Hi.

@@murddeath Oh no

​@@murddeathI watched a video on that wad yesterday and my mind was blown. Genius design.

😂 incredible

I'm a bit later, but! Same story with E1M1 from quake)

no it´s a constant reminder to add monsters to the bodycount

@@Hunne2303 No, it's that Doom used to have red crosses on the medkits, but the Red Cross organization throws a tantrum when anything but them uses that red + sign, so many change the symbol or color of the +

@@OfficialDJSoru "Throws a tantrum" what a way to describe enforcing laws about war crime :D

@@Pawtacle It IS dumb when the symbol became unanimous with health back in the 90's. This looked more like crying about trademark infringement instead of a warcrime. Also, thinking countries out there aren't using the Geneva Convention as a suggestion is pretty naive.

@@Pawtacle I didn't know putting a red cross in a video game was a war crime

As someone with ADHD, I can't even tell what's wrong with these maps. Imagine living your entire life always confused and never able to remember any details about anything ever (like the layout of a DooM map), except that doctors tell you that there's nothing wrong with you and you're just lazy and/or just trying to get free drugs. At least dementia patients are taken seriously... On the bright side, I can go without watching a movie or playing a game for a few years, and then re-watch/re-play it after some time has passed, and it's brand new again to me.

@@Psythik thats not adhd lmao 😂. I think u have dementia.

⁠​⁠@@Psythik oh that’s so weird! I have adhd too but I don’t play enough games (only watch lets plays) so I almost never remember them. But movies and tv shows are branded into my brain and I’ll almost always remember the plot points tho I don’t remember characters. Rewatching just makes me bored cus it’s something I’ve already seen. I wish I could forget spoilers and watch my favourite shows or listen to my favourite music like it’s the first time Although I wouldn’t refer to dementia as a better option, cuz you won’t even notice you’re being taken care of (even then, most old age homes have underpaid, overworked caretakers that will often neglect patients who cannot denounce what is happening to them since they aren’t even aware of their lives). You’ll be stuck in a haze of memories that don’t make sense, that twist into your own mind prison. Lucidity is something we take for granted. The lazy part is true tho :/ (albeit by family and teachers, I was lucky to have a good child therapist)

@@Psythik Sadly, a lot of dementia patients are abused and dismissed by people they should be cared for. I know you meant it’s generally taken seriously as an issue, but as someone with ADHD I just wanted to remind the world that ableism is never cut and dry on what it does or doesn’t harm.

@@DeathnoteBB I have had ADHD for 40 years, ritalin worked the best, and it is not what you say it is. It is the inability to focus, but also the ability to focus greatly on certain things. I do not think you have adhd, I think you have something else if you are confused all the time. ADHD does not make you confused at all, it just makes your mind wander all the time, but when it is focused, it is REALLLLY focused.

Doom guy hasn't been eating walnuts

its like playing a bethesda game finding dead bodies and wondering was they like that by default or did they just fell from the sky and died

Almost perfect.

Yeah, you got it, sport!

I am really curious to see someone open up that final map that lacks a player start in an editor just to check it out

@@jimedstrom8191 It's probably just the default map... maps don't magically create themselves you know

I do wonder, does the name "phobos anomaly" mean something related to death?

:(

Your dad being the doom guy is wild. rip fly high doom dad

An old friend of mine has it and she is terrified at times because all of a sudden she can't figure where she is, everything is scary and unknown.

@@Flofutz Yeah, wouldn't wish that on anyone.

Dementia is so terrifying, I wouldn't wish it upon anyone

Always facing the toughest battles with the same expression. Even his battle with dementia.

@@TheRhalf more like unf unf

@@The-su4pjdoomguy forgor ☠️☠️☠️

This gave me a lesson in patience. I was gonna skip the video because I thought the changes were gonna be minimal. I almost didnt see the second half of the video.

Well the title says he has dementia. He’s not _trying_ to relive his past, he just is, because he has dementia. Dementia makes one remember the past more vividly than the present.

@@napstab100k honestly I think the subtle things were kinda more interesting. would have been great for this to be a more gradual process across maybe the whole game idk

Considering Doomguy does canonically have Hell PTSD, this video really hits hard.

Felt like a moment of clarity

It was terminal lucidity. It is a short moment before death when the pacient remembers something, sometimes recognising his/her family.

@@techleontius9161 Exactly...

@@techleontius9161 New concept for me, I had to go read up on it. Wow that's depressing.

@@techleontius9161 How...has science been able to know that about patients last memories?

yes, couldn´t remember that name, thanks for mentioning it...and yeah, E@tEoT is quite the load...how long is it again? 6 hours in total? it´s brutal in its own way...

First thought that came into my mind as well. Slow descent into hells hell.

​@@Hunne2303what's that wad about?

@@TheDoomer666 Not a wad, a music and sound experience that goes through the stages of dementia. it is not doom related whatsoever "Everywhere at the end of time' was a series exploring dementia, its advancement and its totality."

