Project mention: Best way to get into classic Doom? | /r/Doom | 2023-05-14

The go-to granddaddy of making it more modern is probably GZDoom. For some reason I don't remember, I didn't get on with it as well for "real" doom, only the big mods. (https://www.zdoom.org) My personal favorite that adds just enough graphical/audio enhancements without fundamentally altering the game, is Doomsday Engine (https://dengine.net/)
