Dear Uncle decino, I discovered your channel when you were progressing through Map 24 of Sunlust and instantly enjoyed your humor and style. I went back and started to watch from Map 1, during which you said "The only way you get better at Doom is to raise the ceiling, your skill ceiling that is." From when I was playing DooM shareware in 1993 with my dad until seeing that video, it was mostly about nostalgia for me and I would play through about half of E1 on HMP and die/give up (didn't even strafe), then blow some things up with cheats. But after that video and watching your Sunlust playthrough I've proudly beaten every map in Doom 1 including Sigil maps, UVMax pistol start/no saves, without watching any playthroughs in advance, aside from looking up a handful of tricky secrets. DooM is more fun than ever. So thank you and keep killing it with your content! (Literally) Now onto Doom II UVMax for me 😨

Sometimes i forget how the mechanics of Doom simple and beautiful it is, especially the weapons giving you less or extra ammo depends on who dropped it and the first shot is always accurate. But the game preventing you from firing BFG and Rocket Launcher by accident after auto selecting is something i genuinely never heard of.

[@makhauser42]

For 04:17 I guess it is a bit confusing, as you pick up 20 cells and need 40 to use with BFG, would be more clear with a big cell pack of 100 cells

[@decino]

Good point, I didn't think about that when shooting footage. But grabbing an energy cell pack doesn't auto switch to it either.

[@_antares031]

9:15 Because of an odd issue that the original doom subtracts one tic from the first frame of muzzle flash state, the faulty muzzle flash frame only appears for one tic, not 2 tics. Of course, the easiest dehacked fix is just changing the duration of the first muzzle flash frame from 5 to 4.

[@MrSchnorkel]

I never knew there was a certain order for weapon auto switches after running out of ammo, it shows the developers' understanding of weapon balance. Since the game can't know what kind of combat situation the player is in, it has to make a blanket decision which weapon would be the most useful one in any situation. The chainsaw ranks low in viability, but is worth more than the rocket launchers self-damage which can kill the player in one unlucky hit. Possible self-damage is apparently still preferable to wasting a BFG shot. But the fist is (normally) so inefficient that the player will most probably die while using it, and wasting BFG ammo is still better than that. Also, the Combat Analysis section of the video is a great explanation for what makes FPS games great. And for why many people start each level with only the pistol. Having fewer weapons along with less ammo means those combat decisions are harder, and as a result the challenge is greater. All while each level is designed to be completable even without weapons form earlier levels.

[@hoodedman6579]

For example using the thompson each time I fire a single bullet by tapping the trigger, I will see and hear the correct single animation and sound but every other player who can see and hear me will see my gun appear to fire 4 bullets before stopping as well as hearing 4 bullets being fired as if I held down the trigger. This is a fun way to mess with people as you can time your shots to appear as if your thompson has a clip size of 80 instead of 20, which will look really strange to anyone who doesnt understand that youre indeed not hacking.

“BOOLets” Is that just Decino’s accent, or is he intentionally trying to make a coding pun?

[@bababooey5402]

IDK, I took it as a reference to Heavy from TF2, given he says bullets in roughly the same way.

[@AndrewP88]

I had been looking for this video Decino! I didn't realise it had not been made yet...

[@allthingsgaming6]

If the shotgun is the workhorse of Doom, the super shotgun is the Christian Okoye of Doom.

[@kinetic03]

lmao a sorta obscure Chiefs running back from the 90s worked its way into the comment section for a classic doom analysis video

[@appidydafoo]

12:27 - I remember discovering that fact on that exact spot of that map when I was about 9, crazy. Would have loved to have a peek under the hood back then, shame I didn't know where to start. I remember making a silly game with my friend on LAN and the Revenant on the barrels map. We would kill everything else and leave the Revenant on the ledge near the circular section. Each of us would bait as many missiles as we could to follow us, then circle strafe in counter-clockwise directions and try to kill each other indirectly with the stream of missiles trailing behind. It was like a bizarre and hilarious game of chicken.

"Don't die lmao and git gud" - truly, words to live by.

Nobody: Doom guy when he picks up a gun: *this... does put a smile on my face.*

[@carljohnson4285]

Decino doesn't just teach me about how DooM works... Decino teaches me DOOM

[@rod9766]

Idk how or why but the enthusiasm and the way you talk on analysis videos really make them comfy and wholesome

[@ComradeAtSpace95-Antarean]

12:43 WTF that Plasma Rifle(Gun) is Loud Ass Blue Diamond Weapon

[@Muscleduck]

Me: "well that was lunch break, back to work" Decino: *uploads a new vid* Me: "That's 18 mins of break extra"

[@Damian_1989]

I still say "el-em-ay-oh" instead of "luh-ma-oh"

[@kevinp1046]

It's okay, dawg. I say "oh-em-gee" and "bee-arr-bee" in casual conversation because I think I'm witty.

[@RealRedRabbit]

This is the most thorough and statistical analysis of Doom I've ever seen. Good shit. I love this kinda techinal stuff.

[@ericschuster2680]

9:28 cursed knowledge

[@AlanBenitez1105]

I am surprised by the power of some weapons like the "rocket launcher" and the "BFG". Your channel is all there is to know about Doom, it's like a library xd

[@doomfan6493]

Yeah, the damage on those weapons are suprising, but you need that fire power when your dealing with large groups of enemys or bosses

[@night_sniper5754]

You can outrun your own rocket and it will pass through you. *Spooky* Excuse me, Im more concerned about a man being able to outrun rockets.

[@samedwards3285]

you make me invested into things i can't even comprehend

[@CyberneticSheep]

The Rocket is just too loyal to his owner.

[@PhillipLarsen]

YESSSSS! The video I've been expecting, but have been in the background holding patiently, because these videos are just that amazing.

[@polymorphic2579]

Finally,I can know why imps and soldiers vanish after I tap my super shotgun

[@alfred012345]

When I was a kid, this game amazed me due to its unique mechanics. Now you've done an excellent job by explaining how stuff works. Thanks a lot.

[@alexrexaros9837]

Am I the only one who finds the Chaingun to be kind of underwhelming?

[@iguana9173]

Sleeping in on Sunday and this is the first thing I am watching while having breakfast.

[@_Tzer]

classic doomguy is a stratedgist outhinking demons using their own artifacts and bullets they leave behind against them modern doomguy is just a dude thats buff as hell.

[@stalkerwastaken]

yeah i don't like the modern games as much as the original because of that

[@Gemidori]

Modern Doomguy does have some strats in that he infiltrated the BFG10K to blast Mars open, and destroyed Hayden's equipment because he knew the morbid truth behind Argent energy and didn't want anyone taking advantage of it But I will agree that he's primarily a buff angry as hell dude

[@_Tzer]

@@Gemidori did he even hesitate to blast mars open iirc doesnt mars have some human stuff on it.

[@paperclip6377]

I was disappointing to learn that gameplay doom slayer isn't lore accurate doom slayer. I thought he was just really skilled but turns out he's just Invincible.

[@VenusSnow23]

Can't afford to be a member, so I hope you see this. You are such a massive help with my depression. Thank you brother 💙
