Doom: the Flop Ages

doom eternal

released during covid when everyone was stuck at home

looks really good while also performing extremely well

well received since it played differently from a lot of other games at the time

dark ages

released during a recession where everything is way too fucking expensive already

raise the price even more

force meme traycing so even less people are able to play your game

looks just like doom eternal but runs at 1/4th of the framerate

casualize the gameplay to appeal to even more outside audiences

why are these faggot corporations like this? why can't we have good things? till when is this "MONEY GO UP NUMBER GO UP MORE MORE MORE MORE" mentality gonna collapse on itself?

do the sales schizos follow the same script every game release?

shit, didn't know Doom 2016 was launched during covid!?!?!

Which script? Making you seethe?

End of an era?

I just want more DOOM 2016...

nuDooms gayness has reached criticals mass, the house of cards is collapsing

forced RT is a shot in the foot when 40% of PC playerbase is still on GTX or integrated GPUs

ok chud, stop with the doomposting

I think Id is most certainly done with nu-Doom for the foreseeable future either way. Dark Ages will get its gay DLCs that will put Doom slayer in the 2016 coffin for the timeskip from Dark Ages, erasing the connection to Doom64
Either way I'm glad they are putting it to rest. After Eternal they clearly lack any innovative idea that can be implemented into fun gameplay

I didn't even know this game existed until like 2 weeks ago also 120AUD fuck that

Boring overpriced 10h slop which requires a new pc doesn't sell.

Shocking.

Shillbros... we got too cocky.

turret section in a DOOM game

press RMB to awesome

this is embarassing

I genuinely think it might be the Mick Gordon thing, all of the magic and excitement was gone when people learned how much they screwed him over and there was little hype for the new one

World financial crisis was 2008 and SARS was like 2010, nevermind gamergate, so yeah the industry was only was just fixing itself in time for 2016 and those numbers are going to get smoked in a couple hours anyway.

People can spend $50 and get a game like Oblivion or BG3 that they can easily put hundreds of hours in. Or they can spend $70 on a shooter that they'll get 20 hours out of. I really don't think the somewhat slower reload speed, open maps, or other minor gripes are holding the sales back -- it's the value proposition that's probably the bigger issue.

Damn. Poorfags catching some gentle strays in this thread.

Doom Eternal was the endpoint for this kind of autism. People are getting tired of the slayer

We want the halocall of duty audience.

All this happened before, and it will happen again.

A return to form.

The enshittification of DOOM

People were fine paying $100 for 5-day early access for Starfield.

9 years ago

im sorry what

release a game that runs like shit if you didn't cough up at least 1k for a gpu

game sells like shit

truly shocking

denuvo

it's actually more surprising that 2016 has so many players compared to eternal

reddit spacing is a funko pop consuming retard

it’s just way too expensive lol I’ll get it on sale

parries your shit thread

heh

For 80 euros I can drink myself to coma almost every weekend. Games have reached a price point where going outside and dating women of all people is cheaper than playing video games.

nice drivers

Doom Eternal was the endpoint

What the fuck are you talking about? Dark Ages is inspired by classic doom and the opposite of Eternal
It's all about ammo pickups, slow weapon swap, strafing and more
It doesn't even have glory kills, modules and alt fire

I hope, I just want Half-Life clones back that just try to tell a cool story while shooting stuff instead of being giant memes on purpose

it's funny how quickly the tables turned and now nvidia has the garbage drivers

and more

Hiding a lot behind this.

Yes. Shooters have fallen.
The only good genre left is Soulslikes now

Dark Ages is inspired by classic doom

???

Kill yourself casualnigger

issues are only in 1 game

Man i totally remember the glory kills in classic room, the turret sections and one enemy for room. That was totally awesome for an ancient gamer like me.

yes flying a giant dragon and bombing demons was a huge part of what made classic doom so popular

Check Youtube videos like HITLESS MASTER LEVEL ULTRA NIGHTMARE DIFFICULTY.

The player uses a 3 button scope macro.

Well that was disappointing.

here comes the cope

lmao

doom tard thinks his shit isn't casualslop

el oh el

It's genuinely shit, it got casualized hard and the combat feels extremely fucking sluggish, also the music is extremely fucking quiet, but i consider that a positive since it sounds like generic action movie metal, it feel like they tried to combine 2016 and eternal, but instead we got the worst of both worlds

naruhodo

your taste is shit and you are gay

1 game.

