Coming to Nintendo Switch - 2028
While I don’t really like to play newer Doom games (still would rather play original Doom or Doom 2), they really look great and metal as fuck.
Any chance for Heretic/Hexen easter eggs?
Anyone remember when Doomguy was a Space Marine?
He still is, but as he’s become a kind of mythical figure in gaming history he has also become so in universe.
Reboot Doomguy hasn’t been a space marine for almost a decade now. He’s always been a Titan sent by gods.
There’s at least one audiolog in Eternal that suggests he is, against all odds, mostly human. I don’t know if they might be retconning that.
That explains it. I grew up with the old stuff where he was just angry
Honestly that’s a way better story
Yeah, the gameplay looks awesome. But the story seems dumb. But then again Doom did come from a dungeons and dragons campaign.
In the end the gameplay has always been the more important part of the Doom games.
Yes but also: this looks cool as hell
Well, I mean he still resembles some Space Marines I know of.
I’m going to upset someone and I apologize. This game feels cheap to me. Like someone took too many liberties with the game style. I like the doom games so I hope this doesn’t fall on its face.
You sound like me talking about Eternal, just wasn’t the Doom for me.
Aww fuckyeah!
Fuck yeah. Absolutely loved the first 2, absolutely gonna love this. Time for another Eternal playthrough
The first 2? You don’t mean Doom and Doom 2, do you? Fuck, I’m old.
I actually meant Doom: The Board Game and the Doom movie starring Dwayne Johnson
SEMPER FI! MOTHER FUCKER! -Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
I’d venture to say that ID has not yet released a bad DOOM game, however they did almost make Call of DOOM. Under Microsoft’s leadership I’d say they’re at risk of making the worst DOOM game ever, but we’ll have to wait and see
I don’t think we need transformers and flying in doom tbh, but it looks like we’ll have to deal with it now.
Otherwise this joke on a hexen reboot is the ultimate meme of the reboot. And is much more intriguing than doing “doom eternal plutonia experiment”.
The ancient holy wars part of the lore that you read in sentinel prime is the most intriguing part of the doom guy’s story. Links back to seraphim too. Walking through sentinel prime and reading all those things I really felt like I’d like to have seen those days. Oh boy, here we come!
Poor Bob. That looked like it hurt.
He obviously got over it though.
Looks like we need him again.
I really liked the first reboot, but felt Eternal overcomplicated it and made it like a memory game of working out which gun was best for each enemy, which isn’t really what I wanted from it. Too much finicky precision (like shooting the goddamn turrets off things), and not enough wanton carnage.
It took the story way too seriously as well, and the most enjoyable thing from the first game’s story was somebody starting some exposition, followed by Doomguy smashing the radio.
Just wasn’t feeling it as much as I was with the first. It was only the soundtrack that got me through it tbh, and with Mick Gordon very much not on speaking terms with id Software, I’ll keep my expectations lowered for this.
Looks like more doom which is all right in my book. Now If they can keep out the always online and live service bullshit out of this one and focus on single player it might turn out to be yet another good doom game. Not sure about the dragon and mecha though, I would rather not have any vehicles, mounts and anything like that in Doom games.
Aside from the gameplay of the recent Doom games being top tier I really enjoyed how they tied the original story into things. Was really cool to come to learn the tie in as I progressed through the game. This looks great I’m ready to rip and tear
Ooooof I’m fuckin in.
