So I just finished RAGE.

Yeah I know there are prob 1235123 threads and posts on this, tough, get over it.

What the hell just happened? Apart from the obvious gripes (drivers, gfx bugs and so on), not to mention the lack of substance (hey it's iD afterall) what the fsck just happened with the last mission? I was quite moved when the game started, when I got to the first town, then the second.. Dead City totally blew me away, then it just started getting dull.. and then, a while later I find myself at the last mission..

Walk through glizy hi-tek chambers.. what I can only describe as the internals of some guy's engine mod. Then shoot lots of little fast paced mutants, not overly hard when you have pocket rockets and wing sticks, activate some switches, elevators.. and then..

a 30 second clip, that's it!

WHERE WAS THE BOSS FIGHT?
WHERE WERE THE THRILLS?
WHERE WERE THE SURPRISES?

WHERE WAS THE PASSION?

I'm sorry but the last mission should be the BEST mission or at least something moving, interesting. Did they lose interest half way through the game outsource the last half to a team of monkeys?

Never thought I'd rant like this about an iD Software title. Doom 3 at least gave me some THRILLS even though the gameplay sucked, Quake 4 was haunting! And now, this.

In my opinion at least 70% or even more games have k@k endings...
Some of them dont even feel like endings, will there be a sequel or did the ending really suck?
Like i said, most games have k@k endings...

k@k endings mmmmmmm
God of War III
but hey you didn't pump all that time into a game just to finish it and get a cool reward, like a cool ending
o wait...
 
Well, I started RAGE last night and finished it now, a day later. I agree, it was quite dull after the first half or so. I also agree with the ending "boss": Just a few mutants and and wing stick thingies made short work of them. In fact I went in with a whole ton of weapons and ammo, and started only using my x2 ammo for my authority gun. I started with about 300 rounds, and ended with about 700... hardly using it (playing on normal). Never even fired the new gun that was given to me just before I left for the mission. So I was quite surprised when the end credits starting popping up. For a similar type of scene and game, I much prefered Borderlands anyday.
 
The game doesn't lack the surprise element completely..

SURPRISE! That half arsed mission was the game ending :mad: wtf

It certainly got me :D

The megatexture idea is cool but this game is full of epic fail. To me it was worse than duke nukem forever.
 
The only (relatively) recent game that I can think of where the last mission was the best of the game was Mass Effect 2. Even Gears of War 3 had sort of an easy, anti-climax last mission.
 
I got seriously bored with this game. Its a shame cause doom is one of my favorite fps series ever and I was just expecting more from this. IMO its a case of style over substance cause this is a very beautiful. Hope we can see this engine used for doom 4
