This game is like, critical mass of everything wrong with the modern gaming industry

This game is like, critical mass of everything wrong with the modern gaming industry

looks the same as Eternal, runs 100% worse

can't turn off ray-tracing because devs are too lazy to do baked in lighting anymore

difficulty editing and accessibility out the wazoo

convoluted storyline instead of "angry guy kills demons"

It's like they aren't even trying to sell copies.

Runs 100% worse

Dude I fucking WISH it ran 100% worse than Doom Eternal, at least then I could run the game at ~70 FPS. On 4K with DLSS on a fucking 5080 I'm getting 50-70 FPS in the opening level

Its very strange, I dont think this was DEI or woke consultants, I think the devs in charge really have this shit taste and this is the game they wanted to make.
Oh well back to Doom wads

You forgot to mention the parryslop mechanics that's in every game now

minecraft started this way

24,734 In-Game

looks like people are not willing to pay 80 yuros for single player FPS games.

Funny how two of the best selling games of this year both cost 50 dollars,

If a game has parry I dont play it, its that simple
It is not a fun mechanic

To be fair to this shitty game, I'm playing on gamepass and I'm sure a lot of other people are too

I would never buy this slop for 70 bucks, not in a billion years

youtube.com/watch?v=ddzUGWdxsyA
It's crazy how much better the game could have played with a simple menu option.

Wait, you can't turn off the parry slowdown?
Let me refund on steam real quick.

This game is like, critical mass

No that would be your body actually

implying you ever bought it

This is a checklist game from the publisher, with all their requirements based on marketing researches. It's bloated with useless stuff like the dragon or the mech.
It has little to no soul and it costs way too much for a 10-12 hour playthrough.

Has anyone noticed how console gamers aren’t complaining about performance at all? Obviously PS5 players are amazed they can play a game at all (since the PS5 had no games before this, TDA is the world’s first PS5 game). But this doesn’t make the PC Master Race look good. How else can we market the 5090 if it runs Doom worse than a PS5?

I'd gladly take a 20 hour game rich with content than a 100+ hour walking simulator like Expedition 33.

Every single member of the designer and programing staff is the same as the previous two. Crying about "MUH SOVL" at this point just shows what a zoomie cuck you always were. Nothing post Doom 3 is Doom.

Consoles don't complain because they don't know any better. They love playing games at low and at 50fps.

I assume it's because on PC they just said

let's flip the ray-tracing switch on

whereas on PS5 they had to create ray-tracing specific to that system's capabilities

but has anyone actually played this on PS5? Does it run at 60 fps with any sort of stability? How's it look?

Doom Eternal uses full dynamic lighting, not baked.

As someone who has fucked around a bit with the tools, you're full of shit.

Doom is slop for fat redditors, and redditors dont like christianity

Doom Eternal uses full dynamic lighting, not baked. Which means raytracing is doubly lazy

Dynamic lighting isn't the same as raytracing though.

every game on ps5 when set to performance mode falls down to 480p 35-40fps instead of 720p 20-30fps of quality mode and consoleniggers eat it up

Why do I have to tune the difficulty, isn't that the game designer's job?

lol i saw that dragon shit and i have 0 interest in this game now
literally 0
microsoft literally turns diamonds to turds lmao
2016 and eternal were fun
this is doom 3 but uh
reddit

Bad story that's just padding the length

Ruined doomguy by turning him into whatever they did

useless mech and dragon parts, literal mobile gameplay

parry mechanism ruined by the fucking slowdown. The parry itself is so fucked (and arguably far from fun) with all the simon says tells.

music is generic (it's probably the least of all the problems though)

$90 / $110 game for 12h gameplay

It's not just "doom" not being "doom", it's just an overrated overpriced game.

It's actually incredible how parrying has filtered thr lifelong noobs from modern gaming

I deserve to play on normal!

The fuck do you mean "filtered?"

