Yeah I'm thinking it's GOTY.
DOOM Eternal
>Didn't get to fire the BFG10000
Bit of a shame I guess
>tfw can't cut things up with a katana in Doom Eternal
Super Gore Nest is the best Doom level. It destroys Foundry and Argent Facility
Agreed. It had the best level design (nonlinear is always supreme in Doom), best setting with a fuckton of environment variety from the surface to inside the buildings to the sewers, and hands down the best arenas in the entire game.
you kinda can though
haven't beat it, but so far it's my favorite too
It’s genuinely the most fun I’ve had with a game in a very long time playing that level. I’m replaying it later today and I can’t wait.
THAT IS A WEAPON, NOT A TELEPORTER.
Classic doom doesnt work with the rip-and-tear "doomslayer" version of the protag we have now. Classic doom doomguy was just a literal random guy just surviving doing what had to be done, it was the perfect middle ground between doom 3 and doom 2016/eternal. Doomslayer may as well be master chief.
In order for classic doom guy to work the story would obviously need to be reworked to take emphasis off the "doomslayer", make the demons more threatening and tone down the melee stuff.
NOOO DOOMGUY, YOU CAN'T JUST SHOOT A HOLE INTO MARS
Imagine the Master Level.
eternal makes it very clear they're the same guy
>mfw marauders in nightmare
>Objective: Shoot a hole in Mars
shot a hole in my fuckin sides that did
Yeah but he's pretty radically changed after years of tearing through hell and going off the wall insane
Looks cool. I was hesitant at first but now I think I will purchase it.
Use remote detonate rockets to stun them from behind, the same with grenades, remember once you do stun them to quick swap through your burst weapons to combo them down faster rocket for stun > ballista > super shotgun. If you just stun them out of green eyes you can super shot>balista>super shot. You can also stun them out of green eyes and combo into the bfg for an easy insta kill.
yeah, they kick my ass
Man that slayer gate with the marauder on nightmare, I honestly thought it would be harder but when you have so many tools it’s incredibly easy the chaingun absolutely shreds hell knights and other variants but anywho I just killed everything until he was the only one left.
>You've bashed and battered your way into the heart of the devil-hive. Time for a Search-and-Destroy mission, aimed at the Gatekeeper, whose foul offspring is cascading to Earth. Yeah, he's bad. But you know who's worse!
>The Gatekeeper's evil face is splattered all over the place. As its tattered corpse collapses, an inverted Gate forms and sucks down the shards of the last prototype Accelerator, not to mention the few remaining demons. You're done. Hell has gone back to pounding bad dead folks instead of good live ones. Remember to tell your grandkids to put a rocket launcher in your coffin. If you go to Hell when you die, you'll need it for some final cleaning-up ...Eat Chex(R)!
>You cackle as the familiarity of the situation occurs to you. The gateway to the Demon's Domain was too accessible. You realize the Demons mock you with their invitation. It does not matter... The Demons spawn like rats and you have the Grade AAA UAC poison they crave. Your blood thirsty scream shatters the
teleport haze. Once again you find yourself amidst...
>You smile. What strange place have you stumbled upon? The Demons did not expect you to survive this far. You feel their Demonic presence waiting for you... Let them taste their guts!
>You hear the grinding of heavy machinery ahead. You sure hope they're not stamping out new hellspawn, but you're ready to ream out a whole herd if you have to. They might be planning a blood feast, but you feel about as mean as two thousand maniacs packed into one mad killer.
I have no fucking idea where the idea that Doomguy, the same guy who has no fall damage, runs faster than a lion, murdered his way through hell and went on an eternal genocidal crusade against Hell because they killed his pet rabbit was ever anything close to "down to earth."
Which not only makes zero sense, but misses the point entirely. Doom eternal could have said he was fucking goku, it wouldn't change the fact they're handle completely differently in their respective stories so aren't really the same. Doomguy and how he's phrased within the original story is nothing like doom eternal's doomslayer
Literally the only difference is that we now have the technology to showcase the cool shit Doomguy was said to have done in the OG Dooms.
