Spectres are the Arch-viles of Fast Ultra-Violence

[@Llortor]

I've always felt that the Nightmare difficulty helped the atmosphere of Episode 1, like it's an ongoing invasion, plus it helps with how easy the entire nine levels are on any other difficulty.

3:18 - half-expecting a 256 colour Bill Gates in a trench coat to come out and start raving about Windows 95.

[@carl_the_]

what is the reference

[@schmoo3309]

Charles H. There was an ad ages ago for the windows 95 (I think) featuring bill gates in a coat superimposed into doom, it was meant to advertise the windows 95 as a gaming computer. The timestamp is the background he was imposed onto

[@carl_the_]

@@schmoo3309 i just remembered that!

[@schmoo3309]

Charles H. Cool :) it was a weird ad, but I guess it's cool he reached out to the gaming community.

[@carl_the_]

[@maxipejsek]

There is a switch in the baron closet? Wow, mindblown.

[@jeremiasastorga8399]

Anyone else find that classic Doom maps are strangely cool? Like, they have an air of simplicity to them that makes them really satisfactory. Maybe it's just nostalgia.

[@abyssalAnalyst]

Yeah, I feel the same. In fact, I don't really like DOOM II and modded stuff that much because I lack that strange feeling that I get while playing the classic DOOM. Its level design shows creative, but very careful approach to the map building. Feels like a very tight pack of something really nice. Heretic and Hexen also have the same vibe, as I can remember.

[@Koistork]

That's the good old Romero level design charm that wasn't in much of Doom II, With Sandy and all.

[@usagijojo]

It's funny how your 100% playthrough of the entire first episode of Doom is only a little bit longer than the average levels of Hell Revealed 1 & 2.

[@Razgard]

My thoughts exactly.

[@mjc0961]

...Fast monsters, and pistol start every level. And here I thought I was pretty good because I play on vanilla Ultra Violence. Apparently I still have much to master.

[@dudejo]

I heard once that every level was designed to be playable from a pistol start

[@wolfkermek]

@@dudejo they are, because if you die you restart the level with nothing, they wanted you to still be able to beat each level

The music of the last level is in my opinion the vest Doom music ever, I just love it

[@cocochocomoo15]

I just found your channel because your Doom world record video was in my recommended, but I find all of your videos very entertaining and I'm here to stay!

[@T-West]

I never realized there was a switch in the Baron room on the final level.

[@ChusenOne]

Has to be more secrets on one single Doom level than the whole Hell Revealed 1 and 2 together

[@PingSWang]

Good ol' Knee-Deep In the Dead. When the game was released, I remember I kept using IDDQD & IDKFA and still got claustrophobic by the map.

[@Smokecall]

9:56 I never knew you could hit the switch from that height and angle

[@PeterLawrenceYT]

@@killaken2000 There **is** height in Doom, just some things don't care about height, such as the ability to hit switches from any height. Doom is a 3D game but a limited form of 3D, so no rooms over rooms (even if the Wikipedia article claims it's 2.5D, it's mostly refering to objects being 2D sprites). One example of Doom being 3D is projectiles can fly over your head. Another example would be just use your eyes! The game clearly has an X, Y and Z axis.

[@GroundMemory]

I've played Episode One of Doom so many times (thanks to the shareware demo from back in the day) and I've literally never found that secret at 25:25. Today was the first time I've even seen it.

[@THEGRUMPTRUCK]

No matter whether UV or Nightmare, my favorite thing about Episode 1 is just blitzing around with the chaingun murdering everything. It doesn't stop being fun.

[@harbingerdawn]

Me: "Did you say 'turbo pinky', or 'terrible pinky'?" Decino: "Yes"

[@RobotPilots]

They both are the same thing anyways.

[@moskiz]

It's not like watching a TV show, but I think we're almost there (it is often even better). Calm and relaxing voice, interesting insights and that sensation of wanting to let go of anything just to start playing Doom again and again, even the vanilla one (probably still the best one). Kudos for your work, mate!