The parrying in this game is so easy and brainless that it's impossible to fail and even then you can tune it down and make it way easier

Its an objectively bad mechanic
It makes you passive and you have to await the moment to press the button, its borderline a QTE
It reduces depth, complexity, alternate combat scenarios,
Its only in games so that shitters feel good when they press the button the game told them to press

lol no loser
its like desert treasure 2 bosses and raids in osrs
its not shit content because its hard
its shit content cuz it expects you to be perfect
fuck that reddit shit this hobby went to fucking shit im out
might as well just off myself videogames was the last fun thing

>$90 / $110 game

According to Anon Babble, it runs at 480p 30 FPS. According to Digital Foundry, it runs at 1080-1440 upscaled to 4K and 60 FPS. Experts on Anon Babble claim this is false since it occasionally dips to 55-ish FPS, and therefore it must be running worse than an OG Xbox from 2003. But we still have analysis analyzing this.

Rumor also has it that consoles render “fake frames”, which means you are playing a fake game. We are awaiting FCC action regarding the sale of fake games.

Right, because PC is better. But we can’t use a 5070 or 5060ti or anything lower, we must use a $1,000 GPU. Do you see where your logic falls apart? Gaming is by far the most expensive hobby in the world if you want to comply with the rules.

In a time when higher refresh rate displays are becoming more and more common, even 60fps is unacceptable.

I played this game just fine on a $300 GPU.

I bet most people are playing on gaypass

I have a PS5 but I'm still not going to buy it on there even if it does run better

have to buy the game instead of gamepass, for one (70 bucks 10 hours lul)

have to play a single-player FPS with a fucking controller

Yeeesh.

Right, correct. So we’re now switching to HIGHER than 60 FPS as the goal, even though previously you slammed the PS5 for being at 20 FPS. Now even a regular PC rig isn’t good enough. And, let me guess, if we don’t have a $3,000 beast machine, we aren’t gaming correctly?

You realize that 90% of people here grew up with an N64 and Game Boy and didn’t think twice about it? You’re promoting self-flagellation.

It's Microsoft's magic touch
It makes dev studios rot inside

convoluted storyline

fake frames

DLSS upscaling

sub-100 FPS

You didn’t play the actual game.

n-no im just too good at it

t.played e33 on "tell me a story" mode

So we’re now switching to HIGHER than 60 FPS as the goal

Considering that's what this console gen promised, it's not switching to anything.

even though previously you slammed the PS5 for being at 20 FPS

Where? When?

Now even a regular PC rig isn’t good enough

I ran the game better than consoles on my shitbox lmao

You realize that 90% of people here grew up with an N64 and Game Boy and didn’t think twice about it?

Yeah, because they had no other choice.

people would rather do that than pay $80 for a mid game

tbf how many games have better flying mechanics than sm64?

Have modders imported TDA maps and enemies to Eternal yet?

Still better than what you got on PS5.

Because consoleniggers are used to games running like shit

Why would anyone? They're all built around the shield and aren't designed for vertical maps.

debra wilson

That's that hideous bug eyed nigger chick, right?

It’s not about the PS5, it’s about compliance. We hate the PS5 because it doesn’t comply with what real gaming is. Likewise, playing sub-100 FPS with fake frames and fake resolution also isn’t in compliance. See

Sure smells like curry in here.

It's about PC players having options and not having to deal with what they're given and how they're given. It's quite literally about consolefags not having standards.

Your hivemind shill clones () are seething that the PS5 is allegedly playing at N64 frame rates. Now not even 60 FPS is enough. We’re going from 20 FPS on console to 120+ on PC, and if you tell this to any “PCMR” acolyte, they’ll eat it up as fact. Just don’t mention that not even the 5090 can get over 60 FPS on this game.

Sure smells like baseless racism injected into a video game discussion. Jeet saar! DESIGNATED

oblivion remastered

"ew"

doom eternal remastered called the dark ages

"wooooooooow"

Who's "we"

Now not even 60 FPS is enough.

