This is a fucking mess, im glad I pirated this shit. also because it works better without denuvo by a lot. (above 30fps increase in some cases)
Thats not so bad. I have a retarded cousin. He flies airplanes.

Yes, you fucking idiot. DOOM Eternal is a detriment of DOOM 2016. Its not that your 50th run of 2016 with all the cheese strategies learned compared to your first blind playthrough of Eternal aren't the same thing. It isn't that you don't fully remember all the initial frustrations and bad moments you also had with 2016 and you are now having with Eternal. Saying that Eternal is a radical department and betrayal of 2016 after a single playthough, maybe even not even a full one, isn't a overreaction or questionable at all.

Why? Articulate on that. I want to see how clueless you are when level design is concerned.

Did you even read retard. Its about the game making go slow and forcing use a shitty mechanic to go fast, and for a limited time.
Grayson Sanchez
>Dash is absolutely mandatory because everything moves faster than you.
What in the actual fuck is this? Are you so assbackwards into playing Eternal just as you play classic DOOM that you straight up refuse to use any new mechanic because you think you can taint your experience? Even though its pretty clear the game was build from scratch so that you must use these mechanics and you still act like thats a problem of the game? Jesus fucking Christ, just refund of swallow your game disk already. You are too mentally challenged to play and understand this game.
Hudson Nguyen
Imagine writing all of this bullshit and thinking it's going to change anyone's mind. Enjoy getting your asshole ripped and torn by Doomchad you fucking fag

Have you upgraded your machine since 2009?
>Its absolutely inefficient to actually kill demons by using guns because their stagger animation just soaks it up and makes them pretty much invulnerable until you either glory kill them, or stop staggering THEN actually die
This is just wrong.
Stay a contrarian if you really want. The game is fun as fuck and nothing you say can change that. Everyone has their own taste and yours is just shit.
I'm having a fucking blast. The intensity of this game's combat on higher missions gives me a feeling of satisfaction that, when you actually get gud and succeed, surpasses that of Dark Souls 1 when that shit came out.
Jaxson Diaz
He is right though. Posting your a shit opinion with a chad picture without nothing to back it up makes your post way less valid than his.
Joseph Hughes

that's not what I said at all though, is it? I compared the feeling of satisfaction to Dark Souls, which is well known for making you feel fucking amazing when you finally beat that damn boss you were stuck on.

Literally the second whatever report after the first mission says so, in a serious tone too.

>>Arena combat is still there just not as obvious as Doom 4 but its still very noticeable Arena>Walk>Arena>Walk Not noticeable? Every single combat arena has a big icon on the map just in case you'd forgotten it was a combat arena. And now, instead of the environment being closed off by bars falling down, force fields being activated, etc, the way is blocked with magic or whatever.
Jeremiah Williams
Faster base movement speed and no stupid dash. This isn’t CoD I don’t want to sprint sometimes and walk sometimes, it’s doom you should go 110% all the time and being unable to run down demons is hilariously dumb

Cheats are only allowed in mission select, aka missions you already beat. You didn't play the game.

All true, but game is still 6/10. I really preferred 2016, don't see why they had to fuck so much up compared to it, especially in regards to UI and a few other things that just stand out. >Inb4 "you can mod the UI" You can't remove the low ammo/health bars unless you fully disable the UI, and they're the most obnoxious parts of the UI. It's honestly puzzling how they didn't make it an option to remove those. They're shills. They're here to push the game, and ruin the board in the process. I'd say ignore them, but it's literally impossible.

>Needs a meme hook upgrade to "bunny hop"
Henry Turner
I can't believe I have to fucking explain this. when a character says something ridiculous, that is your cue to realize, "oh the game is making a joke"
Bentley Roberts
You realize that is satire, right?
Hunter Hernandez
The game was never gonna be praised here anyways. Yas Forums hates video games and it’s just getting depressing.
Carter Myers
Well I wasnt fucking laughing. If they tried to make humor then they failed at it.
Henry Gomez
the level design sucks the checkpoints before platforming sections suck the slow movespeed sucks the lack of ammo sucks the game sucks
Jack Adams
God I fucking hate you doompauling niggers. You're the same kind of retard that thinks Yas Forums actually hates every single game in existence, aren't you? That's just a fucking meme. If you actually visit threads you'll see people talking positively about games too. God damn it's annoying having people like you casually pass through here. Stay in your fucking hugbox if you can't deal with a little negativity, wherever the fuck you came from is likely full of nothing but dick sucking anyways.
Zachary Bell
You don't have to find it funny to realize that it's satire. You're just stupid.
John Wright
don’t care about this game just wanted to say the schizOP same fag in this thread is hilarious. keep up the good work,
Anthony Powell
You stupid NIGGER. The original DOOM games had a fucking sprint option, does that make them more like CoD than Eternal then?
Ayden Peterson
Typical symptom of autism, an inability to see things from another's point of view. Humor is subjective and therefore an autistic person can't grasp that other people have different standards of humor.
Blake Jones
here's some non-meme criticism, playing on Nightmare if it matters The ammo constraints are probably meant to make you think more about conserving it, but they don't because of the lack of options compared to 2016. In 2016, ammo wasn't incredibly scarce, but sometimes you'd run low and have to worry about it. In those circumstances, you had options: you could use your limited chainsaw to restore your ammo at the cost of losing its instakill ability for tough enemies. You could switch to your pistol or use melee and fight at a disadvantage until you could find more ammo, or you could disengage and search the environment for bullets. In Eternal, you have less ammo, but you also have only one option when you run low: use the infinite chainsaw to restore it. That's it. You have no pistol and your melee is so pathetically weak that it's not an option(I counted over 50 hits to kill a basic zombie on Nightmare), and searching the environment isn't worth your time because the ammo pickups are worth so little and enemies are so tanky. So, combat is a rotation of shoot until you run out, then find a small enemy to chainsaw. No thought. It's not more difficult. Similarly, there's no reason for armour to be separate from health because it's no longer more difficult to obtain. Just press R before you kill something and it will refill both your armour and health. It's trivial to have full armour for every fight. The weapons also just seem less distinct from each other. By making the Heavy Rifle and the Gauss cannon both projectiles instead of hitscan they've ended up being pretty similar to the Plasma Rifle and the Rocket Launcher, and no longer feel unique. They're just a different ammo pool to burn through. And, while it's minor compared to gameplay, I feel like Doomguy worked better as a silent protagonist with very sparse backstory than he does now. Your mind could fill in the gaps before and that was more interesting than what's filling them now.

>upgrade so you didn't even play the game? why the fuck are you posting LOL
Hunter Brown
None of the "Good"/allied systems use it, it's literally being portrayed as Demon-influenced propaganda in a way that should be upsetting.
Isaac Moore
>So, combat is a rotation of shoot until you run out, then find a small enemy to chainsaw. And to make this possible they make it so that said enemies infinitely respawn until all the larger mobs are dead, thus eating up more ammo and time. I truly do not understand how some of their design decisions got approved.
Nicholas Sullivan
>Game lets you straight up cheat and still progress Yeah. I haven't seen anyone mention sentinel armor yet. Pic related The equivocal golden tanooki suit is a weird inclusion. I get it, it's to stop bad players from getting stuck in a game with only auto-saving, but I still don't like it.
nightmare sucked and ruined the flow of 2016 and it sucks and ruins the flow of eternal stop playing on meme difficulties, they're meant to be played on ultra violence
