Now here is something truly amazing. Modder ‘HELLKNIGHT61’ has released a mod for Age of Empires 2 that lets you experience the classic Doom game from a totally different perspective.

This Doom mod for Age of Empires 2 features an isometric camera, and lets you control the Doomguy and fight against DOOM monsters with a third-person shooter perspective.

This mod also features some of Doom’s mechanics. For instance, the Marine can use his “Sprint” ability. The Marine can also interact with switches, elevators and teleportation devices. Additionally, he can use “Standard Shotgun”, “Double Barreled Shotgun”, “Rocket Barreled Shotgun”, “BFG” and “Soul Cube” items.

What’s also cool here is that the mod features a totally unique story. Still, there are some similarities with Doom (1993) and Doom 3 (2004) games in some aspects. For example, the main villain is Betruger (who is obviously inspired by Doom 3).

You can download this mod from here. Below you can also find some videos from it.

With a top-down strategy perspective...

3rd person shooter is behind a person's shoulder, aligned with their sights on a simulated 3d plane

Fuck anything can run doom at this point, honestly it would be refreshing news to hear of something that can’t.