It hasn't been for a decade now. The Series X promised 4k and 120fps, and now games can't even deliver last gen's broken promise(1080p/60fps)

game dev here a sign that a company is a woke mess is a glut of accessibility options because that and GUI design is where they send all the DEI hires

HOW IS SO MUSIC SO GENERIC???????? HOW DID THEY MESSED UP THIS BAD????

Who are you quoting?

if you tell this to any “PCMR” acolyte, they’ll eat it up as fact.

The most ardent defender of PC on the internet is always a poor with a hand-me-down shitbox that's busy shitposting online about consoles because he can't run any games on his toaster and is too poor to afford a console either.
People with high end PCs that can run this crapware instead complain that the game itself is shit slop and not worthy of defending.

€80

dirt cheap in shitskin regions

You don’t have many “options” when even a 5090 can’t run this game well. Your options are to insert “fake frames” and “fake resolution” into your game that adds input lag, or to have a slideshow.

The “PC Master Race” will go through any length to prevent people from playing games how they want to play them. Even if the “master race” method is objectively worse. Look at the catalog and see all the screeching. Look on the Steam forums. Nearly every single complaint is about performance.

And Microsoft is essentially jeet central at this point. Go figure

What the fuck is this Spyro gameplay in a boomershooter franchise??

How many times do I have to say that consolefags lack standards? You'll happily play a 60fps game because that's buttery smooth compared to the past 20 years you've played games at "cinematic" framerates.

wow a 3k pc runs the latest sloppa better than a $500-$700 console. i am impressed.

most mentally stable max account-er

This game is piss easy and treats you like a fucking sub 80 IQ retard. It feels like it was made for toddlers

Monster hunter wilds is the same, looks the same as World that ran fine on my fucking base PS4 and Wilds runs like shit on a beefy PC. Denuvo is such a cancer on the gaming industry, why am I being punished for buying a game cause some fuckers pirated your old games? Fuck off

They fired Mick Gordon after they fucked him over during the development of eternal. His soundtrack was literally the reason 2016 was so successful and no one can tell me otherwise. If it had the same generic music as dark ages no one would have cared about it.

Here I am trying out Doom2016 as of right now, because I got curious enough to pirate it over the whole prerelease habub.
LITERALLY HOW THE FUCK DID THE ENTIRE WESTERN WORLD PSYOP ITSELF INTO BELIEVING THE REBOOT IS GOOD IN ANY WAY
HOW THE FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

It's absolute trash:

obvious console shooter, weapon viewmodels take up 40% of the screen regardless of the FoV

floaty Source-like movement that doesn't fit the photorealistic gritty artstyle of the game

it's also constantly glitching despite LE FAST meme and clips over every single nook and cranny

0 weapon feedback when shooting enemies, they flinch 5 frames later with canned animations and their texture gets gory

nauseating map navigation, orthostatic view fucks with your eyes

dynamic soundtrack that doesn't know when or what to fucking play

pseudo out-of-bounds platforming for some collectibles

horrific stuttering when the engine spawns enemies behind you in enclosed spaces, reliably triggered manually

gordon's soundtrack compressed to shit

tryhard super-high fidelity voice acting that doesn't fit scenes nor the setting

I could go on, how the fuck did a game more flawed than FPSs from 15 years ago become genre redefining?

Holy shit that looks good

Microsoft has yet to release a good game on gamepass. All the studios they acquire only create garbage and people still think gamepass is a good thing

Music sucks

Easy

349 bucks

Yeah, I'm thinking of skipping it. It's not even worth a pirate DL.

Uh, dude…are you sure you wanna go against Anon Babble, bro? E33 was on game pass and we all like that game.

the last 3 popular games were on gamepass

doom, 33, and oblivion remastered
and none of them are worth buying, all can be completed in a single month subscription window

that's a lot of money saved

that's a lot of money saved

you vill own nothing...

you don't own game on steam

Yeah that didn't bother me when I went to Blockbuster as a kid and it doesn't bother me now

It is retarded to own games you'll probably never play again.

