Doom 2 (Sega Saturn) TAS Walkthrough - Maps 41-46, 58, 59 (Part 2/3)

This is a tool-assisted walkthrough on Ultra-Violence. No messing around or time wasting, no annoying commentary. Just a full devastation of every map.

This is Part 2 of my full walkthrough of Doom 2 for Sega Saturn. It completes each map with 100% kills and secrets. It's not a speedrun, but is speed-oriented.

4 years ago, after finishing part 1, I was so exhausted and bored I wasn't willing to play Saturn Doom anymore. Unexpectedly, fafling released a fix patch which adjusts the game's memory to utilize unused resources as well as tweak various configs and values. I found this a good opportunity to revisit the game and continue my unfinished walkthrough, which isn't widely spreaded anyway.

The companies part and loadings are cut from the video.

Watching this TAS style makes the Saturn version seem nearly playable! 😉

This fix patch does wonders to the Saturn port!

Я удивлён, что игра теперь хорошо эмулируется (хотя я руку на пульсе и не держал).

И да, первые 6 секунд меня вынесли. TURBO SPEED.

Sure, it's not PS1 levels of amazing but it looks alright. Otherwise you did great here

Watching these Saturn playthroughs makes me sad it was such a bad port. It has the darker more ominous atmosphere of the Playstation version, but without the silly colored lighting so overall it looks a lot closer to the PC original. Doom 2 wasn't ported to many consoles back in the day, so a Saturn version that ran smoothly but was still visually distinct from the Playstation one would have been a feather in the cap for Sega. Maybe one day some enterprising fans will give us a "Saturn Doom 2 Resurrection", and give the console a version of Doom 2 worthy of it.
