Doom 1: Don't Panic - 7.4.1994 - Vanilla & Hard Doom - 100% on Ultra-Violence - (7)
Doom Classic video #7
(7.4.1994)
(Links, secrets and more information at the bottom of the description)
Hello. Time for the 7th video and I just realized after this recording that I could check some dates from the wad-files themselves, when day isn't mentioned, which was the case on this one.
I was going to set the date to ??.4.1994, but the wad had been modified on 7th day of April, so there's that for more obvious clue.
Level is quite simple in its style, although it also mixes in different textures quite a bit, so the theme becomes quite random. It's also said to be more puzzle-oriented, but I couldn't really agree with that, how it played like.
Map's name was also built into the level and you saw that occasionally with old wads.
I suppose this could be the 1st example of this.
Level worked fine and there was some action to it, but mostly still staying in the easy-side of the quick adventure.
Like mentioned in the video, gate at the start can get annoying due to the need of travelling through its 'randomness' few times... and you end up needing to get back to the room with teleporters more than once, which is a bit of a hassle itself, because of the route.
Probably was more intimidating back in the day, but it certainly didn't cause any panic here!
But it was alright for a quick blasting through anyways.
