In BFG edition of Doom 3, the shotgun sucks. However, when I played the original version of Doom 3, the shotgun felt stronger and better. I’ve actually noticed in the BFG edition they nerfed some of the guns for no apparent good reason. Honestly, I prefer the original over BFG edition in many ways as it was just overall better.
I remeber when this game came out everybody thought it was pretty cool how you could click on interfaces and screens etc. directly from the world. Its like looking back and thinking about how amazing it was to have like 1 full GB of harddrive storage.
I still think its amazing and now it's a basic mechanic in many first person games. between this game and Half-life 2, they both raised the standard for shooters moving forward and changed gaming forever.
One minor technical thing that was years ahead of its time: the intro cutscene does a trick where the camera zooms out into a room where someone is watching a monitor, almost like the viewer was pulled out of the screen. The monitor by itself is as high-resolution as the game, and much more so than the surrounding textures. That kind of “picture-in-picture” rendering, even for an in-engine cutscene, was simply not possible on other game engines.
Betruger does not set up the candles, his minions do. There is a "work email" in the game where he tells them how to properly set up rituals and how the candles should be arranged. I like to imagine that the commandos are specifically responsible for candle duty.
"the demon infestation of Mars was also the spark that awakened the sleeping and very angry Doom Slayer. Legend has it that he....." Lol the Codex approves (that's three references)
I know that this game is so far from the formula it got ignored from canon but i still admire the world building, i like how theres a codex entry to explain everything. Still glad they got back to it in 2016 and perfected with Eternal imo
Interestingly there's still a little love for it, for example the Doom 3 opening theme gets the Mick Gordon treatment on the track Harbinger, which is a remix/retooling of the theme. The argueably the one major thing everyone agreed on was that the Doom 3 main theme went god damn hard.
Maybe an unpopular take: Eternal betrayed the character building of Doom 2016. 2016 made fun of the world going to shits and everyone thinking they're the center of attention with a protagonist that couldn't give a second thought and had to be forcefully locked into a room just to listen. Only for Eternal to make you "Godslayer, immortal king of the Universe" with *all* the world building, and all of it revolving around you.
Id say thats perfect for the power fantasy and mirrors Doomguy's irl development, a blank game avatar with almost no story that wasn't supposed to be anymore than a representation of the player turned a global icon of pop culture, video game and fps iconography even before 2016. The modern games cemented this view forever with Eternal even coming back to more recognizable classic designs (save for the Baron 2016 had the better one)
@@JinFreeksthat whole process was already being built up by 2016. You were STILL the apocalypse as far as Hell was concerned. _They dropped a temple on you before the game even started._
So the reason the Marine didn't get affected so badly by the demons, seems to be on account that he had only been on Mars for a very short time. There's a book that just came out with some of the early story ideas and stuff, that briefly goes over some of the thoughts behind that.
one thing I noticed is that none of the marines (green armor) becomes a zombie - all of the armed zombies in the game are UAC Security personnel (black armor)
One thing I miss from the Doom 3 on the original Xbox, the flashlight wasn't attached to anything, it was a separate tool. Having to lower your gun to illuminate darker areas was terrifying.
...and unneccessary, considering it's a Doom game and not Alone in the dark or something. Actually, I've played Doom 3 only with the mounted flashlight and you know what - it's still was scarry sometimes.
@@contrapasso1539 Doom 93 also had this thing about just being a marine, no wonder Doom 3 is a reimagining of the first, with a greater focus on horror. this idea of the slayer and being immortal came in 2016, and in doom 2 if you force it a little
@@eomerseored Came here to see if the reply comments would say this or not, since you did I can only add that this only makes Betruger's name even funnier.
I remember my homie showing up one night in high school with this game, saying he was way too afraid to play it but wanted to watch it be beaten and volunteered me for the role. Good weekend.
When this game came out my brother in law built a new pc just to play it. Had surround sound on it too, which went well with the insanely good sound design of this game. He let me play it on the weekends and I'd turn the lights off and the basement he kept the pc in would get DARK. With the darkness and the surround sound this game was the scariest media experience I had experienced up to that point and retained the title for many years. Back then you couldn't even have your flashlight out at the same time as your gun haha I think this might be my favorite Doom overall. Has flaws, but I really liked the horror direction they took it. I come back to it time to time. They even have a good VR mod for it. Thanks for giving it some more attention!
*Indeimaus,* you probably won't see this. I've lost two grandmothers in two months, buried one last Friday. Your *Shocktober* is helping me get through, so thank you. Happy Halloween, and happy belated birthday.
