DOOM Eternal is ultra successful

DOOM Eternal is ultra successful

ID is like: DOOD WHAT IF WE MADE IF SLOW AS SHIT AND EASY AS FUCK

DOOM 2025 releases

It's literally the biggest flop of all time

Holy..... FUCK! Only TES 6 can save Bethesda now.

Hey Marty. How you doin' buddy?

Zoom sissies.... our response???

FUCKING HOI4 IS MORE POPULAR THAN NEW DOOM

OH NO NO NO....... AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

what are you trying to say?

damn I didnt expect it to do as well as eternal but less then half is brutal

limbuschads....we won

AND Eternal was cracked day 1

Denuvo = no buy

but you woudn't have bought it anyway

Well prove it. I'm 100% not buying anything with denuvo and evidently a shitton of people do the same as me.

a lot of people will point to the gameplay changes but for most normie redditors I doubt they are clued in enough to understand how the gameplay changes would be drastic enough to dissuade them.
There must have been something thematically? Or did not having a mick track go viral like BFG and the one they fear impact sales?
no covid?
franchise fatigue?
Jumped the shark on mechanics and abusing the memes in eternal?

WAIFU CHADS RISE UP

I'm amazed left4dead2 is still that popular

I'd like to believe even the most crowd-following braindead NPC normalfag can look at the parrying and think "hey wait this isn't Doom at all"

it's slow but i would have died several times over if not for the extra lives holy shit the amount of bitches on screen and behind you is no joke... and i'm just on ultra-happiness

What they did to Mick is what came out publicly. Now imagine all the bad shit that didn't get outed. Just a poisoned company ran by poisoned people. No investment in making a quality product anymore.

CHADternal was just godlike

Eternal was just as bad

Doomguy is the ultimate killing machine whose mere presence terrify literal Gods

except he can't fly, so here's a swanky dragon for you to fly around in like a cute fairy

also he isn't actually all that powerful, so here's a giant mech that he totally needs even though he's killed titanic cityscape behemoths from hell plenty of times

it's a great game

It is genuinely remarkable how much worse the OST is with a team of people instead of one or two guys. I don't get why they didn't at least bring Hulshult or Levy over

HOIchuds we won!

It is genuinely remarkable how much worse the OST is with a team of pajeets instead of from a talented person

Wow, what a crazy fucking discovery you made bro.

lost to map painting simulator

I'm prone to onions out and slurp up the whole theme of being the one they fear I bought all doom games so far at launch and love the edgelord metal theme in general
I have no fucking clue what they were thinking with the vehicle and turret sections, who could have greenlit that? Not only is it really boring gameplay wise the dragon is fucking gay, make him an ugly hulking freak the thing prances through the air.

Or the game is not the flop that Anon Babble is saying, you can browse other forums and see that the reception is only like this in this shithole

>It is genuinely remarkable how much worse the OST is with a team of people instead of one or two guys

That's the industry in a nutshell, isn't it? It's remarkable how many 10-30 people teams made groundbreaking, industry defining games in the 90s and 2000s. Now they're up to a thousand and games feel more shallow, less memorable and more homogeneous each year.

Maybe it shouldn't have had forced Ray tracing - therefore limiting the amount of people that can play it.

less players than Bungieslop

OH NO NO NON NO NO WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

There's no end to problems a pcfag must endure

an mmo from one of the biggest devs in the industry has more players than a single player only shooter

I'm shocked! Next you'll tell me elden ring was a flop.

ok, so what's the cope? Millions of players on Game Pass?

That's always the cope.

how about Hearts of Iron IV, anon-dono

bump up the speed then pussy

instant backdown

No, Gamepass cope makes NO FUCKING SENSE, so shills are now unironically saying that Eternal is a mega success because of the Pandemic LMAAAAAAO

If you play any of these you are trans or likely to transition.

how about a single player only J'RPG from a literal who dev that came out two weeks ago

Doom: the wokes ages flopped

I'm shocked. Really. Shocked

This is a reaction to doom eternal being bad, just like the rise of skywalker bombing was a reaction to the last jedi being bad.

3rd worlders with decade old laptops.

That's quite impressive for HOI

Devs had a successfully formula with Eternal but decided to throw it away to appease filtered redditors and the dumbest among 2016fags and now we've got the least popular game in the series.

My name is luigi, mamma mia.

why would i pay $70 when i can use bing and get gamepass for free

70$

denuvo

raytracing isn't optional

broken on nvidia cards

on gamepass

I put the disc in my PS5, then after it installs I press play :)

You press play and get 20 fps with 480p resolution

sssssssshhhhhhhiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeertttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt they really did go from mick to slop, corporations really can never let a good thing last huh? Always have to try and squeeze some bullshit when they could just take easy wins.

nah its 60fps with ray tracing, nice try tho! maybe you were thinking of all those modern PC ports devs dont even bother to optimise anymore because PC fats would rather just pay $2000 for a GPU to compensate.

Amerikantsy never woke up.... What wre we gonna do doomsisters?

Aaaieeeee NO DENUVO SAMA PLEASE STOP RAPING ME

Every time a game comes out with denuvo I get weeks worth of laughs from butthurt third world laptop users.

It's only slow if your PC can't handle the settings. This happens with a lot of PC games. Ikaruga is easy and slow on PC if you run a bitcoin miner in the background on a shit pc.

PS5

60 fps

LMAO

I found eternal to be a big downgrade from 2016 so I assumed this would follow that decline and if it turned out good then I would hear about it but instead the only thing I heard was that the disc empty and just downloads the game instead.

