Wow, this took MUCH longer than I had intended. I was thinking this was going to be a 30-minute type deal, but no!

I do hope you enjoy it, however. In this video, I try to theorize about what Doom 2's levels could represent. There's not much more to it :P 

Subtitles have been added (and still processing as of right now), might be out of sync here and there. I'll adjust them on Monday. It's also still processing at the moment, should be done in an hour from now.

Have a lovely weekend, everyone!

Edit from the 05.02.24: now with proper subtitles!

Trying to Make Sense of Doom 2's Maps - An Interpretation

Doom 2's maps may appear nonsensical, detached and overall just strange. But what if they had an actual story to tell? ▶Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GermanPeter ▶Twitter: https://twitter.com/RealGermanPeter ▶Discord: https://discord.gg/WKd9323 ▶Thumbnail by revenatn https://twitter.com/revenatn ▶Images: Wikimedia: Craig - Own work, Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=1537295 Falk2 - Own work https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:X2.26_Bf_Haparanda.jpg Plinio the elder - Own work https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Plan_of_Jeremy_Bentham%27s_panopticon_prison,_drawn_by_Willey_Reveley_in_1791.jpg https://brickipedia.fandom.com/wiki/6592_Vacation_Hideaway?file=6592_Vacation_Hideaway.jpg https://brickipedia.fandom.com/wiki/6372_Town_House?file=6372_Town_House.jpg IAEA Imagebank https://www.flickr.com/photos/iaea_imagebank/51814773840 https://knowyourmeme.com/photos/1133833-super-mario-64 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOl95Xnzw8c&lc=UgxwHzdJ8D3hAgDhn714AaABAg ▶Videos: In Defense of DOOM 2's City Levels https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_E4BPnryr7M Longplay of DOOM (1995) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9xVaHDaQ30 The Cuteness of Details in Wolfenstein 3D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8sgpHy3bCo Recreating DOOM Levels and How Memory Works https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOl95Xnzw8c DOOM 2 level 16 House Tour https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0DVwhy3R3k ♫Music: Doom II OST by Bobby Prince, uploaded to Archive.org by Manac03 https://archive.org/details/doom-2-ost Ending Cutscene - 82/97 - Wolfenstein: The Old Blood Extra Soundtrack https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SL5xBKYKRmI ▶Other: Doom 2 Beta maps uploaded by Doomkid Thanks for goin' through hell.

Looking great. I'm linking the map edits to showcase some architecture interpretation and make us better imagine it. For some reason, I've never watched your Doom 2 City level analysis video (Might be because i never fully finished it), will do after that !