A lot of people didn't like it but doom 3 is definitely one of my favorites. The feeling of hopelessness and fear you get at the beginning that ramps up into blood thirsty vengeance towards the middle and end is peak
I don't understand how the mars facility could've been overrun if they had those awesome spider-bots. Even with the teleporting demons, throw a couple squads of spider-bots together and they'll clean sweep the place, floor by floor, room by room! Loved the DOOM movie btw, one of my many guilty pleasures 😅
Fun little detail I like: If you play Super Turbo Turkey Puncher until you rack up 250,000 points, you get an email from HR in your PDA congratulating you on setting a new high score, only to say your time off has been docked due to you playing video games during your work hours.
I love Doom 3. I love the horror approach, I love the lore, and I love the character design. The marines looks dope, Sgt. Kelly is interesting, and that UAC guard dude is cool.
The best advice I received for this game was from the Australian Victoria video “Thingle Toodle - Stop, look, listen, think.” 1. Stop before you cross take care - before entering a room it is important to stop and ready yourself with the best situational weapon to face demons in the room. 2. Look right left, everywhere - demons love to hide in corners of the room, especially in places where they can summon outside of your perspective. Make note of covers, corners and especially double check if demons have a likely spot to summon right behind you when entering/re-entering a room. 3 Listen, Is the traffic clear? - make sure to keep an ear out for the sound of demon’s portal to hell opening or for the sound of a demon moving within the room. You will often hear them before you see them, so stay alert for you are never alone. 4. Think we’re safe, stay aware - once the immediate threat has been dealt with, know that you are never truely safe. If you have not proceeded throughout the entire room, stay aware. Demons wait for you to lower your guard and attack you when you pass back through an empty room or a room you had previously combated in. Never rush in, stay aware. And that guide helped me through veteran difficulty and all of the DLC, making short work of sneaky devils and ambushing soldiers. Thank you Transport Victoria for guiding me through hell.
Came here just to comment dude you are the greatest indie youruber to ever exist. Constant joy watching you man. This game was a trip to watch again this was one of the very few games that ever terrified me. The last video you did the babies in the very beginning at the fence in solent hill also is one of the scariest for me as a kid gave me nightmares. Forgot to comment that lol

It's not Betruger who built all those devious monster closets, it's Hell itself seeping into, twisting the very reality just like in previous Dooms! That's how Lost Souls can travel through monitors, how teleporters work, how difficult for Doomguy it is to get from point A to point B, all of the broken doors and flickering lights, broken and lethal machinery, why all the goodies are scattered in seemingly random and hard to reach places, etc. I absolutely love it. Doom 3 definitely has one of the most, if not the most, evil bases ever. Doom 3 is a work of art.

The "Weapons of Mars Destruction" mod for the PC version of Doom 3 breathes new life into this already 20 year old game. I can't see myself playing this game without that mod. The pistol, for example, goes from being the crappiest weapon to one of the weapons you'll love to use. This version of Doom continues to be my absolute favorite in the entire franchise. No superhuman hero, just a pure hearted soldier with incredible courage overcoming impossible odds.
Not what I was expecting from this game... so glad to see it through your playthrough. Looks way more difficult than the new Doom games (game mechanics wise). And Happy belated birthday pimp!
The Shotgun in Doom3 promises so much. The sound, the meat, the punch, the kick. It's visceral. Usually, you also just PLASTER the thing you hit with it first time into a red, fine mist. But then you try to use it on the regular and the anemic fire rate, the 6 business days of reloading, the hilariously terrible accuracy....nah man.
@@Razumen I debated for the longest time if I would even reply to this obvious piece of parroted flamebait, but it might just be that you think you're being genuinely funny and let me inform you that: Parroting Internet buzzwords will never make you funny. It might, at best, elicit a chuckle among your perpetually online friends, but everyone else will just cringe, shake their head and go about their day. I hope you find it in yourself to develop your own sense of humor some day. Or the manners to realize that nobody asked for your opinion and your unsolicited "hurr durr funny" comment is, at best, rude and unnecessary.
@TheOnlyToblin hes not wrong I think you must have suffered with a skill issue. Shotgun was powerful when you use the sprint efficiently. Real up close and personal.
Final Destination death tier list would be amazing! And hopefully less work than the Saw tier list since there are only 5 films. The new movie comes out soon
I'm one of (seemingly) very few people that actually doesn't like the duct tape mod or the armor flashlight in BFG edition... I actually liked how you had to choose between sight and safety.