People are tired of the Marvel tier story about le hecking badass doomslayer

Skyrim is more popular than doom despite being 10+ years old at this point

Keeek

Another woke modern shooter slop mogged by Limbus Company

Based

Both are true

It's 80 and goypass is a meme

When I heard about title "dark ages" I thought we are getting DOOM Painkiller edition and I was hyped but incredibly, but then I see this and.... youtube.com/watch?v=flwsqWvaYKo
I hate trend chasing with a passion of burning sun.

doom 2016 is incredibly overrated. babbys first fps

It's just too expensive.
God damn it's literally 95 bucks here for the physical standard BASE no season pass version
That's insane, and it looks especially bad when stuff like Expedition 33 just came out to not only much better reviews than Dark Ages, but also like a fucking third of the price. On top of that the Oblivion remaster also came out to almost half of the price of Dark Ages.
And furthermore obviously there's no Mick Gordon on the soundtrack, but not even Hulshult and Levy was hired to do it.
Why would I pay 95 for this crap? And I like nuDoom.

I think the sales are down because
1) people have gamepass
2) it looks similair to eternal
3) they dont have a lot of money and just bought oblivion and clair obscur exp 33
4) economy sucks

Imagine playing doom with a fucking controller, holy shit

spend billions of dollars buying studios

put their games day 1 on a monthly sub

everyone stops buying your games

what's xbox's big plan here?

For people to get the subscription

yes? you can google it dumbass you can watch videos of it.

It felt woke so I didn't buy it

its made for controller

I cant explain why but the dragon you ride on felt woke and gay, like a fat woman designed it.

game from 1962 has almost as many current players as TDA

get game pass

$5 deal for first three months

play three new $70 AAA games in that time

MS loses out on $195 in sales

make it make sense. are they just hoping people forget they're subbed? or is the angle that it's a sale that Steam doesn't get?

shiggy.gif - 300x199, 1.78M

My guess is piracy/poorfags, some of these games are getting so big it's easier to pay $5 than to pirate and it's $5 more than 0.
Richfags won't cancel the subscription, many regular users won't either since MS keeps dripping games to the game pass.
And don't you only get that deal one time per account?

Also, I don't know if it does make sense. Maybe they're operation at a loss hoping it will be profitable one day

I believe Eternal dodged the bullet only because
1) hardcore streaming was on the rise
2) it still has that reputation of a brutal and scary game
If streamers can't sell it this time, it's over

How can consider acceptable pacific rim mech punching and dragon riding in a DOOM game? All this medieval melee focused thematic is not DOOM

Like Spotify and Netflix, most people keep paying a subscription to have a service available when needed. Rushing to beat games to "make use" of a sign-up discount is peak poorfag behavior.

It's the same problem as Doom 3: It doesn't play like the games before it.

Maybe they're operation at a loss hoping it will be profitable one day

this is how breaking into markets in tech has worked for a long time. The gameplan is almost always undercut, sell at a loss until you gain significant market share or complete monopoly and then start turning the screws on your consumer. The problem with gamepass is that they have been doing this for a while now, like 6-7 years? And don't seem to have a viable off ramp yet.

It's boiling the frog, they know normies will get poorer, and prices will go up, so there is no other option except piracy

Will it beat veilguard?

oof

Absolutely
Fucking
Mogged

Id will bend the knee and use QuakeCon (DoomCon) as an excuse to discount it and save face

Turn all the sliders up, its not easy at all

a constant stream of cash

versus

making money during the release, and then making less money over time

Maybe the fags who always say that the shit game being successful doesn't matter, you really see public opinion with the sequel were actually right. Cause 30k for doom is fucking abysmal.

Doom is about shooting shit. Punching and kicking is okay too, but playing pong with a shield is not it

There is no way gamepass is making any profit

Ikr, veilguard was considered a massive flop that only hit 90k on steam while also being on gamepass, and yet somehow we're being told that dark ages was a success, lol

Even Expedition 33 got 50k players on day 1. Fucking Doom getting 30k is terrible

It's not even the shield, it's the rhythm game fucking mechanics

I was wondering why some of the MCC music was so weird

can adjust difficulty and speed

doesnt so he can complain on Anon Babble

I haven't even played Eternal yet. Zero % chance of me shelling out 70$ for a game I might not even be able to run.

From what i've read/heard their plan is to try and get everyone on gamepass cause cheaper, especially with 100 dollar games, then when they have monopoly on the service, they start to increase price, charge for deluxe games, etc. Like netflix.

Holy shit I didn't know it was THAT bad

Typical MS Embrace, Extend, Extinguish strategy.

then when they have monopoly on the service

Fatal flaw for that business model in a free market

It is the $70 price point unironically.

It's the RTX requirement. Steam forums and reddit are full of people complaining that they can't run it.

seriously stupid thing to do. i mean this game was clearly built with console in mind, but eternal was also renowned for running fucking flawlessly as long as you disabled in game overlay. tarnishing that reputation with a game that needs you to buy a 4080 in this economy is just moronic.

It doesn't really have competition since Microsoft has most of the industry under its belt now. Ubisoft has its own subscription service, but it's significantly more expensive, and GP still has some Ubi games in the catalogue.

