Is that supposed to be one of those squeaky hammers?

Re: March 20th 2020
Hot take, I preferred the idea of fighting an evil wall to what we're working with now. This other thing isn't as conceptually interesting.
Sorry. I'm sorry. I'm just mad because I'm not going to play this anytime soon and I'm just so goddamn bad at Doom 2016 right now. I'm sorry
e: I have auto aim on and I'm still missing enemies with the super shotgun at point blank range.

Doom Eternal looks kinda terrible from the videos I've seen of it, it's all extremely linear, and feels the need to also have quest markers, and has no real exploration. Secrets are literally question marks in the air, and it's just so much the opposite of anything I like about the doom series, even more so than doom 4 was.

Okay then yeah I'll give it a pass. I'm definitely not a fan of nudoom in general, though I did like aspects of it, I've never felt like replaying it or finishing it.

Re: March 20th 2020
Yeah it does remove itself away from the more open levels from 2016 like Foundry and Argent Facility into a more linear path through levels, even when you're crossing through the same area a bunch of times or exploring to find secrets and other optional stuff. While I do miss some of those levels, the exploration and secret hunting, as well as the general gameplay is still enthralling enough that it's not that much of a big deal, more of a nitpick imo. Also once you reach the end of a level, you get a fast travel system to warp to different parts of the level to go and look for whatever secrets or anything you may have skipped over or missed.Gloomy Rube wrote: ↑Mon Mar 23, 2020 1:50 pmDoom Eternal looks kinda terrible from the videos I've seen of it, it's all extremely linear, and feels the need to also have quest markers, and has no real exploration.

The 'quest markers' can be turned off if you so desired, and secrets being literal question marks are basically there to indicate that the secret is there, without revealing what it is exactly, and leaving the player to try and figure out how to reach it themselves.

Re: March 20th 2020
Apparently the soundtrack was originally going to be speed metal, but it ended up being basically torture in combination with the overall pace of the game, so they went for the same style as 2016. I have to say I do like the current score.DaikatunaRevengeance wrote: ↑Tue Mar 24, 2020 1:12 pmi tried doom eternal, it's alright, but too frantic for me

Re: March 20th 2020
it does, however, include a serious bomb
you light it and it blows up in your hands and it eliminates all the enemies on the screen
it's very serious
