Also… and I never see anyone else mention this… DOOM does not take place on Mars.
DOOM episode 1: Knee-Deep in the Dead takes place on Phobos. Episode 2: The Shores of Hell takes place on Deimos. Episode 3: Inferno takes place in Hell.
Doom 2: Hell on Earth takes place, as you might think, on Earth.
The whole plot of the first game is that humans are experimenting with teleporters between Phobos and Deimos, when Deimos mysteriously vanishes. To investigate, the player character is sent to Phobos, with the mission to make it through the teleporter to Deimos to see where it is. But upon arriving on Phobos, something is horribly wrong…
I don’t know if the '93 version of Doom will do it, but it probably will. I installed Dark Forces on a machine several years ago, and was happily playing for about 20-30 minutes when I suddenly got motion sickness. Those older games run at a lower fps, and apparently my eyes really don’t like that.
Haven’t played Doom myself but I have a couple of questions. Did doom 1993 happen in 2016s universe and was doom guy canonically the first human on Mars is ether universe.
I’d hate to be the first human… in the original game there are dead people all over the place and the evil humans you do see are posessed.

Mars adjacent.
The music can be heard all the way from Mars’ moons.
But Doom (2016) does.
I feel that many gamers nowadays mean the 2016 reboot, when they talk about Doom, and not the original from 1993. We’re getting old …