I think the shotguns slaps. It hits like a truck if you land all the pellets in its insane spread. So you gotta master getting up close, not getting hit, and still vaporizing the enemy in front of you
It's best used against imps and zombies as their attacks are easy to avoid and more often than not they'll be one shotted. Anything else though is risky as a single pellet missing will result in you taking a bunch of damage.
This is my favorite Doom, I played it the most. I like all the other ones, but this one was the first one I spent so many hours in. I finished 1 and 2 after this one, and I agree it feels like a different franchise sometimes, but I've got nothing but love for the OG Doom 3 (moreso than BFG Edition).
Awesome montage in the end! Hopefully you will play Resurrection of Evil expansion, and also Final Destination death tier list sounds great! Also use the grenade launcher! Oh wait, wrong game...
15:05 that is something Doom 2016 did really well by adding the hell cult. "Why are there candles and pentagrams in the lab?" "We are have blood sacrifices in our promotion policies"
Indei, are we ever going to see you play Dino Crisis? It's my personal favourite survival horror game and I would love to see it featured here! Hope Capcom finally sees how important the game is to the fans and gives it the REmake treatment soon!
this is the place for me to declare my love for Doom 3 and the shotgun. You know what, I'm going to make a 30 plus minute video about how amazing Doom 3 is like I did with Metroid Prime.
The only times I used the shotgun is when I had no other choice or when I knew where enemy spawns were. Since you can shoot the teleport effect before the enemy model pops in and kill them.
man i used to play this as a kid, kid me was creeped out by the atmosphere and darkness in the game. Loved the whole flashlight being separate from your guns thing xD
@@blargcoster There's so much wrong with the BFG edition. The flashlight as you said, sound effects not being what they used to be, gamebreaking glitches that didn't exist in the original, unnecessary changes to weapons such as significantly reducing the fire rate of the chain gun and increasing the fire rate of the machine gun (both were fine in the original) and adding a ridiculous amount of extra ammo to each pickup. Also they ruin the atmosphere with many of the graphical changes.
Doom 3 is such a classic, i remember playing it on the very first Xbox in 2004ish that game scared the shit outta me cause i was around 13, 14 yrs old. I hope they do another Doom game like Doom 3. Like less action an more horror!
When I was a kid I played through this game multiple times, then modded the shit out of it. The weapons and enemies have code that even I could understand and tinker with at that age. At the time I remember I also had a strange fascination with the monster at 21:11, cause it's not a hellknight or an archvile, it has a unique model. That thing really just decided to show up once specifically for a jumpscare, say something in latin and then fuck off forever lmao
Oh man, what a trip down a memory lane. Doom 3 was one of my first big PC games (the real first being Quake 2 on an old Pentium 2 PC). The graphics blew me away back then, and oh boy was I scared to play Hell levels. I also liked to play most of the game with the shotgun simply because the marine was with it in all the cutscenes. Yeah, I was weird like that.. still am sometimes.. P.S. Happy late birthday, mate!
I totally agree with you that this one blows the modern ones out of the water. Even if we just consider atmosphere alone, this one kills those. Also, I KNEW I wasn't crazy as a kid thinking that shotgun was either the best or the worst one I'd ever used in a video game and could never land on which I felt more. Please do the expansions.
I remember playing Doom 3 at like 15 FPS because that is all my computer could run it at back in the day. It still blows my mind that a phone can run Doom 3.
I love this game. Had a hard time accepting it on release, being a stickler and all. But I came around eventually. Your take on the shotgun is spot-on.
In the middle of playing this game rn and I’m having such a nostalgic blast. Loved this game as a kid and I still love it now even though it does stray from what DOOM is. I really do appreciate the direction they went with this game and it’s not perfect but I don’t think it deserves all the hate it’s gotten over the years.
Doom 3 and resurrection of evil are my favorite Doom games I played them as a kid and it was terrifying, my TV was terrible so I could only see the game in black and white making the dark areas a real pain I love this game.
I have such a distinct memory of that blade cube thing you fling at enemies. My 14 year old self effing loved that thing. I still love it, but I did then too
alright, lets hear it, doom 3 shotgun is it good or not?
also today I turned 34, oh hell

Cheers, my Brain just stopped finally developing so it's Gucci.
Doom 3's shotgun is fine IF you realize that it's a melee weapon ONLY.
In BFG edition of Doom 3, the shotgun sucks. However, when I played the original version of Doom 3, the shotgun felt stronger and better.

