Damn that was quick! It only released yesterday 😂 Haha now you know what it's like to do commentary while playing on Nightmare!

[@riba2233]

I hate pistol start and nightmare, but I will still play this wad because you made it and I am sure it is going to be awesome :)

[@danielja1832]

Well done Peter! This looks fantastic! I'll have to give it a try sometime

[@asabovesobelow1362]

Thanks for the wad Peter.

[@AB0BA_69]

The first map taking advantage of double ammo in NM as a secondary check on difficulty was dang smart. I'm going to enjoy watching Decino play this WAD, but it's definitely not meant for my skill level and that's OK. Beautiful work, mate!

His purpose is to eliminate all Nintendemons he sees, to avenge the death of his pet rabbit, GiIvaSunner.

"Grab the megasphere, because items, kill the revenant, because annoying..." It's stream-of-consciousness stuff like this that makes watching these playthroughs so fun.

[@Thatguy5606]

@Numbered--Weighed--Divided That's... what stream-of-consciousness *is*. No filter, no processing, just a continued stream of verbalized thought.

[@GroundMemory]

That was one of my favorite moments too lol

[@DinnerForkTongue]

@Numbered--Weighed--Divided Buddy, doing commentary in simplified ways because your attention is focused on something else is EXACTLY what stream-of-consciousness is about. What's even your point lmao?

[@DinnerForkTongue]

@Numbered--Weighed--Divided Even if you're not an expert, you sure as Tooshie's zoomies did your homework. I'm impressed!

Decino starting a whole new wad to procrastinate on having to do the next map of Italo Doom, we love to see it

[@tatamimats]

came here to say that

[@benhammond365]

“Not Even Remotely Fair” might just be one of the best names I’ve heard for a DOOM WAD.

[@iguana9173]

Yes it is.

[@DinnerForkTongue]

That's not a good name, it's false advertising! These levels are designed to be fair on Nightmare! 🤪

[@bababooey5402]

@@DinnerForkTongue I think that was the joke the WAD was going for; thanks. :/

[@bababooey5402]

(sorry if that was rude)

[@DinnerForkTongue]

@@bababooey5402 JSYK, I was playing along with the memeing.

[@Dwars]

Making Do It Again was quite a fun endeavor. It's my second actual map and the first I released to the public. Finding a way to make an interesting mechanic on nightmare was a fun endeavor, but I definitely have to thank Peter and Benchy for suggestions/tweaks and detailing the map up respectively! All the other maps are definitely a real hoot too, and Christophine's map in particular is gorgeous. I'm certainly looking forward to what episode 2 may bring.

[@emmaessex]

really enjoyed your entry! brisk pacing and great reuse of spaces.

[@theshep]

Thanks dwars! Nice contribution.

[@hrnekbezucha]

Very cool, hope you make more :)

congrats on your first public map!

The invincibility Fireblu colour swap is amazing.

[@scottl.1568]

Yeah I've always hated the all-white look

[@DinnerForkTongue]

I legitimately want that for my personal use. Just gotta find out how to extract it.

[@Jeff_the_Hobo]

@@scottl.1568 Is there anyone who doesn't hate it? Almost-literally- No, LITERALLY anything is better than the blinding white.

[@eduardodiaz9942]

Naming your wad "Not Even Remotely Fair" is a true declaration of intentions if I've ever seen any

[@TheRogueWolf]

Proving that truth-in-advertising laws work!

[@ChrisJEPlace]

I'm so happy you enjoyed my map! Thank you so much for playing it for your channel!!

[@bababooey5402]

This is honestly one of the coolest concepts for a WAD, IMO. Never seen anyone actively make a map with ONLY Nightmare! in mind. Love the tip saying "Don't force yourself to Speedrun or shit just because enemies respawn". *Now to get MtPain27 to review this.*

[@bababooey5402]

Also, MFW chainsaw on NM! be baba Booey doodoo fart

[@levesteM]

I literally learned about this WAD a few hours ago while browsing doomworld and thought "It'd be cool if Decino made a video on it." Looking forward to this series. Nightmare's not really my thing, but at least this seems manageable.

[@AB0BA_69]

I've been missing Decino's videos lately and then he comes by and drops this one hour banger with excellent gameplay and good tunes. Dude's a G.

[@DinnerForkTongue]

This is manageable because it was specifically designed for Nightmare, rather than regular maps where the respawning and enemy density are just "F U" to the player.

