So glad to see this! Despite loving "traditional" action-y Doom, I always had a soft spot for Doom3 for actually being a pretty enjoyable "serious" horror reboot of the original plot. And now it's in VR! With gesticulation! Can't wait for all the smooches on Dr. Bertruger, that lovable scamp.
I remember in 2004 thinking the strange "gibbing"/ skeletonizing effect looked stupid. And that it was obvious the intent was to try delete the ragdolls as fast as possible for performance reasons.
Aside from that though I still think the graphics hold up, even in this quest VR port, just because of how animated the environments are. I can't think of any game since that's had so many machines with attached dynamic lights just doing stuff in the background.
Are y'all crazy? This game looked bad in 2004 and it still looks bad now, technical wizardry doesn't mean anything when its so ugly aesthetically. It was never a good looking game even next to its contemporaries and it's aged liked milk
Enjoying this playthrough though SGF, never thought I'd see you play Doom 3
Man, I forgot how lousy this game is. Enemies walk like Sims, guns have less kick than a paintball gun, and the imp flames sound like you're getting beaned by a snowball.
To be fair to the guy who sent that one email, if I were in a base where the power going out might mean that I won't be able to breathe soon, I'd be terrified of flickering lights too.
The flashlight / pistol combination is called the Harries technique, I think. Interesting to see an implementation in a VR game – only game I've seen that has something similar is the Receiver games.
Finally, a game (or, a port of a game) that properly emulates the scene in the DOOM movie where Karl Urban does cool FPS stuff with a shotgun down a hallway.
I remember finding the shooty bits of Doom 3 a bit boring, but I’ve always loved the intro of walking around the workplace on Mars, would love a full game of just that first hour.

Ohhhh this is a treat
Thanks and have a happy spooky season SGF
This is probably the least SGF game ever, but I'm glad to see it lol. Go forth and purge the brutfha fever from mars!
Doomguy and his quest to smooch everyone before all hell breaks loose
Those kisses!
It's almost as if I'm being kissed by supergreatfriend, except that I'm in the.. body… of.. Doom Guy? Who is controlled by SGF.
Ah, Doom: The Repercussions of Evil…
Glad to start a new series with some lovely prose, thanks for the nostalgia SGF!
highly recommend to sgf or anyone a mod for doom 3 called "overthinked"
collection of mods and tweaks to make the game feel more survival horror-ee-ee
im a dirty doom 3 enjoyer, i think it"s fiiiiiiiiiiine
Hrrrrnngggrrrgg yes.
18:20 Oh hey, that's Cam Clarke!
A Mars base in the grips of alien ghosts turning people into zombies? Where have I heard that before? Like… thrice?

I can turn my body on and off too SGF, it's not that impressive.
This one was contentious because of the plot where doomguy thinks the apartment is his mom
It's crazy how good a 2004 game still looks.
54:55 KISSING SPREE
Ah… Opening with the classics, eh SGF?

the arms sliding into the mirror with the pc just glaring demonically in the bathroom, incredible.
Mwah :3

Wow the infamous inaccurate shotgun looks fixed in this version. Makes sense since it would be even more frustrating in VR.
Every time SGF kisses an NPC an angel gets its wings

Newscaster is voiced by the same VA as Ulmeyda… Andre Ulmeyda
an SGF video is like a warm cup of coco on cold rainy day

Doom 3 is a fine game, but it's not Doom.
Wait … 2004!? Fack, time just dissapears …
Looking forward to this, as always. SGF's mannerisms in VR never fails to make my brain do happy-chems 💞
I love that it has become a spooky-month tradition to post VR games to the channel.
I haven't laughed this hard since RE4 VR.
18:47 – Wait are you telling me there's some sort of rebel terrorist group on Mars–some kind of Red Faction?
Damn, I really didn't expect to see this on the channel!! What a treat!
Is this a port of the BFG edition?
Can't believe I got to go to Mars, wear cool armor and carry a gun and corporate won't let me shoot the
serfsemployeesI'm really impressed by how good this port is.
Apparently, in the future not a single person speaks German anymore. "Dr. Betrüger" indeed.
You get no punishment for killing the civilians. Which is bizarre
the voice actor of the scientist who tried to send the message to earth was in vampire the masquerade bloodlines too
Immediately subscribed when I heard the Repercussions Of Evil reference lmao
This version is based on the Doom 3 BFG Edition am i right? The disintegration looked so much better on the original Doom 3. It had more fiery sparks.
