You’re only missing out if you enjoy soulslikes. If you don’t, you’re just going to be miserable

I would argue that someone who completed Doom on nightmare is somewhat into the masochism of the soulslike experience

They are fundamentally different games, Doom is all about movement and target prioritization while fromsoft games are focused on one-on-one fights that you die in 3 hits and your movement is very slow even on a light character.

That is true if you look at mechanics. I was referring more to the actual gameplay loop and linearity of gameplay, which is very similar between the two.