[@TheMisterGuy]

Even more awesome that Decino made part of it!

[@Ilikewater-andice]

"Sometimes harming is better than killing" ~Decino Tzu

[@halb23]

That mansion level was so beautiful and cute. All those details you don't have time to appreciate!

[@jamesduncan6729]

It's almost cruel how there are so many cute little details, but due to the nature of the wad you won't have much time to really take in all the sights 😭

[@DinnerForkTongue]

[@0neDoomedSpaceMarine]

Ghost-Monster Specters on forced Nightmare! difficulty I think has to be one of the most *terrifying* usages of stock Doom monsters I've ever seen. Fast as hell, hard to see, hard to kill (never staying dead either) and difficult to run from.

[@DinnerForkTongue]

You really gotta think in advance when you'll be encountering them in a map.

[@arrowtongue]

I love the little details like the slightly changed color palate to have nicer colors and drippy on every bit of text to reflect the Nightmare difficulty option, it makes this feel so professional

[@arrashishiv1591]

Can't believe that Decino is CBT enjoyer. Truly he is man of culture.

[@VolcanoPenguin]

Decades later, we are still seeing purely genius innovation off of 1-2 old 3d shooter games. I love this game, I love this community, and I love the content creators that eloquently present both their work and others work. I also enjoy the shitposting 🙂👌

[@DinnerForkTongue]

11:51 That's just the thing about playing on Nightmare: even if enemies respawn, killing them gets them out of your way for a while. And you get double the ammo to do it with, so don't get trigger-shy!

[@BrianM_3rd]

Often wondered if there were any WADs designed specifically for Nightmare, looking forward to this one!

[@inkmime]

"You have to trigger the all-ghosts effect to finish the level" oh my god that is... such a completely stupid way to design a level and yet is a brilliant, nightmare specific joke on the player

[@ShallowVA]

This actually looks like a really fun gimmick. It’s like an anti-slaughter wad.

[@WW-zt1zs]

I am really impressed by the visual style of this WAD. Color pallet is handsome and detail is rich.

[@megasphere308]

Having decino grab the chainsaw on Nightmare, well done Peter :P Congrats everybody for this set of maps, it looks very interesting so no doubt I'll download it! 👍

[@doomerrasa8475]

Can't wait for your playthroughs of the sequel wads - "very deliberately hostile", "frustrating by design", and "cognitive behavioral therapy" Nah but on a serious note I love how they bothered to have a manual nightmare check on the first map when you already have to select nightmare, so extra

[@DinnerForkTongue]

Because you can definitely expect the community to bypass the modded difficulty select. It's what I'd do.

[@TheGuyWhoIsSitting]

"This is a SilvaGunner, he's like a chaingunner but uploads high quality rips"

[@soranuareane]

First map Borogk ever made and it looks THAT good? Dude has some talent! They should keep making maps!

[@Batgirl_fangirl]

Well that was just insane! I still don't know how you do it. Playing at this pace on this difficulty and with calm compelling commentary. We done decino 🙂💛

[@p3wter0l0l3]

Would love to see you show this off on lower difficulties so we can see the cyber demons

[@Kepesk]

This is a cool mapset, guys. Congrats to everyone who contributed, you guys made something really intriguing.

[@Insulted25]

The SilvaGunner, for when you need high quality rip and tear.

[@lukebehrendsbro.]

You guys are amazing when it comes to this project and maps that looks amazing enough as it is. You, Dwars, and Peter are the only 3 I subscribed for your awesomeness. Others are really cool to so I'm glad I would get to know them a tiny bit. I would never do this at all why? Nightmare is where I really suck at for the most part. Hats off to you all's!

[@DinnerForkTongue]

No love for Borogk and Coincident? They deserve it!

[@OmegaTyrant]

I never really been keen to play Nightmare myself, I play too slowly for it, but always love watching Nightmare runs, how hectic Nightmare can get is certainly a spectacle to witness.

[@santhiagodefreitasbenedito9369]

I'm always on the lookout for Lovecraft themed .wads, maps, mods or anything at all, the Rats On The Walls map was really great! When I first saw the map name, I started to wonder how they would gimmick the map based on the tale, with some maddening sound or something, but the ghost spectres we're genius, could never see that coming, and the "Doom Cute" on it just makes it more detailed and loreful, like a non-eldritch, dream-like tale would be, a perfect homage. Also this reminds me of a comment that I made on the God Machine outtake video, that goes "I like to think that this is maybe how HP Lovecraft would play DOOM. Tranquil voice, always educated and explaining everything and TORMENTED BY THE HORRORS OF DOOM IN A REPEATED, DREAMING, AND TIME WASTING MANNER!!!"

