At the end of the day, it's a game about killing demon, plain and simple. It might not be 'deep' or intellectually stimulating, but it's simplicity is what makes it so amazing. And Doom continues to inspire us today.Įvery time a new Doom game is released, we're reminded why we love video games, and why we started playing them in the first place. The creators of Doom showed us all that it was possible for a few talented individuals to take their own unique path, creating a piece of art immortalized in pixels that was nothing like anything that came before it.
And it's thanks to Doom that many of our most beloved games ever got created in the first place. Because it was Doom that paved the way for the very first FPSs to take their first baby steps into existence. Since the early 90's this game has had a special place in the hearts of most video game fanatics in the world, especially those who appreciate a good first-person-shooter. Of all the games that have ever been made, few have a reputation like Doom.
