@@RealRushinRussian they (id) were skimpy with the health at lower difficulties. If you played e4m1 on I'm Too Young To Die, all you got was about 10 armor pieces, a green armor, 2 medkits and about 10-12 health vials. e1m1 wasn't as skimpy with the armor (giving you a blue armor as well as a green armor) or the health.
Somehow I found a way to save ammo in M1 and still get all kills. Basically you need to keep all the spectres in red key room alive and trigger the barons, then lure all of them to outside the room with the fence and get the barons to infight with the spectres. That helps saving quite a bit of ammo. And if you save rockets while dealing with the first baron of the level (by using the shotgun), you will have enough to take down all 4 barons at once.
It's a very fun map, can be done with no damage on UV (no tricks). Although for some reason decino decided not to raise a floor at the center of the map (unofficial secret, one of the walls behind three barons in plasma rifle room opens up and there's a switch, makes platforming easier). Speaking of unofficial secrets, a wall can be opened in the first map in the chaingun room that will open up a path to the blue door, but enemies will be able to get you in the chaingun room this way.
This episode frustrated the hell out of me. I could barely make it through on Hurt Me Plenty, let alone on UV with fast monsters. Props to you, good sir. Looking forward to seeing SIGIL.
4:30 "There's four of them. Yeah, four barons." At least you have a rocket launcher. If this was Hell Revealed 1 you would have to deal with 8 barons with a SSG.
51:13 A Baron that never got a chance. Imagine being this demon. You're placed there in a tiny room to wait until Doomguy comes along and lowers the walls to access the switch whereby you instantly die the moment you clap eyes on him. #baronlivesmatter
It is easy enough, once you know what's coming, and the trick of saving your shotgun/chaingun ammo by destroying the pinkies ambush at the red key room - by using your fist. There is a safe spot behind the big block where they cannot get, so they all can be killed safely. This tactic is not shown in this video, but if you do it - then you will be able to shoot down every enemy without problems, and still have a dozen of shotgun shells left in the end.
Oh, so it's not only me? I started on ultraviolins and got totally destroyed several times before I decided to lower the difficulty. I figured I was just out of practice.
"Its boring I know, but I don't have any weapons... well I do have a rocket launcher, but im not suicidal" _starts to remind him of that one time, in the one vid, with the one baron_ meh, Decino prolly doesn't wana remember that... *keeps quiet about it*
Another fantastic Episode. All those low health moments really make me hold my breath. So scary seeing heath that low yet you manage to make it. My goodness! @-@ Well done! Cannot wait for Sigil!
Can we talk about E4M6 for a moment? It's so good! The beginning feels like there's a genuine backstory to it, almost like you're playing Hitman or something, sneaking into the devil's fortress through the sewers... The inside of the fortress keeps the atmosphere up, you're always trying to reach the other side where the Cyberdemon is. And that final fight with the CD, epic! IMO this should have been the last map of TFC, such a memorable map!
E4M6 definitely should have been the final map over Unto The Cruel; besides being more climatic, the challenge is so much more fitting. I recently went through each map on UV+ on pistol start with no saves, and E4M6 took me hours to beat, while I then went and beat E4M7 and E4M8 on my first try, It just feels insulting to play those maps after E4M6.
@@OmegaTyrant The difficulty progression on episode 4 is all over the place. I remember playing E4M2 for the first time and thinking "well, that's it, if this is map 02 then this episode is too hard for me"
*sees this video in his feed* "...dear God, no...WHY?" *realizes it's Decino, and that's how he rolls* "Because why not..." *laughs and applauds the clutch moments*
I recall once playing Doom on the SNES as a kid. I think it came with just the first three episodes. It was insanely difficult to beat levels because of the clunky controller which restricted movement and the extremely low framerate. Turning 180 degrees took a couple seconds. Idk how anyone could have beaten Doom under those conditions. I made it to level 2 of inferno and that was it.
The goosebumps when you hear “Greetings, everyone” Been watching all these play-throughs - inspired me to pick the game up again. Currently playing on IOS which is a bit fiddly but still maniacally fun. Thank you for making these. Also how amazing is it that this is now 30 years old and we’re still all enjoying it. Good times.
