Doom 1 DLC
Almost no difference from the original
SUPER SHOTGUN, essa é a minha honesta opinião, gostoso demais e gostei da linearidade ser maior que o 1 por que pude so curtir e ir matando bicho sem me ligar onde eu ia embora
I was having so much fun playing mods for Doom that when my dad said he could get me Doom 2, I didn't care much since at the time, it had few mods. Eventually, I did get it, and I continued playing it, by playing the mods and mostly ignoring the base game.
When I did play the base game, though, I was greeted with a pleasant surprise: vastly improved level design. I didn't care much for the base game of Doom 1, but Doom 2's levels showed such a huge leap in creativity and design that I was really surprised. So I give it a lot of credit for that. Still, I predominantly played mods, and this and Doom 1 defined my middle school gaming experience (while I still played SNES games).

pistol started this time too. on the whole better than the first barring like 3 stinker maps. the highs it hits (eg inmost dens and abandoned mines) and the expanded enemy roster are enough to forgive some failed level design experiments.
Violence😈
doom 1993 but with more bullshit and one new gun
hurt is good, pain is good, death is good, kill is good
At the end of the day, it's still Doom, so it is good. But holy shit this level design is fucking frustrating.
what else would i give it????
Not as timeless as the first game due to some at times questionable level design, but it's still more classic Doom with a few new goodies.
super shotgun, simplesmente
what do i do?

I love it but the game's an asshole all throughout! Still can't get enough of the double barrel shotgun; and circle strafing becomes its own sport in this one.
An interesting spin on the original Doom formula. This game is more unforgiving and in some levels even unfair. It is a lengthy game with weird design choices. The design (for some people) can be frustrating, at some points in the game you can be teleported to a tiny room filled with demons that decrease your hardly found health. Despite this, the game is fun, and the game loop just shouts early FPS level design.
For me, the levels are more fun to explore than the ones in the original Doom. Backtracking is not tedious and in fact, it's challenging, since many enemies may emerge from hidden rooms that are in previously cleared areas. Most levels are well distributed between fierce action and quick exploration. Sometimes you may see very obvious secrets, other times you will be punching or shooting the walls in every level.
Sound design and music are not my cup of tea. However, I understand the hardware it was developed on, and also the influence of metal and 90's rock music. The variety of demons makes this game more dynamic. You are forced to play the game differently compared to the original game.
In the end, this game improves on the formula of the original Doom. This game is proof that a simple game loop is sometimes better than a game with complex mechanics.

As a kid this absolutely blew me away, and I played it way more than Doom 1. I usually would have a blast with the first 10 or so levels though and then start getting extremely confused and lost looking for keycards and switches as things went on. As an adult I much prefer the level design in Doom 1. Guns still feel great in this though, and the enemy death noises are classic. Awesome music
These guys kind of blew ass on some of the levels but they put the SSG in so I can forgive some of it.
Bu oyunun fazla uzun olması aşırı sıkıyor. Üstelik son bossu falan angarya ve çöp gibi hissettiriyor normal düşmanlarla savaşmak daha keyifliydi ama son bölümde bildiğim pazar gibi kalabalık olunca sinirden köpürüyor insan. Kaç defa oynadım şunu yine sinirlendim.
Doom 1 took me about 5 hours to complete but this game was a little longer. Doom II is a more difficult game than the first, both because of new enemies like the Revenants, and because of the increase of puzzles, parkour and backtracking throughout the levels. I honestly like this change, and it helps Doom II be just different enough from the first game while still feeling like a true sequel.
I don't have a lot of flaws, but there are 2 that come to mind. I feel like the ost is a bit of a step down, often sounding like elevator music. And the second is that I don't think the level design is as appealing. One thing that I loved about the first one was that the levels got more and more surreal the further into the game you got. Doom II has progression throughout its level designs, but not as cool or memorable as the first game.
Overall, really fun game. If you liked the first game you'll probably enjoy this one too!

el fin de los tiempos despues del fin de los tiempos
Gameplay itself is nice, clean fun. Super Shotgun is OP, I love it, and I liked the new enemies that were introduced as well (hearing an idle Archvile (or even worse, an alert one) definitely had me going "!!!!"). I went back to Doom 1 to trawl through the secret levels, which I'd missed on my first playthrough, and found myself missing the Super Shotty and the monster variety. Doom 2's worth it for that alone.
My favourite vanilla levels were probably MAP08 (Tricks and Traps) and MAP23 (Barrels O' Fun), oh and MAP31+MAP32, the Wolfenstein easter egg secret levels. But for the most part I actually do agree with a lot of gripes expressed in other reviews regarding the level design, which is where it loses half a star for me compared to Doom 1. As most of us know the development of this game was a little rushed - and it shows in places. I felt myself getting a little burnt out towards the end - not that I wanted to stop playing the game necessarily, more that I was wanting Doom 2's vanilla campaign specifically to just end soon. I think the lack of actual episodes like there were in Doom 1, rather just one big protracted thing with small intermissions but no explicit delineation between "episodes", also didn't help.
I like a good modding scene, and Classic Doom (1 and 2)'s is still going strong 30+ years on. I'm probably still gonna play Doom 2 to delve into some mods I have lined up and am excited to explore.

Played with brutal doom on gzdoom which probably explains why i enjoyed it a lot more than 1 on chocolate doom
I think industrial zone might be the least fun map in the game but i genuinely liked the stupid gimmick maps. Super shotgun is insanely fun but i really like what BD did to the normal shotgun. I definitely used that as my main weapon.

The new enemies have too much health and the lack of episodes (i.e. arsenal wipes) means things get really monotonous if you don't pistol start, which the game doesn't tell you to do
Super Shotgun my beloved
My favourite game ever for a long time, only competing with Dark Souls.
It has everything that made the original Doom great but with a new weapon (the double barreled shotgun, the greatest invention of mankind) new enemies, and new levels based on innovative themes, like the city levels (even if they're not my favourite type of levels, i appreciate the variety).
There's not much to say about this game, it's just great and paved the way for many actual games. Must play.
Oh, and the music is great.

Actually the worst megawad.
Mataram a coelha do Doom Guy, agora os demônios estão preso na terra com ele, não o contrário
Very ahead of its time. A true gaming revolution
Level Design and Music is weaker in this sequel, but makes up for it by giving you the holy double barrel, and having your ass barbecued by the skinny Fluck.
The game is over all fun but is hurt by bugs and inacesable areas leaving the player feeling needlessly incomplete. Some levels seemed to be a good idea but on higher difficulties are just anoying sutch as MAP22. Some of the later levels remain difficult but are more rewarding.
