I’m so so on the Quake 2 soundtrack but it would feel wrong to play without it.

Wait, did you just diss The Fat of the Land? If this was a couple centuries ago there would have been a glove striking your cheek right now. Rapiers at dawn, good sir!  But you should listen to the Quake 2 soundtrack sometime, juggalo baby coffin. It’s also great. When I replayed Q2 a couple years ago priority one was getting the music working, graphics were less important to me.

How are the switch ports? And if I’m “new” to the OG Dooms, should I start with the first one and just work through them in order?

The switch ports are great, and go play og doom, yeah, but if you feel like it's a slog go on and skip over to the next one imo. Repeat ad infinitum until you've finished all the wads that are in that package.

The Switch ports are all phenomenal, and the devs keep adding extra content and maps. They're on sale fairly regularly for <$3, but even the regular price of $5 is worth it.

I paid 5€ for Doom and Doom II after they started patching some of the issues and they're worth it on PS4.

Crossposting from the DOOM WAD CLUB thread, Jimmy (of Doom MIDI and Mapping fame) made a Garth Marenghi's Darkplace map. It's a GZDoom 4.5.0 map, and it's pretty amazing.

I just ran across this and don't believe it's been posted yet here, but there's been a small update on the status of the Descent 3 source code, tl;dr is Eric "Wingman" Peterson hosed things up for everyone: https://www.reddit.com/r/descent/comments/mmn2aq/descent_3_source_code/ quote:We're stuck in license hell. quote:I don't know how much money Underground's kickstarter made, but the developers promised a LOT of cash from it. Upwards of 7 figures. Interplay's greed took over from there.

I picked up Descent Underground for £1 i think in one of those trash bundles years back. I think I played about 20 minutes of it before uninstalling and Overload was a far better game overall. Hope they get to actually finish developing it one day.

Has there even been a crowd funded attempt to straight-up buy source code for an old game?

So, uh, somehow my install of GZdoom reset all my options and deleted my saves. I think it might have happened because I let an update for my doom mod launcher install while I was in the game? Anyway, anyone know where these options and save files are normally saved?

I don't have an HDR monitor or an RTX card but I do have a phone that apparently can show HDR video, so that's probably as close as I'll come any time soon to seeing this stuff in action.

Both saves and a .ini file with your settings should live in the root of the GZDoom folder

also, in a little more than a month this thread will be old enough to be talked about in the context of itself according to the loose arbitrary metric once used to qualify a game as old school enough to be posted about in this very same thread.
