Another vote for Ashes 2063 & Afterglow for the next episode of this series. It's an _absolutely _*_magnificent_* mod and totally deserves to be a game in its own right eventually.
Nice Vid Mate but I wish GZDoom wouldn't default to texture filtering on, I think a lot of people new to it don't realize the graphics don't have to look blurry and smudged. If you don't know how to turn it off go to options, turn simple menu options to off then go to display options-->textures options and set the texture filter mode to none (trust me it looks a million times better). Also I personally like to go in in the OpenGl settings in Display options then postprocessing and set bloom to on and ambient occlusion to low (helps to stop levels looking flat light wise) and checking that dynamic lights are on in dynamic light options can help a lot too.
@@thereviewsbrothers3854 Glad to be helpful fella, GZDoom has a shed full of options and can be a rabbit hole on their own, but I think the ones I mentioned are the best to help it look better (I like setting sector lighting to Doom in Hardware Rendering as well) Trust me your eyes and viewers eyes will thank me. A few great mods to look out for are Bloom (a great mash up of Doom and Blood), Aliens Eradication (best Aliens Mod) and Beautiful Doom a calmer and less edgy boy answer to Brutal Doom (I like Brutal Doom but it can be a bit much at times) which feels closer to the original Doom. PSX Doom CE and Doom 64 CE are great ports of the Console versions (worth playing for the lighting, level design and Music giving it all a darker and moodier atmosphere). In fact Doom modding is an endless, glorious mess of genius and madness.
Thanks for this! I plan on getting into Doom mods with GZDoom myself and I can't help but scoff at the texture filtering in games like Doom, Quake, and even Half-Life due to how ugly it looks in comparison to the unfiltered textures.
I hate snobs with a passion. Let people play however they want. Just because you like sprites so sharp they can poke your eye out, does not mean everyone likes it too.
@@dannyd4339 I agree of course people can play how they want I was just pointing out the existence of the filter and that it can be changed (GZ Doom is a minefield of settings it doesn't explain well if you are new to it), you know extra choices. I wasn't demanding anything. Was trying to be helpful to a new creator not be snobby. Sorry if it came off that way. Reel your neck in a bit.
9:07 The full name for this WAD is called Action Doom 2: Urban Brawl, as it's the sequel to Scuba Steve's equally amazing TC Action Doom, which is heavily inspired by NES sidescrollers like Contra. Also if you play the zombie level in Urban Brawl, I did the music for that! :D
Highly reccomend the mods ashes 2063 and its sequel ashes afterglow. Another one would be hideous destructor which blends the line between tactical shooter and immersive sim. Also has the most grounded portrayal of firearms ive seen outside of hotdogs horseshoes and hand grenades.
Ashes is UNBELIEVABLE! Love it 😀 But so many others have reviewed & made 100% walk-through videos for it so it might be why they gave it a miss. But I do hope these guys have played it.
Ashes are some of those mods that make me think "why aren't the devs even monetizing this?" for them being that good! It's clear that they have had a lot of love, care and talent being put into them, so giving them for free seems outrageous for me! And Hideous Destructor is definitely *a* mod. I personally might beat the game one day with it, just so I can say I did it, lol. As for the portrayal of firearms, I agree. It's very on point. It reminded me of a game called "Receiver", with its gun management complexity.
@@Brunoki22 i'd give it a try with diablous ex has a good variety bag of monsters and encounters. would reccomend also trying it out in coop as it emphasizes aspects of MP game design i love which is teamwork.
I was just about to say this. At 7:07 the spider type thing was in a beta for Marathon typically called "Marathon Zero". At 7:45 you read a terminal which looks very similar to the terminal messages you read in Marathon. I am making videos about Marathon right now so I was surprised to see something I recognize.
Demonsteele is insanely fun with sythe 2. I first played it with the difficulty that caps health to 4. I found it to be an incredible experience, but because the mod is somewhat unbalanced, i changed some things. First is lowered the ammo amounts for all weapons, Second is that i always switch to the regular doom health and armor system. It's a swift, absolute bullet hell, whirlwind of blood, metal and death.
