Howdy,
After first playing back in early 2006/late 2005 (I really can't remember, sorry!), I saw the Cyberdemon once before I stopped playing for... well, some odd reason. I don't remember, truthfully. Anyway, about a week and a half ago, I find myself craving a roguelike, and I am reminded of Doom RL. I get my hands on it, and today, after 36 hours and 56 minutes and 135 marine corpses spread across Phobos (some even on the surface when I got bitter and decided to emo-rage after losing the health packs), I have finally slain the Cyberdemon.
This game I have to say I was silly lucky - got my hands on the Railgun and the Plasma Rifle in the armory, basically three shot the Shambler with the aforementioned, and ripped my way down to hell where I stumbled upon a Revenant's launcher that I used to bombard the hell out of Mr. Cyberdemon with when standing safely around a corner. I got awfully close to death when I stopped taking it seriously, trying to go up front against two Mancubi aided by an Arch Vile... followed directly by the same. Again. On a slightly higher level I got knocked down to 8% health from one lone Mancubus and had my armor ruined, but luckily I had enough Health Packs to last a life time. Well, so I thought, until the aforementioned Arch Vile/Mancubi packs.
Anyway, it's nothing spectacular by any means - but here is the mortem. Rawr.