Nvidia drivers crashed my Windows last week to a point I had to Restore. Its not the end of the world but holy fuck I'm not going to reinstall every single piece of software every time I update my drivers.

Yes it has

melee attacks

no vertical movement

no dash

no alt fire

12 billion shotgun shells

Dark Ages is objectively a return to form
If you don't like it, is because classic Doom sucks ass and so does Gay Ages

it's on game pass, sweetie

there are plenty "it's also on gamepass" games to compare to, dummy.

someone post the webms of le epic doom gameplay where theyre spazzing around swapping between weapons constantly

I really think they killed the nuseries when they pissed off mick gordon. All of the meme hype was directly tied into his music and without it the whole thing falls apart.

I'm on stage 6 now. When does it get good ?

Did doom have a shield?

refund before its too late

when you reach the uninstall button

After all this time, Ultrakill still has two layers left to finish.

But it took me 2 hours to get here. If there's only 22 levels then that's 4 more hours to finish the game.

Also the green light parrying is pure uninspired dogshit.

The first thing id did when they had the technology was make vehicles for games that are a direct successor classic doom, Quake and Rage. Those gimmicks meant to hide shallow and repetitive gameplay were implemented as soon as id tech 4 was built, so they are not distant from the game design philosophy of classic doom

Id had impeccable performance for Eternal, it was extremely optimized and ran wonderfully
What the FUCK happened?

This game reeks of a messy development, i genuinely feel that this was Quake reboot that got retooled into a Doom game

lmao 2 cat!!

Pajeet check on the credits?

Semi open levels + mandatory ray tracing
Also higher number of fodder enemies to give the player the illusion of power

forced meme tracing, we need to pump those nvidia stocks up

2x price difference between the games. And the hardware required to run them.

i genuinely feel that this was Quake reboot that got retooled into a Doom game

RIP Matthew Kane

Was it really? Doom Eternal had GTX970 as recommended GPU and it would drop below 60 in messier fights.

this was Quake reboot that got retooled into a Doom game

Everyone knows that.

Well lads, DOOM is shit but at least Killing Floor 3 looks much better.

It's more than that. Whether someone liked DE or not, it is widely acknowledged the slayer wank MCU story enshittification of Doom was not liked, and here is Shart Ages quadrupling down on the lore that everyone hated.

2016 was praised for shitting on the story and keeping the few story bits it forced short and sweet, but liked the optional bits that said Doomguy had become the Slayer to the demons of hell who didn't know how to handle "Man to angry to die." It was a nice nod to the older games, and pumped up how bad ass Doomguy was without getting stupid. But Hugo took that mean, "Oh shit, the players clearly want this to be like capeshit MCU slop! Yeah! He's no longer just the Slayer to the demons, now he is The Slayer™©® to the entire universe! And Sam Hayden will be Satan! And Vega will be God! Yeah! Borderlands eat your heart out!" And the fact is no one wants that. It's stupid. It's cringe. It's retarded. It's gay. It's faggy. It's lame.

It stinks of poojeet

2016 was praised for shitting on the story and keeping the few story bits it forced short and sweet

The game with unskippable cutscenes and long dialogues?

Pretty much this, just blatant flanderization.
It started as tongue in cheek wink wink nudge nudge fanservice, remember the rip and tear too angry to die memes? but went out of hand immediately.

another thread about the newest FOTM AAA goyslop

outside of being "anonymous" and being able to write nigger, how does this place differ from r*ddit? It's full of normalfags

stop talking about things!!!!!!!!!!!!

im sure there are plenty of xitter threads up, crawl back into one faggatron

I'm just not going to pay $120 for a video game.

This month you can buy:
You can buy $50 French JRPG
You can buy $50 Elder Scrolls game
Or you can buy $80 single player fps game

outside of being "anonymous" and being able to write nigger, how does this place differ from r*ddit?

More samefagging and false flags

Music in Doom (2016) and Doom Eternal: Mick Gordon

Music in Doom: The Dark Ages: Finishing Move Inc.

Holy fucking soullessness. They literally got a corporate entity to replace Mick.