I'm surprised Bethesda gave them the go-ahead to try all this experimental shit. Could've played it safe by just keeping the 2016 combat but I'm glad they didn't.
He's unironically a badass.
>"omg slayer saved us come to Earth to lead us, you're literally a god"
>fucks off to his space station instead
They spend multiple cutscenes and tons of text logs explaining his past, is your point seriously that he's different from who he was in Doom 2? Just shut the fuck up moron. Fuckin' schnorrer.
You're completely missing the point you fucking tard
>doomslayer is not a girl
dropped
>most common mid level demon when you have shit weapons
>becomes rare when you have the weapons that make it easy to kill
Fuck this enemy and fuck the 'weak spot' that seems to take almost as much damage as the main body whilst being hard to hit.
So what, the guy who has now singlehandedly saved not one but two Earths from demonic invasion, racking up a total killcount of 8265 by himself during his first time through a Hell on Earth incident, should just be regarded as a complete nobody?
>shoot tail with precision shot or shotgun grenade
>is now worthless
So far the only time these guys troubled me was when 3 of them spawned at the same time in a slayer gate
man, Last boss fight wasn't the best but the level before that was fucking sick. what ost is the chanting? what the fuck does kar en tuk mean?
Has anyone noclipped into the Icon of Sin's head yet? If there's no head on a stake = dropped.
Use the fucking scope you moron.
fuck mars, we shouldn't colonize it, we should blow it up
Bruh it takes a single sticky grenade shot to kill the turret
>Spoiler
Kar and Tuk, most likely
>He can't hit the tail with a sticky grenade while going 88 mp/h
I knew Yas Forums was bad at videogames but this takes the cake
>you can't just shoot a hole into Mars
>OBJECTIVE: Shoot a hole into Mars
this game was alright
Rip And Tear.
You do though, who do you think put that hole there?
>BFG 10k is a BFG 9000 with an amplifier
I didn't expect that all
>tfw skelly boy survives losing both launchers
It's just not the same.
I mean the player, not a cutscene
Eternal should have been about doomguys weird ass adventures as a knight fighting demons on a fantasy planet
why is everyone crying about the snakes? they die literally to one lock-on from the rocket launcher and they can't dodge it (on UV at least) and freeze is ez as well.
that would be really gay and retarded.
It just dodges the shotgun grenade (although it's AI seems to bug out sometimes and it does endless dodges which could be making this more difficult than it should be) and swapping mods in combat is way too cumbersome.
They were a pain pretty much until you get upgraded rocket pods or the homing rocket launcher.
>try to shoot the BFG10k by pressing the button
>would you like me to remove the safety protocols?
>presses the button harder
>WARNING, THE SLAYER HAS THE BFG, GET THE FUCK OUT
so many good moments
Na not saying that at all. It's a natural progression what they gone with. I'm just saying why it's inevitably going to be a different feel from the first game. Ratchet and clank had the exact same development, and likewise none of its sequels had the same feel as the first one or two games.
That's got to be final doom or episode 4 of doom 1. The original doom and doom 2 are very plain with their text, which I personally like their understated quaintness considering you'd just taken down hell yourself.
Definitely will be for me, fast FPSs are my favorites and there aren't many others this year. There's a few little things I'd change (make marauders stun shorter but let you hit him right as he summons a dog or shoots a fireball, add some kind of map object you can grapple any time for more varied platforming, swap the microwave beam for something like 1000 voices from destiny 2, make the glory kill speed rune work on chainsaw), but overall I'm really happy with it.
Can someone translate pic related? I don't speak Arabic.
This game is pure soul. If you don't like it - seethe.
It would've just been you aiming the gun and a cutscene playing as soon as you push the button in the right spot anyway
Doesn't seem to dodge them much for me and why would you have the auto shotty mod installed? Sticky nade is the shit
It does a side dash with no cooldown whenever you fire a projectile weapon at it.