Not a microsoft studios game

After the magic Mick Gordon did for 2016 and Eternal you think they'd give him a golden goose and unlimited budget and time. Bethesda and id are such ridiculous failures at even the most basic of product analysis.

Overrated OSTs, there's maybe 2-3 good tracks between the two games, the rest is noise

This.
This right here is what drives me fucking crazy.
This is how the suits that should have their heads roll for this absolute shit game will avoid consequences for their failure

well it looks like the market just won't support

no
shut the fuck up

I would pay that price for a game that made improvements to Doom 2016 or even Doom Eternal -- even though Eternal was on-rails it was at least fun.

Doom Dark Ages is fucking trash.
You made a trash game.
It has nothing to do with the market.
You made a car with square wheels because you're a fucking retard.
You suck at your job and you made a terrible product that so fucking bad nobody wants it even when they want that specific type of product.
The Doom IP is solid gold. You only get to this point through extreme neglect at a management/direction level. Fire them.

"Noise" is better than the garbage in Dark Ages.

Just don't be poor

Hulshult+Levy would have been better than what we got.

PS5 is everything bad on this damn industry, since UE5 was made with that shit ass console in mind

Could have saved $900 with a 9070xt and had better performance lmao

Doesn't matter, it takes one track to sell more copies than any trailer would

2 days "early access" for deluxe edition, in other words, the launch is paywalled

twitch drops

skins exclusive to hardware manufacturer and fucking pizza

denuvo

I hate modern gaming

Is your incel status sonys fault too?

The thing is that this will also happen when PS6 launches.
We could get some well optimized UE4 titles running easily at 60 fps, but no, they have to push that piece of shit lumen that smears the entire screen just as bad as poor TAA implementation

My leading local daily newspaper is calling it 5 stars and unironically "the best in 30 years"
Fucking slopsoomer shill critic

RT always being enabled is probably why the game is 60 gigs
Baked lighting is fucking expensive on storage.

Snoytranny angry after being exposed and calling others incel

Steamies like it why don't you?

I thought consoles were holding back gaming? Now the master race is crying about consoles being used as the base line?

i don't have to ocd cycle between 15 weapons to get health and ammo

this is a con

zoomies were a mistake.

Less fps is actually better here, because it limits the amount of frames you suffer through before uninstalling
t. 120(meme)frames at ultra nigger 1440p

Keep paying for overpriced hardware that doesn't even work correctly with the most popular engine on the market kek, I'll be playing Grand Theft Auto VI on my PS5 day 1

they swung too far in the other direction in TDA and weapon swapping is so fucking slow

I see that sonycvcks are raging over doom

I could go on,

Please dont...we already know about you shit taste.
Seriously why you think you whining matter?is all subjective shit and outright lies?
Try again.

The dragon and mech would’ve been fine if both carried the personality of the doom slayer - quick, aggressive, and violent but they completely botched it. And don’t get me started on that pointless lovecraft shit. It felt like Star Wars Episode 3 when the ending gets good and then you realize it was mostly because the old movies were good.

It needs a big patch and at least 10 hour DLC of quality ideas

it's so strange that pc only tards think they can shame console users into dumping their consoles for life when for the vast majority of people convenience is going to win every single time when given a choice. truly a pointless endeavor.

Jesus Fuck I just watched the first Dark Ages speedrun. Let me tell you, it is fucking miserable. There's no fast movement tech and almost no fighting. You just run past all enemies and activate the weapon wheel bullet time to phase through literally any wall.

PS4 and Xbone had pathetic CPUs.
PS5 and SeX/S actually had decent CPUs when they launched, but games are barely any different from stuff that was done during the 8th gen, but run a lot worse.

almost no fighting

Same goes for Eternal's any% speedruns. 100% Nightmare is where it's at.

