I think your description is pretty spot-on. Doom was released in 1993. Quake 3 Arena was released in 1999. Doom had all the ingredients needed to make Q3 but Quake 3 Arena still holds up as an arcade-style shooter, whereas Doom feels like a relic of the past. I think that period of time in the 90s was really a remarkable time in the evolution of digital entertainment.
- tjr225 6y agoI think Doom still holds up really well. I played it for the first time around five or six years ago and had a great time.
- jugg1es 6y agoI'm not saying it's not fun, I'm saying my 7 year old kid would look at Doom and say "nope" but he would look at q3a and give it a chance.
- tjr225 6y agoSure but your 7 year old kid would say the same thing about The Godfather vs the Matrix. That doesn’t mean The Godfather hasn’t aged well.
- jugg1es 6y agoI dunno man - for a 'high tech' sci-fi movie, there aren't anything resembling modern phones in the Matrix. My 7yo has a hard time understanding pay phones. At least the Godfather is set in the past haha.
