What age did you start DOOM?

10 or 11, I picked up DOOM 2016 on gamepads, didn't play much of the campaign, but had fun in snapmap. Too bad the snapmap servers went down 😔.

At no point has snapmap ever been taken down.

Huh, when I try to play it on my XBOX it always says that it's offline.

Checked and it's working on mine. Check that UGC permissions haven't been blocked (it's an AOE page but it's the same settings), and if you're sure everything is allowed then it may be that you need to have an active Gold subscription, as Snapmaps interface seems to not separate it from multiplayer.

Im damn curious

i started when I was 9 that's all ima say

I start playing Doom when i was 22, but that was not my first FPS, it was Heretic with a friend on his brother's PC.

Eight. 

13 years old. It was 2009 and I was going through what was by far the worst year of education (primary or secondary or tertiary) in my life. I remember fiddling around with Doom Builder back then and besides of playing Doom 1 and Doom 2 with ZDoom, I'd also play some custom maps like these ones:

They were already quite old by then but I downloaded them from a Hispanic community called Arcades 3D. I felt that despite the dated graphics and such, the game still was capable of a great deal of immersion and it helped me through those tough times.

Pretty sure I was 6. Thankfully every game demo CD had Shareware Doom on it back then, cause I never ever saw the original in a store until Ultimate Doom the year after its release.

when I was 16 or 17, on Steam.

13. I played it in early 1994, on a friend's 486 PC and my jaw must still be there somewhere.