The argument used to be that consoles are so weak that games were held back by having to run on them but now i‘m told that this game that runs at 60fps on console is apparently too demanding. How does this make any sense?

I'm clearly talking about UE games, dumbass

floaty Source-like movement that doesn't fit the photorealistic gritty artstyle of the game

tryhard super-high fidelity voice acting that doesn't fit scenes nor the setting

I'm not sure, would you be happy with high fidelity realistic or arcade? Those two sentences literally contradicts themselves, it makes you sound like a crybaby that wanna hate on everything

Still complaining about difficulty selections

Brown thread

This thread is about doom

UE5 mentioned here which was the post I first replied to

It is an issue when the devs are too lazy to set proper difficulty modes and expect players to adjust it with sliders instead. The dark ages on nightmare is easier than eternal on hurt me plenty. In general this game clearly cuts a lot of corners which i blame on gamepass because why would you put all that effort in when the game is just a glorified ad for a subscription service?

It's peak reddit doom

It's yet another "manly" game for low test faggots

Doom has always been easy since the first game, even Ultra Nightmare mode is easy. You are not special. Quit crying

B-But muh balance muh Design MUH CHALLENGE!


Shut up. I will NEVER let Anon Babble go on how much the Marauder filtered them. YOU are the reason why it exists. Because you refused to fight the marauder and kept bitching until they nerfed them. They nerfed Ancient Gods 1 too because of YOU people complaining about it being WAAH TOO HARD. Don't like it? Maybe you should have not acted like casuals. Wanna a challenge? Cry about it. You ruined it.

okay, yeah they're going to have to make an option to turn that shit off this looks 100x better.

This game is 90 bucks and look like it have some slow ass gameplay, who even gonna buy that shit, Bethesda managed to not fuck up only Skyrim and doom but now they fucked up Skyrim, Bethesda really suck

shills told me this was an optional toggle

what is the lore explanation for why some things are colored green and therefore 'parry'able by the shield ?

they're hella surgy

The price tag filtered everyone. The game bombed

Eternal had a rap trailer and sold more than this game

and the game has 2 biomes

>debra wilson

you've got to be fucking kidding me

what is wrong with 60fps? 60 is perfectly playable

She voices a white woman.

Eternal and this are both shit because there's too many made up rules breaking up the gameplay. You cant walk 5 feet without a new tutorial telling you to do this arbitrary thing to get 'x', because why...who fucking knows.

Can you skip those stupid turret/flying/mech sections in ng+

80$ games that look and play worse than 60$ games from even just a few years ago

Yeah that just about sums up the state of things.
The industry crash is probably never coming but I do wonder how long things can continue like this.

What NG+?

I watched some of the giant robot gameplay and it fucking shocked me.

You just stand there and mash punch on a target that has no hitreaction whatsoever until a fucking bar is filled, and then a tiny gun pops out and blue orbs explode the enemy with no impact or sfx. It legitimately looks unfinished, like some half-done kickstarter project.

Then it launched into a truly cringeworthy cutscene that I'm sure the writers felt was worthy of Game of Thrones.

elmostare.gif - 480x438, 2.42M

I just don't care for the DEI story. Otherwise it was a step down from Eternal but still okay. Like a 7/10 that is 6/10 if you factor in the absurd price tag.

nightmare.png - 1273x848, 1.22M

didn't eternal dlc have some huge mech too? i didn't play it.

debra wilson

Thanks, you’ve given me a reason not to buy this pile of horseshit

I turned off tutorials in Eternal before I even started playing, not once did I fail to understand a crucial mechanic.
I'll do the same for this game when I buy it on sale with all the DLC in year or two.

They’re so hung up on these games being a frickin badass power fantasy they forgot there’s meant to be an actual video game attached.
Doom turning into barely interactive cinematic shit is absolutely abhorrent. Glory kills and the cringey cutscenes in the last two games were bad enough and constantly broke up the action. Now there is no action at all.

