    I got stuck in Delta Labs 1 thinking I was doing something wrong. Then quick google search shows this is a known glitch from when the game first released in 2004... Almost 20 years and still not patched?!

    Anyway, I won't continue playing because I've lost 3 hours of gameplay and can't be asked to do it all again. Shame, because it had been really good until now. Advice for anyone

    Advice for anyone else before you play this game:

    "DO NOT click the elevator buttons in the lobby in the delta labs 1 until you restart the reactor!!!! If you do, you will not be able to use the elevators, even after the reactor restart!"

    DOOM 3 has since been surpassed in everything it set out to do by DOOM 2016, but it's still worth a look if you can't get enough of the series. [Issue #42 – October 2019, p. 21]

    Compared to previous entries, Doom 3 is... well, different. It's a linear and repetitive, low-key horror first-person shooter, which looks great, but can also be frustratingly dark. Some like it, and some don't, as taste is subjective. What isn't, though, is the quality of a port, and in that regard, DOOM 3 is a near flawless one, and of the best version yet, with all additional content included, and - usually - a great price attached to it all.

    What Doom 3 proposed was of great quality and is still worth playing today. Among other things, it is a great game because it is the title of the franchise that has more elements of other genres, especially survival horror.