years ago i played demonsteele with scythe II just out of pure instinct! i still remember how fun it was. it was crazy seeing you having the same combination
This is my list after years of seeking the best mods off and on. Mostly including standalone experiences rather than gameplay adjustments meant to be mixed and matched. Just carefully crafted experiences. Sonic Robo Blast 2 (Better than all the other sonic games combined, you feel like sonic) CASTLEVANIA - Take the NES Castlevania games, make them 3d, and this exactly what you get Ashes 2063 Grezzo 2 (Not for the faint of heart, amazingly well done and fun. Not just shock value, crazy gameplay and surprising moments.) 10/10 The Adventures of Square (Amazing Experience Shouldn't be free) Splatterhouse (vibes, balanced and faithful to the original. Simple yet satisfying) Inquisitor 3 (Whole different experience) Memoirs of Magic (Full on RPG with towns and NPCs, stand alone game) Weapon pack - Try Hot and Bothered Ratchet Clank. There's a lot to this weapon mod, your guns lvl up and change with each lvl up. 40ish weapons. Your progress carries between levels, so longer mappacks are recommended, Auger Zenith works well. Golden Souls 2 - Super Mario World (Snes with a little N64) mixed with doom. Has a world hub, NPCs, shops, and so much more. Shinobi Doom - Has wall running and all sorts of mechanics, third person fighter mod, can parkour making maps have a whole new depth. Can use on any map. These are the ones id recommend. You could spend thousands of hours on those. So much content in each of them and they all have a very immersive atmosphere. Don't sleep on these. These are all easy to get up and running.
"Barista" is actually the name of a serie of mods/games by the same author. Nice to see mods from the late BrDoom forums there (Brutal Doom and Pirate Doom). If you allow me, I'd like to sugest a few others: Neodoom, The Cathedral, Armagedoom, Neodoom, Ozonia, Cursed Maze and Tenebrae.
Ashes is not just my favorite doom wad, but one of my favorite shooters ive ever played. Insane how great that game feels, how perfect the art direction is, and how many memorable setpieces it manages to weave together that feels like an epic adventure. Reminded me of playing half life 2 for the first time.
Everyone is talking about Ashes 2073, which is ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL, but no one is talking about Hedon which is another PHENOMENAL total conversion mod. Different enemies different guns, just a completely different game made with the same level of care in detail that Ashes was!
Nice selection. I watch comments too to try to add suggestions that are not already in comments. Eviternity : Great levels with so much visual variety. Elementalism : also great visually Bloom : A crossover between blood and Doom so well made. The mixed enemies can be reused in any other map. But this mod also features classic levels from Doom 1 and 2 mixed with classic levels from Blood. The way this is made is trully impressive. Blade of agony. It's a crossover between Wolfenstein and Medal of Honor. This could be easily sold as a true standalone game by itself. There are a lot of levels with a true story, NPCs, different environements, that are a tribute to Wolfenstein and Medal of Honor. The story is a Wolfenstein revisit since you find similar characters/bosses and nazi creations, but you have an integration with WWII events like in Medal of Honor with levels were you fight the Wehrmacht in cities, with tanks and so on. As a comment, I like your presentation of Myhouse.wad. It's totally that. Play it, see it by yourself, can't tell you more. Or you can say, "just make a youtube research but don't look at the videos. The fact there are a lot of videos about it means there is something about it."
Same. Did you also like the original? It had an amazing vibe. The mod captures it for sure. I could do without the ghosts though, my only complaint. Now if you want an insane atmospheric horror that has a movie soundtrack and feels like a movie in a nightmare/fever dream, try Grezzo 2. Id go into it blind, make sure to add the English patch it comes with. I've never had more fun in any doom mod. I thought it was just an overly edgy mod, but I was wrong.
Even though it won't be free to download when it finally releases, Selaco is still a stunning Doom mod. I've played the demo on Steam for several hours already, and I still find it hard to believe that it has anything to do with the OG Doom. So looking forward to it...
My house has one thing you could've pointed out. The fact that it should be impossible to have a second floor above a first, normally. The original Doom games, despite how they look are actually 2d not 3d, which means collision with monsters on upper floors. Just to highlight how truly intuitive "my house.wad" is.
Can confirm that it's your PC's lower specs that caused issues for Total Chaos, as I was able to run it smooth as butter with zero performance issues. However I'm not quite sure what specs it needs to reach that. a 2080ti/3070 (I had the 2080ti, but a 3070 would be identical performance wise.) with an i5 9700k was what was in my old PC when I played it flawlessly, though I'm sure given it's just a doom mod that something much lower than that can also run it just fine.
damn I remember playing urban brawl like 10 years ago, or at least I thought it was called action doom but this looks just like it. Might play it again.
