This is my album Doomguy's Mixtape in it's entirety. This was done as a partial "update" to my previous Doom cover albums Doom Remakes... Remade! and Doom II Remakes.
If you're unaware of the original projects, they are my takes on the Doom soundtrack, done in a very conservative fashion in the sense that I retain the original structure of the songs (for the most part) and try to stay faithful to how the original songs are constructed.
The album includes a selection of songs from both albums (plus two outtakes from the unfinished Final Doom Remakes project and a couple bonus tracks) in a heavily remixed/remastered fashion. I approached the production of these songs very differently for this. Instead of looking for a natural sound, I went with a more in-your-face production, with a bombastic drum sound and a more aggressive guitar tone, but underneath they're still the same master tracks, just mixed and processed differently. I did this mainly because I felt the more metal-focused stuff sounded a bit weak, while the quieter stuff sounded pretty good already so I don't think they need any sort of remixing.
I sincerely hope you enjoy this, this took a bit of time to get right. I'd be extremely thankful if you guys spread this stuff to anybody you think would enjoy this! Let's make this reach the guys who were involved in the making of Doom!
Thanks for listening!
Now, these codes were clearly made to be used on an emulator, not on a console, and as such, it just doesn't work very well at all. I don't know what the codes do, but I assume it changes the logic speed of some parts of the game (other bits remain too fast, like the menus and the Chomps on Rainbow Road) and another code to unlock the framerate. I am assuming there's something messing up the blanking intervals or something since when the framerate goes too high, you get black bars covering the screen.
I mentioned on the previous video that emulators don't really do cycle-accurate emulation of the console, and they're noticeably faster than the real deal. Most of the time it's not really noticeable and it can break games a little bit here and there, but in this case, it's very desirable to have that extra power, since unfortunately, using this code, the game slows down when the framerate goes down, and the console can't keep up most of the time. I found out the best track for this is Rainbow Road. Luigi Raceway and Banshee Boardwalk almost work fine, but they start lagging at one point, all the rest are pretty much slow motion the whole way through. Still, it's pretty sweet to see this game running so smoothly on the real deal!
This time, the process is a combination of the newer setup using BizHawk, and capturing the console. This was done mainly because Nintendo 64 emulation doesn't really do the slowdowns the real hardware does, which means some tracks, particularly on the Special Cup, play faster than they should on emulators and the credits play so fast that the song doesn't end at the right time. For that reason I decided to capture the Special Cup and the credits from an actual console. In hindsight, I should have just stuck with the emulator footage since the artifacts are VERY visible on the console footage due to the uneven framerate.
The processing was done the same way as the Spyro one, using Premiere Pro with the Optical Flow blending, then upscaling the end result so YouTube actually plays the footage at 60 FPS.
2:08:30 Spyro the Dragon
3:40:10 GeoGuessr
4:34:58 Tomb Raider II
Stream I did on June 30, 2023 finishing Spyro the Dragon and playing a bit of GeoGuessr and Tomb Raider II. This was my final stream, at least for the time being. I had been considering this for a while and I think it was necessary for the sake of my mental health that had been getting more and more affected by these streams. It includes a very lengthy conversation in which I explain in detail why I took this decision.
I want to thank everyone for being part of this journey, no matter if you were there for just one day or since the very first stream. I hope to see you again someday!

12:24 Best of 2022
1:36:49 Game starts
Stream I did on June 23, 2023 playing Spyro the Dragon and showcasing the Best of 2022 compilation. This stream was tough to get through, man. I wasn't feeling it at all, and it just got worse and worse as it went. I wish I knew what's wrong, but I don't.

I completely changed my workflow for this entry in the series. I just used emulation (Octoshock through BizHawk) to capture the footage for this instead of actual hardware due to the noticeable reduction in video quality from converting the footage into digital and stuff (reference to the Super Mario 64 video to get what I mean), and instead of using SVP, I just threw the footage on Premiere Pro and messed around with Optical Flow. It works as well, and it's a lot simpler to set up.
So yeah, before you ask, no, I didn't get to play this game at 60 FPS, this is just post-processed footage. And yeah, I completely forgot about the flight level, but I'm not very good at Spyro and capturing decent footage took me a while, so I'll just roll with it. The closest you can get to this game at 60 FPS is the Reignited remake, which is pretty good, actually.