Doom 3 shotgun is inconsistent so id say bad
I modded it when i played for the second time.Gave it less spread and felt like a propper shotgun
The shotgun in this game is the equivalent of lsd. You either have the best experience of your life or you end up dead in a vent system.
Strange. I had the most amazing bad trip of my life, yet am still alive.
Yeah, I'm playing the OG version because for some reason the other one doesn't work for me And BY golly that shotgun is ass
Best melee weapon
@@Lord_Deimos can’t be said better, really. The best hammer-to-the-face then in any game.

Doom 3 is very important game in the series for one simple reason: It shows you what it is to be in a Doom and NOT be the main protagonist.
This guy was the main character bro he managed to go to hell and back and stopped the demon invasion single-handedly

Parroting Internet buzzwords will never make you funny. It might, at best, elicit a chuckle among your perpetually online friends, but everyone else will just cringe, shake their head and go about their day.
I hope you find it in yourself to develop your own sense of humor some day. Or the manners to realize that nobody asked for your opinion and your unsolicited "hurr durr funny" comment is, at best, rude and unnecessary.
@@TheOnlyToblin That's a lot of words when you could just git gud.
@@Razumen Thank you for acknowledging that you're just a troll looking for a rise. Perhaps, you too, will grow up one day.
@TheOnlyToblin hes not wrong I think you must have suffered with a skill issue. Shotgun was powerful when you use the sprint efficiently. Real up close and personal.
Best Doom imo!!! This during the time of original xbox was peak!!
I am all about the Shocktober vids and this didn't disappoint
yeah we need more appreciation for this shocktobers intro, so good!
Dude I waited so so long for you to play this, now that it’s over it’s bittersweet as fuck, I really hope you play the expansion one day!!!
Final Destination death tier list would be amazing! And hopefully less work than the Saw tier list since there are only 5 films. The new movie comes out soon
I'm one of (seemingly) very few people that actually doesn't like the duct tape mod or the armor flashlight in BFG edition... I actually liked how you had to choose between sight and safety.
Happy birthday!!🎉 🎂
I'm definitely onboard for that Final Destination tier list

Also, happy birthday
I think the shotguns slaps. It hits like a truck if you land all the pellets in its insane spread. So you gotta master getting up close, not getting hit, and still vaporizing the enemy in front of you
Hold in sprint, point blank shotty to the face, sprint evade out of danger worked wonders. Up close shotgun was one of my fav weapons.
It's best used against imps and zombies as their attacks are easy to avoid and more often than not they'll be one shotted. Anything else though is risky as a single pellet missing will result in you taking a bunch of damage.
My only knowledge of Doom 3 previous to this video was Heavenly's rant to Zen
Lateralus Instrumentals to start, I absolutely LOVE it, Tool is amazing.. and so are these videos, can't wait!
Glad I wasn't the only one to hear it!
Ur video on saw traps is one of my favorite so a final destination one would be sick
"'Extreme Doom 3!' Yea I dunno if I'm gonna go with that." he did in fact go with that
The skeleton bit was going to be so funny, dang
This is my favorite Doom, I played it the most. I like all the other ones, but this one was the first one I spent so many hours in. I finished 1 and 2 after this one, and I agree it feels like a different franchise sometimes, but I've got nothing but love for the OG Doom 3 (moreso than BFG Edition).
7:52 Two words...Plot Armor
17:32 You'd think an Australian would be used to spiders. 🕷🕸
Yooo, Civvie11 uploads a Condemned: Criminal Origins video and now Maus with a Doom 3 banger, tis like an early 2000s Christmas over'ere!
Awesome montage in the end! Hopefully you will play Resurrection of Evil expansion, and also Final Destination death tier list sounds great!
Also use the grenade launcher! Oh wait, wrong game...
ya know indeimaus, you're an entertaining dude lol i enjoy shocktober SO MUCH!
15:05 that is something Doom 2016 did really well by adding the hell cult.
"Why are there candles and pentagrams in the lab?"
"We are have blood sacrifices in our promotion policies"
Fantastic use of Guilty Gear music in this one!
Also Happy Birthday brother, hope you had a great one. 🎉
Fun fact about the Vagary (big spider enemy that uses the force), the head in its abdomen is a Mancubus fetus
The Doom 3 shotgun is easily one of gamings BEST melee weapons!
Not the "best" Doom, but forever my favorite
Doom 3 is probably the scariest Doom game
Crazy i was just looking for a Indiemaus video and heres a fresh one
Indei, are we ever going to see you play Dino Crisis? It's my personal favourite survival horror game and I would love to see it featured here!
