Man, Doom blew everyone's mind when it showed up at work. Total productivity killer. FPS on PCs, Apples and Macs were pretty crappy prior to that. Hexen was creepier and improved the game play. Descent (non ID) was a great multiplayer and had better 3D. Finally everyone was itchin' for Quake because NIN was blowing up huge in 1995. Too bad the last level at it hard. Quake 2 had a great objective with cool bosses and much better level editing than Doom. ... And then, too many goddamn games to keep up! 1996 + Diablo I is about when I just got overwhelmed...