Now that I remember they even had Lee Hard Castle for DOOM 2016 and Eternal. With TDA they went full corpo soulless (I blame Marty, what a massive faggot)
youtube.com/watch?v=5JJu-CTDLoc

Spacewar

Piratechads, I kneel

They spent a mega shit ton of money sending out gifts to streamers. When I checked them playing it half of them looked bored and never picked it up past first stream, even those that actually play games.
Game is shit.
Overpriced.
Too much sit in mech shoot big thing.
Shit DRM.
Forced ray-tracing.

limes.png - 734x745, 856.08K

to me it seems like a game developed and commercialized for gamepass on console, the gameplay makes sense with the pourpose to playing it with a controller, the price tag for "do you really want to spend 80$ for a single player 10 hours game? lol luckily for you we have the cheap gamepass"

try to use a variety of weapons in a fight

it's too clumsy, die

just use the super shotgun like people always bitched about not being able to do

win

this game is gay as fuck

Stop saying this faggoty shit. It's not my job to tune the difficulty, it's the devolpers' job. having difficulty sliders at all is an admission that the game is pure watered down slop aimed at everybody.

straight into the dumpster

im a doom lover and i did not buy it....the reasons?

the biggest one by far is

forced rtx

for a fast game this needs alot of frames i dont care that its optimised "well enough" id tech is known to be liquid pc gold and bogging it down with raytracing is retarded.

no mick

kinda a big one considering he invented the argent metal style and hes missing from the one thing that blew him up due to corpo fuckery

expensive

its more money for what i assume isnt a bigger game so why buy it when its inflated like that.

im going to wait a generation of gpu's out so i can run it well and then buy it on a steam sale or whatever

why do i get such great joy when i see things i dislike flop? its such an evil feeling at the core, but goddamnit i know this is completely warranted and deserved.

Schadenfreude. Nothing wrong with feeling that

why they add parry mechanics though?

I don't even know there's a new doom game, what the fuck is the marketing team doing

How about 80 fucking bucks for a solo game that you know won't last over 10 hours

Left 4 Dead 2 that high

Jesus fucking Christ...

don't put denuvo

game thrives

put denuvo

game flops

How does this work? Shouldn't it be vice versa?

That’s literally me and you are correct. The fuck I want to parry green orbs in a fucking Doom game?! Shield idea is shit and anti Doom too. Also isn’t the Slayer like a God? Why does he need a mech and shit?

Crashing this plane
With no survivors

If you unironically don't have a gpu in pic related or newer.
Buy a fucking console. Ray tracing is forced because fucking 5 year old consoles can do it. That's like bitching an ssd/nvme is required

Denuvo is customer repellent. Yes pirates won't play your game now, but they aren't going to buy it anyway. Now you lost the paying customer because tanking framerate due to DRM is a big no-no AND lose out on free marketing via pirates who would have kept your game in the discusson. Publishers are still too dumb to understand this.

Denuvo is customer repellent

Literally proven false (see black myth wukong and mh wilds)
I didn't bother reading the rest of your retarded post. Just know you're a brown faggot with no money.

Denuvo

Deserved

It's a significantly better game than Eternal. The only reason it isn't selling is because Eternal killed the franchise and made everyone right off ever buying another.

chinksect botted trash

Lmao

LMAO

jesus christ i just wanna go home already and play some doom, man.

don't be, game blows

i already paid full price ($3) for it last night and stopped just before what im guessing is the first flying level

What's with those "it failed because of denuvo" comments. Arguably eternal was in a worse situation because it had denuvo for a while AND they fucked it up by mistakenly cracking denuvo themselves, so only paying customers got fucked over.

paying customers got fucked over

I am sure they will return next time for round 2!

Denuvo makes no difference forpopular games that will sell anyway.
But it's actually detrimental for smaller games as you lose free advertising in a saturated market.

There was absolutely zero reason for this to have forced RT. Forcing it in Indiana Jones didn't really make sense either but you could argue that better graphics help to boost the player's immersion, even if it comes at the cost of performance. It's manageable because it's an im-sim adjacent game that's supposed to be taken at slow pace.
This, on the other hand, is a fast-paced FPS. Even if I run it at ~90-120 fps I would trade it for even higher framerates, because that's what enhances the experience in this type of game.
My guess is that this is just another way for studios to cut costs. No need to figure out lighting by hand anymore when you can have AI do it for you and then have RT slapped on everything you dish out. Pretty shit.

Slow as shit

stop playing it slow?
this is missing, the music so far is not as good

How the hell are that many people still playing once human

Expedition 33 was on the which I played
People definitely didn't stop buying that
I'll wait for the weekend to play Doom though

literally the only way to "play it fast" is to use one weapon and engage in parry/shield shit constantly. It genuinely boggles the mind how anyone can claim this gameplay is less forced than eternal.

guys I'm playing it right now and I'm having fun

Game is shit.

Disagree, it's closer to 2016 Doom

Forced ray-tracing.

Are you sure about that?
I'm getting steady 80 fps on a 7800xt on nightmare

gameplay is forced

What the fuck are you talking about, you sound like you just want to be mad

Disagree, it's closer to 2016 Doom

name literally one way this simon says parryslop that enforces using one weapon at a time is even remotely close to doom 2016. This is WAY further than eternal ever was

Whatever you say fag

You people are delusional

PC users are used to triple digit framerates without upscaling.

can't name even one way

pffft

Hits lower low than yesterday

Grim as fuck

PC users are used to triple digit framerates without upscaling.

Very few users use GPU's capable of 4K anon
You literally said it enforces one weapon at a time, that's just bullshit

You literally said it enforces one weapon at a time, that's just bullshit

Compared to every other nudoom it 1000% does.

2016 and Eternal both had quickswap speeds, which meant you could effectively treat all of your weapons as part of one moveset and instantly swap between them. Dark ages explicitly doesn't. It's stupid to swap weapons in the thick of it because as if the slow speed wasn't enough, it also stops you from blocking for a second. You will die if you swap whenever you feel like it. you either do it when an enemy is stunned or when you have breathing room and aren't attacking.