Technically, it's Action Doom 2: Urban Brawl, as it's a sequel to the equally fantastic mod Action Doom, which is heavily inspired by Contra and other super-tough NES sidescrollers.
thanks for all the suggestions.. i just want to say i tried multiple times to run total chaos and it either crashed before loading or had really bad pixelation everywhere.. very similar to what u wld see if ur tv was snowing if u had a bad connection... it was dissapointing cause it was super interesting and creepy as hell from what i played
Yeah it’s a tricky one to get running well. I did have to go in the options and put a lot of settings to the minimum. Might be worth trying if you haven’t as there is a setting to change the fuzzy snow thing I believe
@thereviewsbrothers3854 oh OK I will def try that.. thx so much for the tips and for responding man 😁 btw u had tenchfoot in there.. I wld highly recommend countrycide.. it was a prequel to that mod.. not necessary but it gvs more backround to ur main character and a dif setting before he was recruited to the war... and is dripping with atmosphere just like trnchfoot.. 👍
a couple more I could recommend Golden Souls Castlevania: Simon's Destiny REKKR God Complex DOOMRPG Rebalance the first 3 are total conversions, I'm surprised you didn't put REKKR in this video, and the last 2 are huge gameplay overhauls
Thanks for these. I’ve never heard of REKKR. Will definitely give it a look. I plan on doing a video on mods based on other games. So will include the Simon’s Destiny one there, along with sonic/Mario etc. Appreciate the suggestions. I never get bored of doom!
@@thereviewsbrothers3854 wrath of cronos or the updated version is amazing to :D its a total conversion of old diablo. complex doom is another great one reelism really fun because u can spend 300 hours on it. but agree golden souls should be top 5 on any list. all 3 games can waste your time for weeks on end.
3:28 _[...] it runs amazingly smoothly [...]_. Yes, since 15 years or more there are ways to make doom run smooth. Thanks for clearing doubts *The Review Siblings™*.😶
I want to make my own Doom mod I've even had an idea for a new mod for quite some time actually maybe I should get around to making it and stop procrastinating. Now I finally do have some experience with modding where I didn't previously because I did get very deep into the koikatsu party modding community.
@@thereviewsbrothers3854 incorrect me if I'm wrong but I think somebody already made a Jurassic Park mod I could be wrong but I think I've seen somebody make Jurassic Park already I don't know if I would personally make a dress Park mod but if I got super into do mods maybe I could see myself doing more than one. The idea I had in the back of my mind was a sort of anime themed Doom mod but who knows maybe if I can get into it and it's not as hard as I thought the first time I attempted it then maybe I could try making some more and have this as a kind of side hobby.
I too as well!! I’m a brand new subscriber and love gaming channels like these gotta try the urban brawl mod!!! Getting Comix Zone vibes.... now I need to go play it again shooot.... haven’t played that in nearly 30 years ago on Sega Channel yeah I’m old lol (turning 39 in October of 2023) lol
You must be the first person to use "amazingly smoothly" and GZDoom in one sentence. GZDoom is notorious for occasional lags (when playing with mods) and handling lags horribly on top of it by skipping a lot of frames. Pirate Doom in particular can't possibly run smoothly in one or two levels, because the visual effects in them are too much for GZDoom to handle.
Realistically given he’s playing brutal doom you aren’t gonna be convincing him to use a different source port anytime soon since gzdoom is the only source port that works with these big conversions
@@STREAMERZEE The first link is a RAR file, which has all the PK3/ipk3 files in it. You can use those the same way you would a wad, just open the Decadence.ipk3 file with GZDoom and you should be good to go. Thats how I run it.
Idk if anyone can help me but I’m trying to find a mod I played a while bad but my memory has failed me and I cannot find it on my PC or on mod sites and searching online has been hard to find Basically it’s a character type mod with multiple characters you can play as and the main one I wanted to play as is Return to Castle Wolfenstine BJ I can’t remember the other characters besides BJ but I think there was Caleb from Blood Anyways any help is appreciated as I think this thing has been lost to the void or something hehe
10 essntial doom mods 1) None of them 2) None of them 3) None of them 4) None of them 5) None of them 6) None of them 7) None of them 8) None of them 9) None of them 10) None of them You don't need mods to enjoy Doom. They are not essential. They may be good. But absolutely none of them are essential.

@@thereviewsbrothers3854 it's absolutely great. A bit outdated but still good.
Like your videos, keep em comming
Ashes or nothing!
That’s in part 2. Make sure to check that out 😘
Star Wars mod is brilliant!
💀21:29 you're main attack is knife and you're other attack is a knife lol 💀
You must be the first person to use "amazingly smoothly" and GZDoom in one sentence. GZDoom is notorious for occasional lags (when playing with mods) and handling lags horribly on top of it by skipping a lot of frames. Pirate Doom in particular can't possibly run smoothly in one or two levels, because the visual effects in them are too much for GZDoom to handle.
