If you're an old Glen Burnie man like me, you remember Bob Bell commercials. Evidently his advertising guys made it as a joke, but it feels exactly like one of his commercials.
I'm sorry but I'm just gonna say it - I fucking hate this latest version of Reelism. It just doesn't have that same "one more try" factor that the old Reelism did. In older versions of the mod, it felt like I had more of a chance to stand my ground and fight enemies in earlier waves and I could actually use some old-school Doom strategy like thinning out high-priority targets to keep myself safe until the next spin of the reels. When I died, it felt like I died because I wasn't playing well, not because the game had piled too much on my plate. Contrast that to this version where it feels like success pretty much rides entirely on being lucky with the reels and it always seems like there's at least one mode that's there simply to make things arbitrarily more difficult. It feels like I'm being punished for wanting to play the mod. A lot of the mechanics seem great in premise but once you actually have to start playing seriously with them for any extended period of time, the novelty wears off extremely quickly and it becomes frustrating and tiresome. Imo, Kinsie has spent too much time trying to be 'le epic funny man' and not enough time actually focusing on the balance in this latest version.
Just let us go Proper duel there, old chap, good show. But I belive you'd look better backed into the radiator of my car like a common moth, thank you very much.
I don't know why, but the modifier "Wizards! Holy Shit," made me laugh way more than it should have. Edit; I'm adding "Oh Fuck, Skeletons" to the list, too.
Mods like this that just feature the most batshit insane series of enemies, weapons, and locations is one of the prime reasons why I love Doom Modding so, so much.
Definitely my personal favorite weapons category in Reelism 2 is the D! weapons which were lifted from the fake screenshots of those D!Zone map packs from the 90's and the guy who sells those weapons at the marketplace is the player sprite from Freedoom!!! This mod is filled with so much love and dumb beauty it's glorious!!!!!!!!!!
Not sure why he was worried about a Hideous Destructor fan with a gun. By the time they've moved all their bullets from their seventeen different clips, you can be in the next state over.
Been playing alotta RE6 exclusively for Mercs, so this sounds like a nice alternative. Crazy it's been 7 years. Here's to 7 more: PRAISE INTERACTION & ALGORITHM. _THIS THE REEEEEL SHIT™_
I recently ended up with a copy of RE6. It absolutely boggles the mind that there was a fantastic gameplay loop that the campaign just flat out ignores. Mercs is good fun though. Punching shit down as Budget Jason Statham is a great time.
@@ClarkKentai Yeah, mechanically it's insanely detailed and nuanced fun. Mercenaries does a great job showcasing what a system it is; unlike the Stories, which--aside from Chris' campaign, derided at the time as Cawwa Duty-fied--seem to be astonishingly designed counter to the systems intent.
"If you don't like fun, play Hideous Destructor." Me: "DAFUQ YOU SAY TO ME!?" **struggles to run towards him while carrying an over-encumbered backpack and dies from exhaustion midway through*
Of all things that were keeping me on the edge of "I should probably play this sometime when I can bother to", the Gender Reveal IED (one of my most favorite memes of all time) was what finally did it for me.
Man, this looks fun. I think I tried to get Reelism 1 to work back in the day, but it wouldn't for some reason. I'll try to see if I can get this one to work instead. Plus, anything with a Big Bill Hell reference is amazing, and I love the fact you included the entire video in this.
Since it didn't make it into the video, behold the most important clip from Mr Icarus's time streaming this absolute banger of a mod; clips.twitch.tv/EntertainingDeliciousMushroomBudStar-XOEVZlVDgxwNYNPd
I reccomend you CountryCide. If you remember the mod Trench Foot, then you'll be just familiar with the theme and aesthetic. CountryCide is a prequel to Trench Foot, so it should be given a chance, it simply kicks ass.
0:30 To be fair, though, that producer completely deserved it, and Jeremy and the lads have gone off and done pretty amazing things under Amazon with the Grand Tour.
Damn, it might look chaotic when it comes to map designs.. but there's some complex high-tech stuff going on for sure. I can only imagine what he would be able to map, if he wanted to do a more standard map level design.
We've come a long way baby Thanks for all videos Icarus. I've discovered many awesome Doom mods thanks to you and look forward to seeing what you bring to us in future! (btw, when you gonna do Atom Rain?)
13:28 - I wasn't expecting a Syndicate reference in there. But then again, why shouldn't there be a Syndicate reference in there? I liked the Advance Wars tank for the tank icon and Ceres Station background for blowing up the level.
I really like your coverage of Doom Mods, great content! Something that it would be cool for you to cover is Doom Roguelike Arsenal. You can play as multiple classes, modify weapons into other weapons, apply monster pack modifications... a lot of customization to be had, and IMO it's the coolest way to play Doom. There are also additional playable classes to the base mod made by Cutman Mike (of MM8BDM fame) that can be added on to the mod for even more variety. It feels even more roguelike if you create a new mapset on the fly using something the Obsidian map generator.
Once I started playing it was hard to stop. Still some secrets I've missed though. I miss some of the Reelism 1 maps and mods but what we got here is some insane quality. Tons of fun and like Reelism 1 it'll stay installed for quick runs even after the credits roll. Has me inspired to look up how to mod it as I'm itching for more already.
for reelism 3, he should have a new cosmetic currency..you can go to a house market and choose a house to buy.. one could be a castle.. one could be a condo on a tropical island.. you can buy vehicles, planes etc to drive around there. you can buy all kinds of objects to decorate your house with, all kinds of cool toys and things in glass cabinet. go to the pet store, buy a pet, he should just go all out and you can buy loads of cool stuff for your character to hang out with between maps.
Nice to see a return to this. And to the hideous destructor joke near the end. But....but Icarus, YOU liked Hideous Destructor.....doesn't that mean you're in the dirt with us? :P I jest
Hey Icarus, have you heard of Countrycide? It's a prequel level to Trenchfoot the dev put out 'recently', has amazing atmosphere are is scary as hell just like the TF alpha.
I can't find the info right now so I may be completely wrong but I think I saw a message some time ago that stated that multiplayer could work but the mod wasn't tested for it
@@expendableround6186 In this case, this would be REAL hell for them xD Wait, but then again, some part of gamers shouldn´t even have access to it, right?
At 1:18.. I see a Sprite I have been looking for. Brings back the Nostalgia of my childhood. It is the white polar bear sprite from Pie in the Sky software GCS Xmas project directory and color palette. Does anyone know where I can find this Sprite?.. I am currently developing a project using the Retro p3d GCS, and I would like to utilize this Sprite.
Icarus would you review a pony\brony mod if it was asked? I been playing this one called Raridoom(Rarity vs Changelings) and been having lots of fun with it Rarity's basically a Pony Doomslayer killing Changelings.
Is the car you shoot a volvo? Cause... that would make the gun a reVolvo.
Icarus couldn't make a better dad joke himself
Clever one! :D

