Even Deadpool (2013) can't be purchased digitally anymore. PC players have been dealing with this for a long time.

@@iamnid Being $5 isn't an excuse for failing to properly port a 25+ year old game to modern hardware. Especially when amateur homebrew ports far outshine the official version. It's especially disappointing because not only is everything but the resolution worse than the original version, the Steam version of Doom 3 BFG Edition includes Doom 1 & 2 and costs $20, the same total cost of buying all three on console, but lacks ANY of the issues the new ports have. Looks great, sounds great, plays great, and no Bethesda login. If they could get it right years ago, why have they managed to screw it up now? And why do they expect people to pay again for an inferior version? It's just sad, really.

It runs reasonably well most of the time (Doom 3 that is), but you can round a corner into a more geometrically complex area, or look down a long hallway into a room and the framerate really drops (from 60 to 30 or lower depending on where you're looking, which can be pretty jarring) - it's never unplayable mind you, but it's somewhat unstable. At least they patched Doom 1 and 2 and gave them 60 FPS support etc. - the Doom 3 port could use a bit more optimization though.

The only thing that's better is the speed of the music but the variable sound effect pitch problem is still very much present and the music instruments sound terrible. The OG Xbox version that comes with the Doom 3 expansion is the best console port of vanilla Doom 1 and 2 even though it still suffers quite a bit with the sound effects variable pitch and the music is still slow but the instruments are much better. There's yet to be a perfect port of vanilla Doom to a console. It's really sad that all of the unofficial ports on PC have been doing it right for well over a decade.

I disagree that it runs "almost flawlessly", having played the game for much longer on the switch. It has some really heavy drops to the 40s in many big open areas, and it's pretty annoying in those parts. A sudden sluggishness has cost me many deaths. I've seen single digit frames in an a specific direction in a specific location, which just seems like oversight because that should be impossible for a game this old with hardware this recent. I've played for 5 hours and 33 minutes on my switch till now.

Changing sample rates also changes the pitch of the music. That'd mean that they played back the midi at the right speed but at a higher pitch and corrected this by increasing sample rate. An odd problem because why would a midi file play back at a higher pitch? You'd have to load it into a DAW! SFX are really muffled too and the login stuff (and problem with waking from sleep) kinda sour my first playthrough of Doom :( . It's neat to finally see Doom 2016s roots though!

Sure I'm a PC player, but I would love to get some more options in games, especially for the Switch, being able to choose resolution, framerate, and certain quality settigns. I mean 540p30fps for Doom3 isn't bad if it would allow for greatly improved battery life. In docked mode I would love to lower it to 900p or 720p for better performance, especially since the game uses very clean textured geometry. The aliasing and shimmering is kept to a minimum even at lower resolutions.

I'm not too concerned with the performance of Doom 3 on Switch. It looks to hold 60fps and playable framerates often enough for me to consider it a solid conversion, and even taking into account the performance drops, Panic Button has very consistently supported their Switch ports long-term with various iterative patches that smooth out various performance hiccups. Rocket League used to run at lower resolutions and exhibit framerate drops, but it runs a locked 60fps now and averages higher framerates. DOOM 2016 and especially Wolfenstein: The New Order had their dynamic resolution and performance adjusted significantly over time and both games are much more solid on the platform now. Panic Button is more than likely going to give Doom 3 the same treatment and patch up performance more and more as time goes on. If you're skeptical of the Switch version currently (I'm not, personally), I'd say give it a few months and see how things change when Panic Button starts releasing patches.
@yellowblanka6058

It runs reasonably well most of the time (Doom 3 that is), but you can round a corner into a more geometrically complex area, or look down a long hallway into a room and the framerate really drops (from 60 to 30 or lower depending on where you're looking, which can be pretty jarring) - it's never unplayable mind you, but it's somewhat unstable. At least they patched Doom 1 and 2 and gave them 60 FPS support etc. - the Doom 3 port could use a bit more optimization though.
Man, such complete 180 in port quality. Panic Button should've gotten the chance to make all of them. Dudes are technical wizards.