Realistically given he’s playing brutal doom you aren’t gonna be convincing him to use a different source port anytime soon since gzdoom is the only source port that works with these big conversions
Legend of Doom 🎉
Moon Man Doom!

Not a single mention to Ashes Dead Man Walking? Or afterglow? Really? Alright man.
where can i get the wad file for decadance because i cant find the wad file for it
Hopefully this link works, here is where I got it: forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?t=63782
@@thereviewsbrothers3854 when i went to that link it didnt have a wad file
where do i find the file?
@@STREAMERZEE The first link is a RAR file, which has all the PK3/ipk3 files in it. You can use those the same way you would a wad, just open the Decadence.ipk3 file with GZDoom and you should be good to go. Thats how I run it.
@@thereviewsbrothers3854 i use doom explorer tho
Trench Foot is my favorite of al time.
How could you not include Castlevania Simon's Destiny?
That’s in my ‘Doom mods based on other games’ video 😎
Idk if anyone can help me but I’m trying to find a mod I played a while bad but my memory has failed me and I cannot find it on my PC or on mod sites and searching online has been hard to find
Basically it’s a character type mod with multiple characters you can play as and the main one I wanted to play as is Return to Castle Wolfenstine BJ
I can’t remember the other characters besides BJ but I think there was Caleb from Blood
Anyways any help is appreciated as I think this thing has been lost to the void or something hehe
Maybe include Total Conversion in the title next time.
Nothing beats the Ashes. Best mod I've ever seen.
Yeah. Could easily be released as its own game and still do well.
Which bd version did u use? Thx
I use this one: www.moddb.com/mods/brutal-doom but I think there might be a newer version. Haven't had a proper look just yet though.
Damn you forgot Moon Man
Please, no texture filtering unless you're literally a Nintendo64 :)
What's essential is to turn off billinear filtering
May i recommend " Samsara "
I humbly suggest: Voxel Doom II. You'll see why...
No Sonic Robo Blast 2?
This is not a top 10 without probably the best mod Ever. Ashes
Well you better subscribe coz you’ll never guess what is in tomorrows video… 😉
Lol I played action Doom with brutal Doom and it broke it so badly and I had no idea, I just thought it was a really shitty mod
You forgot the most important. H DOOM.
No Golden Souls?
try out Doom: The Golden Souls series.
I recommend Doom Infinite
You forgot grezzo due
joke a side this is a serious video?
Where is UnrealRPG :9
I haven’t heard of that. I’ll have to get a part 2 out soon. Had loads of great suggestions.
You forgot the moon man mod
No, Ashes 2063 or High Noon Drifter.....come on
1:18 how about no
In the first minute, its so full of stutter. Just dont use gzdoom really. It's sadly become such a stuttery mess
No, cry about it
DOOM: LITHIUM is best mod.
No Moon Man or H mod?
What kind of essentials list is this?!?!?!
What is Bruel doom?
It's like doom, but bruel m8
This is such a noobie (in terms of community content) doomer video that its almost adorable. Stop by doomworld for a while!
Everyone’s gotta start somewhere.
9:07 oh yeah because we should definitely promote the DOOM mod that has the protagonist call a clearly gay guy an f-slur...
Indeed we should.
@@thosemerc3113 I was being sarcastic you doofus
That's been changed by now.
@@Viehzerrer the 2008 version is still available on idgames though
here is my recommendation: HDoom
👍👍
you forgot one of the funniest ones of them all the moon man mod.
Grezzo 2 you mean.
Yeah...you need to brush up on your definition of "essential". This trash...is not "essential", like, at all.
Then again, what am i expecting from someone who plays with bilinear filtering on...
Don’t forget to smash that subscribe button for more great content.
Promo-SM 😎
That third one looks like absolute garbage.
i AM THE 100TH UPVOTE!
10 essntial doom mods
1) None of them
2) None of them
3) None of them
4) None of them
5) None of them
6) None of them
7) None of them
8) None of them
9) None of them
10) None of them
You don't need mods to enjoy Doom. They are not essential. They may be good. But absolutely none of them are essential.
I would never go back to vanilla doom lol. You can't go from grezzo 2 or Ashes and then back to vanilla. I get your point though.
Waste of Time
no Columbine mod, dislike
I want to make my own Doom mod I've even had an idea for a new mod for quite some time actually maybe I should get around to making it and stop procrastinating.
Now I finally do have some experience with modding where I didn't previously because I did get very deep into the koikatsu party modding community.
