Its a fun classic romp, but your results may vary on how it can run on any individual PC. Be it an unofficial patch you can find here in the reviews or something as simple as enabling compatibility mode (I also enabled Disable fullscreen optimizations and Run program as administrator.) Your results may vary, no fix is perfect, but checking for a solution is well worth the effort for this great title!
As someone who got the Steam copy at launch I can 100% agree that this is the best way to play DOOM 64 next to owning an N64 copy (which I did, and stupidly gave away as a dumb child, I digress). However, I do think it is worth noting that this game is VERY intense when it comes to flashing lights and photosensitive imagery. And as someone who was diagnosed with photosensitivity issues a few years ago, it was difficult to play it now than it was back then as a kid. A very big example is the supercharge pickup which straight up flashes non-stop until the power ends. Of course the dark, contrasting lighting that makes this game's atmosphere so great can be visually grating when brighter contrasts make their way in. If you are photosensitive but don't get seizures from flashing lights, please play with a light on, take breaks, drink plenty of water. Do all those things you don't want to do when playing a genuinely good game lol Final thoughts. It's a very good game. Even what I could play of it before I had to stop, I knew that Nightdive, once more, did something special in bringing this back. But please beware those with epilepsy. 4 stars because it's still a banger of a game.
