and i dont even say doom because of doom the game itself. theres one factor that doom has that almost all the others dont, which is how relevant doom was for creating a game engine, which would evolve into other game engines.

doom engine is basically responsible for quake, goldsrc, id tech, IW, source,, all of which had many defining games.

the fact that games still being released till this day, has roots on an engine developed over 30 years ago
