Chandler Ruoff It also had the terminal system from Doom 4 & Doom Eternal for its story, plus there's a mod predating Doom 4 called Marathon Eternal, based on a cut Alpha story for Halo 1, complete with a shield world crossed with a Halo ring and 343 Guilty Spark making a cameo as "The Watcher" albeit as a traditional AI instead of a floating metal ball. (Halo was going to be a Marathon 4 but that idea was scrapped quite early, plus Bungie toned down references to it in later games so Microsoft couldn't snatch the trilogy from them)

@@chandlerruoff6866 Marathon had two different kinds of Rocket Jumps even. The "Grenade Hop" that's what we all think of now at Rocketing Jumping and the Rocket Recoil, which only worked off of ledges or midair because of how powerful the rocket launcher is. @Lion O Cyborg God, Eternal's good. Whenever I do a trilogy replay, I always add that one as a the fourth game in the trilogy. I suspect the UNSC ship Eternity might be a reference to that why with it's sister ship being the Infinity, maybe being a nod as Marathon 3 is called Infinity.

Duamerthrax Indeed. I also count Tempus Irae & its sequel, The Lost Levels as the sequel to Eternal and Rubicon as well as the upcoming Chronicles as sequels to those in that order. Also, Marathon 1 had grenade climbing and all three had wall walking as well: the latter is when you aim the assault rifle down and fire as you jump so you somehow make to an otherwise unreachable ledge, and the former is spamming grenade jumps and primary assault rifle fire so you float higher and higher. The result is the same: it looks like Marcus is bridging the gaps/walls with a staircase made of speeding bullets. I _wish_ I could make something like that up! Grenade climbing is still possible in the sequels but as grenade jumping was badly nerfed, it's a lot harder without Megabyte's GZ Doom style jumping script to let the player try grenade jumping Halo style.

This game feels like it came from an alternate universe where tech took longer to progress in the 90's, and there was a whole generation of raycaster shooters that expanded on what Wolf3D could do without changing the fundamental architecture. Like the software equivalent of steampunk.

Dibs on "pushwallpunk" for the Wolf/ROTT/Blake subgenre.
Notes from ROTT:DW speedrunner (after suffering a year of reviewing C code to get this game to almost under 42 min) Optimally, the best character to use in the game is Thi. She only has a slight speed loss compared to Lorelei, but has 15 more units of health. So it's a nice trade off; Slightly slower, but can take a few more hits. All of the projectile weapons damage are determine by the formula x((random>>y)+z). (x) being the multiplier, (y) being how many bits are shifted in regards to random (For instance, random value 50 would actually be 6 if (y) is 3) then added onto base number (z). Dark Staff has the highest base number , at 190. Despite being slower, the pistol deals more damage than the MP-40. Mentioned in the official Apogee FAQ, if you somehow get caught in a moving wall without dying, you can phase through it. This can be done on E3A1 (robo-tricks as i've been calling it) to pass through the "wave" of moving walls and in theory skip a good portion of Four-Way Chamber. The "Capsules" that you break in the Darian level, depending on the order you destroy them, can manipulate which door Darian exits to get into the main area of the arena. NME is definitely indeed bullshit, however, the behavior is (somewhat) simple. Essentially, NME takes a "snapshot" of where you are whenever you are in it's line of sight. Once it has done this, it will head to this spot, changing behavior only if you are in sight again. After it hits this spot, it'll free roam till it sees you again. Since it only attacks when it's a particular distance away from you, you can cheese the fight by getting it into situations where it takes a straight line route to you. Firebomb at the start, and 1-2 (full)bazooka's later, ya done. Fastest fight was ~30s. El Oscuro part 1 is the high S-tier bullshit that I am still attempting to figure out but, essentially, you would want to cheese this "fight" as well by taking advantage of the level layout near the elevator. Get around the touchplate that seals the elevator, wake up EO, lure them to near the elevator, get back to infront of it, and try to manipulate their pathfinding to where they are behind a column. Sometimes they get into a state where you have to walk forward a bit to get them not in their flying state and then backup so you don't get hit by them. When they are close to you, they do both charge and "fire head" attacks. These two attacks seem to lower his health a considerable amount and as such, are the attack you want them to do the most. You can also do rocket jumps using the god mode attack. It's cool as shit, but you have to have precise timing to pull it off. There is definitely more, but it's gonna be more troving through the code. Hopefully I can get sub 40 in the practice room during AGDQ.

@Zoomer Waffen Don't get me wrong, I agree that tech has to serve humans, solve their problems and has to make lives easier. Keeping with the example, smartphones are doing just that, but they are also zombifying their users. Just like with a knife, you can prepare food or you can kill people, it cuts both ways (pun totally intended). Hence why I insist that it depends on the wielder of the tech and not the tech itself.

