no shareware for doom 2
'''Shareware''' is a software marketing concept where an incomplete or time-limited version of a program is released to entice people into buying the full version. [[Doom]] and [[Heretic]] both have shareware versions, each containing only the first [[:Category:Episodes|episode]] of their respective games ([[Knee-Deep in the Dead]] and [[City of the Damned]]), making nine [[level]]s each.
 
Part of the reason [[Doom II]] was not given a shareware release, according to [[John Carmack]], was that "A lot of people consider themselves to have "finished DOOM" when they just finished the shareware episode."[http://www.doomworld.com/interviews/int7.shtml]
