Heck my first DOOM was the shareware episode1 0.99b, which didn't have
working sound until the patch a few days later.

DOOM1 DOOM2, and that was it, never played the later ones.

They seemed so shallow after playing Duke Nukem 3D, and by all accounts
in here when DOOM3 came out it was jump scares and lack of light that
was it's driving design.   
Light or gun but not both, has no one heard of duct tape?  That's just
idiotic design.
