Make sure to read the FAQ as well.. Moderators reserve the right to interpret the rules as they see fit if something is borderline.


Doom is a series of sci-fi action/horror games from id software, starting with Doom in 1993, and continuing with Doom3 and Doom (2016).

In Doom, you play as a space marine tasked with defeating the unleashed demonic forces of Hell, using a variety of heavy weapons and your own skill against the invading hordes. Doom codified and revolutionized First-Person Shooters, and remains one of the most influential games in the genre.

Feel free to also discuss Doom-engine games such as Heretic, Hexen, and Strife, and any others. Please tag these posts with [game name], to make them easier to distinguish.

Reminder: Please use Post flairs to help others see what kind of content you're posting.

Mod preview keeps crashing

I tried using the mod preview recently, when I click "Play with mods" with no actual mods active the game launches just fine, however when I do add mods and click "Play with mods" the game opens up and crashes. I tried reinstalling, removing the previous mod manager from the modding discord, verifying the game files, updating my driver... Nothing seems to work. Can anyone help?

Legacy of rust hot take

I practically grew up with the first two doom games, as well as TNT Evilution and Plutonia, the ladder being my favorite doom expansion to this day. Recently I bought Doom 1+2 on steam, to check out John Romero's Sigil, and Legacy of Rust expansions, and after completing three levels in LoR I can say.... It's very exhausting. The levels drag on for way too long to be enjoyable, the new enemies look out of place and are annoying to fight, the new textures also look out of place.... The whole expansion reeks of Custom content, and while I am all for that, it feel too out of place, and while I would probably enjoy this if it was a mod, this being an official expansion kinda feels wrong. And the gimmicks get tiring very quick. You enter a room, 12 revenants teleport in one by one, and you go to the next room where exactly the same thing happens. And the infighting battles are very spectacular... Only for about 5 seconds, then it just gets boring, as instead of playing the game, you're just running in a circle for 7 minutes. I entered this arena, right, with this new boss enemy, and I think "play, time to learn to fight this enemy, and understand how it works", but nope, about 50 zombie men teleport in, and kill the bastard and eachother. Maybe I'm missing something, but LoR just doesn't feel like doom at all.

Will Doomguy speak in The Dark Ages?

I feel that id have been gradually trying to make Doomguy into an actual character by revealing little bits about him in Eternal, and in the flashback he actually says a few words. Now TDA is taking place at the same time as the flashback, back when he still had his voice, so I'm feeling that id will give him actual dialogue in TDA.

I've called him Doomguy since TDA takes place before he earns the reputation of the Doom Slayer.

Hell On Earth Starter Pack Hell levels were......Different

Yes I drew the drawing for the 1000 yard stare and yes the footage was taken by me. Anyway these are the best Hell levels I've played when it comes to classic Doom. The atmosphere, the screaming, the brutal architecture, the tortured and butchered marines begging to be free from their pain. Just paints Hell for me

Aquatic cyber-mancubis design:

Supposedly crawls like a shellfish on the seabed, picking up corpses beneath the UAC Atlantica Rig. Fires off rusted UAC crates and other objects, utilizes a hammerhead shark head for a fist and propellers that can be shot off to reduce speed of its charges. Lights on the right arm will give off its location for easier targeting. Can be blood punched which will cause it to implode.

IP range banned from doomworld

like 90% of the time I try to go onto doomworld it just says I'm banned.

I am assuming it's a range ban that overlaps with me because I've never posted on doomworld, nor do I have an account.

saw the old post where a doomworld mod replied, but I couldn't message him, so I'm doing this

Doom Eternal runs poorly after I reinstall it

My pc has always been able to run doom eternal at high settings 60fps, but recently I need space for a new game so I temporarily uninstalled doom. Then when I reinstall it, the game only runs at around 15-25 fps no matter what settings I do, I've tried to go as low as possible but the fps didn't increase one bit. Does anyone know what problem this is? If do please help me, I really wanna replay this game lol

My pc specs: I5-4690k Rx570 4gb Ram 16gb

curious on people's thoughts on the revamped gameplay loop of The Dark Ages

Was rewatching the interview with Hugo and Marty on the dark ages and them talking about how they essentially wanted the game to have an emphasis on weaving through enemy projectiles almost like a shmup really wowed me. I'm curious to know what everybody thinks about the new direction they're taking for the pacing and gameplay loop for TDA. personally, I have complete faith in ID and this is sort of the exact thing I was hoping the next doom game would be.