That dig at Hideous Destructor was completely fair and valid.
Holy shit, this fills the exact gaps in Reelism that had me end up getting bored with it. Installing when I'm off work tonight.
I got it yesterday and man! It´s really as good as Icarus said!

Hits the doomed eternal marauder with a car.
Bethesda, add that feature in
Just let us go

probably my favorite mod ever. i found some mods for the mod on twitter that added pacman ghosts and knock off toys that are trying to kill you.

The mod that got me into doom modding
I've been here since _Doom Mod Madness: Reelism._ Excellent videos all the way to today and beyond.
"Occasionally, it fires cars. What's not to love?" *HONK*
Perfect comedic timing, 15/10.
Wow. I think "Doom Mod Madness" just fulfilled its expectations and wrapped back AROUND the galaxy... O.o
🐲✨🐲✨🐲✨
"if the answer to the fun question is no, then Hideous Destructor is also available"
true brother facts.

As I pointed out when I saw the stream: This is Reelism with continuity!

This sounds like it'd go over great on Twitch or any stream, really.
Even better with integration!

This is basically Doom as a horde shooter with a built-in Chaos Mod... I'm in.
It made me laugh so much when he said doom eternal marauders showed up to wreck him and he instantly threw a car in one’s face lol
Reelism 2 itself has mods… and they get even nuttier. Pirates, bootleg toys, and much more.
13:28 - I wasn't expecting a Syndicate reference in there. But then again, why shouldn't there be a Syndicate reference in there?

This gave me a good 10 or so minutes of fun. I wanna see if I can get this to work in VR. Wouldn't that be extra sick!?!
Sounds nauseating. I'm not sure how the DOOM engine could handle that. I'd love to be proven wrong though.
@@trulyinfamous Oh you completely play doom 1 and 2 with mods and VR with gzdoomVR. However this mind does not work, it just does not load.
Doom guy didn’t think there was anything worse than hell, he was wrong.
Looks like way too much fun. I do have a question.
Does it work with Russian Overkill?
BC there can never be too much.
Finally Icarus reviewed one of the best mods in my opinion!
And i played only the early access mode
I've been watching you for 7 years. Nice!
Ah, yes! My favorite classic FPS from the 90's:
Minecraft.
This was one of my favorite mods all those years ago. Seeing it get a follow up is hype.
last version i played was 0.65 early excess, it's good to see it is already well beyond release with 1.2 patch. Good job developer thing
That video of the first reelism Is still one of my favorite
For some reason, every time that revolver shoots out a car, all I can hear in my head is *DAYTONA*
I played a ton of reelism 1, so I'm SO stoked on this
Once I started playing it was hard to stop. Still some secrets I've missed though.
I miss some of the Reelism 1 maps and mods but what we got here is some insane quality.
Tons of fun and like Reelism 1 it'll stay installed for quick runs even after the credits roll.
Has me inspired to look up how to mod it as I'm itching for more already.
Unpopular opinion: Reelism is what ProDoomer wanted to be, but executed properly
For real though, the sky pizza level is madness, especially on endurance mode
for reelism 3, he should have a new cosmetic currency..you can go to a house market and choose a house to buy.. one could be a castle.. one could be a condo on a tropical island.. you can buy vehicles, planes etc to drive around there. you can buy all kinds of objects to decorate your house with, all kinds of cool toys and things in glass cabinet. go to the pet store, buy a pet, he should just go all out and you can buy loads of cool stuff for your character to hang out with between maps.
Yeah, this is gonna be my lunch break. Thanks for the video, Mr. Icarus!
Happy 7 years of Madness, Mr Icarus!
12:48 Gonna use the dog launcher in dog hell
The owner of Zapple is now officially my favorite Archvile.
Are there still sheep? So cute, so deadly. Certainly a memorable moment from Icarus' Reelism playthrough from around 4 years ago.
The Quake Duck lmao 5:02
It even has the Contra spread gun hahaha I've said too much =x
I can't believe I've already been watching you now for more than 5 years...
that car gun...
I love the marathon reference with the vent core
*clears throat*
"The King has returned."
7:47 A marauder shows up
Icarus: I cast car
Y'know, throwing a car at a Doom Eternal Marauder. As you do.
Dang minecraft mods have changed so much since last time I saw them
Nice to see a return to this.
And to the hideous destructor joke near the end.
But....but Icarus, YOU liked Hideous Destructor.....doesn't that mean you're in the dirt with us? :P I jest
It's just a different, very fiddly, very cautious gameplay loop. (It's got everything I want!) Some don't like that stuff though.
YOU WOULDN'T EAT A CAR
Grats on the longevity bro.
Wait, wait, wait... Reelism was the very first episode of Doom Mod Madness?! :o
TH-cam recognizes this game as Mindcraft
Thanks for this. The mod had me laughing out loud so much my wife came in to see what was going on.
it looks so reelistic!
11:14 Master of Puppers
Mr. Icarus, do you cover any Doom 3 mods still? I have one that I've worked on and updated.
Wow, thats how long I've been following you man.
This looks DELIGHTFUL
Hey Icarus, have you heard of Countrycide?
It's a prequel level to Trenchfoot the dev put out 'recently', has amazing atmosphere are is scary as hell just like the TF alpha.
Okay, but hear me out. Reelism 2: Hideous Destructor edition
Eyyy, congrats on 7 years of DMM! 😄
The only disappointment is that the daggerfall skeletons dont make their iconic screech.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWW
IT'S BACK, BABY. ROLL THE SLOTS.
It looks like what i though Nighmare Reaper would be, but it ended up being pretty easy and very samy gameplay wise
i wonder if this is playable in multiplayer, If so I would like to find a group of doomers to play it with
I can't find the info right now so I may be completely wrong but I think I saw a message some time ago that stated that multiplayer could work but the mod wasn't tested for it
inspiring. is this the greatest doom mod?
Your channel has come full circle.
I wonder what would happen if you combined this mod with Brutal Doom, Russian Overkill and HDoom.
Yeah, could be interesting..... Hmm 🤔
Jackshit
Good luck combining Brutal Doom and HDoom haha
Skeletons everywhere
It wouldn't work, because mods aren't magic.
Isn´t that skeleton from Might and Magic VI?
Also this mod seems like LOT of fun!