45:00: Pretty strange how the Episode 4 map with the most unforgettable name is attached to the most forgettable map... Boss gameplay, btw! Thanks for uploading!
The absolute unit. I -hate- really dislike (compared to other Doom episodes. So basically I still like it) this episode. Fast monsters, UV, pistol start. Madlad.
Very nicely done on those first two levels. Level 6 might be hard but the first two are true challenges. As for the "story", I've always figured it took place on a hellish settlement on Earth near the starport where Doom 2 begins. A good way to transition between them.
I hate you for making me imagine that. Cause not only to hornets sting, they bite, and they sting while they bite. And oooh, that hurts just thinking about it. Still would do that before doing TFC on UV with fast monsters.
Everyone thought that it was impossible to get the final secret in Doom 2 on Map 15, but after 25 years, Zero Master figured it out. The four unobtainable secrets in Episode 4 of The Ultimate Doom might one day be discovered too... in another 25 years maybe.
@@Evil_Ed_Magazin Given that you have invulnerability at the time, if it is indeed possible to be rocket jumped up there, it's much less annoying that it could be.
It's funny how some people think Sigil is bad design because "You have to slow roll some stuff with a shotgun and that isn't fun and therefore bad." But will praise E4? Drooling n00bs probably don't 100%.
I still remember doing They flesh consumed for the first time and hating the fuck out of it. Especially the 2nd level. I was just in disbelief how weird "limited" it feels.
Someone develop this mod. Every demons projectile attack spawns another demon pain elemental style. So every imp fireball summons a lost soul, every baron summons a he'll knight, every he'll knight summons an imp.
That strategy you used on the Barons in Map 2 is actually Romero's intended strat for killing them. Theres a video out there where he plays it and thats how he does it, remarking "you have to"
I completely agree that Ep 4 is all over the place, especially when it comes to difficulty progression... When I first played E4M2 and it was damn impossible, I remember thinking "boy, if this is only map 2, I'm not gonna be able to complete this episode". And then come maps 3-5 which are way easier, so weird! But then again, TFC contains two of the most memorable maps of all of Dooms 1&2 for me -- E4M2 and E4M6.
Decino, thank you so much for pounding this game's ass so hard, while still treating it with love and respect. Each video warms my heart. P.S. I think that Caco is more like a raspberry though.
It should go from Hell to Earth cuz thats the point of this episode. It goes from the depths of hell where the spidermastermind was killed to Earth. It should be transitional. Hell > Less Hell > Very little Hell > Earth but with a lot of shit consumed by Hell > Earth with less corruption > Earth with no corruption This would make your way out from the "center" of hell to the edge and then finally through their earth base and away from that a little more believable.
Episode 4 Thy Flesh Consumed is in hell because doomguy goes back to hell and kills more demons because the demons killed his bunny... (I think an imp did it)
At 9:08 in that cavity where the Barons come from is a switch behind one of the walls that raises the platform in the start room to give you a full platform to work on. It's the easiest way to get ahead on the level safely. Most people don't know about it.
Kudos to you man, although I don't consider my self to be a pro at doom I still think I'm pretty good at it (I also play on ultra violence) however when it comes to TFC I always rage quit at the second map, however I might give it another try after watching this, great content as always btw
19:38 now for this intro I usually head off to the southeast corner below the exit area and funnel the enemies into there to help clear out the courthouse before running into the downstairs region of e4m3
E4M7 has one notable feature, that red skull key. My first time sitting down to actually finish Thy Flesh Consumed I got stuck on it. It's not hard to find, it's just been placed in such a way that it's also not a focal point and I think I ended up having to look on the Doom Wiki to find it. Point is, that was very memorable.

"A bit low on health, though"
Thy Flesh Consumed in a nutshell.
I agree with this comment. Little health, little ammo and more Cyberdemon encounters than the previous episodes.
Take a shot everytime he's low on health....and wishing there was more health

you lucky maniac, one shell left at the end of E4M1!
4 Barons in a level with barely any ammo and no health is a secret I'm glad I never found.
Yea, but you must activate the secret to get 100% secret/100% kills
I 100%K all levels in TFC except M1. Fuck M1.
I have trouble with that secret all the time as i run out of ammo and i suck with the fist.
Somehow I found a way to save ammo in M1 and still get all kills.
