Will DOOM Dark Ages have mod support?

[Tazor]

Yeah, it looks cool and all that. Eternal was a lot of fun. But after 4 playthroughs I feel like I squeezed everything out of it. There is no longevity. No reason to spend more than a few euros on it.

I'm still playing the original DOOM. So many mods. So many custom campaigns. So many still being made and constantly updated.

The original DOOM is infinite. Eternal is not infinite.

I don't think its even remotely fair to state that they "objectively" suck. On their own merits and in a time vaccuum they're still great games that deserve to be played and appreciated today.

They are simple games compared to what we get today. That said, the people who made them put a lot of thought and effort into building Doom1/Doom2 that enhanced their look and feel to a level that's somewhat timeless. The sound and rhythm of the weapons, movement, how demons look and feel. They feel "simple" and streamlined - even familiar - because id went the extra mile designing them.

It has aged much better than games like them have any right to, and it's because people put so much work into the design. The fact people are still creating for these games today is simply incredible.

No sense in making sense man. It's a new generation who just can't get it and I don't blame them. For those who were there, upgrading rigs every few months to play these games, doing all the tweaks, overclocks, pencil modding and dip-switching to get even one more frame...a bygone era of gaming rising with the foundational tech upon which games are now played. It was a blast and I feel privileged to have been part of it, but it's like trying to show a teenager an early cell phone...ain't gonna fly. They weren't there and we aren't either anymore. But yeah, playing Unreal on my 16MB Riva TNT...fun times.

Doom was a great game and on its own merits, it remains so. In comparison with modern titles of course it struggles and as such, there is no sense in doing so.

Eternal is infinite because the skill ceiling is the highest in any single player FPS game ever made and I eternally suck at it so I'll never be as good as I want to be. Need to keep playing.

as long as you have fun, it's all that matters, it isn't necessary to "git gud". :)

I guess the only thing you saw is the original in 640x480.

Unlikely, considering they sound like a minor. They probably played the Unity port. Zooooooom
