Doom: Yellow Filter Versus Unfiltered Comparison

June 19, 2015 by Ryan Parreno

Thanks to Imgur user Andritsu, we have an idea of how much work Id placed in the game, and then hid away.

Did you like the reveal for Doom? What if we told you the game has a glaring secret right in front of you?

Id Software has put a yellow filter over Doom, perhaps to help create an atmosphere of a hellish landscape. It certainly helps create a mood when you watch the game footage.

However, there is an irony to this decision, as you will see below. Imgur user Andritsu has collected a comparison gallery showing how the game screenshots look like without the yellow filter, via some simple color balance adjustments.

The end result? The game looks lively and beautiful. If anything, Doom now looks more like a popular contemporary it had, the more frivolous Serious Sam. It also looks a little less flat, as the shading and color effects give a better sense of three dimensionality.

it's certainly a shame that Id put so much work in the game, only to hide it away. Perhaps they could have done more to make the graphics look more 3D under the yellow filter, but I'm sure many agree with Andritsu that it looks better without the filter.

So, what do you think? Does Doom look better with or without the yellow filter? Should Id and Bethesda offer fans the choice to remove the filter? Share your thoughts with us in the comments. Doom will be releasing on 2016 on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Microsoft Windows, and GNU/Linux.
