Not yet. I never got into FPS games when I was younger, so these are some of the first I'd ever played, to tell you the truth. I've never even played Half-Life 1 or 2, Unreal Tournament, Duke Nukem 3D, and so on. It's strange to come play all these "classics" for the first time as a 30-year-old man, but honestly I feel like I'm in a better mental state to enjoy them than when I was a kid (while my reflexes are still intact, that is ).

>I don't know if it's always the same guy
well i did it once with the sotc thread so i'd wager it's not always the same guy

I think it used to be the same guy, but since these threads started to appear once every few days it's multiple people now

Y'know, i'm aware of the reputation that precedes Id's shooters, i'm interested in the FPS genre and i'm jumping at the bit to have context before reading Masters of Doom, but my problem is the quantity of pioneer FPSs. Just going through the quintessential classics (in chronological order, because i'm autistic) would be: Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, Doom 2, Duke Nukem 3D, Quake, Quake 2 and Quake 3. What i wouldn't want to do is play them all in a row, however i don't know enough early PC games to go through in-between all that chain, so i'm kind of stuck on that front

>I think it used to be the same guy
Yeah, used to be just me . I have every screenshot saved since Super Mario World, the first thread. I've thought about somehow identifying myself out of pure ego, but i respect too much the principle of anonimity. Plus, there are some tell-tale signs on my threads, so that should be enough
The thing that does worry me is the frequency. There are like 3 of these currently in the catalog

>Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, Doom 2, Duke Nukem 3D, Quake, Quake 2 and Quake 3.
it's not actually that huge of an obstacle to go through all of them -- maybe like 2-3 weeks if you rush and are already good at FPS games, and you could knock them all out in a weekend if you were going nuts
the only bit of that that might be rough to get through is Wolf3D -- fun game, but Doom is genuinely something else compared to it
honestly, I can also say it's a lot harder than the rest too lol

Doom 1 and 2 aren't that long, neither is Q1
sit down and do one episode a day (or like, stop at each intermission screen in Doom 2) and that's a reasonable pace -- you could easily do each game in one go, but it's better to savor it a little (＾Д^)
if you don't really play FPS games already you aren't doing that on UV in one day though lol, stick with HMP for a first playthrough

...I never did play Q2 on PC, and I didn't finish it on PS1 lol. Q3 is an arena shooter, although it does have a campaign with bots.
Play Duke 3D right before playing Q1. I personally think Duke is harder than the id games but maybe I'm just bad.

>The thing that does worry me is the frequency. There are like 3 of these currently in the catalog
the post expiration here on /b/ means it doesn't matter that much, the Shining in the Darkness thread is already Marked for Deletion lol
like, everything after page 4 basically might as well not be there

and really, if you're actually doing something cool like beating games, it's fine ヽ(´∇`)ノ

I didn't mean it for the length. What i'm trying to see is that if i start beating PC games i couldn't jump onto another system until i go through at least up to Quake 1. My intention would be to play a couple of games of other genres in-between each FPS as to not burn myself out. Also, in reality all of those were released within considerable time of each other and i take it there's something to gain by leaving some space between completing each, even if the timeframe is of weeks instead of months

>>112107
you could probably look at Apogee and Epic's classic catalog for PC games people would have been into in the timeframe you were looking at
that would put you down a whole other rabbithole though of stuff to play
