DOOM: The Dark Ages (2025)

DOOM: The Dark Ages (2025)

the initial D speed lines are what sell it

wow this is all Iever wanted from a doom game, a lame ass no skill punch out minigame! thanks modern games!

why is it dropping frames

Finally, a new Punchout game after all these years!

This game feels like the devs just wanted to do whatever and then put the name Doom on it
Is the BFG even in it, or was it replaced with the weapon from Legacy of Rust?

Doom is a franchise for 30 year old balding redditors who clap and shit themselves whenever le epic doom guy is on screen

Change my mind

Its in it but its now a cross bow lol

This reminds me of those giant boss fights in Goemon 3 but its much lamer

What about it?

Woah so heckin epic!1!!

DOOM is consistently the basedest fucking game seen. If this entertains you then buy two action figures and smash them together.wait actually you can probably do that in game? Jesus Christ

Ah yes, the "original vision John Carmack had for DOOM" according to zoomies and redditors defending this slop.

That's fucking gay
This game really should've been Heretic, with a lower budget of course

Why does every tranny lesbian fetishist love Doom?

Isn't Doom supposed to be about guns?

Looking back even 2016 was trash
I will only touch the originals from now on

lol wtf, he's not even hitting the enemy

people who still play any nudoom should be executed. holy fucken shit

How old are you lil niggy

this one is actually about using your captain america shield
the guns for all their interesting visual design are so boring mechanically that they really do feel like an afterthought

Carmack didn't care about game design, only the underlying technology.

18

Infinite giant demons kinda makes everything feel a little pointless desu

John Carmack never had any vision, he was always just a coding monkey

well they dropped that line of thought too, as opposed to 2016 which was also a technical masterpiece

I am a child

Why is everything homing? This is stupid

Theres no way you can look at this and not come to the realization that the vast majority of troons have a crossdressing fetish and they got brainwashed into thinking it is something more than just that.

I don't understand. Why does the mecha fight like a guy? Even the mecha gun shoots like a regular gun. No difference to doom guy except there's no shield.

BFC looks cool though

Why not just make a Doom game where you're just a random marine. That would be infinitely more cool than whatever this is. Keep it simple and tight.

I could forgive the homing if you needed any sort of precision with the parry
he presses the button when the projectile is 10 feet away from him and he gets his free good boy damage

balding redditor spotted
enjoy the doom slayer funko pop unc

Yeah well if he cared about the future of DooM he shouldn't have left to go work on vr shit.

They really really want you to use the guarding mechanics

that parry window

stop playing on easy

you must have missed the memo the players want more story focus in their doom games

VR is the future of Doom

Statistically speaking you're almost guaranteed to be much more bald at my age than I am right now

I'd be fine with this if the story was actually good instead of marvelslop.

sorry chuddy I beat UM and there's nothing you can do about it

87945357.png - 1191x1061, 1.16M

Everything dies so quickly why even bother?

I really feel they mishandled the atlan segments
Like, weren't these titans supposed to be almost immortal, to the point that they had to develop weapons just to IMMOBILIZE them since they literally couldn't be killed?

That looks so lame. I loved Doom 1 & 2. That looks retarded.

you can't just leave out the chaingun segments

don't skip unseen cutsscene

WE HAVE STATISTICS; CUSTOMERS WANT MORE MOVIE AND LESS GAME

jfc

This shit is never fun. It's like the mech segments in Titanfall.

Why is Anon Babble mad about what they wanted from Doom for over a decade?

doomguy post.jpg - 1277x701, 338.41K

didn't stop shooting

chaingun barrels heated and then cooled and then heated again

good thing carmack never made any levels then

Honestly, what's the fucking point of this? It just feels off. What game is this? Wrath of Quake-killer? Serious Doom? League of Slayer?

This would be kino if they were kaiju, but they aren't this is shit tier. What happened to shooting stuff in dark corridors with limited ammo?

The point is to sell it to casuals that dont know the first thing about game design and what makes games actually fun
These casuals only play trhough their games once anyways, they dont care, they care pure cancer and the reason we are in this mess

Do video games really make men transition into women?

I just hope they don't try to reboot Quake now that they fucked up Doom this bad

Nobody wanted this, and speculating is always way more fun than actually getting it. Becuase when you get it its full of imperfections everywhere and hidden agendas

No.

why is this game full of niggers?
was bethesda going for the gears audience?

mayjk

at least with the turret sections what would be an overheat meter in any other game is charging up a powerful shot
but then there's still no limitation on just holding the fire button and just mindlessly mowing everything down with zero challenge

He is a freak porn addict trying to blame something else to make it seem more normal

this shit should have died with the ps360 era
why do devs still do this

a right arm left arm block would be more interesting not a stupid bayonetta dodge

that's doom 3

the point is to make soidditors who will do one run in easy mode go absolutely soifaced

kek this
do they seriously not realize that?

It was obviously an excuse, they hate videogames and want to make movies.

