Doom existed if only to lead to the birth of the majestic game that is Heretic: Shadows of the Serpent Riders, and if you can't understand or accept that you probably shouldn't even be playing video games.

Now listen here, Doom 2 is not as good as Ultimate Doom because of the following reasons. Firstly, the level design isn't as good. Ultimate Doom has a couple duds but Doom 2 has a good chunk of awful maps, pretty much every "city" map is terrible. Even some of the hell levels at the end have stupid "shoot this wall texture because it opens up the secret room the level exit is in" and "open this hidden door to continue the level". Secret stuff like that should lead to secrets, not the end of the level. Sandy Peterson is a chump.

And the super shotgun is so good it ruins the gun balance. In Ultimate Doom every gun is useful for different situations. In Doom 2 the super shotgun is always the best weapon for everything aside from the times you need to kill a cyberdemon or mastermind.

OP, while Doom II remains the peak of single player FPS play, Quake III reached heights in competitive play that the simplistic Doom Deathmatch experience couldn't hope to match.

Doom 2 is better because there are almost no enemies in Doom that can hit a moving player. It's simplistic and making actual challenging levels (E4M2) is much harder.

all of them are top tier but imo the definitive marathon edition was the xbox 360 version of marathon 2, that added an endurance arena mode