@@Eiyaa90 oh right my bad, ty! I knew the name sounded a little familiar. I've never taken the time to have a listen but it's now on my to-do list

Well from what we've seen from the level design in doom 2 i think we can say they did exactly that.

Don't give Satan ideas

Basically saying Nothing is more hellish than the capacity of your own mind

doom 1 and 2 has always had an interesting rendition of hell tbh, sure a lot of it is just generic hell but some of it is really unique and creepy. particularly with the marble walls and buildings with the strange imagery on the walls

shoot the person

(joke)

Honestly E1M6 and E1M7 made me feel sick I hope that no-one (myself included) ever has to go through this and I hope your relative gets better and in the past I have felt hopeless and to be honest suicidal when I was at school (I'm 20 now so 3 years ago i left school and much better) I'm autistic with adhd and it was such a rough time but I can't begin to imagine what it would be like to have dementia and I hope that I never ever ever have to find out... Edit: My comment made no sense at all and even after editing it it still barely makes any sense, might delete it lol.

Watching my father figure's mind crumble when I was very young profoundly affected my entire life.

Before my great granddad passed last year, he was having cases of dementia where apparently he started talking about going to work. He was like 96 and had been retired for many years. What was nice is he didn't forget me or his other great grandchildren

For someone who *has* played the original DOOM episode 1 many, many times the experience is jarring. At first you notice the obvious missing details like blank textures on walls, then you start wondering if certain things (like the red keycard in mission 2) are really where they are supposed to be or if they are slightly in the wrong place. Having a memory of the layout that turns out to be more and more wrong is very jarring.

Stay strong.

Hugs? 😿

I love the Doom soundtrack so I noticed the false start of the bassline near the start of E1M2's track... "Hmm, I think this is how the song goes?" kind of moment.

Totally a project like this, although this one is kind of hard to get if you have not played hours of doom before. You really appreciate it if you know these maps well

@@DrazkurHWyep really hit hard since ive played all these levels dozens of times

​@Cloudy Not necessarily. People who suffer from Dementia typically become incredibly lucid before they die

@Cloudy Its called terminal lucidity,and happes when a patient remembers everything for a moment,sometimes,even being able to recognize their own family before dying.

However terminal lucidity is rare so for most patients they die remembering nothing

This happened to my grandmother. She was practically non responsive for several years, but when she died (Mum was there when she did), she said that Nan become her old self for several minutes, remembering all sorts of things about her life, and then she said to Mum, "I have to go now, darling", laid back on her pillow, smiled, and died.

What is being depicted is the retrograde amnesia-like effects of dementia. People tend to lose their most recent memories first. My grandfather lost his English and thought he was in Germany. It has nothing to do with the moment of death, their level of lucidity and the memories that are accessible change from day to day and moment to moment.

Okay just thinking about this is not only comedically dark, but also fucking horrifying.

This could be a dream that Doomguy had while asleep, years later, as the Slayer. Trying to hold on to his beginnings so he can hold on to his identity. Eventually he'll just become a mindless killing machine that has to kill demons, but doesn't know why. Of course, having a fortress where he collects funko pops and electric guitars kinda sandbagged any attempt at seriousness in the story.

@@CrizzyEyes Even demon slayers have to take to their hobbies sometimes.

Doometia

Considering the Spider Mastermind is a giant brain on legs, it weirdly works.

I think it'll hit DOOM fans more than most watching this because we DO remember and know how these levels played out. We played them more than any other level in the entire DOOM franchise (thank you, shareware). We know something is off and it keeps getting worse as it goes on.

Well said.

@@cujoedaman Genuinely one of the scariest experiences i've had because i've played it more than the average person, and i _didn't_ recognize the later levels (M6 and M7 mainly). Was only after finishing did i get chills..

What's the backstory?

Doomguy has dementia, nuff said

​@@OblivionSoldierI see what you did there. 😂

play "my house"

​@@die_lokki287 it's mysterious and impressive sure, but not really sad With doomentia... This happens to real people. And it's so realistic and subtle too.

Or that it's time to stop playing old games and move to next phases of life.

DOOM never left.

@@acex222 That's true, and Quake never left neither. There's also an awesome trend of retro shooters being made these days, which I'm very happy to see.

@@miikavihersaari3104 I hope that one day you get better taste. Things aren't good just because they remind you of what you liked when you were a child.

​@@mrosskne "Things aren't good because they remind you of when you were a child" Sorry, but I played doom1 last year for the first time im my 20 years of life and it fuxkin slaps

I know it's a joke, but unfortunately, E1M9 is only accessible through E1M3

Doomguy snapping and seeing humans as demons would be terrifying

I think this soundtrack works better because eateot is based off late 80s and early 90s music and this is based off doom music so it fits better

Anyone who lives to old age will experience it, including you.

@@ace4720 Not necessarily. I did some quick research and while it is a pretty common cause of death, there's nothing stating that every single person who lives to an old age will get it.

Theres those invisible imp enemies right? Imagine if there were more invisible enemies

I do not want to imagine what an invisible lost soul swarm would be like.

Thought it was Fourtle commenting :p