People who grew up with Turret sections are in roles with creative control now

but no one actually liked them, right? right?

decent looking dude decides to become a fugly tranny

I can understand completely hideous dysgenic autists doing it, they truly have nothing to lose and a least get disingenuous asspats from normies. What the fuck convinces this kind of guy to to do this?

That's because the mech has a mechanic where if you dodge one of those green attacks then your gun does more damage. The dragon segments have the same mechanic. Both segments suck fucking ass

decent looking guy in 2025 means nothing

Anon Babble is one person.

That means your opinion is invalid.

imagine spending all your time searching through social media posts for random trannies and then screeching about them
to call you obsessed is a massive understatement

Carmack didn't care about game design

hes the reason the game series having demons infused with technology went forward,he was a big DnD player and the idea was from one of their campaigns

I was looking for opinions about Doom, not trannies. It just so happens there are trannies everywhere. There is probably one reading this comment and others posting in the thread.

OK now this is EPIC

two decades later and it still hasn't been topped in terms of giant animations

NOBODY fucking understands how weight works. man I picked the worst medium to be interested in

right-handed gun

spent casings ejected to the left

"here's your Doom gameplay, bro"

th*ology?? in my hecking wholesome marvelslop redditcore series???

Because it's biblical hell. It's just aliens.

*not biblical hell
goddammit

They are ejecting out of both sides. Each one of the two barrels has an ejector slot on its respective side.

dude he pressed the prompt as soon as time slowed down that's so cool and engaging!

Having one turret section can be fine desu, I just hated when they were overused to pad out game time, like in Gears of War that you'd have like five turret sections just to pad out the lenght.

STAND AND FIGHT

We need to raise the posting age to 30 desu

The basic fodder soldier, like one tier up from zombies, is unironically the most annoying enemy in the game. Its one thing to spawn zombies in for ammo/health replenishment, but these dudes at 150% game speed max bullet speed are fucking annoying when you are fighting a baron or those other dudes who replaced marauder.

This, I only want to talk with my fellow 30+ pussyfree chuds.

wasn't the only game he directed was rage?

doom

ultrakill

Little did people know violent games turn people into troons

This is unironically the best part of the game

At last. I have become

SUPER TURBO TURKEY PUNCHER III

imp fireballs curve 90 degrees or track around corners so you can parry them

God damn that looks bad..
maybe I was too harsh on doom 3..

shut up if they hear you they'll make the DLC and next two games all about that

2016 was the best story out of nudoom because aside from the part where you are locked the room with hayden literally the entire game is show dont tell

I'm halfway. It's alright. It ups the difficulty in chapter 5. Been dying a lot on nightmare.
Game is not as good as eternal

the problem is doomslayer is too op to tell an interesting story when you literally have Cthulhu appear and is killed off like a monster of the week in the next mission nothing is at stake when hes immortal

I knew I should have never played postal 2

BFG is a crossbow now

big
fucking
GUN!

is a crossbow
...........

Game is not as good as eternal

And eternal was worse than doom 2016

Based game. I just beat the first level, almost died a couple times but I was really just exploring the level and getting a feel for the game
It feels very similar to the og DOOM with the slayers
Portrait in the middle and the green/blue armor
Loving it so far. Having a BLAST.

Speedruns kill troons

NOBODY fucking understands how weight works

Everyone understands how weight works. The monsters and machines don't give a fuck about 1g. The creators don't want to make weight shit slow.

Looks fun.

Grossbow.

Looks fun.

Shut the fuck up snoy nigger and go commit a felony

He's posting himself.

What? Everybody loves vehicle segments. They're the best part of every game that has them.

Here's the actual doom successor.

desert.webm - 1000x562, 3.99M

Pretty sure this is a successor to serious sam.

I like the part where the game pauses 20 different times to give you 20 different tutorials on how to play this 1 level minigame that has 2 buttons.

Pretty sure this is a successor to serious sam.

hasn't that series been doing nothing but have prequels going further and further back into the timeline?

something like, why play shooters for story? Thats why rpgs exist.

There's a lengthy segment in the game's third act that was very obviously taken from a scrapped Quake reboot. It makes me think much of the aesthetic and design philosophy of this game was actually going to be for a new Quake, but Bethesda didn't think a new single player AAA Quake would sell and told them to make it Doom instead.

yep

NOOO NOOOOOOO THE GIANT ROBOT BOSS FIGHT HAS DIFFERENT GAMEPLAY NOOOOOO IVE NEVER PLAYED A GAME MADE BEFORE THIS DECADE NOOOOOO

does that count as "gameplay" tho?

GIANT ROBOT

that looks and feels exactly like the standard character but with a helmet

dogshit for retards

This shit is never fun

this but the complete opposite

Kek zoomers are the most pussy starved generation in history

I like mechs but this is just lame.

Mecha makes for poor games somehow

reddit: the marvel ages (over 9000!!!)