The only thing that's better is the speed of the music but the variable sound effect pitch problem is still very much present and the music instruments sound terrible. The OG Xbox version that comes with the Doom 3 expansion is the best console port of vanilla Doom 1 and 2 even though it still suffers quite a bit with the sound effects variable pitch and the music is still slow but the instruments are much better. There's yet to be a perfect port of vanilla Doom to a console. It's really sad that all of the unofficial ports on PC have been doing it right for well over a decade.

I disagree that it runs "almost flawlessly", having played the game for much longer on the switch. It has some really heavy drops to the 40s in many big open areas, and it's pretty annoying in those parts. A sudden sluggishness has cost me many deaths. I've seen single digit frames in an a specific direction in a specific location, which just seems like oversight because that should be impossible for a game this old with hardware this recent. I've played for 5 hours and 33 minutes on my switch till now.

The original Doom is also playable on the Samsung Smart Fridge, an ATM machine, a Leap Frog children’s toy computer, a calculator, and even a printer. The last one runs it poorly though. It would be crazy to see a Digital Foundry breakdown of the unofficial Internet of Things Doom ports.
Changing sample rates also changes the pitch of the music. That'd mean that they played back the midi at the right speed but at a higher pitch and corrected this by increasing sample rate. An odd problem because why would a midi file play back at a higher pitch? You'd have to load it into a DAW! SFX are really muffled too and the login stuff (and problem with waking from sleep) kinda sour my first playthrough of Doom :( . It's neat to finally see Doom 2016s roots though!

I’d love a DOOM 3 DF Retro - what I’d also love is a DF Retro (maybe the same one) that also discusses Deus Ex Invisible War. I says this because it released the year before and actually had more rudimentary forms of many of the new techniques that Doom 3 made so big. It’s a divisive game too, but I think an analysis of it could go well with a broader analysis of all the new GeForce 3-enabled bells and whistles.

Sure I'm a PC player, but I would love to get some more options in games, especially for the Switch, being able to choose resolution, framerate, and certain quality settigns. I mean 540p30fps for Doom3 isn't bad if it would allow for greatly improved battery life. In docked mode I would love to lower it to 900p or 720p for better performance, especially since the game uses very clean textured geometry. The aliasing and shimmering is kept to a minimum even at lower resolutions.

I'm not too concerned with the performance of Doom 3 on Switch. It looks to hold 60fps and playable framerates often enough for me to consider it a solid conversion, and even taking into account the performance drops, Panic Button has very consistently supported their Switch ports long-term with various iterative patches that smooth out various performance hiccups. Rocket League used to run at lower resolutions and exhibit framerate drops, but it runs a locked 60fps now and averages higher framerates. DOOM 2016 and especially Wolfenstein: The New Order had their dynamic resolution and performance adjusted significantly over time and both games are much more solid on the platform now. Panic Button is more than likely going to give Doom 3 the same treatment and patch up performance more and more as time goes on. If you're skeptical of the Switch version currently (I'm not, personally), I'd say give it a few months and see how things change when Panic Button starts releasing patches.

I dont get why you would pay for an official subpar doom port in 2019 when there's so many superior source ports

Because source ports don’t exist for consoles. Did you think for even half a second before typing this?
I found couple of graphical glitches in Doom II. In "Barrels of Fun", there is a place, where staircase glitches into the floor. The same problem appears in "The Abbyss" (that level with narrow walkways), where again, floor glitches with the walls.
Doom 3 DF Retro episode? Is that even a question? YES PLEASE!
My biggest gripe with the Switch versions of all three games is the lack of gyro aiming. I'm so used to motion controls on Doom 2016, Wolfenstein and a few other shooters on there, I keep trying to motion-aim at the zombies in Doom 3 right before they bite my face off.
"Disconnected from Bethesda *.* net. Network features will be unavailable." There's no online multiplayer, so what the hell do they mean by network features?

Selling your data to Satan is a feature apparently? 🤷♂️
A DF Retro of Doom 3 definitely sounds good. Speaking of Doom 3 and the BFG version, I hope one day we get to see an episode on creative's EAX (and maybe A3D?) in older titles (which is one of the major differences for me between BFG and original versions of Doom 3).
I'd love to see a DF Retro on Doom 3.