Stream I did on June 22, 2023 finishing Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Still no DLC thing, it didn't come up after the game. I somehow finished the stream last week right before starting the end of the game, which I wasn't expecting, but the game is over. This was a very reflective stream and I did talk about my feelings on streaming at the time.

Special thanks to @Breaking_Deb for helping scouring through VODs to get clips and starring in the intro and outro and thanks to @Fuse4Spence for the little narration in the "Some Things Never Change" segment.
Enjoy!!

Stream I did on June 16, 2023 playing Spyro the Dragon. The game apparently didn't save at the end of the previous stream so I had to redo a couple of levels. The rest of it was doing a single world. I got to do Tree Tops, apparently the most disliked or the hardest level of the game or whatever.

Stream I did on June 15, 2023 playing Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Got side tracked a lot trying to get to do a DLC bit of the game that I like, but I ended up doing a lot of sidequests that I didn't even have to do at all, so barely any progress. I was very out of it on this stream, not really feeling it, and not a lot of activity in chat either.

Stream I did on June 14, 2023 playing Super Mario Bros. 3. My new Achilles' heel, Super Mario Bros. 3 is one of the toughest games I've played and completely defeated me. Before you even waste time watching this wreck of a stream, I only made it to half of world 6 and died 99 times. Maybe I'll face this game again in the future, but not soon.

10:04 Desert Bus VR
Stream I did on June 10, 2023 celebrating my third anniversary as a streamer. Established as a tradition, I returned to Donkey Kong Country and Desert Bus again this year, as always. This part of the video includes the entirety of Desert Bus VR. This year Breaking_Deb, lysteriaransom, PSMan98, maryhauk, Fuse4Spence, bethanyplz, ToastiiBear, Grchman, ZeroJutsu and AcumaKai joined the voice chat during the trip! Includes a lot of soundboard madness, lots of !gifts and some UFO-related storytelling.

58:28 Donkey Kong Country
3:28:00 Post-game BRB
Stream I did on June 10, 2023 celebrating my third anniversary as a streamer. Established as a tradition, I returned to Donkey Kong Country and Desert Bus again this year. I completed the game, again counting deaths, which were even more than last year, with 16 deaths this year instead of the 12 from 2022, and then we rode the Desert Bus! This part of the video includes the entirety of Donkey Kong Country (including sorting out some technical difficulties and completely reconfiguring my capture device because I lost my settings) and my BRB screen for an outrageous amount of time as I prepped for Desert Bus and ate something.

Stream I did on June 9, 2023 starting Spyro the Dragon. I had played this game a couple of times before, but I decided to start from scratch for this stream to do the entire game in one go instead of picking up on an older stream. The game is great fun and apart from me getting used to the controls, it's pretty manageable! This was done during an experimental period regarding the audio, so Deb sounds a bit louder than usual in this stream.

Stream I did on June 8, 2023 playing Shadow of the Tomb Raider. This was a bit of an experimental stream trying out an audio docking thingy. I think it works fine? That's gonna help not having stupidly quiet games in the background, I suppose! There's also a severe case of lag happening at one point, so be warned of the slideshow. I went through my favourite part of the game in this stream.

Stream I did on June 7, 2023 finishing Descent II: Vertigo. This was the finale of Vertigo, it turned out that S.P.I.K.E., the cliffhanger from the stream the week prior, was a standard robot. A very annoying one, but just a robot. The game went smoothly, and the levels felt quite short in the end. It was fun, though! This stream was nowhere near as crazy and the previous Descent II one though.

