DOOM (2016) was universally appreciated by gamers, zoomers and boomers alike, and people are excited about DOOM Eternal.
So my question is, why is Yas Forums the only place on the entire internet that has a small group of autists who hate the games for dumb reasons? It's almost like they don't hate the game for those reasons, but rather, they actively try their hardest to find reasons to justify their hatred of these games.
So, is anyone capable of giving an explanation for this phenomenon? Or is "autism" the only explanation we can give?
Can someone answer this question?

Yas Forums just likes being contrarian. They have nothing better to do than autistically sperg about optional skins and other irrelevant shit.

Because the entire goddamn point of anonymous image boards is to get (you)s and the best way to do that is to be a contrarian asshole.

Its not doom.
Its just another case of an old game being being brought back to life like Frankenstein monster, because plebs will buy it if they see a popular name in spite of the game being souless garbage.

Yas Forums hasn't been a video game board in nearly a decade. It's a contrarian/trolling board. 90% of people who post about games here haven't even played them.

The biggest thing is Yas Forums likes Tortanics, I really don't take it too seriously and there's enough people wanting to actually talk about the game that it does help drown it out.
You should see VR threads, it was like this for years but once Half Life: Alyx got announced it's been a shit show.
The biggest thing is that people will just lie about it, making it extremely obvious they haven't actually played what they're criticizing, and when you make an actual point or call them out on it it's 'cope, shill' or 'seething'
It's just how the board is.
I wouldn't be surprised if the people the most vocal and upset do end up playing the game because they're just playing the Yas Forums haha funny (you) game.
All the anger and vitriol on here isn't an indication of anything really.
Just how we user's are.

The point is the original doom wasn't a soulless cash grab. Why would anybody even want to play new doom when it does nothing new. Its just another bland shooter that predictable in every way that a cash grab should be.

I personally didn't enjoy doom very much because everything about it felt repetitive after a while of it feeling great to play and I didn't like how the action kept getting interrupted. You go from killing everything in sight to doing platforming and the switch between them is really jarring, also the platforming sections were annoying. I will say that the multiplayer was a lot of fun. But I didn't like the old doom either so why the fuck am I in this thread exactly?
Ethan Wood
I really liked 2016 but wasnt more than a really fun campaign. Thing is, is that its not a proper sandbox like og DOOM.

Wow man, the platforming/jumping/climbing part at 08mn53 looks soooooo fun, I can't wait! That's literally the best Doom game ever! It's the same as the old one but better!
Eli Gonzalez
Other fora tend to be separated by board topic meaning only the autists for that specific game would hang around there and most of them will defend shit to the death.
Here, there are individual threads about different games and more meta topics in regards to platform and peripherals. The autists here are for games in general in other words, meaning not everyone likes your shitty shooter trash.
Understand now? Good.

2016 was kinda shitty desu. Copy pasted arenas, QTE enemies, terrible story, cringe incel visuals for angry metal loners etc.
It was mostly hated upon release, but incels found a way to create a false perception of critical acclaim. They have a lot of free time.
Nicholas James
That's some impressive mental gymnastics, user. Can't you just accept that a lot of people liked it?
Lincoln Edwards
Contrarian as per usual. I've been here since 200X, and believe you me, if Doom 2016 wasn't as succesful as this, Yas Forums will be head over heels with it until the sequel comes out, where it would be regarded as the one that ruins Doom 2016 (and the whole series) forever.
Elijah Bennett
Holy fuck. They really did it. They ripped off Shadow warrior 2's (remake) movement system. That's fucking hilarious.
Colton Powell
Is there a single game that doesn't get hated by some anons on Yas Forums? No there isn't.
Jack Price
See this is what I mean.
They say something disingenuous or inflammatory or wacky and I say oh noooo that's not true and I reply to them and they reply with 'cope seething dilate shill' and we reply back and forth and back and forth.
It's just a game, we're all just stuck playing it.
It really doesn't matter at the end of the day.
It's like being in a cartoon, no matter what happens everything will reset back to normal for next week's episode and we'll keep doing it until the sun burns out.

Jesus this is painful.
Half the autists will say it's nothing like the original Doom and it sucks because of it, then the other half are saying it is exactly like the original Doom and it sucks because of it.
It's not hard to see why society in general is fucked up.

I tried playing 2016 because shills wouldn't stop praising it. The game was fine until I got bored of the retarded platforming and the shooting gallery design of the game where you just walk from arena to arena and then fight a handful of demons that slowly spawn one after the other. I thought it was a mediocre game but not really bad and much better than the garbage the industry shits out every year so overall it was a positive game.
Doom eternal was announced and shills wouldn't stop talking about how it was heavily inspired by doom 64, my favorite and best doom imo, so I was really curious about it. Then the trailer drop and surprise surprise, eternal takes every single bad aspect of 2016 and makes it worse. Platforming sections, retarded attachments and perks and whatever, the same shooting gallery design, obnoxious hud with retarded "follow the waymarker" level design, cutscenes npcs and exposition out of the wazoo. The more I learn about eternal the more disgusted I am at it and the fact shills are shitting up the board in full force is a big red sign for me that this game is going to be garbage, not that I needed more than two awful trailers to confirm it anyways.

