It’s been over twenty years since id Software’s hellish first person shooter Doom made its gory debut, and there’s still an active community that’s devoted to who keeping it alive through mods like the ultra-violent Brutal Doom v20.
About a week ago, I asked what Doom means to you, because I think this series suffers from an identity problem — or, more specifically, a problem in which no one seems to really know what its identity is now. The Brutal Doom v20 mod may be the answer to this, as it focuses on improving only the most important things, such as the gore, violence and dual-wielding middle fingers.
This free mod can be found over at ModDB, just make sure you have a copy of Doom first, otherwise you’ll just look silly. Instructions for installing are over here.