Hope Capcom finally sees how important the game is to the fans and gives it the REmake treatment soon!
this is the place for me to declare my love for Doom 3 and the shotgun. You know what, I'm going to make a 30 plus minute video about how amazing Doom 3 is like I did with Metroid Prime.
Happy Birthday, Indiemaus! And Happy Shocktober
The only times I used the shotgun is when I had no other choice or when I knew where enemy spawns were. Since you can shoot the teleport effect before the enemy model pops in and kill them.
Happy Birthday Indei! Thanks for working so hard around the clock for us!!
I know, I’m late but happy shocktober.
It’s cool to see you play games you bring up so much in your videos.
The scariest and most fun doom i've played.
man i used to play this as a kid, kid me was creeped out by the atmosphere and darkness in the game. Loved the whole flashlight being separate from your guns thing xD
and then they changed it with the expansion so your flashlight was just always out, changed the whole atmosphere and tension in the game.
Yeah I loved the switch between weapon and flashlight too. It created great atmosphere. Glad I still have the original CD
@@myztklk3v Yeah, that's the reason I didn't like the BFG edition. I don't like the duct tape mods.
@@blargcoster There's so much wrong with the BFG edition. The flashlight as you said, sound effects not being what they used to be, gamebreaking glitches that didn't exist in the original, unnecessary changes to weapons such as significantly reducing the fire rate of the chain gun and increasing the fire rate of the machine gun (both were fine in the original) and adding a ridiculous amount of extra ammo to each pickup. Also they ruin the atmosphere with many of the graphical changes.
Heavily underrated Doom game, Man I love it
Doom 3 traumatized a generation of kids. It's great
Doom 3 is such a classic, i remember playing it on the very first Xbox in 2004ish that game scared the shit outta me cause i was around 13, 14 yrs old. I hope they do another Doom game like Doom 3. Like less action an more horror!
When I was a kid I played through this game multiple times, then modded the shit out of it. The weapons and enemies have code that even I could understand and tinker with at that age.
At the time I remember I also had a strange fascination with the monster at 21:11, cause it's not a hellknight or an archvile, it has a unique model. That thing really just decided to show up once specifically for a jumpscare, say something in latin and then fuck off forever lmao
Hope you do the DLC campaigns too! They’re a fun time too👍🏻
The shocktober intro's keep getting better and better
imagine indeimaus starting of shocktober with a banger like DOOM3, I just love this guy, give him a price allready
The key to the shotgun in DooM 3 is facefucking your enemies, it's basically a melee attack.
Oh man, what a trip down a memory lane.
Doom 3 was one of my first big PC games (the real first being Quake 2 on an old Pentium 2 PC). The graphics blew me away back then, and oh boy was I scared to play Hell levels. I also liked to play most of the game with the shotgun simply because the marine was with it in all the cutscenes. Yeah, I was weird like that.. still am sometimes..
P.S. Happy late birthday, mate!
Man your intros to the games always slap :D I really like the cut-out footage of the game through the logo :) awesome idea Indei!
I’m actually hype for a Final Destination tier list.
I totally agree with you that this one blows the modern ones out of the water. Even if we just consider atmosphere alone, this one kills those.
Also, I KNEW I wasn't crazy as a kid thinking that shotgun was either the best or the worst one I'd ever used in a video game and could never land on which I felt more.
Please do the expansions.
I remember playing Doom 3 at like 15 FPS because that is all my computer could run it at back in the day. It still blows my mind that a phone can run Doom 3.
I love this game. Had a hard time accepting it on release, being a stickler and all. But I came around eventually. Your take on the shotgun is spot-on.
Best plasma gun ever, hands down. The PEWPEWPEW and the *clink* zzzzzRRRRR reload. Perfection.
In the middle of playing this game rn and I’m having such a nostalgic blast. Loved this game as a kid and I still love it now even though it does stray from what DOOM is. I really do appreciate the direction they went with this game and it’s not perfect but I don’t think it deserves all the hate it’s gotten over the years.
33:46 that got me
Doom 3 and resurrection of evil are my favorite Doom games I played them as a kid and it was terrifying, my TV was terrible so I could only see the game in black and white making the dark areas a real pain I love this game.
0:58 That's BMTH, and my brain isn't just deep fried, right?
Yes, i belive the song is Throne
It's freakin' spooky lately
i get so goddamned hyped up any time I hear Zato-1 theme, thanks man
I have such a distinct memory of that blade cube thing you fling at enemies. My 14 year old self effing loved that thing. I still love it, but I did then too
