Checkpoints, of course, are the worst thing about the game. by Ice Cream Jonsey 05/14/2016, 3:11pm PDT
This is not an argument we need to go through again but Doom's system of loading from a checkpoint is a bit lacking.

You have a UI option that reads "Load From Checkpoint." You do not get a screenshot of where you will be loading from and it's really stupid to think that people are noticing a 10 pixel spinning circle in the upper-left hand corner of the screen to know when we hit the latest checkpoint. More to the point, you don't know where you will start if you exit.
