Alongside Brutal Doom 64, modder ‘Sergeant_Mark_IV’ is working on a new version of the original Brutal Doom mod. Brutal Doom v20c will feature several new maps, new areas, as well as new light effects for existing maps. In order to showcase some of these improvements, Sergeant_Mark_IV released a new batch of screenshots that can be viewed below.
Sergeant_Mark_IV also plans to add back the Skulltag weapons as an optional mode called “Extra Mode”, a mode that can be selected in the skills menu much like the realism mode. Sergeant_Mark_IV plans to expand this mode even further in Brutal Doom v21.
A release date and a new trailer for Brutal Doom v20c will be revealed by the end of this month, so stay tuned for more!

There’s no excuse for not owning this game (the original Doom/Doom 2) in some form, it really is the game that keeps on giving. 23 years later and the community is still active as ever.
You dont have to own it, there is freedoom and endless megawad. Personally i cant wait for the 80 map DUMP 3 to be finished.
Why would you not own a legit copy of Doom by now anyways though, makes no sense.
Really? With the flat graphics? I won’t doubt the performance but it should perform well. I got about as much as I could out of Doom and Wolf 3D when they were in their prime. In my opinion MOST games don’t age well. Mostly due to the fact that many games copy cat other games but bring massive improvements.
Who doesn’t love normal Doom, but Brutal Doom feels fresh without being being to contradistinctive. Plus I’m not gonna lie, those finishers get me rock har- uh I mean…. *Cough*
Meh, I never even bother using the finishers, the thing that really makes BD satisfying to me is all the shot effects, gore and sounds. I find it far more satisfying to just shoot enemies, IMO the shooting in BD feels much better than in the reboot.
Oh yeah man, the gore effects are so damn satisfying, chucking a grenade in to a room and watching as the gibs fall off the ceiling is exillerating. Then to add insult to injury, you can give their shredded corpses the finger. Lol
Brutal Doom is insanely fun to play at LAN, albiet a bit tricky to get setup.
One of the reasons i ditched the reboot.
BD weapons are kinda mundane for me, i prefer project brutality or Doom 4 Doom.
