Caleb is like an adult Disney villain and it makes him loveable. When it comes to weapons and combat, sometimes I see mapmakers struggle with understanding the weapons, often just giving you a bunch of shot shells and Tommy gun ammo. While these weapons have their use, the game’s difficulty DEMANDS you understand the different weapons and how and when to use said weapons.
I got Blood and MDK for my 12th birthday and that's a day I'll never forget. Blood isn't just the best build engine game, it's one of the best shooters of the 90's. Might also wanna add Darkwatch to the list of games with similar settings as Blood.
I came to Blood immediately after getting my pc. I came from playing Doom quake and wolfenstein so I was absolutely psyched when the train level came around. The gimmicks in Blood really make it stand out, the train, the carnival, the haunted house. It’s so awesome
this is the time in horror history where the graphics start to get better!!! im watching/playing all of them from all the years and this by far had the best background graphics
I only discovered this Game after watching the Civvie11-Videos, downloaded it on Steam... and *immediately* played through the entire Game+Port Mortem twice. Its just sooo addicting. And everything about the Cultists just cracks me up, from their Design, to their faux-Latin chanting to their over-the-top screaming. Setting them on fire quickly became my favourite thing to do in _Blood._
I had a tought time at first getting into Blood, I died far too often. What i didn't realize is that I grew up playing FPS games on a lower difficulty, so when i got to Blood and tried to play on Hard (general Build Engine recommended setting) I just wasnt acclamated to it. After a few trial runs, I was able to dodge bullets and dish damage with ease, making all other Build games feel different and play even better when I revisited them on future playthroughs. I think the Build Engine is a near perfect 2.5D Engine for FPS games, especially with the additions added in Blood and Shadow Warrior, so im glad Ion Fury is continuing that trend and hope we see more to come!
its a close one i would say. in my youth i liked duke nukem the most, also shadow warrior is very good. blood is also outstanding: i simply can not pick a favorite, they are all so freakin good.
I absolutely recommend you try the NBlood source port. It adds features not present in GDX and modding it is actually easier due to the existence of a launcher. Also check out Blood: Marrow and Blood: Eviction (both have trailers available on TH-cam;))
The initial project wasn't known as Gauntlet, it was inspired by Gauntlet, a top down '80s arcade game. Get Medieval is an unabashed Gauntlet clone. So was John Carmack's Catacomb, which via Catacomb 3D bequeathed us the basic structure of the FPS as we know it today.
I don't think you've said it enough, the soundtrack is really really perfect. I do listen to it from time to time, to bring back some memories most of all. There are tracks that shine like Dark Carnival, or the main theme Infuscomus, but the rest of them also fit great with the environment. th-cam.com/video/svzMK33PMUk/w-d-xo.html
While i strive for more Blood stuff, the indie games inspired by it just doesn't do it for me. To the point i refunded most of them. Nothing will top the OG. Others just lack the stuff that makes Blood work
Duke3d, shadow warrior, hexen series & heretic are all great games in their own right. Its hard to call blood the best. Fun fact: 3d realms sold the rights to blood over to monolith because they were also developing shadow warrior at the time. Monolith just polished it then developed that dumpster fire.
Yeah. idk, Blood is better than Doom in basically every aspect, graphics, mecanics, gameplay, level design, immersiveness, guns, enemies but I can't say I like more Blood than Doom. I would say Blood is my 2nd favorite 90s boomer shooter. Blood is beautiful but Doom is in my heart.
Not all of it is Extra Crispy. This is just me generally talking about the game, regardless of it's version. Extra Crispy is just there to show that the game has a modding scene.
Haven't play this game since I was like 11 or something most I remember is needed to hit T then type hongkong forget what it does but my ass needed it many other cheats but forgot them think I felt the other ones were really cheating but cheating is cheating.
no hate but "mixed things" about blood 2? trust me PLEASE dont go anywhere near that game, it is unfinished, rushed, and i have heard that most people cant beat the game without cheating bc of how broken the game is, please just stay away and live a good life without having to touch that game ong
The best build engine game? No. Is it good? Well, yeah. There's nothing wrong with having a difficult game, dude. It's just that the zombies are a bit of a nuisance to fight, and feel like a waste of ammo if you use anything other than the pitchfork.

The theme and setting was unique for its time. It's a shame it never went any further than Blood 2.
@@SackoYT 3drealms actually created blood and sold it to monolith.

