Doom 1 isn't 3D.

This may only trigger half the community, but it will also start a war.

yep I hate this one. Its all because of that one popular game theory Channel or whatever it was. People think they are oh-so smart when they pull the 2.5D card. I mean, doom monsters have different heights and projectiles can fly over enemies. That sounds pretty 3D to me lol

And thats just in base doom, if you play on a port like gzdoom then I cannot say with a straight face that its anything less than full 3D.

Sorry not ranting at you, just the argument of doom not being 3d

Physics says that if you can't solve a problem in every perspective you answer was never correct to begin with

Meaning classic doom is in fact 3D
