So where does the doom series go from here?
Future of Doom
Needs to go back to the 2016 formula with running and double jumping. That game was so good because it didn't force you to play with certain weapons. You just used whatever you had.
back to DOOM 2 wads. we forget reddit 2016+
More gimmicks like usual. The slowmo was incidental to parrying and melee in Dark Ages but maybe next they'll try to focus on that and make a slowmo focused game like Max Payne or FEAR.

It was ass, terrible environmental designs, terrible enemy designs, terrible weapon designs, locking you into epic kill animations every 3 seconds, extremely limited mod support and every single fight being an arena between enemies that all behave almost exactly the same and have nearly the same degree of mobility. Play more classic DOOM if you want to see well designed levels where the specific behaviors of enemies are utilized to make each fight interesting.
Also, they fucked up the way the secret elevators behave in the E1M1 classic area, which is unforgiveable.
Hibernation for ten years then another reboot.
I want to see them go away from the closed arena fight sequences. The movement and basic gunplay is fine so they can keep that.
hopefully into the trash so they can stop shitting on it like they have done for the past 10 years
Yeah the dark ages feels like Hugo got told “alright this is your last doom game champ…” and then he shoved everything he could into his capeshit story.
Get rid of the climbing animations, that shit is stupid and interrupts gameplay, just make the platforms you can jump to the actual height of your jumps.
I want them to stop with the fucking challenges and upgrade currencies.
I agree and it’s not something I really paid attention to before. Good thinking.
Trying way too hard to fit in, nobody believes you actually played the janky originals you pathetic manchild
Zoomers need “something to work towards” which is why they put the shitty rpg mechanics in.

shut the fuck up
Go back
We’re going to get Doom 3 pt. 2 in 10 years. Just one massive mars base with roaming enemies.
But metadoom is epic.
Yeah, including mantling. I like it for immersive sims but not in Doom. Double jump is fine I guess but I'm not crazy about it.
Unrelated, but it was also very weird how sprinting in Dark Ages also makes you jump higher instead of just farther.
original had running too you poser manchild
Did you see me complain about the sprinting itself? You are an embarrassment.
making metadoom more epic
Where did he say anything about running?
shillbot got a false positive
Why are you seething
rude
Why are you going to bed.

So where does the doom series go from here?
indefinite hiatus
it was already flushed down the toilet with 16
it went through the u-bend with eternal
its now in the septic system with what ever the new one is called
next comes the ultimate sewer level of all time: a sewer game
eternal too fast
doom woke ages too slow
Next doom will be turn based for these retards.
2d roguelike
Is it viable to go melee combat only in this game? If I’m parrying half the time why wouldn’t I just run up to enemies and just cut them in half?
Nah, it will just be a text adventure where you just type in shoot over and over until the game ends.
metroidvania or otherwise open-ended levels
emphasize mobility, don't erase it. you can make it somehow easier if you want but holy shit stop listening to braindead dads who start convulsing at fps verticality
bring back 2016/eternal swapping. it's fun, simple as.
give the player more fun ways to interact with enemies. loosely, think dark messiah and games like that. combat should be scrappier and more improvised. give people room to be creative with their kills.
eternal and dark ages both emphasize stunlocking bigger demons. stop doing this. shooting things until they die like 2016 isn't that engaging, but cycling cooldowns to make things stand perfectly still isn't perfect either.
entirely new setting. please, stop jerking off doomguy. he doesn't need it. 2016 nailed it with nobody knowing who doomguy is. Just put him in another new dimension where the natives have no fucking idea what his damage is. that's where he's at his best, not powerscaling wank
Assuming they make another one soon it'll probably be another hard pivot into a new direction.
powerscaling wank started in 2016 with its "slayer" lore
I want a Doom game about fighting and killing the Ars Goetia the famous demons of Christianity. And I want a separate game about Doom Guy fighting the Seven Deadly Sins. Also I want a boss fight against Baphomet.
There's so many different types of demons I'm disappointed Doom doesn't use them. Even more when you include different cultures.
I hated the story especially that annoying Ugly Mannish Woman Mary Sue who within her ugly mannish body somehow has a power that is superior to the Doom Slayer. So the Doom games are about to become woke shit with that shitty Feminism angle. No one liked that ugly mannish cunt that has internal super powers that make the Doom Slayer look weak if she can train to harness the power.
it felt cute in that game because it was referencing what doomguy got up to between 64 and 2016, and the only other character in the game is hayden, who hates you. in eternal and especially dark ages it feels dumb
