Of all the Doom 3 campaign projects I've seen, this one looks the most complete, and the closest to delivering an updated version of the classic Doom 1/2 gameplay we know and love. The indoor environments are clearly much larger and more open, and there are even many outdoor and Hell environments in the works.

That looks pretty nifty.  I'll have to keep an eye on this one.  :doom_thumb:

The potential looks like it's there.  I assume I'll see an update here once it's done.

Checked in on this mod yesterday and found a cool Arachnotron pic:

Apparently the mod is still alive and being worked on, though a playable release still hasn't happened. The devs have chimed in since Doom 4's release to explain how their version of Doom will be different:

Quote
Our type of “old school” is a very different breed than the type encountered in today’s “old school”. Yes, there are similarities; We too have upped the action, speed and gore, but not to the extreme lengths seen in the new Doom game. Our levels are built for exploration, progression and environmental puzzles. These are our main qualities. Phobos is closer to games like Half-Life or Dark Forces/Jedi Knight in spirit. Just like Classic Doom, these games are types of First Person Shooters that have all but vanished. We truly are a different kind of oldschool.

There are also a couple tiny clips of in-game footage and some new screens.

Awesome.  Glad to see we're not the only old-school mod still stuck in development hell kicking.  :doom_thumb:
