I remember way back in 2004 seeing the original box art of this game and being creeped out by the imposing hell knight and the red colored background. It was very mesmerizing to see, yet it made me felt uncomfortable
My dad was a huge fan of the DOOM series ever since the Nintendo 64 iteration. It was all about a very fast pacing, shooting demons and getting lost in the not so clear levels. However, he told me that the third game was awesome and that it scared the crap out of him.
I never liked horror games, I get scared easily so in reality, I told him that I’ll play it, eventually. More than 18 years went by and I finally was able to get myself around my fear. So I bought the BFG edition which includes the base game, the expansion: The Resurrection of Evil and a brand new campaign called The Lost Mission.
DOOM 3 doesn't mess around, it’s one of those games that you can’t stop playing after the intro sequence is over.
It was a huge departure from the fast paced action that the fans at the time were expecting. That is its biggest weakness: not being a proper DOOM 2/ DOOM 64 sequel, other than that, if you give this game a chance you’ll find a technical marvel (due to the engine and the lightning system they created) and a well paced first person shooter that utilizes horror elements alongside a plethora of weapons to defend yourself against them.