Hi, welcome to Yas Forums.
If you post something positive about a video game, you will be called a fag and a shill. If you post something negative about a video game you will be called a fag and a shill.
Nothing anyone says here has any value. This board is only for very thinly failed porn threads designed to make you reverse image search fan art to cause you to jerk off. All other threads will be shit-posted to death by the same couple dozen autists over and over again.

Played all the classics and loved them to death, haven't played 2016 but I think it looks neat.
From what I've seen the biggest difference between both iterations is the level design. Classic is more open ended and maze-like, while 2016 is more claustrophobic and has more verticality. I feel like a middle point could be reached, but I'm not sure if the devs at id are even interested in doing that.
I must say that I prefer 2016's version of Doomslayer.
Jacob Rivera
True. Pic very related.

What's stopping you from playing it? It's worth trying if you're interested.

Doom16 really isn't that good. The pacing is off (due to those kill modes) and level layout aren't that interesting.

Correct, it's mostly a performance and AI thing.
I do prefer the mobility and wide open spaces of the original Doom games, but Doom 2016 does a good job of making the combat fun, making you want to fight, and it tries its best to make you feel like you aren't trapped in a room to fight even though you technically are.
>I feel like a middle point could be reached, but I'm not sure if the devs at id are even interested in doing that.
It seems like they're trying to do that with Eternal, arenas are much larger and they're trying to add more in between fights so it doesn't feel like it's so stop and go. They talk about criticisms about 2016 in interviews and it really seems like they did what they could to make the same game but bigger and with a better understanding on what people didn't like about Doom 2016. and how to make it better.
I definitely have my gripes about Doom 2016 so it get's me excited whenever I hear the developers or people who really enjoyed Doom 2016 say that it's hard to even go back to Doom 2016 after playing Eternal.
Brody Morgan
That's neat to hear.
I've also heard Eternal is gonna need a Bethesda account, tho.
Jaxson Turner
Man, I'm so glad Eternal is not called Doom 2.
Having to say Doom 2016 so many times is fucking exhausting.
Fucking hate this naming convention for reboots.
Jacob Robinson
Doom 2016 was an okay game. Let's be honest. Wasn't compelling enough to finish. Not bad, just kinda meh. It was well made structurally though...I guess

Jayden Rodriguez
You know I'm really not sure on that.
I really doubt you'll need make one to play the base game, it's probably just multiplayer.
That's just how it is these days sadly.
Have to make an Activation account for CoD
Epic account for Fortnite
Ubisoft account for Siege
EA account for, whatever they put out
And an Xbox live account for MCC on PC.
It's fucking dumb but at least it's free. It's not like I haven't made a throw away account for lesser shit like an old ass forum for a download or something.

>The point is the original doom wasn't a soulless cash grab.
To be fair, Doom kinda was a cash crab as was the first Quake. Shareware episode had the best maps and introduced the most the monsters and weapons. Full version just added 2 more weapons, 2 new enemies and 2 new bosses. Even the maps didn't reach even near the quality of first episode. Doom 2 again was made exactly only to get cash while making Quake. Even almost half of the maps were quickly put together. Not saying that they were bad games though. Hell, they might be the games I love the most. Modability and the community elevated the both games into legendary status. So many good map packs and content.
Brayden Williams
Yas Forums only cares about japanes games, cause it makes them "elite" for not following trends, it is all about muh anime and jerking it to muh waifus, you could make a game where you stare at animu tittes for 100 hours and it would be goty by Yas Forums weeb standards

Not gonna buy it. Might pirate it later down the line to try it. Same shit I do with any products from Bethesda, EA, or Ubisoft.

Matthew Robinson
Because being a fan of Doom 1/2 was an easy way to display ecred and anything that jeopardized that nerd dick swinging was met with condescension.
Its one of the reasons why Brutal Doom became such a meme (aside from the creator) and why Doom 2016 gets vitrol from a very vocal subset of autists here. When Doom 2016 launched the most common way to try and discredit it as a Doom game was to post slaughter webms as if slaughter wads aren't niche bastardizations of Doom themselves. Its literally just "Nooooooo my secret club"

>Why would anybody even want to play new doom when it does nothing new.
Well it gave us more melee-oriented combat and added upgradable weapons and armor in semi-rpg style first time in official Doom game. Most of complaints are made, because those new things were added, and that it wasn't "vanilla" enough. Also bringing back few of the retro fps elements that were missing in Doom 3, making it more unique combination of modern and retro, which helped it to distinguish from other modern shooters.
