The Doomguy of the early '90s is a purebred Byronic hero, with dissatisfaction and a sneer stapled to his otherwise tolerable, chiseled face. More importantly, the Doomguy is alone.
Nowhere is this more apparent than in Total Chaos, solo developer Sam Prebble's total conversion Doom 2 mod from 2018 – which publishers Apogee Entertainment and Infogrames have recently released as a standalone survival horror experience. The occasional FPS turns heroes into helpless ghosts, and while I'm worried about the same thing happening to me, I'm also convinced Total Chaos is the only game worth playing this winter.
