I agree, fuck fun.

Ok but how is the gameplay?

>THIS CHARACTER NEEDS TO STAY A "NORMAL SOLDIER" DESPITE THWARTING COUNTLESS DEMONIC INVASIONS BY HIMSELF!

This is the most worthless fucking nitpicky complaint I have ever seen. Normal humans to kill billions of supernatural horrors by themselves, you absolute dumbfuck.

Normal humans don't kill billions of supernatural horrors by themselves*

Imagine posting this, embarrassing.

what the fuck is realistic about a guy killing thousands of demons single handed who gives a fuck move on

Are you saying they made Doomguy an immortal demigod to explain why he can do the things he does, or that hell views him as an immortal demigod they come to fear because of his actions?

The first would be stupid, the latter is based.

Play 64

Chronicles of Riddick also did this and fucked the whole character up.

I mean technically he isn't fully human since E1M8. He dies at the end of Phobos Anomaly.

Who cares when the game treats trans folx as 2nd class citizens?

its the same guy. Wait, did they actually wrote him to grow? What a fucking morons, Of course he should be still the same normal human who can't do shit and no one should know about him even that he killed half a hell.

Sounds pretty based to me, tranny.

>Dies
>Goes to hell
>Comes back
>Not unrealistic
Even in this place you are a shitstain

You did enough to reply. Fucking homo.

vastly inferior to 1993 doom

No, he's being a hyperbolic idiot. Argent Energy gave him super strength, speed and endurance, but he's still a mortal being. It's still his skill that brings him through, he can just sustain it for eternity now, unlike before.

Humanity and Hell have come to view him as a possible god. A manifestation of Humanities Rage and unwillingness to give up. Uncompromising, unfaltering. He will kill, because he must.

Halo with gore and a really fucking annoying pinata system that breaks the flow of the game

you are the type of person who sees solid snake and says NOO YOU CANT HAVE HIM BENCH PRESS A METAL GEAR HE IS JUST A NORMAL SOLDIER

who cares, after being so used to something its nice to be thrown a curve ball

Doomguy's voice was fucking amazing

Imma put thoughts out on this shit now since I know these Doom threads are going to be a clusterfuck for the next two weeks.

>Movement feels faster than 2016, which is nice, but it could do with being a little fast.
>The boost and the double jump are fun to play around with and add nice options for combat.
>I think the map design actually suffered from the movement changes as maps are now a messy congregation of ideas
>Visually the maps are a mess as well, suffering from a shotgun blast of different visual themes
>They seem to have mercifully cut down on that gore nest shit from 2016
>The linear-arena-linear-arena level model from 2016 is carried over, for better and worse
>The bulk of the new enemies are fairly well designed mechanical
>Just like in 2016, the upgrade system can fuck right off
>Tutorial shit is way more in your face this time around
>The story is a mess
>Still not really a fan of doomguy being some messianic figure instead of just a really angry normal dude.
>Eternal is much more focused on cut-scenes (or cut aways) and 'cinematic' moments than 2016 was, which I disapprove of
>The active enemy limit is still too low, console limitations are still kneecapping this.
>Mick Gordon does another good job with the soundtrack

The core loop of the gameplay is solid and fun, but I can't see myself remembering much of it in 5-10 years. There's a lot about this game that feels messy and disconnected, like there was no core vision governing development like there was with 2016.

>TLDR
NU-Doom +: fun but flawed.

This is exactly like star wars prequels when you think about it: taking totally inconsequential shit and deifying it. Doomguy's appeal was in how mundane and normal you were as a character, just angry enough to fight through all the demons, now he's some fucking badass superhero, which has the opposite effect and makes the whole thing stupid as fuck.

At this rate we´re 1-2 games away from him becoming the God Emperor of Mankind.

Remember that saying?
"Literally too angry to die?"

I think this includes aging.

It'd be pretty retarded if no one noticed doomguy was good at killing demons after he went to hell and killed the devil twice

Zoom 2016 and 2020 are fucking stupid. And fuck Bethesda.