I highly highly recommend the game cultic a real love letter to Blood
@@graytoby1cultic feels more like resident evil 4 rather than blood to me
I want Jo-Jo, Jo-Jo, Jo-Jo, Jo-Jo!
9:47 You got some balls using hairspray against hell hounds
Ps:Your right blood is the best game in the build engine
Can't forget playing Blood with The Prodigy DIESEL POWER AS SOUNDTRACK -
This game is the GOAT of all the build engine games for sure.
I always go back and forth on build engine games but Blood is the best one
My personal ranking
1. Blood
2. Ion Fury
3. Shadow Warrior
4. Duke 3D
Based Ion Fury enjoyer. That game truly lives up to the trinity
@@smugplush no, Ion Fury has more in common with Shadow Warrior rather than Duke
Would switch Shadow Warrior with Ion Fury, but that’s just my personal taste.
I would pick Shadow Warrior over Ion Fury. Just because of unique setting of SW and better one liners from the protagonist.
TH-camr GmanLives is the reason why i came across and played this game. It's fucking awesome
I just did a review of this last week, my favorite build engine game. Video needs more pitchfork, good stuff

The Postmortem came with the Plasma Pak, which was developed by Monolith. Cryptic Passage was developed by Sunstorm Interactive.
Blood for life!!! Best FPS ever made! FIGHT ME 😆
Great video!
Marinax Infirmux!
BLOOM is an amazing DOOM/Blood crossover mod. Truly an amazing work of art for those interested.
great video
It was my favorite game!!!🩸🩸🩸
Blood was my favorite PC game for years. It is the 4th today. But it still deserves love!
Hey, what mod is that at 2:10?
The Extra Crispy Mod. Should be in the description.
Blood is amazing. Try the Death wish mod. It is as good as the original blood if not superior. And it has 4 chapters with a 5th in the making
Oh my god I totally forgot about this classic. Wow. Memories.
Blood and Hexen is a 2,5D era 💎s 👌
typing this before i watch, i REALLY really hope youve played deathwish bro
I've played some of it. Need to finish it though.
@@SackoYT DO SO POSTHASTE, you'd do yourself a favor

Never forget, tommy gun stuns hitscanners!
Horror 3D was announced in 1994 but never released under that title.
For real👍 i got the game in Asus ROG Ally
I wish in the future the game update new level new weapons and enemies
Will they bring it onto the PS4? Games like Quake have been brought on the PS4?

@hurykles99 The only one that's come close for me is Cultic. But that's only in the aesthetics.
Duke3d, shadow warrior, hexen series & heretic are all great games in their own right. Its hard to call blood the best. Fun fact: 3d realms sold the rights to blood over to monolith because they were also developing shadow warrior at the time. Monolith just polished it then developed that dumpster fire.
SW has the cleaner code. Also, I can't get over Bloods implementation of room-over-room. Doesn't even calculate sight lines.
nice man!!!
Blood is better than Doom imo
Yes, I can't decide which is better, Blood or Duke Nukem 3d, both excellent games I played to death in the 90s
@@mundoglory7071 Ngl Duke is kinda weak compared to both Blood and Shadow Warrior in my opinion xD. He's def iconic tho
@@doctahjonez try bloom a mod for doom
It is
Yeah. idk, Blood is better than Doom in basically every aspect, graphics, mecanics, gameplay, level design, immersiveness, guns, enemies but I can't say I like more Blood than Doom. I would say Blood is my 2nd favorite 90s boomer shooter. Blood is beautiful but Doom is in my heart.
Admittedly a common mistake, but it's Stephan Weyte.
I struggle with certain pronunciations. Appreciate the corrections from your other comments.
Are you playing fresh supply or any other sourceport?
Both Fresh Supply and BloodGDX
Not exactly genuine to use the Extra Crispy mod for your clips. Would you use Brutal Doom to represent Doom '93?
Not all of it is Extra Crispy. This is just me generally talking about the game, regardless of it's version. Extra Crispy is just there to show that the game has a modding scene.
@@SackoYT I'm fine with that for the actual mod section, but otherwise it might confuse.
I named my son Caleb
Blood was actually not all that moddable until recently outside of custom levels
its def unique
I think Ion Fury is the best build engine game ever made; but it has the benefit of being made 20 years later.
Who plays Blood in 2024 like me 🤡
Blood is not as known as Duke Nukem 3D.
Haven't play this game since I was like 11 or something most I remember is needed to hit T then type hongkong forget what it does but my ass needed it many other cheats but forgot them think I felt the other ones were really cheating but cheating is cheating.
The setting was deliberately anachronistic and up to speculation, although Blood 2 implied around 1928.
no hate but "mixed things" about blood 2? trust me PLEASE dont go anywhere near that game, it is unfinished, rushed, and i have heard that most people cant beat the game without cheating bc of how broken the game is, please just stay away and live a good life without having to touch that game ong
The voice acting is really goofy ngl
@@CopperGucci A lot of 90s games had that in common.
@@SackoYT True voice acting in video games were very new at the time

For Build engine games do you think shadow warrior ion fury or duke nukem is the best
Calling a game "the best BUILD engine game" is like calling a beautiful piece of Van Gogh art made with crayon "the best piece of art using crayon."
Original Blood levels sucked.