Cope nigger

Who said anything about 4K?
1440p or even 1080p native with 144Hz or higher is better than fake 4K dynamic resolution and upscaling on consoles.

Ha, literally gutted by soulless microsoft suits.

Nostalgiafagging over Doom3

Lying faggot

It's expensive and unless you crank up the customized settings it's just not very exciting.
This game was clearly made by microsoft focus groups.

it also stops you from blocking for a second

i've had the "automatically switch weapons when empty" get me hurt a few times because it prevented me from parrying stuff

Sex with Laimu.

Yes, they got rid of the funnest part of nudoom for parry slop. What were they thinking.

hey that's happened to me too. more annoying to me is how simon says enemy encounters are. if you're not parrying you're dying. worse than the marauder ever was. you only ever fight cyberdemons one way, period- get in his face so he can't chaingun you and trade parries over and over and over again.

Also the amount of weapons that don't really synergise that well. I'm only like 10 missions in but there's already like 3 weapons that are "super slow firing extremely strong gun that has an upgrade where it gets buffed when you parry something". Some just straight up not using at all and don't have a good niche that is worth switching to.

Why not turn it off?

The Russians and the Chinese REALLY love that game.

Bro... you know how old Doom 3 is?

I did once I realized what was happening

While I got 0 interest in nu-doom, wouldn't it be better to wait for the weekend to start before we talk steam numbers?
I doubt the game will have much staying power anyway.

Sure, because it released at an odd time
wait til the weekend before posting steamcharts
then you can go ham

forced RT automatically means 40% of the PC playerbase can't even play it

Holy fuck

wait til the weekend

Why is there always someone saying this kind of cope? The game isn't going to suddenly have 10x the playercount, they never do.

IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN 50 BUCKS

Thats fine, but you know you're being dishonest

It's remarkable that random pajeets make worse music that talented people

Do you also find 2+2=4 remarkable?

I see people keep saying this but theres no way my 7800xt is playing RT at 80fps on 1440p

2+2=4

woah..........

the numbers will go up once the lore videos drop

Ultra Violence is too easy

Nightmare is still too easy

damn

game has 2-day advanced access

reaches full release

already pathetic numbers are even lower

People really don't realize just how much of a disaster this is

still more popular than RDR2

Rockstar is doomed

doome2.mp4 - 1280x694, 3.64M

built with console in mind

The funny thing is that it runs like shit on Microsofts own console too (Series S), probably also because of the raytracing being forced on
I am not even going to bother downloading it

Playing 2016 right before this shit was a massive fucking mistake. Dark Ages is so fucking slow and clunky.

TDA is suffering the consequences of Eternal, on top of doubling down on what people didn't like about that game

tired franchise without Mick Gordon brutal music

you faggots say this every fucking chart thread about every game.

you HAVE to get a life. This is pathetic even for Anon Babble posting standards.

idk how anyone can do that bullshit morale leader encounter on level 6 and say the game is too easy

when compared to the past games this is the easiest nightmare so far

yea idk nothing in either 2016 or Eternal killed me frequently like the bullshit in this game

WAIFUGAWDS

STAND

AND

It's still fun unless you end up on a chile server or something shit

Honestly (so far, I'm still playing idk what more bs they can throw at you yet) as soon as you unlock this rune Nightmare is a joke but you don't get this until like Chapter 12-ish

i think the trends you are seeing is now because of gamepass becoming more known amongst pc users, this game is a day one release on gamepass, even the for the cheap tier. probably way mroe people on gamepass than buying on steam. Too bad we cant get graphs on their like steam.

SHART

too fucking expensive + forced RT, that's literally it

a lot of people double/triple dipped into oblivion slopmaster and/or expedition 33 for this month too so it's reasonable to believe that TDA numbers are up a bit

extremely expensive

extremely heavy to run

it looks like a lame spin-off, not a mainline doom game

no ost worth shilling

looks like marvel shit, the first thing that my head jumped to when I saw doomguy with the shield was that gay image of hulk in medieval armor, and people are experiencing marvel fatique

the LOOOOOREEEEEE is the lamest part of nuDoom, even the audience at the announcement of Doom Eternal went quiet when LOOOREEE was mentioned, and this is just LOOREEEE the game

Those are all long rpgs

too much pushback from general population

just fund the gaming division with enough money to kill gaming in it’s entirety

2000 IQ move, sasuga Pajeet

parryslop

you dont actually have to engage with e parry mechanic, you can ignore the orbs and just dodge them like the imp fireballs from og doom and kill them just fine with regular weapons. By mid game the only thing the parry is doing is a mini stun with barely enough time to get one shotgun shot off

forced weapon

the fuck are you talking about, you can swap to any weapon you want mid combat at anytime. Ill go so far as to say that like 2016 you can just pick your fave weapon and beat the whole game with it if you tried hard enough.

Doom 2016 was the Force Awakens

people were semi-okay with it and had hope for the future of the franchise

Doom Eternal was The Last Jedi

people hated it and lost all hope for the franchise

Doom The Dark Ages was Rise of Skywalker

people didn't even bother with this one

the brief was misspelled; he can only shid & fard.

STAND AND FIGHT

Was this the moment the game's fate was sealed bros?