The cycler is so clearly just Q1's nail gun too

Dunno. Suddenly they were all invading the community 7 it spaces starting 6~ years ago & making all these overindulged "art" WADs with all the new GZDoom features they could cram in to hide how actually bad the WAD was from a gameplay standpoint

bro John Romeros head was floating behind a wall that's was way worse

You can turn them off, I did, not that that's your point.

you can also pretty much tell that dude with his little 3rd grader dress sense wasn't getting laid as a guy

It's the Ballistic Force Crossbow.
The BFC

i didn't play the game but i've made a couple threads and many shit stirring posts

Cosmic realm levels was the best of the game for me, especially the visuals and those loop traps with water portal

why is Anon Babbleermin like this?

3rd worlder

I thought in terms of fights, the comsic levels sucked. Fights were sparse, with lots of downtime.

boring rip-off

174113.jpg - 622x405, 79.25K

I thought I’d play these sections and hate it the entire time but the boringness was outweighed by the cool factor and the fact that they don’t last long

I wonder how it will hit on future playthroughs

an infinite arena mode can’t come soon enough, modded or official

IMG_7955.png - 500x594, 251.2K

the sections are aesthetically interesting but the gameplay depth is nil. both sections have one kind of enemy and a very basic attack you do to kill them. dodge when you see a green flash and otherwise hold down mouse 1. that's it, that's all that's going on there.
it's just filler. it's really, really obvious filler.

this fucking sucked too
and then they fixed it with the tank in the dlc

City of Ry'uul and Belly of the Beast have great encounters

3rd worlders can't run this game at all anon

file.png - 1298x516, 98.33K

Both of those levels have like 2 major arenas with lots of downtime. They are also very short.

yes
troons in denial

making two shit games in a row

Gameplay wise it's really boring and repetitive. Where is no option for any variation, it's "either play it like tip notification showing you or just press quit". Those levels almost feel like they are on rails.

Glad someone finally mentions it. You don't feel like you're piloting a skyscaper sized mech at all. The mech chaingun that gets dropped for you also sounds laughably bad, it has zero impact.

All levels in this game have major arenas that are split by connectors or portals. Man, Doom 2016 and Eternal doing that too.

You don't have to kill that many demons in TDA.
I did a fully upgraded run that lasted 3 hours from start to finish, and there are plenty of big demons that aren't required to be killed.
You only need to kill certain demons to spawn the boss demon or lower the morale to zero.
It's interesting how little you have to kill on a second play-through.

It sounds cool, and then you play it and it's horribly tedious, simple, and boring

post the zelda ones

2nd parry was something behind you

very cool. no wonder its shit.

this game plays like a 360 shovelware game

Kino game
How can niggers compete

they can't even run the damn game lmao
hence the seethe
current consoles can manage raytracing, and you have a horde of retards who still don't have a gpu that can do raytracing at all after 5 years
let that sink in

yeId81Y.jpg - 694x754, 130.65K

This game's plot feels like a lame filler episode or spinoff movie and its gameplay reminds me of the attempts to "bring back" fun, speedy gameplay from 2010-ish era that all got embarrassed by 2016.

I know John Romero, and he would approve of this.

I know him too, he's been to my house a few times before. I think he would "approve" of it in the same way that most modern people approve - just because it's socially expected for you to do so. I don't think he cares

not giving a shit is true acceptance anyway

Sort of. It's acceptance but it's not the same as eager approval. Going around encouraging people to do something, going out of your way to congratulate them or give support - it's different than just saying nothing unless asked to. I tend towards this view myself since I don't really give a shit if someone else wants to mutilate themselves as long as it doesn't affect me. I think most people are the same

Adored Doom 3

Loved Doom 2016

Eternal was a little too much on the silly side to enjoy

Have no interest in Dark Ages

Am I just getting jaded as I get older or is the series getting worse?
No, I haven't read the thread yet.

If I like FPS Melee fighters like Vermintide will I like this game? Can I just pretend it's not Doom and enjoy it that way?

that's how i feel too so i get what you mean

I know him too, he's been to my house a few times before

explain, the faker the better

you're just getting slow. They added a setting to slow down the game speed for geriatric boomers in TDA

hur dur git good scrub

How charmingly retro. I almost expected a dubstep soundtrack.

>Adored Doom 3

Nah you just have brain damage

lol, lmeo

i'm a zoomer and feel the same way about all 4. it's just not interesting. mace & shield isn't doom, medieval land isn't doom, lots of cutscenes isn't doom, vehicles aren't doom...

This looks so floaty, the hits don't have any satisfying impact
It's 2025 and devs are still releasing skyrim

What the hell have they done to doom?

Eternal went full retard both before and after the DLC. Dark Ages didn't fix the problem. It's not Doom anymore. Doom 4 Call of Duty edition could have been better than this.

The game is visually stunning. Why are Switchfags pretending it looks worse than Eternal?

plane sections

turret sections

punch out sections

When's the gay porno, Hugo?
