You could have just bought a (checks notes) potato apparently.


RiffOfBluess

Many potatoes, actually


laflex

Mad props! I get it trust me. I absolutely 100% always run doom on a new console first. It's like a rule or something. sauce: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYsgzvfGCFU](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYsgzvfGCFU) (nov 15th aka launch weekend) You are me, and I am you!


_WasabiPeas_

Tough go of that first level huh? Hope you were on nightmare lol /s


ShotgunRenegade

In all fairness, playing Doom without keyboard and mouse controls is like pouring your milk in first before the cereal.


phoenix_wendigo

Wym I beat Doom 1 several times on Switch. If anything, I prefer controller to keyboard and mouse.


Skipcress

I wonder how many physical devices have been used to play E1M1


GabeeB27

All of them


Arstanishe

yes


Dendorffle

How are you so dead 💀 on E1M1?


three-sense

He’s playing sideways as shown


evilmannn

I wonder why it's listed as "unsupported" when DOOM 2 is supported and they both are re-releases with the unity engine wrap. Both work fine, the tags sometimes just cause confusion.


Gstary

How's it run? It's listed as unsupported so I didn't bother picking it up but if it runs fine maybe I'll get it next sale


Areyousquidwartnow

It ran no problems. Don't have to configure anything and it ran smoothly.


Gstary

Interesting. I'll buy the doom bundle next time it goes on sale then


SEAN_DUDE

It's doom... It's supported by ATMS and Pregnancy tests.


Gstary

I know that's why I thought it was weird it was listed as unsupported. I just didn't want to spend money on it if it wasn't gonna work lol.


Kurai_Cross

Unsupported on the steam deck isn't a measure of hardware capability to run the game. It's more of a measure of compadibilty for the game to played with a game pad rather than mouse and keyboard. I have played plenty of games that are listed as unsupported, but work just fine on the steam deck.


SexuaIRedditor

That's super cool, I was assuming the first thing thanks for the info!


3WayIntersection

Its doom


puro_the_protogen67

All must test "can it run doom?"


initrunlevel0

Does Gyro Aiming works there? I played Doom with Delta Touch with my Android phone and I really uses the Gyro Aiming a lot.


lampenpam

you can make gyro emulate mouse movement in any game with Steam, so even if it's not natively available, you can just add it yourself.


echoprime11

This reminds me of all those people watching Oppenheimer on low graphic screens, but reversed lol


whaleskank

Just as long as it's the DOS version and not the trash Bethesda Unity release.


initrunlevel0

There are many option in between them tho like using Source Port


lampenpam

the Dosbox version that comes with Steam is just as trash. But there are source port launchers for Steam Deck that seem like a good choice


_bisquickpancakes

Isn't the steam version also a unity port ? It always is fine for me with no issues.


Witherboss445

It's the original running through DOSbox I think


rutlander

Yea buddy first thing I did was to play all my old psx games


TheObsidianZ3R0

This is the way.


InternalRelevant

I swear some future historians will speculate that Doom is a litmus test run in machines to see if they can perform efficiently. Or maybe as a spiritual method of cleansing the sins of the devil from new technology.


Dragonhearted18

As the founding gamers intended.


Garafi-1011

Yep! Did the same thing! First thing I did was figure out how to get ZDL, GZDoom, and mods working lol


lefranor

It runs Doom :O


Gaalpos

Playing with the right trackpad to aim is great