I'll be honest with you bros
I'm fine with Doom dying again
Doom 3 strayed too much from the formula and killed the series for a decade, now it's the Dark Ages
Hopefully id can survive this

marketing goof
yes it was a telltale sign

is it harman curve?

you dont actually have to engage with e parry mechanic,

this sounds absolutely fucking miserable with a ton of the enemies in this game. cyberdemons especially sound like they'd be abominable to fight without engaging in parrying, but most of the tanky melee "get in your face" enemies sound like they'd suck to fight without being willing to parry

the fuck are you talking about, you can swap to any weapon you want mid combat at anytime. Ill go so far as to say that like 2016 you can just pick your fave weapon and beat the whole game with it if you tried hard enough.

if you're fixating on just using one weapon you're missing the point.
Doom 2016 gives you utter freedom to either use one weapon or juggle your entire arsenal.
Eternal lets you juggle your entire arsenal, but it's made to force you to switch things up and not just point and shoot with one particular weapon at some point, which some people don't like.
Dark Ages overcorrects so hard that swapping weapons isn't just slower than 2016, it disables your shield. You can't use your entire arsenal in Dark Ages. It's just not how they want you to play. I hate it. running the SSG 90% of the time is boring. using auto fire weapons when you can't swap to a burst fire weapon as an exclamation point is boring.

Imagine being mogged by fucking OVERWATCH and WAIFU

eternal was succesfull cause 2016 boom i was also hyped of the 2016 being better then i got ammo issues at the start of the game, super mario hell level and cherrytop marauder shields stupid mechanic , beat it but i was dissapointed even what they ve done with the unmaykr besides being hugo favourite gun

What if we put a mechanic at the core of the battle system

What if we added an extremely obnoxious slow-mo everytime you used it (which in horde scenarios will be every 3 seconds)

What was the rationale here
Surely someone during playtesting commented it was fucking obnoxious

ID is like: DOOD WHAT IF WE MADE IF SLOW AS SHIT AND EASY AS FUCK

Every Microsoft release is lame as fuck. Blame it on them not ID. Microsoft went as far as forcing trannies and women into every studio they bought back in 2019. They've been mentally ill for this long. Ms idea of succeeding was to change the way people think and if everyone got used to lame games then it would be easy to make money, there would be no risks and they could chump out their woke shit quicker without rebooting 3 times.

id has felt utterly conflicted and lacking in confidence since they got genuine pushback in the eternal dlc. so many of their design decisions feel contradictory and stuck between "we need to make this more appealing to casual players and net the widest possible audience" and "fuck you eternal was awesome let's make more shit like that"

I am going crazy or do enemies no longer climb and scale the environments? There’s almost 0 verticality.

the more you win the more the industry kills itself

is that whag you really want

one funny thing I noticed in relation to verticality is that the vast majority of bottomless pits do literally no damage to doomguy anymore. in 2016 they killed you. in eternal they did a chunk of damage.
I guess the complaints over muh impossible first person platforming hit home lol

UHHHHHMMMM SERRAT ITS THE NEW DAISY WWOOOOOOOWWWWW THATS WHY HE GOT PISSED WHEN ASSRACK KILLED HIM

WHY ASSRACK ITS THE SMARTEST AND PRINCE OF HELL

HAHAHA GET FUCKED

Uhhhh it's just like the original Doom then.
Isn't that what you chuds wanted?

How is gamepass revenue distributed to the studio? Does MS give Bethesda x$ per hour played on gamepass?

Nobody is as far ahead in thinking as me so I'll just remind you guys that accessibility is woke and woke makes games lame. Do you not see it? I'm not talking about artificial difficulty. I'm talking about difficulty being completely erased like in Dragon Age Valeguard where every path is linear and the puzzles require less than 2 IQ to solve.

I miss the flying castle fortress in space where I can chill

DLC gonna be invisible walls everywhere and maykr carrying the SLAYAH for platforming like when you fall in mario kart

I saw one streamer who did Doom 2016 and Eternal at launch and enjoyed them.
He called the mecha section gadget.
He's not against the new gameplay but felt it wasn't well exploited.
The engine can do a shiload of physic but it's pointless because gameplay have no use for it.
OST is weaker.

So out of the 3 nudooms which level felt the most like classic doom? I’m going to have to say the foundry in 2016.

the menu mission select card deck sucks yup

GIVE ME 1 GOOD REASON TO GET DOOM ON STEAM FOR 100$ IF I CAN GET IT ON GAMEPASS FOR 1$.

the most mario doom like wad its the second level of shiternal

its a great game, im having a ton of fun.
the OST is kinda ass, though.
and i miss the base i could walk around in and check out my collectibles i found.

They should have just made an actual mediaval doom. Conan but Doomguy flinging comically large battle axes.

Yeah it’s fucking soulless. The menus feel cheap with no real thought put into them.

revenue distributed to the studio

anon this is a first party game
in general it can go two ways: like EGS exclusives where you get paid upfront or based on hours played, i believe the first one to be a way more popular model

Dark Ages got announced, released and flopped before Golden Souls 3 released

inb4

game not hard enough because it would insult the black women who they are trying to appeal to and black women are extremely protected

just the thought of them having to play 4 difficulties below might be threatening to our corporation

we should make everything lame so they read about how lame the game is from modern audience journalists so the black women doesn't get mad and can enjoy her game she totally bought and cant wait to play

i was supposed to get in on steam?
.......why?
i got on xbox gamepass.

uy0ds8923hgu.jpg - 285x298, 17.51K

there are people on this board RIGHT NOW missing glory kills from the game

I am supposed to give a shit about their opinions

lmao

i wish that this game wasn't doom and was hexen or quake or something because then it lacking the most fun mechanics of nudoom wouldn't feel bad

and apparently i was supposed to buy it on steam?
nobody can explain why, but thats where i was supposed to buy it?

eternal was already a downgrade in every department from doom

they thought they could do it again and reach an even bigger and more modern audience

coulda released more wads

blasphemy!!! our consultancy groups need a new game so they can work on the narrative and completely FUCK UP the gameplay. think about the starving children in africa!!!