[@fnchwzrd3143]

While I don't think the gimmick is particularly interesting, I'm interested to see what clever design is implemented to force the player to chose nightmare

[@morgus9215]

Probably some dehacked stuff

[@reptongeek]

I think It's a combination of the double ammo and tag 667

[@DinnerForkTongue]

You can tune the difficulties in MAPINFO. In this case they're used to disable the non-NM difficulties.

[@NightAsterisk]

I'm really enjoying the fast paced gameplay of nightmare with your overall commentary, goodshit.

[@Ben_of_Langley]

Looks really fun once I'm done with the current mods I'll have to give it a go been looking forward to your next video and got an hour long one so that's a really nice treat so with that as always cheers for upload decino

[@tek4]

I doubt I'll ever have the skill you do. Loved your midi and map level. And really enjoy what you do.

[@Kepesk]

Across The Highlands is really cool. That's an insane use of Dead Simple mechanics to make a really unique final fight. I love it!

[@BeheadedKamikaze]

Wow that final exit! haha Excellent wad, excellent playthrough! Very entertaining, thanks decino! Love your map and your midi too. ❤

[@cornmike1854]

Fireblu slime! Cool set. Thanks for all the great playthroughs!

[@MillywiggZ]

Damn, NERF has changed since I was a kid.

[@jamesduncan6729]

The doomcute in these maps is off the charts! I adore it 😆♥️ Amazing job decino. Truly awesome stuff 👍🏻

[@endless_doom5337]

decino at it again! This looks like a pretty cool project. Glad to see your expansion towards mapping :)

[@reltsnie]

Loving this, very cool idea for a wad

[@danielmiller3781]

I have never seen a map set that is designed to be played on Nightmare, I usually play on UV but this looks interesting (because I am not a fan of respawning enemies).

[@DinnerForkTongue]

Nightmare can be alright if you design a wad around it.

[@comradecrimsonsmaidenporiu8766]

That little giggle after "a hitler painting covered in poop" got me good.

[@ShakarAtar]

I absolutely love visuals of all the maps. They are so amazingly well done and it was a pleasure to watch. Gotta say that Map 06 Rats in the Walls was the most beautiful one XD loved that one so much and as Decino said, the people who love Going Down (like I did) will love that map, which I also did. So great video XD

[@w0lfram582]

This wad is really good especially knowing that this are made by the loving Doom community. All the visuals and the MIDIs fits the vibe of the atmosphere of the maps, and some strange music too and the credits xD. Also knowing that decino took part of this is really cool and sure proud of it. Overall very cool and commendable :)

[@maranainfirmux777]

Oooh, a nightmare run. This is gonna be fun.

[@douglewis7946]

"Nightmare or bust?" My good man, I do believe you mean "It's NERF or nothin."

got a chance to play this one this morning as well, it's wonderful! i *really* enjoyed your poogers maps, for what it's worth. they may be gimmicky "shitposts" but i had never seen anything like moonshot before and the revenant missile one was a lot of really cool setpieces. your map for this is great too! i'm taken by quite a few of the entries here. i'm excited to see where the project goes. really really good stuff!

[@GarbageFire13]

I was thinking that other day about how a map could exploit the all ghosts effect, like accessing a secret exit or what-not. Pretty surprising that someone else actually came up with something for that last map, even if it's a literal meme.

[@NerfPlayeR135]

0:10 “Not Even Remotely Fair, AKA _NERF”_ I feel personally called out by this.

[@rallyrobb943]

I love your 100% playthroughs normally, but this was a nice switch. Look at speedy Decino go!

[@r2dezki]

This was so good! Never thought I would see decino play one of his own maps..

[@taylorkelly6414]

Incredible playthrough, you really are making it look easy!

[@ChicDead26]

Hey, great wad, your map looks really fun!

[@dantheman2888]

I haven't been around long enough to know if this is the first NIGHTMARE! doom vid, but I'm still really excited! Kick some ass decino!!

These levels are incredibly inventive, by the way.

[@gustavrochester8095]

this video is really long, but thats a great thing for your content. Your content is enjoyable for a LOOOONG time.

