Classic (if violent) fun.
A fast paced shooter that carries itself well with a brooding and violent atmosphere. While not the most in-depth shooter out there, its gameplay is challenging and fun. As other reviews have said, there is an issue where where the music does not play. However this has no effect on gameplay and, in my opinion, only a marginal effect on atmosphere.

Great shooter!
I'm not sure what reviewing a 24 year old classic will really acomplish but this game is just great, since it was a shareware game episode 1 is by far the best. Episode 2 is kinda garbage with a pretty lacking amount of ammo. Episode 3 and 4 were amazing though!! The visuals have aged really well, the animation is very choppy and lacks all interpolation, but it's very charming. Play this game, but maybe pirate it if you don't want to give any money to microsoft who own this game.

It’s awesome as it was in 1996, but…
I played the original source port, and had a blast, but whenever I tried to play the “enhanced” version, it’s keeps repeating the error message stating it needs Vulkan to work. When I DID find the file, the enhanced version still failed to launch. I’m at a loss here. STILL able to play the game, but not getting the full experience of the 25 year enhanced version…

Watermark in first person shooters
Wolfenstein 3D pretty much started the craze, showing that what was possible and Doom took that a step farther, showing a much more detailed world. Quake was the next level, and was quite fun. There are reasons it has been ported to almost every system architecture that can run it, from supercomputers to full-immersion 3D devices. (How do they call this a 1998 game, though? Was this a later release than the initial Shareware version of ~1996?) The graphics are grainy and the puzzles often require learning through experience. The controls require tweaking to get just so before the game is comfortable to play. Nevertheless, it's a fun game. I particularly enjoyed playing it with organ fugues or cheerful fiddle music as the BGM.

No music
Haven't gotten very far in the game. Game seems pretty fun, not as good looking as Doom but the enemies so far are pretty interesting as are the weapons but the lack of music just KILLS it for me. I don't blame GOG, this is the same on Steam as well- I know there are probably work around, doing some sort of CD mounting with some 3rd party files but in this age we as gamers shouldn't need to do that. This game simply shouldn't be for sale. If Bethesda wants it out in the world, just give it away for free. Say sorry we can't give you the soundtrack, so we're not going to charge for this. Either that, or just create a new soundtrack or get licensing or something man. But as fun as the gameplay may be, the experience is just empty because of the overwhelming silence in much of the levels.