[@getter7seven]

Extremely entertaining and impressive! At a rough glance, it would appear I have roughly 5-6 entire playlists to catch up on here at this fine channel...

Your videos are getting me into doom! Currrently at E1M5 on HmP and getting into UV, but no --fast or pistol respawn. Keep it up!

[@AgainstTheeWickedlyMusic]

I'll always hold The Ultimate Doom as the best. It blows my mind how something can be, honestly, so bland, yet still be so memorable. I do love Doom II, and I'm undecided on Final Doom, but this game will always be the best to me. HOWEVER, it really could've used the Super Shotty, especially seeing this playthrough.

[@brentreid8228]

Mad lad did the whole episode. Decino knew we wouldn’t want a two minute upload.

[@maadpaw7378]

Next up: 100% playthrough of Hell Revealed II with fast monsters

[@extragirth64]

I am playing Doom again after watching your videos. I have not played Doom 1 & 2 seriously in ... more than 15 years. I always thought I would play again with Brutal Doom but your Vanilla Doom videos have pushed me over the edge. However I do play occasionally with one mod: *Beautiful Doom.* I like seeing the better weapon animations.

[@korbindallas4787]

Great job, I've never seen this fast mode before. I love these 100% play throughs you've been posting, its inspired me to try to do pistol starts in other FPS games, so far I've attempted Duke Nukem 20th anniversary edition but I had to lower the difficulty cause I'm a bit out of practice!

[@decino]

Keep in mind that most games are not built around pistol starts. Doom is because you lose your guns when you die.

[@korbindallas4787]

Great change of pace from Hell Revealed my man! We get to feel all nostalgic with these maps but on steroids with difficulty, hahaha! Well done!

[@xMrGreeneJeansx]

I finished all your fast monsters playthroughs and am going back and watching this again. Knee Deep in the Dead is my "home" when it comes to Doom. Played the demo version of Doom 95 on Windows 95 back around 25 years ago. Only came with this episode. Played it through at least 50 times. I remember seeing friends playing Doom 2 and using things like the SSG and fighting Revenants. I didnt know the difference between Doom 2 and the first one. I spent a ton of time looking for all secret areas because I was certain the SSG or those Doom 2 exclusive demons were in Knee Deep *somewhere.* It was a fruitless search but still some of the most fun I've ever had with video games. :)

[@Death_Korps_Officer]

When I said in the last chapter of Hell Revealed II that you have to do everything again, I didn't mean this!! 😂 Great video as always anyway!

[@cheefii8761]

Your videos have gotten me into classic doom and inspired me to start my own UV -fast playthrough :) love your channel! Pistol start's been really fun too, it adds a lot to the game

[@shallowman]

Yes! The -fast category is my favorite but rarely anyone seems to play it! Hope to see this with other wads as well!

[@MMedi]

I'm loving these my dude! Keep up the good work

[@ashlynmorarjee1391]

Been dreading the end of HR2, this gives me hope

[@paradust]

God I remember playing this as shareware when it came out. On a 486 40-something mhz.

[@AtomizerX]

I played it on a Packard Bell, 486DX 50 MHz with 4 MB RAM (or I think maybe we started with 2 and upgraded to 4...) and a 400 MB HDD in 1993.

[@paradust]

@@AtomizerX Those were the days. My ISA graphics card had 512kb VRAM. I got a solid 20+ FPS in Doom in 320x200 on a 14 inch VGA monitor.

[@paradust]

21:41 - that's one gimpy swastika on the floor (there used to be a swastika there originally, much like in one level in Wolfenstein 3D, but due to criticism it got gimpyfied).

[@pst2679]

Commander Keen 5 got one too

[@paradust]

@@pst2679 It does indeed!

[@russianbotfarm3036]

Maybe it changed between the freeware demo and the full version. I don’t remember people being so sensitive about it back in 1993. But, I guess Germany has always been sensitive about it.

