Doom Clones have been around and a phrase for over 30 years. From old PCs, to consoles, your Nintendo Switches and PlayStations it don't MATTER, in the 90s you couldn't escape Boomer Shooters. It may not be used as a moniker as much these days but I just can't believe I didn't tackle this one sooner.

I had a Mac before Doom was released on it, so other than Wolf 3D my first FPS was a game called Marathon: Durandal, which I think was a sequel and it came with the first for free. It's from a sci fi space book I had not heard of at the time, and it was incomprehensible to me. Both were pretty terrible gameplay wise in comparison, but they did beat Zero Tolerance on the Genesis. Needless to say, I was very glad when they finally ported Doom to the Macintosh. Lol oh wow there it is. I didn't think anyone remembered.

The biggest difference in the structure of Doom and Wolf 3D was that Wolf was locked to a grid. Every square was either empty space, a wall, a door, a guard, food, etc, but it was all laid out on that grid in the level creator. Doom had angles, and you could create far more interesting level designs with free tools available, by drawing lines in any direction on that grid and then defining the textures and effects of the boundaries and spaces. The biggest limitation then was that you couldn't put any room atop another, it all had to lay out flat. That, combined with more varied monsters and a few more weapons, was the big change that made Doom take off like it did, and where Wolf felt like 'just another game'.

Shoutouts to Marathon for being the exact opposite of Doom in terms of storyline; where id and especially Carmack basically went "Yeah the story's there but you're here for the gameplay, so here's a shotgun, go wild", the blokes over at Bungie basically made an entire sci fi doorstopper novel for a series which pros' favorite pastime is running around and beating switches and every single living being with their bare hands.

Sorta surprised that Blake Stone runs on the Wolf3D engine, given that they actually textured the floors and ceilings. That said, if viewing it as a half step between Wolf3D and ROTT, it makes perfect sense. Edit: If you look into a sequel in the future, look into "Virtuoso." Play as a metal head in a third person shooter with a choppier framerate than Jason with a fresh machete to break in.

Fun little fact about Powerslave that I'm guessing wasn't mentioned because the focus was specifically on Doom clones: Lobotomy went on to use its engine for the Saturn port of Quake. Which turned out surprisingly well! There's no real point in revisiting it these days, with the Nightdive remaster eclipsing any previous release, but it was a good alternative for someone (like me) who didn't have a PC that could run Quake very well.

@MildMisanthropeMaybeMassive 4 ай бұрын

I remember in the early days of the _information superhighway_ snobby gatekeepers who loved the point and click adventure genre would dismiss Doom Clones as “not real games” because “they required no thinking or challenge and all players did was mindlessly walk around and shoot.” It’s funny how the status quo has reversed. Now point and click adventure games are often argued as “not real games, they’re visual novels, walking simulators, or interactive movies” and etc…

Austin didn't mention that the Heretic series got split in a weird way- Hexen was straightforwardly a sequel to Heretic, but the third game was supposed to be called Hecatomb (I remember reading an interview with John Romero that mentioned he had a mockup of the original cover design in his office) and then got changed to Hexen II. Fast-forward a couple more years, and Raven put out Heretic II, a third-person game (using the Quake engine!) that was a direct sequel to the first Heretic and completely ignored the Hexen games.

I myself was about 10 at the time, and I remember that it was a talked about game on the school yard.. none of us ever played it as no one had a Jaguar, but thanks to the infomercials selling the Atari Jaguar showing off gameplay, and print media, every kid I knew wish they had a Jaguar specifically for AvP..

Not enough was said about *Outlaws.* One of its standout features was the soundtrack, Ennio Morricone themed and included as CD audio tracks. The game's atmosphere was very efficient due to the music and enemies shouting taunts, once they were alerted to the player's presence. There was no bullet-sponging of either enemies or the player. Guns were as lethal as you'd expect, drastically increasing tension and pressuring the player into using tactics rather than brainless run 'n gun. The AI was also a bit more complex for the time, having enemies run behind cover and ducking behind barrels or similar objects. Strongly recommended for the music.

Now I get why it's not fondly remembered as a whole, but I spent hours and hours on it.

@@Coolman13355 Exactly, in some ways the atmosphere was more moody than Doom to my young brain. It's also technically the first Half Life game story wise but you play a marine. :D

I was more of a Quake fanboy but can’t deny the magnificence of Doom - especially Doom 2. Still play Dark Forces now. Id forgotten all about Heretic and Hexen but I remember really enjoying them. The Duke Nukem games were fun.

Battlezone in arcades in the 80's, then Wolfenstein 3D, Blake Stone, Rise of the Triad (dog mode!), Hexen, Duke 3D, Exhumed (Let's get the Hell out of here!), Disruptor and Dark Forces all got me through the Nineties.

Cool to see Alien Breed 3D get a mention! I made a remake of it using the GZDoom engine called Project Osiris if anyone's interested in trying a slightly remixed and modernised version of the game with an actually sensible resolution.

@24:30: if you speed it up to 2x, it sounds like the intro to the "Cheers" theme song, lol! 😂

I think it was in Hexen, that if you typed in one of the cheat codes for DOOM, you got a message in the style of: _Hey dude, this isnt Doom_

I still have my copies of Marathon and Marathon 2. It was super fun back in the 90s, if I couldn't make it to my buddy's to play Doom.

I think one of my favorite Doom/Stein clone is AvP on the Jaguar. Liked you could play as either an alien, predator or marine. Gave a bit of variety.

Great video! Forgot I had TekWar as a kid - didn’t understand a bit of it. One more title though: Corridor 7! That one felt a bit like a horror game. Liked it!