wrong

So what happens now? Do we get another reboot in 10 years?

incorrect.
Eternal is fantastic.

oblivion remaster (i didnt like it but who cares)

its been stacked lately for gamepass bros

redditors hate eternal

doom eternal peak 100k

doom dark ages peak 30k

eternal was cracked day one, i thought denuvo help selling games?

reddit only liked doom 3.

dark ages probably peaks and 3 billion people but its on gamepass.
0 reason to get in on steam for a million dollars.

yet here we are with redditors defending eternal

I know I’m in the minority here but I always enjoyed the fact that nudoom offered the classic center aim view. Im fucking pissed that they didn’t include it because of the big ass captain America shield blocks a quarter of the screen.

blue prince

look at the user reviews it's shit. it was a trash game propped up by the kike schreiderberg likely because he got paid under the hood.

stop spamming.

eternal is the GOAT confirmed

Eternal ran on toasters. 60 FPS on 1050Ti.

how come 2016 and eternal look graphically better than the dark ages? Am I blind?

Am I blind?

yes

RTX slop and pahjeets

Eternal is the GOAT.

how come 2016 and eternal look graphically better than the dark ages? Am I blind?

Battlefront 2 (a 10 year old game) looks better than 99,9% of games released in the last decade and requires 1/1000 of the computing power.
its better not to ask these questions.

Always amuses me that this is all you have to do to Cyberdemons in this game

Why did MS fuck over potato PCs while Eternal can run in consoles?

Now compare this to Cyberdemon boss fight from 2016

Q... W... Mouse1
the ultimate woke creation

Cyberdemon boss fight from 2016

that shit is fucking insane on higher difficulties.

This looks so fucking ass lmao

I dont understand. Do parries do damage or something? That's so fucking stupid. You shot your gun 4 times.

even V Rising is higher lmao

dark ages is partially a melee game now.

Hulshult would have done good job with it. Dusk and Nightmare Reaper both have amazing osts

but even in sekiro parries didnt do damage, it just builds up the meter to make the enemy stagger.

boss fight

It would make more sense to compare it to Tyrants from DE. I just spam LoB to kill them even faster than that webm.

To be fair my SSG is fully upgraded in that webm, but even then it's silly on other enemies too
Nightmare difficulty btw

Eternal sold on 2016, Dank Ages sold on Eternal

you parry, which means you block, and hit back.
of course it does damage, why wouldnt it?

wait, i was supposed to get it on steam?
why?

telemetry showed that people watched cutscenes in eternal and they decided to go all in

no, i am not joking

There's no fucking way this is true. Right?

Right?

I fucking hate parry slop. I love doom but this looks like a hard pass for me. Maybe once its on sale for 10bucks

There are times in the game when I’m just standing around waiting for more enemies to show up but they never do. It’s a weird feeling.

Doomguy is more fragile than you thought, you must subvert your expectations, he needs that shield in order for him to have a safespace

who the fuck skips cutscenes on first playthrough tho. "look rakesh everyone want cutscene" bet their telemetry was biased as fuck

damn straight, i loved the cutscenes in eternal.
40+ yo boomer here btw.

Weird cope. Anyone can see the gameplay is a huge departure from eternal and 2016. They caved in and made it brain dead easy for console babies that whined about everything Eternal was. This is the result. This is why you don't cater to the minority who hate your game

It's true. We are truly in The Dark Ages™

STAND
AND
WAIT

Probably because of the first cutscene in 2016. Slow build up to the amazing music you slowly recognize. It was done with love but this shit is just cutscenes for the sake of it and its just bad.

SIT

AND

WATCH

why did they even make a doom game

It's a continuation of the pure gimmick faggotry they filled Eternal with lmao

releasing fps games on consoles should be banned by law.
HALO and its influence on FP was one of the worst things that ever happened to gaming.

halo.webm - 480x540, 2.97M

genuinely the most effective thing in this game is to run up to an enemy and start parrying lol
playing like a pussy trying to dodge shit gets you killed way faster

STAND

AND

BIDE

Hugo said it himself during a doom eternal stream

Are you sure about that?

Yes.

its influence on FPS***

Is Dark Ages really easy as fuck? Easier than Doom 2016?

Probably because of the first cutscene in 2016

The reason everybody adored that first cutscene in 2016 was because there was no 'lore'. The villain simply offers a rationalisation of his idiocy and the Slayer ignores it. All the cope and story is thrown out and all that remains is righteous anger. If they took from that 'people want more lore' they are retarded.

lmao what marketing mess that line was

Marauders in a nutshell

I’m playing on nightmare with a fucking Xbox controller on series x with aim assist turned off and it’s complete babby mode compared to the last 2. I can’t imagine how much easier UV is.

nope, i died several times in the first 3 levels so far.
if you get hit, you get hit hard.
im playing on hurt me plenty.

but even in sekiro parries didnt do damage,

Yes they did, posture was their healthbar

STAND BACK

AND

STAND BY

the villain

If you think Sam is intended to be the villain in 2016, wouldn't that mean 2016 is the most cucked Doom in existence? Since you do everything Sam says and when you get to his office shooting him does nothing but amuse him?

not only that the SLAYAH Testaments lore crump with giant demons fosils made everyone hype because it looked like it was evil dead third movie in doom on crack and look what dark ages is... a non licensed 40kgame cant wait dlc that its straight 2016 prequel dissapointing shit

You said it better then I could have. For me it was the familiar music kicking in and just feeling it, I dont give a shit about doom lore. Well maybe first 2 games and even then the lore can be condensed down to one paragraph. Ragemonster anger golem doomguy doesnt need lore shit more then that. Just give it in the first 30seconds, UAC fucked up, your friends are dead, we need your help or mankind might not survive this invasion of hellspawns. Thats fucking it, you dont need more for doom

just because the videos show people standing still doesn't mean that's all you do for 90% of the game bro

playing fps on a fucking controller

you are to blame for FPS being shit.