[@krustin]

@imuglierthanyou it was a military veteran who requested that the swastika be removed actually.

[@mresturk9336]

@@krustin Apparently it was a WWII veteran whose letter was so polite and well spoken that it really moved the Id Software devs. They decided since it the vetern was so respectful in making his point that they'd return the respect and change it. It's also really easy to de-censor in a map editor for those that want it back.

[@ehrae]

Man I remember playing this was the best between my friends I am nostalgic

[@steveskipper6473]

So weird after years of watching runs by the likes of Zero Master and King Dime to see all those Episode 1 secrets again.

[@Gargantupimp]

I also played with ultra violence and fast, but with tons of saving and no pistol start. It was a great challenge but some sections were really hard and hit scan enemies were really difficult. I'm going through Doom 2 now and it's much harder. I'm looking forward to you playing Doom 2.

[@BMW-Registeredtrademark]

I remember my dad completing all of doom when I was a child them memories of the game case filled with codes for all the levels once you've completed a level back then that's how you got back to the level I had nightmares over this game it's crazy

[@KamiJoJo]

Oh boy we are going classic! 👌

[@vali6717]

Nice to finally have a ‘guide’ to the secrets I have always missed in E1. I always get turned around and spending a lot of time wandering lost in one of these maps so it’s cathartic seeing someone not get turned around by it. I might even go back and give Doom a shot again, though I will probably be using mouse aim for comfort.

[@hurykles99]

Pinky's like "Gotta go fast!"

[@pst2679]

This was a nice run. I wish good luck for the other episodes, especially for episode 3 and 4.

[@popeyboy5108]

The first level was ahead of it's time! A secret within a secret! Having to traverse damaging floors for an armour. Romero really went above and beyond!

[@sodaresoda]

Yes! Best way to start the weekend. Thanks @decino.

"I'd rather fight 10 spooks than 2 shaved gorillas" Plutonia listened.

Nice. Hope this series continues well into Doom 2 and Final Doom

[@decino]

Doom II for sure

[@Zelousmarineinspace]

decino Excellent. Yeah you’re probably right, Final Doom with fast monsters is quite tough, especially Map11 of Plutona, god that would be a nightmare

[@decino]

More worried about TNT's map 8 and 9!

[@Zelousmarineinspace]

Oh yeah, I remember that. More familiar with Plutona than TNT. But yeah that would be an amazing challenge to beat Final Doom this way. Wish you the best of luck if you ever decide to undertake the challenge!

[@AtomizerX]

I love how you just casually have all the secrets memorized. I mean I'm sure you play the original Doom/Quake games pretty regularly, but still.

The imp might have fallen there when you blew the barrel

[@trisar2146]

Not sure if anyone really cares, but if you go back and watch at slower speeds, you can just BARELY see the imp as decino is heading back inside, having wandered outside while he was dealing with the shotgunners, probably because he was hanging back so far to avoid getting scammed by the shotties at close range. The imp is visible for barely a frame as decino runs back in.

Out of Doom, Doom 2 and Final Doom, I always thought Episode 1 of Doom had the best secrets. It rewarded you for listening, and it always showed you the prize from outside the secret (the chainsaw in E1M2, soulsphere E1M3 ect...)​ just so you would explore more.

Well now... Just wanted to have a little fun on KZbin and since it's been a long time of me playing Doom I tried my luck and you popped up. I'm just to inform you that you got an instant sub from me 😃 I absolutely love your "bored" commentary like "Here's the difficult part" and the calmness when you lose like 150hp in a snap. Like really? Playing on fast ultra violence? And you fly trough the first act in 45 minutes? Last time I played like that it took me almost a day 🤣 Looking forward to see more from you... Just give me time 😉 Also... It's been a time that I heard the sound of a zombieman turning into a puddle of piss by an exploding barrel 🤣😂🤣 I love it! 🧨 Great job! 👍 Keep 'em comin' 😎
