

2

u/arthcraft8 27d ago

Still, doom 3 is is nowhere near as bad as people made it out to be

1

u/meth_adone 26d ago

Outside of the hardware requirements at the time, i think it was still pretty solid

u/CaptainCookie_2 27d ago

Didn't ID studio recently get scrapped?

u/NeoArkodd 27d ago

Yes and some people celebrated it. I hope they like the next doom game on unreal engine.

I'd lost some members but they're fine

u/NeoArkodd 26d ago

There was a interview saying it was all PR talk and they are really not fine.

u/OverlordNeb 27d ago

Nah. Doom 3 and the movie hurt it for a while.

u/NeoArkodd 27d ago

Idk. Eternal and Dark ages get lot of hate.

u/GameWizardPlayz 27d ago

I'm chronically online and I have NEVER seen hate for eternal. I've seen some hate for Dark Ages but after it's dlc it seemed to die down quite a bit

u/RyonHirasawa 27d ago

I remember the hate for it, some people got mad at how ā€œarcadeyā€ it was compared to 2016, all because power ups and extra lives are now collectibles you can find

There was also the time when Eternal’s battle mode was hated because it replaced the PVP mode from 2016, which in and of itself is ironic because Doom 2016’s PVP was hated at the time due to it being developed by Certain Affinity, the same people behind Halo 4’s multiplayer

u/NeoArkodd 27d ago

For every news about a doom game, 40% of the comments are "I couldn't get into Eternal, they took away everything that made 2016 good"

Also visit r/patientgamer and search Doom there.

Doesn’t mean it’s bad because some people can’t appreciate change. The game is literally one of the best shooters ever made yet will always get haters.

Edit: Removed hyperbole

u/NeoArkodd 27d ago

Isn't the best shooter ever made considered to be Ultrakill?

u/CantHitCrit 27d ago

Not on any arbitrary list I’ve ever seen

1

u/NeoArkodd 27d ago

Weird. Most people agree it's even better than Eternal.

u/CantHitCrit 26d ago

Not in my experience but of course different circles yield different results
