OP you're mostly describing profound autism. Joe's reply is fucking based though.
I'm gonna have to go with the chaingun. It's a shame because it's really fun to use. But it has a very big shortcoming.
Compared to the shotgun, let alone the SSG or the more powerful stuff, the chaingun has an absolutely pitiful max ammo capacity, in terms of how much damage you can inflict with it -- see Fun Numbers below. It doesn't help that enemies drop very small amounts of ammo too, compared to the shotgun guy and his 4 shells. If the max bullet capacity was 400 (800 with backpack) it would've been a lot more useful. Basically, you can't do a lot with the chaingun before you're forced to go find more ammo. In my opinion this is the biggest flaw of Doom's weapon arsenal.
What's amazing is that Hacx makes this even worse -- its Uzi can be used maybe twice per level.
Fun Numbers:
Shotgun -- 50 shells × 7 pellets each × ~10 damage each on average = ~3500 damage
Super shotgun -- 50 shells ÷ 2 shells per shot × 20 pellets each × ~10 = ~5000 damage
Chaingun/Pistol -- 200 bullets × ~10 = ~2000 damage
Rocket launcher -- 50 rockets × (~218) = ~10900 damage (~4500 w/o blast damage)
Plasma gun -- 300 cells × ~22,5 = ~6750 damage
BFG -- 7 shots [300 cells] × (~450 + 40 × ~68) = 3150 [balls] + 19040 [tracers] = ~22190 damage
@NoisyVelvet you're really not missing out on anything. All Heretic will do for you is change your definition of the word "monotonous".
@Cuppykeks you always struck me as the kind of guy to use Cairo Desktop tbh.
A textbook example of a mapset with filler maps is Requiem, which has like five or six short shitty maps made to pad out the maplist. You can tell they're filler because they're mostly in that tricky MAP10-25 half of the megawad that's the hardest to get done. All of those filler maps were made by the same guy, I can't remember who now.
@Cuppykeks said in How would you imagine a psychopath playing Doom?:
I Definitely Have Never Played Doom Like This Btw
The most Indian comment I've ever seen, good job. You even nailed the random capitalisation of compound words they do.