The mech gameplay is hilarious how there is no weight. I will remind you that Hugo worked on Pacific Rim, the first one, the GOOD one. The one where all the robots had weight to all their movement, yet this game is japanese gundam style weightless mech.

the game is shit designed most enemies that are a threat have exactly one specific solution that you have to do instead of giving you different options, dumbfucking game designe

Ok well you're just not gonna know that doing a perfect dodge overpowers your auto canons. Otherwise the turrets you fight are indestructible. How does that make sense? Now multiply that by 10 other fake mechanics. Eternal and TDA have no fundamentals. It's just pulling shit out of a hat on a whim.

that STIFF transition to the gun against a gun that conveniently shoots walls instead of bullets AT you

one weapon viable

which?

Oh. My. Goddess.
Is that a heckin' dragorino!?
Shut up and take my money xD

Why is the music so fucking awful?

Because the studio fucked over Mick Gordon and then publicly shat on him despite Mick being 100% in the right.

Good composers tend to not want to work for companies that will fuck them over and then badmouth them.

No multiplayer

For real? Lol. LMAO.

In fairness were the multiplayer modes for any of the nu-Doom games ever popular?
A lot of the time I forget they even existed and nobody ever really brings them up. I can see why they would decide to not even bother.

Because the studio fucked over Mick Gordon and then publicly shat on him despite Mick being 100% in the right.

Good composers tend to not want to work for companies that will fuck them over and then badmouth them.

Well okay that's fine. However I have to ask do the people who put this game together have ears?
The music is unforgivably horrid.

So game journos complained about the marauders, so they made an entire game out of that.

You can shoot them until they die

Some people think Stratton was so pissed off about the clout Gordon got that he's been purposely sabotaging the music

Personally I just think the cheap and directionless MS studio they use now is talentless.

GmanLives said it was kino though

Expedition 33 Derangement syndrome has set in

consider that you faggots and your faggot bots have shit up /v for over three weeks now and even spread to /pol to market your shitty game...

Sure maybe people hype Mick way too much but the soundtrack in Dark Ages is extremely generic and it feels like one and the same song is playing through the entire game. Makes you appreciate Mick more.

Thisis MS making both the problem (jew pricing) and the solution (tard wrangle everyone to goy pass) with nobody actually calling them out.

AI generated

We were spared the sight of her horrendous visage, thank God.

dunno why it is hard to get 80s/90s metal bands as the composer for these. Everything from 2016 and on were shit.

how the fuck did a game more flawed than FPSs from 15 years ago become genre redefining?

Shooter draught. FPS have been practically dead for a decade so people who want shooter will take anything. If you've been starving long enough even a steak shaped turd will start to look attractive

didn’t they get the composer for Dusk to do the music for the Eternal DLCs? Why not bring him back on?

brown Anon Babbleskin has no taste

Of course

Why in the FUCK are they trying to create this le epic in game universe for Doom with le epic cutscenes and characters when vast majority of people don't give a shit and just wanna shoot gun and dick down demons with Doom guys super cock gun? The story in Dark Ages is FUCKING lame so far albeit I only played one mission. The story in the nu Wolfenstein games at least made you care, considering it's political nature but DOOM? WHY?

Because Stratton is a cheap faggot that is eternally butthurt over Mick Gordon blowing up from Doom 2016 and not him/his team.

looks like people are not willing to pay 80 yuros for single player FPS games.

people are not willing to pay for a bad game

The story in the nu Wolfenstein games at least made you care

Not really. it was tarantino slop

Well, UNOPTIMIZED single player FPS games, maybe.

I wonder if there will be a company that makes versions of AAA games with worse graphics, but that steal all of the gameplay mechanics, and sell them for half the price. By the time the game is announced, you could probably clone it and ship it.

christ

Should have been a Heretic game

dafuq you mean its slop? Doom doesn't even have a single character that is on the same level of complexity of Max Hass.

buy an ad retard

fetchimage.jpg - 600x582, 149.65K

Notice how you had absolutely no retort to what I actually said?
Raped.

expedition 33 is extremely repetitive and shallow though

no fucking way thats doom

Parrying is never, ever as fun as manually avoiding attacks and managing your distance from the enemy. Reduces all complexity to a single button press, and the punishment for failing a parry is exactly the same as getting hit in a game has always been.

