DOOM (PC) (1993)

Overview: A 1993 first-person shooter.
20130208:*
I played DOOM for the first time today. Joining me was my friend Chris.

Baron of Hell (E1M8)

Gameplay Log:
We played the first episode, "Knee-Deep in the Dead," E1M1 to E1M8.
After we completed E1M8, the server sent us back to E1M1. I then switched the level to E1M9. [20191218: Apparently E1M9 is a secret level which is accessed from another level: E1M3. Furthermore, completing the level will take the player to E1M4]
We continued with the second episode, "The Shores of Hell." However, we only played E2M1 to E2M3.

A more detailed server log can be found near the bottom of this post with some minor edits.

*I have a set of screenshots which match up with the server log ("you go into a portal and fight the monsters but then it cuts out") but the server log is dated 20130108 and the screenshots are dated 20130208. Between the two, I decided to trust the date of the screenshots. [20191218: In my blog post for Doom II, I mention that it is the first time I ever played a game in the Doom series. It must be the case that the log date of 20130108 is incorrect.]

It's been a while since Chris and I played DOOM. We decided to play from the beginning at a harder difficulty.

Setup: Setup port forwarding. Create a custom server (difficulty set to Ultra-Violence). Join the server.

Gameplay Log:
We played "Knee-Deep in the Dead," E1M1 to E1M8.

Today Chris and I continued playing more DOOM.

Cacodemon.

Gameplay Log:
We played "The Shores of Hell," E2M1 to E2M8.
After we completed E2M8, the server sent us back to E2M1. I then switched the level to E2M9. [20191218: Apparently E2M9 is a secret level which is accessed from another level: E2M5.]
After we completed E2M9, the server sent us to E2M6 and we were surprised. [20191218: This is suppose to happen.]
We played the first half of the third episode, "Inferno," E3M1 to E3M4. I was feeling tired during E3M4, but played until we completed it.

A more detailed player log can be found near the bottom of this post with some minor edits. Note that a player log also records item pick ups. However, I have scrubbed that information from the log.

Dead Zombieman.

Chris and I played DOOM. We wanted to pick up from where we left off last time, but we were disadvantaged by not having any ammo. As such, we tried to enable cheats in order to get some ammo. Unfortunately, we could not get it to work. The following was repeated under various conditions:
[00:02:00] ]idfa
[00:02:00] sv_cheats must be true to enable this command.
[00:02:04] ]sv_cheats 1
[00:02:04] sv_cheats will be changed for next game.

Gameplay Log:
We started playing E3M4 and then eventually we switched to E3M5.
We tried to get the cheat working and eventually just kept playing.
We played E3M5 to E3M8. [20191218: The player log doesn't indicate if we beat E3M8]
