Doom is one of those classic games that everyone is supposed to have played, but that I just can’t get myself to try out. I don’t know, I’m not a big metal fan and the monster designs just don’t appeal to me. But it feels weird, since everyone always seems so enthusastic about it

By today’s standards, the original DOOM is pretty simplistic, and, quite frankly, lacking flair, so I get where you’re coming from.

I know many a player who have never touched DOOM, and yet, they have perfectly wonderful video game lives. 🙂