The only way for a parry to be interesting is to incorporate some kind of directional input/dependency or give it some kind of drawback that makes it not the default best option for countering any kind of attack.

The game is also real easy. Significantly easier than Eternal even on nightmare, there's just so much defensive shit happening all the time from the shield. Beyond a full invincible block and parry, it's fucking AOE blasting apart rooms more than your guns are.
The game feels like a first person beat em up, and I just sometimes shoot a shotgun. Should have called it Quake.

They were
And that was a good thing

This was only stage 6 but it was the exact point I just got tired of the game and that's only like 2 hours gameplay up to that point.

text box covering a third of the screen to tell the player to press one button for a boost.

You can't parry any attacks except for the ones that glow green, which are themselves a subset of attacks usually from bigger / boss enemies. Failing a parry either gets you hit (which will almost kill you for the big attacks that are parryable), or will have you just block if you're too early which limits your ability to use the shield at all for a while after.

oh my science... this...this is epic, so gritty and le dark!

Should have called it Quake.

Call it Hexen, this shit doesn't even play anything like Quake.

Forcing doom into dark fantasy

when MS literally fucking owns Activision now, who owns Heretic/Hexen

Why the fuck are they so scared to DO something with the ips they already fucking have collecting dust.

even quake would have been better because fighting cosmic horrors was the fucking point in 1. doom is about demons and big guns

You are correct, this isn't Doom

I'm convinced that anyone that disliked Doom Eternal just got filtered super hard and has no taste. This isn't the way Doom should move forward.

My main gripe so far is the addition of a sprint bind.
MUH YOU FEEL LIKE A TANK NOW.
I immediately turned on auto sprint, and now all sprint serves to do is make regular movement feel clunky. Why is backing up so slow?

Also,
-Why am I checking the fucking map so much - this is Doom, I don't want to check the map every 45 seconds.

-The plasma SMG is really underwhelming, but I haven't unlocked any upgrades for it, so maybe it gets better?

-Same with the metal ball launcher, whatever it's called. Like, its purpose is to remove armor, but what does this weapon do that "shoot the enemy and throw shield" doesn't?

-Soundtrack is good. Doom Eternal's shits on it though.

-Every encounter is literally just a field with some cover, where Doom Eternal's arenas felt distinct.

-Enemies are much more difficult to see, and deaths feel like you got scammed sometimes.

-It feels like you're forced to explore the levels and use the fucking map if you actually want to upgrade gear. Stupid. Organically exploring will get you ~30-40% clear rate whereas opening the map to go to the stupid fucking ?'s actually gets you enough materials to purchase the upgrades. whyyyyyy.

-The mech and dragon levels were cool, but I feel like these are going to make me groan if I ever decide to revisit the game. I don't have the desire to replay them. Mech level is at least really short.

-Cutscenes are stupid and I do not care about the 'good guy' characters at all. I do like the obese makyr guy though. Main villain designs are also peak.

That being said, it's not terrible - there's definitely some good here.

All the shield mechanics are great, the game is polished, and the combat feels good.

Doom Eternal >> Doom 2016 > Doom: The Dark Ages

Doom 3 chads win yet again

file.png - 2518x1024, 528.42K

I just finished this level. The dragon is like a vehicle that you use to go to the various points of interest. You disembark and play the game normally. These short aerial combat sections are ok for a first run but I'm sure they're gonna be a chore in every other run. Generally I'm having fun but I feel like there's not gonna be much replay value. Like there's not enough combat. Arenas are filled with fodder that you one-shot en masse and the handful of heavies aren't hard to deal with. Also there's a bunch of rooms that are just empty. Maybe I'm still in the easy levels.

one of the first scenes in the game is doomguy telling the plot to fuck off

What went wrong? Why is it all an ADHD convoluted mess now?

