In development since 2010, the 18th Cacoward winner and Moddb 2012 MOTY Editors Choice of Creativity Award Brütal Doom takes Doom into a whole new level. It makes the game much more violent than before. There's much more blood, plus it adds unique gibs, death animations, dismemberments, headshots, executions, fire and explosion particles, flares, and much more.
The whole world becomes more real and interactive.You can kick severed limbs and heads (and sometimes, use it to activate some traps in the map earlier, or even kick them against enemies to do some damage), you can shoot enemies' heads to deal more damage (and cause more gruesome deaths) you can destroy most things in the the scenario (trees, lamps, hanging bodies, etc), you can paint the floor, the walls, and even the ceiling with blood, you can push the explosive barrels to make traps, or grab them and use like an explosive weapon, you can silently take down enemies from behind and perform stealth kills, the chainsaw actually cuts the enemies in two. When you find the berserk pack and get super strength, you can perform cinematic executions and RIP AND TEAR your foes with your bare hands. Some enemies will scream in anguish and try to crawl away when near death, and they can be used as human shields, and much, much more.
Everything in Brutal Doom is extremely intense. Everything sounds louder, looks bigger, moves faster, and hits harder. You can even fell the impact of explosions. Enemies are harder and smarter, and weapons and explosions are much louder. Your weapons have been upgraded to a deadly arsenal, completely throwing the vanilla Doom's "progressive weapon system" through the window. Every weapon is powerful and have it's pros and cons, a a weapon will never be outclassed when you find a new weapon, but only find a different use for different situations, making Brutal Doom more balanced and more strategic than Vanilla gameplay. You have new abilities too. With any weapon selected, you can press Q (default bind) to kick enemies at close range and send them away. Every new feature and weapon is cautiously balanced, and added in a way that makes sense in the universe of Doom. Many of the features can also be disabled/enabled to provide the best personal experience possible.
Brütal Doom will make the good an old Doom have a new and fresh look. It will give you a reason to play all the Ultimate Doom, Doom 2, and Final Doom levels again. This mod also works with almost every megawad and map pack around. Take a breath, and prepare to RIP AND TEAR HUGE GUTS!!!!!

Brutal Doom v21 Gold was released on May 17 2019, but I only had the time to make a trailer for it just now.
I was unable to show all the new features of this update on this trailer which plays a 3 minute song by Andrew Hulshult. If I were to make a trailer listing every new feature that has been added from v20b to v21 I would probably need to use a Dream Theather album. So make sure you check the changelog, and visit the other videos on my channel, and other news articles on Moddb related to this mod.
Extermination Day (formerly known as Hell on Earth Starter Pack) is not finished yet, might take some more months. By the time Eday comes out, you can also expect a v21b release of Brutal Doom to fix bugs that might be found on this version.
For right now, I will focus my efforts on a new version of the "monsters only" edition.

Brütal Doom clearly deserves a 10, for several reasons: First, it has been developed almost single handedly by a goodwill individual, who clearly has shown the outmost dedication and perseverance through 2 years of continued development, besides from being always open-minded and patient, hearing suggestions and criticism and enduring ludicrous amounts of flame-wars on some of the forums where the project was being discussed. Such professionalism must be taken in note. Second: the level of compromise…

I love this mod, my only complain is the god damn backblast of the rocket launcher that damages you, its really frustrating, the usability of the weapon drops like mad just because of it
if their is a wall or object behind you when you use it, it will damage you also
Go to the settings and you can turn backblast off
First of all, very VERY great mod. Love that It adds more gorey, comedic, and more HD and advanced stuff to doom. However, I cant find any tutorials on how to actually mixed both Brutal Doom and the Metal Soundtrack both together In one game. I already know how to Install both separate, Its just that I dont know how to mix them both together. Could I get some help for my peanut sized brain? Sorry for the paragraph too.
K nvm, found It out, Just selecting both brutal doom and the soundtrack Into the exe worked.
Amazing work! Very compatible with many others mods. Congratulations for the great final product!
Three will be no final version of Brutal Doom? Sarge can do what he wants but its sad that he abandon his most famous project and forgot about BD fans.
It's not abandoned, it's just on hold.
The mod is already pretty completed, I have been saying for years that v21 was going to be the "final" version in terms of adding features, there is no need to rush another update. Any other updates from now on will be just quality of life/optimization.

I think most players including myself appreciate this mod and the amount of work and personal time put into this. However there will always be the few who just cannot accept this is complete and will always want more. These same few are also unable or are unwilling to do modding themselves and do not appreciate what is provided for free.
All the best,
Propably many players is just curious about possible final iteration of this impressive mod and no one denies huge amount of work that Seargent put in this project - as you seem to think. Anyway what was the purpose of your comment? You are waiting for medal or something?
I think you have my meaning mixed up. I wrote a few players do not appreciate while most do. There are comments popping up over the place with demands and how something must have been abandoned like it sort of has a sell by date.
As for that medal. I only want it if it a yummy chocolate medal. You need to chill :)
You are right, a lot of players propably waiting for some last release before Sergant put all of his efforts in Brutal Fate which only proofs how remarkable BD is. Sorry for my bad english and harsh words toward you in my previous comment.
No worries, it's all good.
Absolutely right. I consider Brutal Fate to be an evolution of Brutal Doom rather than a entirely seperate entity. A testament to the man and the mod.
Will you release the Extermination Day map pack soon? I´m very excited to see how the definitive map pack looks!
(buried)
im not surprised if there isn't a final version.
he's abandoned brutal doom in favour of Brutal fate.
Both of which are exactly the same, the only difference is he can monopolise on brutal fate, on top of his patrons from brutal doom. I wouldn't be surprised if this comment got deleted. It sure as hell did on his youtube video.
Well, thanks for informing me of Brutal Fate, wasn't aware that it existed. Brutal Doom is an excellent mod that truly has breathed new life into Doom and its genre of FPS, so having another game like it, but where the developer actually gets some money for his time and effort, seems like kind of a nice deal, don't you think? Also it might help spark interest in the genre, overall, now that we have Wrath: Aeon of Ruin to pave the way with the Quake/Hexen -style of FPS's and Dusk/Iron Maiden going in more of a Redneck Rampage/Duke Nuke'm -style of gameplay, I for one am happy to see a Doom-like game released.