I CLAPPED
I CLAPPED WHEN I SAW THE REFERENCE TO THE REDDIT COMIC

>Doomguy's appeal was in how mundane and normal you were as a character,
Said no one ever.

>Doomguy's appeal was in how mundane and normal you were
>"OKAY GAMERS DID YOU KNOW DOOMGUY'S CANONICAL WALKING SPEED IS LITERALLY TEN MILLION BAJILLION GORILLION LIGHTYEARS PER PICOSECOND WHILE CARRYING A QUINTILLION TONS OF GEAR???????"
>"CONCLUSION: DOOMGUY IS F#CKING BADASS"
>"THAT'S A GAME FACT"
Retard.

And it's pretty retarded that humanity now views him as a demigod, when he was just an angry soldier who made proper use of the incredible weapons and energy already available at the time. It gets even worse when nudoom wanks him off with the lore of his nu suit

>Doomguy's appeal was in how mundane and normal you were as a character
Fucking no

>conveniently leaving out the rest of the sentence
you caused this deification of this character that was meant to just be a blank slate, now it's reached levels of self-parody that are incredibly embarrassing and stupid, just admit it to yourselves already.

He's been objectively superhuman (running at double olympic sprint indefinitely while carrying 50 rockets and a minigun) the whole time, it's just other characters have seen it now.

>humanity now views him as a demigod
They don't? The demons do. Because he keeps murdering them and has been doing so for eternity. They're terrified of him, he's the fucking boogeyman.

If literally one man started repelling an entire demonic invasion by himself I GUARANTEE you people would begin worshiping him as the second coming of Christ. You are really fucking stupid to think otherwise. It makes perfect sense he'd have a cult develop around him.

No the reason these feats weren't acknowledged by the game outside of the demon-killing was because it's a fucking 90s videogame and ID didn't really give that much of a shit. You moved fast because it's more fun to dodge projectiles and risky when surrounded by pools of lava. You carried every weapon at once because that was standard for games at the time.

>Guy literally saves humanity from their own sins.
>WTF WHY IS HE BEING DEIFIED?! THAT MAKES NO SENSE!

Holy shit dude.

>Bro Doomguy is totally on par with Master Chief
>Bro Doomguy is totally on par with Samus goddamn Aran
Years of this shit just to see people pull a 180 to complain about a game that they probably bought anyway.

It's kind of weird how none of the enemies run away from you with all the lore tab hype. At least in halo the grunts panicked if you got a multikill.

Too bad nobody on mars (or in hell) was alive to see him do it.

>kills the equivalent of satan twice
>actually dies but keeps killing demons after he goes to hell anyway AND fights his way out of hel tool
>these feats do not make him a candidate for being considered more than an average joe
You are the blackest retard gorilla nigger.

>Power fantasy game leans heavily on the power fantasy.
>Whine about it.

Do you also whine about water being too wet?

Its the same guy after a timeless trip through hell.

Dude, people deify an actor simply because he's good at his job while being incredibly humble (Keanu Reevers). Heck, even I do commend him for being like that, even if not to a worshipping degree.

What do you think people are gonna do when a hellish invasion that defeats all conventional military forces and threatens to turn everyone into tortured, yet mindless slaves is getting thwarted seemingly by one, buff dude with an incredible arsenal of weaponry?

Except for the fucking goverment that contacted him during the events of Doom 2, telling him where he can reach the source of the demonic invasion? Also people in Eternal are aware of his existence too because there's probably footage of him in action being broadcasted to the people in shelters? Fucking Christ, talk about bitching about something you literally have no clue about.

Going into this game with this massive hype around your character makes losing feel less like a struggle and more like a non-canon blueballing. Games based off movies have this problem too

>tfw will never be in a comfy demon shelter watching doomguy chainsaw cacos

I personally think you should make this exact thread about 5 more times. That way there 5 more chances for anons to laugh at your bitch tears

>If literally one man started repelling an entire demonic invasion by himself I GUARANTEE you people would begin worshiping him as the second coming of Christ
Your post almost implies if this scenario happened now. You're completely disregarding that doom happens in the far future when humans have access to ridiculous weapons and protection. Yes it obviously makes sense that doomguy would have some type of cult that almost worships him for being good at using this technology. It doesn't make sense though when majority of the normal people he comes in contact with seem to view him the same way

Shouldn't have spewed the Doomguy memes, then. This is all on you if you ever partook in a discussion about how strong Doomguy is and perpetuated any of the circulating memes.

