Everyone is WRONG about DOOM II
@john2001plus
0 seconds agoBeen replaying Doom and Doom II. The first Doom is better for exploration making it more fun. Doom II puts a greater emphasis on difficulty, large levels, and an excessive number of ambushes. The early maps have mostly right angle walls, making it less visually appealing, not unlike Wolfenstein 3D. I enjoy Doom II quite a bit, but Doom feels like the better game.

Ultimate Doom (100%) Walkthrough (E3M6: Mt. Erebus)
2 minutes ago
@BigMacDavis I've been playing Doom II and Doom: Thy Flesh Consumed, on every level of difficulty except Nightmare.
My frustration with Doom II is that you need a roadmap or a script to play some of the really large levels optimally. You've worked out the best way to play these levels, but it goes against my instincts to follow someone else's pattern. I just want to explore each map randomly, which works pretty well in Doom.
One reason this is an issue is that Doom II is loaded with ambushes almost everywhere. I don't have the maps memorized yet, so I never know when I'm about to be ambushed.
I had the original Doom almost completely memorized back in the mid-1990s.