Exploring the Depths is the series I have in which I play classic Doom WADs on stream!
Stream I did on June 2, 2023 playing myhouse.wad, a Doom II mod that initially presents itself as a "I created my house in Doom" WAD but that it has a lot of depth to it and there's a lot to it beyond just the house.

Stream I did on May 31, 2023 playing Descent II: Vertigo. This was one of my favourite streams ever. I introduced a new !gift command and chaos ensued as a result of it. About the game, we made quite a bit of progress and we stopped at the introduction of S.P.I.K.E.! We don't know what that thing does, but next week we will!

28:26 The Sims 2
Stream we did on May 26, 2023 finishing The Sims 2. This stream concluded the playthrough of The Sims 2 we started with Deb. A gargantuan ordeal of exploring this game comes to an end. We all passed away, but with death, comes new life, they say...

Stream I did on May 24, 2023 starting Descent II: Vertigo. I started this just for the same of returning to Descent II, one of my favourite games of all time. This time checking out the Vertigo expansion. So far so good! I decided to play on Rookie instead of Hotshot and so far I'm kind of regretting it because it's kind of too easy, but I have a feeling this is going to become far less forgiving later on.

13:36 Doom Eternal
2:30:46 Undertale (Genocide)
5:23:34 Undertale (Hard Mode)
Stream I did on May 17, 2023 finishing Doom Eternal and the Genocide run of Undertale I started back in 2020. Doom Eternal is finally out of the way. The final boss is neat, but the excessive amounts of arena rooms in the final level is kinda jarring and it made the chat and me get pretty intense about this game.
After the game was done, I decided to go back to the Undertale run I did back in 2020 that I never finished, and actually managed to finish it!
The last bit of the stream was me doing a Hard Mode run of Undertale, but it got cut off because of me running out of hard drive space. Yes, that happened again!

28:18 The Sims 2
2:52:11 Tiny Life
Stream we did on May 12, 2023 playing The Sims 2 and trying out Tiny Life. Unfortunately on this stream, our family dog passed away. Includes a test of Tiny Life, the first Sims clone that can actually be played. I forgot to say any conclusions about the game, but it's a game that indeed has potential with some further polish, improvements and more content. Maybe not going to be the game that's finally going to dethrone The Sims 4, but it's certainly headed in a good direction and being a nice, more gameplay-focused version of The Sims 4 with a bit of a nostalgia coat with the blocky graphics and Sims 1 aesthetics.

Stream I did on May 11, 2023 finishing Rise of the Tomb Raider. I compensated for the shorter Tomb Raider streams recently by going a bit longer and actually finished it! This last bit of the game was quite enjoyable, actually!

Stream I did on May 10, 2023 playing Doom Eternal. At this point the game has become an arena shooter, which is sad, but it's still enjoyable, which is nice. I was hoping to finish the game on this stream, but I couldn't get to that point. I first played the soundtrack for Kirby's Dream Course and then the Spyro the Dragon one.

Stream we did on May 5, 2023 playing The Sims 2. This was kind of an improvised thing since I didn't really plan for anything to happen in the game, but it had some very wild moments like me adopting my own children and us becoming older than our parents. It also includes me discussing Kick.

Stream I did on May 4, 2023 trying out an Atari 65XE. This machine has been part of the household since before I was born, and was given to my older brother when he was a kid. I had not used this machine in over 20 years by the time I did this stream, and it just sat in storage gathering dust and grime for all that time. Since I don't have any accessories for it, I couldn't load any games, so I just resorted to typing example programs on Atari BASIC while trying very hard to keep up with the chat.

Stream we did on April 28, 2023 playing The Sims 2. This is the second part of the stream. The first part was pretty short. I had to restart the stream due to having the wrong setup going on. This stream was quite fun, and we got to finally get the band together and snap a lot of screenshots from it!

Stream we did on April 28, 2023 playing The Sims 2. This is the first bit of that stream, in which I completely forgot to change my setup to accommodate for the resolution The Sims 2 runs on, so I had to end it, change my setup, and restart. Not much happened during this bit of the stream.