[@BooTheJudge]

Wow, that's a nice surprise. I was hoping you would make a playthrough of this, but I didn't expect it so soon. And I sure as heck didn't expect my humble map to be featured in the thumbnail. I'm glad to be a part of this project and I really enjoyed all of the maps. Mine are probably the easiest, because I suck at Doom, LMAO (and I still had to be able to beat my own maps).

[@furorteutonicus9045]

Intermission screen with Gabber? lol Epic!

[@grandsteack]

Greetings decino, it was very nice to see you experiment the nightmare difficulty on dedicated levels. Congrats for you playthrough and for your first map, without forgetting your midis.

[@dootcoyt5775]

First time decino tryin' to get 100% of items, nice

[@n00f]

I've enjoyed spying on this project from time to time. Great to see familiar names making their mark with bite-sized, well designed levels. I've learned that fast monsters are outside my wheelhouse, but it's a blast to watch all the same.

[@rmgkr]

Awesome wad, definitely a very different way to play Doom, I like it.

[@Starduster]

YES finally a good nightmare wad I’ve been waiting forever!

[@PeterLawrenceYT]

Damn, awesome to see you here Starduster!

[@GroundMemory]

This was a lot of fun to watch, an interesting change of pace. I have also mostly stayed away from Nightmare, but this WAD is a must. It's now on my Must Play list. And to hear you say that Peter is recruiting more map makers from Doom World? I'm excited to see what the amazing collective of Doom fans will produce involving enforced Nightmare mechanics. So far, this has been quite the ride! Can't wait to see more!

[@foxbonesmulder]

This gauntlet challenge is just another way to test your skills and level up in order to absolutely destroy Haste and ItaloDoom. Hell yeah, this was a great video!!

[@SamekhAniki]

I loved your song contribution for this WAD. It gave me strong Stickerbush Symphony vibes…

[@pbjandahighfive]

These videos you do where you already know the map and just do commentary about them are personally my favorite offerings of yours. Not super into watching blind playthrough unless it's on a livestream. Prerecorded blind playthroughs just don't have the same enjoyment to me. Also, Map06 was SEXY AF. Holy sh*t the detail was absolutely fantastic.

[@theshep]

woohoo, made it all the way through. Nice closing gimmick, haha. Very cool mapset. I'll have to try it soon. Nice to have a pseudo walkthrough in case I want all the items. Can't wait until the eventual episodes 2 and 3. Good luck to Peter on recruitment! Thanks decino!

[@dericthomas5010]

Ur very good at this love watching ur doom videos

[@nothingspecial5254]

Damn, I really dig FIREBLU invul palette. It's the cherry on top of the cake of the wad.

Decino playing on Nightmare? In my Doom? The world never ceases to amaze me. Lol. Great work.

[@DARKLORD20097]

Great stuff, man. I love it.

[@ag23415]

0:45 hearing the meme fart sound in a doom mod had me laughing for a good half hour.

[@bjorntrollgesicht1144]

This looks like a descendant of the ancient demoscene. The Doom community is one of the best, most creative ones one there.

[@MrEW1985]

Neat idea to paste all the levels on each other into one video.

[@decino]

The maps are short enough for that after all.

[@TheStylesjl]

An interesting series of maps. I can't think of any other Doom WAD designed solely to be run on Nightmare, with all the other difficulties intentionally ignored. It is pretty well done. Congrats on your first map, it kicks ass!

[@Roy-hn4ek]

Of course you get the big finale map, nicely done decino. Good work from the whole team for coming together and doing this map set, interesting concept to make a nightmare only playable set... way above my skill level to play, but really enjoyable to watch. Maybe i will be good enough to play it in the future 🙃 That last intermission screen after Grudge, well whatever. What makes you guys happy 😄

[@theshep]

Nice map man! Good finale :)

[@davidmcgill1000]

Glad to see a WAD that isn't just enemy spam. Impressive.

[@MountainLWolf]

Not bad for your first (normal) map Decino. I noticed the quickest route along the main building has the easiest to gib enemies (51:08). Anyway, it has a nice flow without too many items. I really like the last secret; it demands a moment of appreciation. The color pallet chosen blended well with the space theme and sky box. The Midi is enjoyable and not distracting. I look forward to more of your maps. Thanks

[@deltacee9751]

not saying the yellow thumbnail vids are less good, but it’s so nice watching these vids after a hard day and chomp on some grilled cheese

This is a great showcase of how Nightmare! difficulty changes how the game is played.