I've actually been to San Nicolas Island. It's primarily a naval radar installation, where ships stop to calibrate their own systems before heading out to sea. It's also home to a crapload of elephant seals and sea lions, as well as the great white sharks which prey on them. It also has all these tiny little foxes on it, which are surprisingly tolerant of humans, sometimes outright friendly. A biologist I spoke to there believes they may have been brought over and kept as pets by early native settlers of the island. My point is that these cultists must be fairly badass to have kicked the US Navy off the island.

FYI you're using the split missile wrong. If you hold down the fire button it shoots one straight missile like the bazooka. You can then release the button to make it do the split at will. This gives it some practical use if you get good at aiming it. If you just hit the fire button it shoots both to the side and is pretty useless.

Alright, so, I'm a drop this? There are soundtracks that transcend their games. There are also games that transcend their intended audience because of soundtrack. It's give and take. But MegaMan X's soundtrack gets a special shout out by society, because it was made by the game in a sense. The tone and tempo was tempered by what the game was. And the MMX soundtrack leaked into non gaming communities because... It has some banging bops, but brought the clout of being so good on its own, while being tied to a damn good game? Yeah. It carried both its own clout but it's stage. Special circumstances. On the other hand? Look at Deadly Towers NES. That soundtrack actually is amazing. But... The game itself frequently contends for the top 10 of all ""worst games ever" lists. Willing to bet not many people know that opening theme. It's fantastic.

The split missile fires straight when you hold the fire key, then splits and homes-in when you let go. So best used fired through a door into a room before you split. The "gravity defying" enforcer grenades are so you can bat them back using the excalibat. And just to mention, another cool (for the time) feature is that glass doesn't break when you walk up to it, but hold shift/run and you'll smash through it, taking a bit of damage.

I always found it kinda funny that Tom Hall left id because he didn't want to make violent games like Doom all the time. And then immediately after that he made ROTT.

Koko Actually Tom left because he wanted Doom to be more like Marathon and have a strong story to go hand in hand with its stellar gameplay, going by the Doom Bible, as well as having the environments try to make architectural sense. He sort of got his wish with Brutal Doom Extermination Day, Doom 4 and Doom Eternal, though Doom 3 tried something similar. Most of his plans for Doom 1 were simplified or vetoed by the two Johns, the story was dumbed down to its traditional Mario or Classic Sonic standards and the levels became the glorified mouse mazes we associate with pre-Duke 3D shooters like Doom and Marathon 1.

Georgi Hadzhiev I never said it was bad level design. Just that it no longer resembles an actual Martian moon base like Tom Hall intended. (Though Tom Hall's design was before the move from Tei Tenga I think) We wouldn't see attempts at realistic level design until either System Shock 1 or Duke Nukem 3D. That doesn't mean Knee Deep in the Dead doesn't play well.

As Civvie said, RotT's music is SotN-tier. Always worth a revisit.
4:17 Actually, GOG's re-release of the game does have the soundtrack. 15:42 Also, I read recently that the way the Split Missile is supposed to work is that you shoot it and hold LMB and release when you want the missiles to split.
Regarding the RotT soundtrack it is included with the GoG version.
Can't wait for Extreme Rise of The Triad. I did play it recently, and I quite enjoyed some of the new gimmicks and tricks they managed to pull.
Wasn't there multiple extra voices per character assigned to the F1-F12 keys when in multiplayer as well? I distinctly remember playing over the modem and your character could yell out "BEHIND YOU!" " Laaaaaaa-da-daaaaa", "I seeee you" and other obnoxious stuff. It was great.

What I remember most about RoT was deathmatching my family over the LAN. I say LAN but really it was this Frankensteined network of computers connected via serial ports. It culminated in our mother getting the crazy bat thing and beating us all to death with it on a level that looked like an old fashioned baseball diamond. LoL :)
YOU FINALLY DID IT MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN HEARD THANKS CIVVIEMAN
Thank you for this nostalgia, Civvie! Loved that game! Despite all its shortcomings, and me having played a lot of Wolf, Doom and Heretic before it, I remember being so overwhelmed by it, that I played for 4 hours straight and then went home thinking it was the best-looking most awesome game ever. Btw, you forgot to mention there was a first kind of bot mode in this game! It was called "deluder" mode, deluder being a fast evasive object for target practice, that regrettably didn't fight back, but it was still fun =D
I fuckin love Going Down the Fast Way. I've been playing it in my playlist for 25 years, and I never met anybody else who appreciated it like I did until now.
How much you wanna civvie’s gunna look at the extra content in the ludicrous edition _this_ crimbo, as is tradition
i really appreciate you covering this game, as it was one of my favorites back when i was a teen. though like other titles, it was beaten out by duke 2d and other titles that were better but ROTT still found a place in my heart. there was one game franchise from this era that you havent covered andhonestly. probably should. Descent, whichh got overshadowed by the other games in its era but it was quite a wonderful FPS for the day.
