Why is there a massive circlejerk over Doom 64 all of a sudden?
It was nothing more than a way to play Doom on the Bing Bing Wahoo 64 machine and pretty much plays like a custom IWAD with some new graphics and sounds and yet everyone is praising it like a forgotten masterpiece and a true sequel to Doom 2.

Because one new version was made when the last doom came out.
Sonic CD effect
Actual fans aleady loved it a long time ago because they weren't afraid of "stealing" N64 roms to play it on a fanmade ports
>it's just a custom IWAR bro!

It has good level design, I've been playing it for over 2 decades and I prefer it to doom 2
Lost levels were good but the last level is only fun if you avoid the invunerable power ups
Hope we gets the outcast levels, maybe some TC enemies too
Some eceleb retard said that Doom 64 is good and millenials and underage are licking that shit up.
Same shit as with Modern Warfare 2 and Bad Company circlejerking recently. Just kids hearing a "based" opinion from someone and repeating it.
It's like doom with some hexen mixed in, pretty fun.
>It was nothing more than a way to play Doom
Nice one OP
Doom 64 is better than Doom 2
>Same shit as with Modern Warfare 2 and Bad Company circlejerking recently
You gotta to be kidding. No way somebody unironically praising these piece of shit
>It was nothing more than a way to play Doom on the Bing Bing Wahoo 64 machine
play the game before you speak

nightdive studios recently released a commercial port of it to the pc and consoles.
It's pretty good. I feel like most of the people praising it as being better than the originals only played/heard of it recently and are still in a honeymoon period because doing any more than one playthrough really exposes the sheer lack of variety in monsters and the awful weapon balance where only two of them matter at a time. Cartridge space limitations really didn't do it any favors
It was a nintendo exclusive. Nintendofags are a cult.
This is a good post. The game also has some really noticeable level design issues. There's lots of moments where you'll flip a switch that did something somewhere else and you need to wander around for 5 minutes before you find the one door that it opened.

That would be the case if it wasn't an entirely new game.
A lot of people didn't even know that Doom64 wasn't simply a port of the original Doom.
As to why people love it ? It's a creepier Doom game with good horror atmosphere that didn't sacrificed its gameplay for it like Doom3 did.

it's soundtrack is p cool
They're zoomers bro, theyll parrot anything
My experience with the secrets summed up.
I am enjoying the horror-esque theme it went for, though; I can easily see how D3 came into concept afterwards.
>no revenants
>no arch-viles
>better
Doom 64 is a downgrade in any aspect.
Availability is important. These two are pretty cool weird games.
there's like 3 arch viles in 2, woooow so amazing

Because it has some really solid level design and people are finally able to play it without subjecting themselves to the abomination that is the N64 controller.
updated brutal version coming soon, going to be sick
playing it and i like it. though i disagree that is better than doom/doom2/final_doom
well most of them barely matter, it's a cool enemy design but they mostly only matter in wads
>the abomination that is the N64 controller
zoom zoom
actual good music instead of playing Metallica through a 8-bit filter
Cringe
>projecting
Only zoomers would defend it. They never played Mario Party 1.
Nah man, it was shit.
it's insane how one single console makes so much seething, even 20 years later
Is that revenant flossing?
because it's good when games people like come off old exclusive hardware on to multi-platforms. Imagine being upset about this or even trying to question why people's enjoyment of a game that's not bad is even valid.
There is no "why"
