Doom Eternal

I don't think it'll come to GP, I think we just get the base game and not the addons or dlc

Maybe wait for black Friday deals then ?

Sure why not, the thing I want more doom and less commander keen, so that is still my mine gripe with it. Doom eternal was good for wat it was but they could have literally with less parkouring and more shooting, there's also the kill4ammo that lingers in the back. I guess at this stage I'll like more arcade shooter like painkiller over NuDoom for NuKids like NuMortalKombat. sigh.
 
The new doom defo falls away from it's traditional roots that's for sure :)

Hence why I got it with my GP, no way I would go waste R800 for the game for just the single player side
 
Might do another run of DE with this

Doom Eternal more ammo mod

ve been playing Doom Eternal lately and while the game looks gorgeous and runs well even in 4K, one thing that keeps bothering me is the ammo situation. Hugo Martin and the folks at id software have…

imho still **** having to commander keen chainsaw your way through 'hell' instead of pumping each demon full white hot lead. but...
 
In the end, now with DLC part 1 and 2 out, this game was quite the achiever. I still haven't played it.

Will there be another Doom?

It will be quite a blast to see Commander Keen resurrected.

But is it really doom?

When I look back to doom2016 and up to doom 1 it seems as if they subtly changed even retconned what matters.

For example

Sounds: it now feels like I've walked into a casino. It's just too 'chirpy'?

Boss (final): a humanoid? Whatever happened to the original idea of the maurader or fallen/corrupted doom slayers. In fact shouldn't the final boss and inner circle be made out of demons or the abstract (think hell raiser)

Confetti and environment: wtf is this? Just exploding and loud colors everywhere. Where is the blood, the gibs, the deep and dark settings. Rotting flesh? Icon of sin things etc.

Music: unts unts unts? Sigh...

Setting: feels like skyrim gone warhammer and had a halo child. It simply isn't doom or at least what doom is made up with.

0% I'm going tag dlc. Hopefully the next 'doom' will be doom, because at this stage even the doom3 joke rings true:

Doom3 was better

Aptly summed up :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
 
Finally started playing this. It's visually stunning, the fights are intense and the mechanics solid (although the double dash followed by pressing E to grab onto a wall does take some getting used to). Jury is still out on whether it is better (for me) than Doom 2016.

Agree with @Herr der Verboten on the setting though. I'm still early into the game but there was this one area where I walked out of a Citadel and swore I'd taken a wrong turn and ended up in Rivia. It was all leafy green bushes and forests. Was half expecting Geralt to come trotting by on Roach*. Hoping it gets more menacing and gritty though.

Time I fired this game up again, if only for the soundtrack.

Anyone looking for a classic Doom channel on YouTube must check out a YouTuber called Decino


He does play-throughs of mega wads (like Sunlust, Back 2 Saturn X and Valiant) and also live streams slaughter maps like Okuplok and Sunder. In addition, his analysis videos of Doom's programming are fantastic and informative. Highly recommended.
