What makes Doom so important? Mostly, why is it so damn cool? Other than the demons.

Well, it used to be solely the community, but now I'm kind of obligated to stay. Mapping and programming for ZDoom is pretty fun too I guess. I really enjoy giving out advice to increase mapping efficency more than anything though.

It's better than no community, since this one seems to be the most friendly I have been able to find. Perhaps it's because I have seinority and people respect me. Dunno.

I like the violence.

being able to customize it, that's what makes it good.

The variety. I mean, sure, there's a hell of a lot of generic "demons are invading" maps around here, but there's at least one new way to do things every day, plus the ever-growing community of weapon makers that ensure that we will never have to use the same shotgun for too long.

The speed. Nowadays too many games are realistically slow. This screws the entire action for me. Doom is fast.

I agree with silver sonic on this one.

The maps feels awesome.
INSANELY easy to customize.
Very powerfull when used properly.
Some very good maps and mods.
Lots of blood, all in all, just an awesome game.