It's the same doomguy

why not introduce a different marine to take on Hell instead?

Does the PS4 version support m+kb, and is the online play crossplay?

In Boom Doom you don't fucking zoom like in Zoom Doom. In Boom Doom you actually moved as if you were utilizing the boom, not fucking zoom. In Zoom Doom all you fucking do is zoom and no boom.

>The linear-arena-linear-arena level model from 2016 is carried over, for better and worse
Shit. At least tell me that there are a few more branching paths between the arenas.

Because the fact that it is wrong undermines the entire rest of the argument.
Plus, mundane, pissed-off characters made supernatural while still maintaining the core of what technically maintains them as the underdog is goat characterization. Even before the events of the first game he's literally punched a man to death. From moment zero in these games he's a fucking MARINE, depicted as a wall of goddamn muscle, does that sound somehow like an average joe to you? You want to talk about mundane, talk about System Shock where you play as some nerd whose introduction at the story is sucking so much at his job that he doesn't manage to cover his tracks right and gets goddamn arrested, within thirty seconds. Even without the supernatural elements being present back then, Doomguy was always meant to evoke a "look how cool you are" feeling in the player, that's why your melee weapon is a fucking chainsaw.

You're skirting really close to the "doom games should have cover-based shooting and one/two weapon limits" argument with the way you're talking there, mister.

Agree, nu-ID created the gayest lore possible on the planet Earth.

>Doom
>Dude stuck in hell with nothing but a pistol forced to fight his way out, better man the fuck up kid

>NuDoom
>EPIC SLAYER MAN IS HERE TO RIP DEMONS A NEW ASSHOLE HERE'S A SHOTGUN MAKE SURE TO GLORY KILL EVERY 5 SECONDS RIP AND TEAR WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOO

So is the slayer the original Doom marine?

It makes perfect sense, what the fuck are you talking about? Mankind is getting absolutely fucking CURB-STOMPED despite the massive technological advantages. Even humanity with their massive battlemechs can't put a dent in Hell's invasion efforts like one man can. You're goofy as hell if you don't think people wouldn't treat Doomguy with some deep reverence.

Neat.

>nothing but a pistol
Are you okay?

>btw I'm a retard that doesn't know that they're both literally the same person and I have no idea what character development is.

You can't really do the top one when you're on the 5th game in a timeline, it'd have to be a reboot.

Yes, Doom 2016 takes place far after the events of Doom 64.
So the events are Doom, Doom 2, Doom 64, Doom '16 and Doom Eternal

Yes. This has literally been confirmed 1000 times

>>stops demons from destroying earth

Enjoy having that mower break down in less than a week.

Now Moxim, that company makes a good mower.

>>Eternal is much more focused on cut-scenes
I thought you can skip them

they do if they're mad enough

You can, but Yas Forumsetards keep forgetting it for some reason.

me like shoot
old doom good
new doom shoot lot too
fun

BOOM DOOM NO ZOOM
ZOOM DOOM NO BOOM
NEED BOOM IN DOOM AND NO ZOOM

Doom has been coopted by zoomers who have no fucking clue what makes Doom actually Doom, hence why they think these trash reboots are faithful Doom sequels.

I don't really have any problem with the game's design, I'm just saying those elements in doom 2016 and eternal are distinctly retro, not because the character himself is some insane badass that can carry every weapon at once. I like the game I just think that the story is going too far and it should keep things simple, because going into this 'logical conclusion' stuff like wow doomguy kills all the demons and runs fast and holds lots of guns turns into mega cringe. I'm clearly not the only one who thinks that either, a more mundane characterization for him being just a marine suited him more.

how old are you.
