Nah I can just change both packages to ask for the original game files on launch

I know it's piracy thing since they are still registered I just wanted to use the archived files and make a convenient package that will just download it and play but I don't mind having to update the launch script to ask for it.

Yes, this package needs to change to use the archives with (Demo) in the name. And the doom2 package probably just needs to go, cause that game never had shareware or demo or anything as far as I know.

They are but this package is using the original doom files that have been archived but I could change it to ask or it if it is to much of a issue even if it is a really old game.

checked the PKGBUILD cause I was curious and, I think DOOM and DOOM2 are still very much licensed and people still need to buy the original game and use those IWADS. Going to assume the doom2 AUR package has the same thing especially since there was no shareware for DOOM2.