2001 was when console became a very popular platform for the genre.

multiple threads up shitting on this game

I purchased it because that guarantees its kino. Go figure, I was right. It’s infinitely better than Eternal. Not quite as good as 2016 however.

They told me the same and I believed them. I got memed.

THATS WHAT I MEAN! DOOM ETERNAL AND THIS WHOLE LE EPIC STORY SHIT THEY WANNA FEED US WAS A MISTAKE.

no multiplayer is a bad thing

Fuck off normalfags

Eternal is easy. I didn't get filtered by it. I just think it's shit.

The gimmick shit with the mech and dragon suck. Feels like a mobile game as far as gameplay depth and variety. I wish they had spent all that dev time making a map editor or multiplayer. The mech is especially shit. At least the dragon is neat to fly but the mech is just poor mans infinity blade. Sucks my nuts

got filtered super hard and has no taste

It's a difference in opinion. Not everyone wants to play FPS games like they're a sweaty MOBA.
I beat Eternal, but I found it annoying a lot of the time. Fast-paced gameplay with tons of enemies constantly up your ass+limited ammo+need to constantly switch weapons and manage cooldowns to optimize your DPS and exploit enemy weaknesses is a bad combination imo.

This game is like, critical mass of everything wrong with the modern gaming industry

Translation: I'm a tranny dev working in my parent's basement and only upvote (not play and certainly not buy) games made by other commie tranny indie devs.

What happened with them? Did Marty screw over them as well?

This game is peak tranny, you falseflagging gcj retard

Expansive difficulty settings are good, there is literally nothing wrong with games being much more modular. You're just a big stinky baby who wants to seethe at how other people play videogames while not playing any yourself

durr you just can't afford it!

It's on gamepass you retards, I made this thread while playing the fucking game. It's not inaccessible, at all.

Is that really the one thing you can cling to to defend this piece of shit?

You are a dumb gay faggot

my 4070 can run it well you fag

add more budget, downtime and emphasis on the plot

it's fucking filler and does nothing to actually advance or add to the series whatsoever but pad out a $70 with pointless bullshit and maybe set up a Quake tie-in

doesn't even actually end at the point that sets up 2016, meaning you're waiting for DLC at best

any game that tests your motor skills in some way is now ADHD

stick to turn games you fucking shitter

change language to Japanese

don't have to listen to niggers anymore

Not my problem.

Just want to say the 'Morale' mechanic and the related arenas are by far the worst part of all three games so far, especially if there's a fucking Cyberdemon as the last enemy before the 'boss' shields drop

The three punch mechanic feels awful but I don't mind everything else

durr you just can't afford it

didn't say that in my post bozo, but of course you can't actually argue the words on your screen so you gotta invent a claim you can defeat. how could you dislike modular difficulty settings when you invent lower difficulty debates here

Is there a better opening to do damage on Cyberdemons after a double parry? Or is it really just melee combo? They're taking ages to die

looks the same as Eternal, runs 100% worse

Eternal looked better because I didn't have use upscaling to run the game at 200+ fps at native res. Also the pure dark baked in lighting looked great on OLED displays.

Just another sad reminder Mick ruined Doom with his zoomer metal.

i dont understand the point of revival sigils. i am like chapter 5 or something and it feels kinda pointless?

Bethesda doesn't want a second TAG situation. They want to maximize the audience.

Its levels also aren't just flat open empty spaces.

This game is a prime example of why videogames are not worth $70-90. I'm glad it rightfully flopped. Now they will lower its price to its actual value even sooner. I'll pick it up when it's $30 or less, just like Doom Eternal is now.

whats even the downside to using them?
i dont get a cool achievement?

lol what. the game runs perfect. most optimized new release i've seen in fucking years.