Stream I did on April 27, 2023 playing Rise of the Tomb Raider. This was yet another shorter stream due to me having to go out. It went a lot better than the previous RotTR stream and we made some pretty good progress.

Stream I did on April 26, 2023 playing Doom Eternal. This stream was pretty fun, the game was a bit challenging on this stream, but nothing I couldn't manage. For this, we played Musak in the background, and the contrast was hilarious!

Stream we did on April 21, 2023 playing The Sims 2. This was a pretty nice stream! I started showing a work in progress of the Deb's visit video, and then jumped into the game, mainly making a cat and a dog, and trying to get them under control, with actually successful results!

Stream I did on April 19, 2023 playing Doom Eternal. This was still not as bad as the previous stream in terms of the game being annoying, but still had a couple of segments that were kind of out there. Following the suggestion of a couple of chat members, I played music from Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and decided to make it a thing to play unfitting music while going through Doom Eternal, makes it more fun!

Stream we did on April 7, 2023 playing The Sims 2. This was the stream in which the oven laptop finally died for good. It will be forever remembered. We did this stream with Deb during out first anniversary together, and as such we did activities in-game related to dating and getting married and stuff! It was a pretty nice stream! Oh yeah, and Deb became a witch, lost her hair and got green skin!

Stream I did on April 5, 2023 playing Doom Eternal. Well, unfortunately it seems that Doom Eternal didn't improve on the shortcomings I felt from 2016 as much as I hoped it did. Still liking it more than 2016 though. This was stream #369, so I just played some dumb "sexy" music in repeat while I played the game. In hindsight, it seemed it was too quiet for most of the stream so you can't even hear it, so yeah.

Stream I did on March 29, 2023 starting Doom Eternal. This was the first official stream I did after a two week break, and it was quite needed, I came back a lot more refreshed. I didn't expect to enjoy Doom Eternal so much, but I did, it's a lot of fun!

Stream we did on March 31, 2023 playing The Sims 2. This was a far milder Sims 2 stream than the previous one. We started the stream talking about conservative grifters and alpha males, in-game, we went to Takemizu Village, learned how to teleport, laughed at the dorky MIDIs I have and then drank a shitload of Elixir of Life. There, a summary so you don't waste five hours of your life watching this.

Stream I did on March 30, 2023 starting Rise of the Tomb Raider. So, my PC isn't handling this game as gracefully as I hoped it did and there quite a few hiccups due to performance issues with my graphics card. The game is actually enjoyable, and I'm liking it more than 2013 so far!

Stream I did on March 10, 2023 playing The Sims 2. This time we showcased the Troubled Directions sketch that we did with Deb and Spence, an idea we had for a long time! This was an extremely lengthy stream, but with a lot of fun stuff happening! We got to go on vacation to Twikkii Island and Three Lakes! For some reason we ended up running out of things to do on Three Lakes so things started to drag near the end of the stream. Either way, lots of crazy stuff, as usual!

Stream I did on March 9, 2023 finishing Tomb Raider 2013 and trying to start Rise of the Tomb Raider. This, unlike the other TR2013 streams, was quite more active, and I got to finish the game, finally. I tried to jump straight into Rise of the Tomb Raider for the technical difficulties said no. I spent the rest of the stream tweaking graphics settings trying to find a sweet spot between the game not looking like absolute garbage and running smoothly on the stream. I also tried Doom Eternal to see if that worked correctly.

Stream I did on March 4, 2023 playing StarCraft skirmishes with my brother. This was a special Saturday stream in which we just enjoyed ourselves playing some StarCraft games against the PC. This stream had a special feature that let people change the screen that would show on the stream, my brother's or mine. My brother's PC didn't look as good though since it was captured through S-video instead of VGA, but still, it's a pretty neat system that I intend to improve in the future as it was quite improvised. We got our ass kicked quite a bit, we kicked ass quite a bit, we watched ToastiiBear drink a gross smoothie, we opened a box with a merch item my brother brought from my store, the game collapsed on us and it was a great time!