Like the other anons have said, the game costs 70 dollaros and has forced raytracing. Two considerable barriers for a sizeable amount of players

colour coded projectiles

icons everywhere telling you what to punch, what to shield bash etc

Bright coloured glow around everything you can interact with

health and ammo pick ups arranged as breadcrumbs to get retards to follow the right path

characters on the radio telling you what to do but phased as "The slayer will do X"

objective markers everywhere

Objectives listed out on screen with a compass

Screen icons to remind you which keys you've collected

dedicated button for detective vision if you get stuck

It's too much bros. The game was designed for play on the short bus to special school.
I made the mistake of not turning off tutorials when I started and the forced tooltips and "do X action 3 times" segments are painful

no shit sherlock.

Yeah you sometimes push one button and instantly zoom to an enemy.

Don't you fuck up a lot of things for him
It's been long but I'm pretty sure you're the reason he can't extract Argent anymore

because plot armor jumbo it would been a great excuse of shiternal armor change also swapping all those gay hell priests with star names with SLAYAH getting menancy closer to Samuel

Why can’t they just make tight labyrinth levels with roaming enemies, in fighting and no gimmicks just straight up blasting. No upgrades no nothing. Is this not allowed in current year?

ACK

The game was designed for play on the short bus

[chuckles].jpg - 720x480, 44.37K

nah Slayer actually gently tosses the last of the 3 Argent Filters aside instead of smashing it like the first two

the reason for no argent is because you shut down The Well, which Sam isn't really opposed to since at that point it's the only way to stop demons

I beat eternal on nightmare using a controller. I also beat doom on a 32X in 1994.

no, it's because Sam isn't a villain until TAG1 ending

also the second priest was cool, easily my favorite character in nuDoom

Useless machine!

new doom is announced

heavily showcase of the shield and very horizontal levels on a medieval theme

no interesting twist with melee weapons or projectiles based weapons making the medieval theme useless

arenas are just big circles with enemies standing there throwing colored waves of parrybait projecticles

litter your game with gimmicky boring sections that were the number 1 complain in eternal and you could observe the biggest drop in players when they reached the super Mario tower in 2016

turret sections in MMXXV

empaphis on story, in a prequel, focusing on women

Who is responsible for greenlighting this? how is it possible to be so moronic?

WAIFU

fucking lmao

KEK they all fucking sucked alongside maykr, the plot even teleported them in front of the SLAYAH to die like creatures worse than the fodder zombies

You have to admit it's ironic that when a game has issues caused by Denuvo, it's the paying customer that ends up suffering for something they didn't do

arenas are just big circles with enemies

That's every nu-Doom

when you play on a controller the game turn into baby mode.

everyone calls nuDoomguy "duh slayuh"

It's gay but I'm at least glad it separates him from the real doomguy

I don’t see how since I turn off aim assist. It’s the same game.

Because as we all know that every masterpiece of classic music was made by a large teams and not by single individuals?

Destiny 2 is beating it? Wow.

Are you sure about that?

It's an objective fact

the game itself detects the controller and turns itself into baby mode.
there is no point in discussing this anyway, if you play FPS games on a controller, you are playing it wrong and you are responsible for FPS games turning to trash.

But I found eternal on nightmare easier on mouse and keyboard. I’ve played every doom game except for the dark ages on both a console and pc.

It make sense, doesn't it? Piracy is free advertisement if your game is good but unknown

Don't feel bad they see you less then cattle.

You can't buy a card that can't do RT for the last 7 years. Anyone that thinks RT is some new tech is a deluded thirdie.

the eternal gameplay loop is perfect. and so is 2016 (eternal, but slower).

the parry minigame is not as fun as dashing and double jumping.

how is waifu?

elite post and truth nuke

NUDOOM games are harder if you use a controller

I never said it was new tech, but it has to be acknowledged that there is a sizeable portion of players that can't really run it or run it well enough. I don't see why the game shouldn't have lower settings that amount to Eternal's. Croteam is the only developer that seems to give a fuck about making games potato friendly while remaining pretty on the higher settings

But I found eternal on nightmare easier on mouse and keyboard.

NUDOOM games are harder if you use a controller

whoa no fuckin' shit? driving a car on triangle wheels (controller) is harder than driving on round wheels (mouse and keyboard), like its supposed to?
christ i hate controller fags with a passion.

its still harder on a controller even when the game dumbs itself down into baby mode because it knows its unplayable on a controller

jesus christ.

The game doesn’t dumb itself down when you plug a controller in. I don’t know what you’re talking about. Obviously kb&m is superior but the other anon is correct Eternal using a controller is more difficult. I know because I’ve done it using both.

Dark Ages runs 40fps in 1080p on medium settings on a RX6600. That's a budget card from 4 years ago.

why does this webm remind of one of those Ngage elder scrolls mobile games

yes it’s harder but it’s still baby mode

make up your mind

its both.

game dumbs itself down because it saw you use a controller

oh man its still kinda hard to play, i wonder why?

because you are trying to play an FPS game using a fucking joystick.

game has a dozen weapons to choose from

use nothing but upgraded Impaler and shotty

what happened to "shoot it until it dies" and not "parry the green thing until it dies"

trying

But I beat the game using both. Why does this make you seethe?

