Doom 64 (100%) Walkthrough (Map16: Blood Keep)

[@LightningBoltForever]

Maybe it’s just me, but it always feels special when you get a map in Doom 64 that lets you do a lot of running around outside, because they seem few and far between. That skybox is really cool too!

[@hammondOT]

I love quake and doom maps that have a mix of indoor and outdoor areas, agreed.

[@aaronhoyes1781]

This map is just so dynamic. There's a little bit of everything here: traps, platforming, hallways, courtyards, enemy variety... I especially like the lighting effects in the caves and the room with the platforms and radioactive waste. It conveys the sense of being in an otherworldly, hellish place very well. Overall my favorite map in the game.

[@BigMacDavis]

I can see why it's your favorite map, and it's indeed one of my favorites. This map conveys exactly what I expect in a hellish level. Randy Estrella is a brilliant map designer.

[@zacherybates427]

Also excluding the LOST LEVELS, This has the 2nd highest Monster Count in the game with: 164, the highest is LEVEL 18: SPAWNED FEAR with 167.

[@axelbecerra2267]

I remember when I first played Doom 64, I was 9 years old. It was the very first shooter i played in my life and it was amazing. This game brings me a lot of nostalgic memories

[@BigMacDavis]

Awesome. First time I played this was just a couple years ago, when Doom 64 was released alongside Doom Eternal. It's already a classic game in my book.

[@EpicJasonX9000]

I always seem to remember this map being pretty dark on the original hardware. really glad that Nightdive worked on this release since I still think it's the best released version of this game. although it's always interesting to play this game on the actual hardware, which using the N64's controller is probably more comfortable than using the PS1's D-Pad for their 2 ports. hopefully Nightdive will someday also release an updated version of PSX Doom & Final Doom which I'd love to obtain through GOG as long as it doesn't require an account from Bethesda.

[@aaronhoyes1781]

You can easily fix the darkness issue on the N64 by adjusting the brightness on the in game settings, as well as the brightness on the TV itself. Total game changer.

[@BigMacDavis]

Yeah, I think I circumvented the darkness by upping the brightness on this to maximum. I appreciate what the developers intended with the darkness, but it's too dark for me.

[@EpicJasonX9000]

@@aaronhoyes1781 not exactly. Even with the brightness heightened on the old hardware, it’s still dark. Trust me, it is a noticeable issue that can’t be magically fixed by upping the brightness on the TV. Perhaps it might be different on an HDTV using updated adapters. I’ll have to find out when I get an N64 for my upcoming 37th birthday……..or should I say Ultra 64 in my case. ^-^

[@aaronhoyes1781]

@@EpicJasonX9000 Ah yes, perhaps I should have been more specific. I indeed do play this game on an HDTV. Seems like this hack works better depending on the TV itself. I play the original hardware on a 2008 HD Samsung and never have an issue with the brightness.

[@GeorgiaRidgerunner]

You remember correctly the darkness of this game was the main complaint about this game if you do emulation there versions where this game has been lightened up

[@DoomMomDot]

Once again, I have to realize I should wait for your walkthrough. I ran around this map, just trying to go by feel. Knowing what to do will help me the next time I tackle it.

[@BigMacDavis]

Sorry for all the delays in these videos. But the next few videos will come in a succession, so stay tuned. But yeah, in all fairness, this map can be quite confusing the first time.

I love the "And that's it!". You don't spoil at all that we're almost at the end of the level, and we discover it when we see the last switch. There's thus no deception at all to finish the level

[@iguana9173]

Multitasking watching decino’s livestream and now I have this.

[@BigMacDavis]

Lol, right? I recommend watching the pumpkin man first and then coming back to this. :)

[@squirrele.1266]

@@BigMacDavis I am very glad to hear. Can't wait.

[@alanblasczyk1779]

Very cool map. See you soon BMD.

[@catlapandagirl]

I love those candles outside. And the sky looks like a sunset. Hey, a half-life-ish radioactive pit! Sweet! Yuk! Hanging body parts. Ooooo candles inside too. Nice. And lots of library books. Nice shooting BMD! Especially in that lost souls attack!

[@Chozo_Ghost]

And _that's_ why I always use the Unmaker in that final room :P

[@amaruqlonewolf3350]

Brilliant walkthrough as always, BMD. I played through Doom 64 a few months ago, and I really wish that I would've referred to your videos for a couple few maps x)

[@lukebehrendsbro.]

I'm sure it's a fine map itself. I don't know IMO I thought it was boring. I'm glad you liked this map. For me I like other maps that does things better. Still, good job beating this map. 🙂👍

[@charlesbowers8112]

WooHoo! Thanks for making my Saturday BMD!😃

[@BigMacDavis]

Thanks for making my Saturday with your comment. :)

[@A_D_M_E_R_A_L]

For the exit area Unmaker is the better weapon to use. I hug 1 of the corners, kill everything and step into the rectangle when killing the last enemy. My fav D64 maps is next.

[@jasonsavill3444]

Question: Are you ever going to finish the Doom Arrival level walkthroughs? Or were them 9 levels all there was to it?

[@BigMacDavis]

Just 9 levels, yup. Arrival is already done. :)

[@finkamain1621]

I found out that Steam added the workshop for Halo MCC so you can play mods with the click of a button. Here's hoping since Microsoft owns Bethesda that they'll add easy mod support on Steam for Doom 64. All these years of amazing Doom expansions and mods, I hope to see the same with Doom 64 in the future

[@fizixx]

Fun to see the playthrough. Nicely executed.....smooth and precise! Yeah, bummer about the infighting, but oh well. Good job BMD. 😎

[@jonbourgoin182]

Are there no standard zombie men in DooM 64? Did they just make what looks like the standard zombie men from OG DooM to be shotgunners? You'd think a standard color swap would suffice

[@BigMacDavis]

There is a very slight difference between the Doom 64 Zombiemen and the Shotgunners, with the only difference being a slight color change to their pants. In the heat of the moment, it's very difficult to determine which enemy is which, because you're not going to look at their pants intricately, and the only way you know is when they die and drop whatever ammo they drop.

[@iguana9173]

Zombiemen have more green pants and shotgun guys have a more grey colour.

[@joshjohnson6891]

One of those OG Doom bastards FINALLY makes his presence known in the Watch Your Step Map 😂

[@DarkStormYT]

The regular shotgun in this game is the exact same shotgun that you see on Golden Souls 1, but instead, in the Mod, it is an automatic shotgun.

[@kasutaja250]

Again nice video ❤ keep going

[@QT-jw6dx]

I saved my game at the exit thinking I was about to go into a boss fight and had to start the whole level over.💀💀💀.

[@redhood-_-2670]

Obrigado muito obrigado macdavis estive na espera e esperança de você fazer uma série do DOOM64 🤟🤟🖤🖤🖤

[@zacherybates427]

The final trap in the EXIT room is so EVIL especially in the original N64 version, imagine you didn't know the floor will drop to inescapable lava pit and you die, ALL THAT WORK WASTED cause you can't SAVE midpoint!!! EVIL!

[@Megawatt]

I just found that out 5 minutes ago. N64 is a hell of a lot darker than this version too.

[@Meatman8089]

After the meteor shower and "slow ride", we're back to regular scheduled slaughter! 😅