Triple the players on gamepass

Doomguy creates a safe space by turning everything not safe in that space into red mist.

i beat the game using a controller

thats not an achievement, the game is dumbed down so hard, the enemies pretty much do nothing.

Why does this make you seethe?

my seething butthurt power of 9000 suns towards niggers ruining FPS games because they play on a controller knows no limits.
fuming seething butthurt rage towards controller niggers.

On DooM™ Network/Store it has 6 gorilion players

Steam numbersfags once again with their delusion

You said the same about Assassin's Creed:Shadows flopping because of low steam numbers but it's the most successful AC game! You lost!

Maybe they shouldn't have made the game impossible to launch for 80% of steam's userbase?

hurrrrr we'll purposefully make the requirements so high nobody can play it lomao and also lets add denuvo to fuck performance some more despite eternal having no denuvo and selling 10x better

WTF why are our sales shit AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

It's a shitty bananalike but with anime girls

doomvengers ASSEMBLE

this is peak gameplay that eternal haters LOVE

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

eceleb tranny prioritized this woke slop over ex33 and gets a mental relapse. did nazi that coming amirite XD

That’s because pcs usually have higher frame rates than consoles running at 60fps and below and not because of the controller. Plug one in onto your pc playing eternal at higher fps and you’ll see.

Didn't Bethesda already get "saved" by a gorillion retards re-buying oblivion?

the plot even teleported them in front of the SLAYAH

yeaahhh that was jarring. fight ends, immediately hell priest that was nowhere to be seen is standing in the middle of the arena in a cutscene?

incorrect, most games have in-built baby modes when they detect controllers, consoles being so trash they cant run games at high FPS is another problem.

I have had an RT card for 7 years now and I've NEVER played a game with RT enabled. It's just terrible tech that's not worth using.
Forcing this shit on your entire playerbase is just full on retardation.

He's not wrong. When Doom 3 came out people were shitting on how the whole swapping to a flashlight mechanic was very un-doom like and how dumb it was that in the distant future, flashlight attached to gun apparently became lost technology.

Not doom eternal. There’s an entire video already from years ago that broke it down.

youtu.be/J4CoQQxO0vY

40 fps is literally unplayable for something that's meant to be a fast paced shooter
if you could disable RTX that card could most likely pull off 100 fps easily

Hehe based, you should probably buy the game twice just to humiliate them further

good thing that you're meant to STAND AND FIGHT instead of doing anything quickly in TDA :^)

ah yes it truly saved ubisoft ass

Yep, I think this is what hdppened. 2016 was shit to average so people said I'd give the next one a try
Then etershit came out and was shilled to the moon, now people are reluctant to give it a chance again since the last one was utter crap but praised by everyone and it's an expensive gamble just to see if "it won't be shit this time"

dark ages didnt get advertised btw. i guess they knew it was going to flop so they just dropped it in a random sunny day in may just like they did with henuas lacrifice 2.

Had to bump it up to 130% game speed on nightmare just to get a similar intensity to Eternal.
Why did they make the shit so easy?

Has Romeo and carmack ever given their thoughts on 2016/eternal & DA?

Looks like a mobile game with all the bling bling color drops.

Carmack probably likes it purely from the tech perspective. idTech678 are good engoons.

8 fucked up

It’s not a good engine until it can spawn 200 roaming enemies scattered throughout the map simultaneously while having them in-fight.

look at 2024-2025 ms games

Avowed, South of Midnight, The Outer Worlds 2, Oblivion Demastered, Towerborne, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II

they are all shit and pozzed either in narrative or gameplay or both

surely it wouldnt happen to DOOM, too?

none of the id 3D engines did that

it can spawn 200 roaming enemies scattered throughout the map simultaneously

No reason, it does what it needs to do and does it well. Also ran well on every toaster by 2016-2020 standards. It's like asking it to have good physics. Who cares about that shit in an arena shooter?

8 fucked up

Not really. It's just the forced RT shit, which is probably fixable. If you want the definition of fucked up look no further than UE5.

How is nogball this popular on pc?

Bitching about an expectation of SSD is stupid but bitching about an expectation of it being NVME is entirely reasonable

I know which is why doom 1&2 will always be superior

They cant do it only ps5 pro

i think people are just over buying games in general. nobody wants to support xbox or snoy

that could work if the games had any replayability whatsoever. now you just sub for a new release and the cancel.

No it’s because it’s on gamepass

I doubt Carmack thinks the original idTech is his magnum opus, however.

PoE2 < Football Manager LOL

HOW is Oblivion only 50% higher than Skyrim

Dark Ages is failing because Eternal split the fanbase 2016 garnered

How come the current player steam chart is always the same games?

play oblivion

hmm good coom mods arent out yet

go back to playing coomer skyrim mods

simple as

right-wing chuddhas... our game is flopping while AC:Shadows, Trannydom Cum Delivery 2 and Exposition 33 are thriving... left-won... go woke, go... top of the charts... Doing nothing didn't help...

the gameplay just didn't hook me
also they kinda went woke pandering with adding a strong wyman warrior that orders Doom Guy around for the entire game who is all covered up while all the other male characters naturally are half naked

how can you design something like this and think >yeah that looks good
the first time I saw gameplay of this game I though that it would have worked so much better as a 3rd person hack and slash similar to god of war ps4

nice mobile game

nu-doom is shit anyway

I'm having more fun with TDA than the ADHD-ridden crap that was Eternal.

how to out yourself as terminally braindamaged bedridden fucktard

his only good music was in Wolfenstein:TNO
everything else is forgettable generic music