Because those intro texts were serious business fiction and totally implied that the invincible soldier who gobbled up blue spheres and punched demons to death was written to be "grounded" and "believable".
I don't get puristfags, really.
I've heard conflicting reports. Is it 10 hours long or close to 20?
15 for me on UV going for 100% completion
>game ends with you meeting a short knight on an interdimensional quest
Noice.
The pleasure of being cummed inside
SO
SO SO
SO
CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE DIVINITY MACHINE AND WHO WAS THE CUNT WHO BASICALLY MADE DOOMGUY INTO AN ACTUAL GOD ?
I MEAN IT'S QUITE OBVIOUS THAT HE'S A MAYKR BUT THERE'S SOMETHING HIDDEN HERE
>the one in nekroval with the whiplash
literally just made me depressed when i turned the corner
I played with the sticky grenade mod installed, it just dodged almost every shot, could only ever reliably kill them using 'undodgeable' weapons.
Maybe my playstyle triggered the dodging more often.
It's Samuel Hayden. He was a rogue Makyr all along, and VEGA was the Father.
Take a shallow game mechanic and just remove it and replace it with.... no game mechanic, in a game.
>ok.
Play on higher difficulties. Also on nightmare you sticky grenade their "tail" then F switch and full-auto shotty burn them down - otherwise you are getting filtered.
That'll depend on Cyberpunk.
I'm at 21 after a full Nightmare playthrough without doing most of the Slayer Gates or full collectible search, and a little bit of Battlemode. It's very substantial.
>that voice
>Hayden's intimate knowledge of Makyr tech and Hell
>apparently also knew about VEGA
>makes a quip about the invasion could have been prevented if the Makyrs had "different leadership"
It can only be Hayden.
ballista is a no go if it starts repeatedly spawning wolves.
I play on Nightmare though
On Nightmare you zoom in with the SSG, falter them with a single shot then kill them before they recover.
if you never die at all then probably like 10 hours. but on nightmare, playing for the first time...you will die.
That's pretty good. I guess they weren't bullshitting when they said it was twice as long as 2016.
How hard are the HARD sections of this game on nightmare compared to 16? There were a few fights in 16 where I almost gave up after several hours, the one that springs to mind is the last Argent D'nur gauntlet.
So what's the state of affairs in the world after the ending?
Haven't played it but I heard it excels at filtering.
Slightly better than in EDF
harder
So Hayden had absolutely no clue what Argent Energy really was in 2016, yeah? Which means that the Khan Makyr probably kept it secret from the rest of the Makyrs, too.
I imagine they'd all be horrified by what has been powering their lifestyle once the truth comes out.
Really fucking hard. Archviles and Marauders are serious motherfuckers and are significantly harder than anything in Doom 2016.
you should use a trip so i can filter you. im at a loss as you how someone as stupid as you has not forgotten how to breath and choked to death
I don't know if I just got better at handling them or what, but I think this recent patch changed his behavior to be a little less cheesy. He staggers more reliably and he doesn't pop that shield even when his eyes flash green anymore. Made them way, way less frustrating. I'm not sure easier is the right word because they still require as much focus as my dumb brain can muster especially with all the other shit happening around me but I definitely wish they behaved liked that from day one.
Also they still need to fix how often the player gets stuck on terrain. I've been killed more than once because I got stuck inside a decoration.
it is far more demanding than '16. combat in general is much faster paced and chaotic. you MUST use every tool available to you, as opposed to '16 where it was like "its here if you want it bro but its cool if you dont"
2016's nightmare is a joke compared to eternal's ultra-violence, let alone nightmare
Huh then I might actually get filtered. 16 was on the limit of my git gud tolerance.
Should've added an easter egg where you can creampie Isabelle from Animal Crossing for the humorous juxtaposition.
On Nightmare I just freeze the cunts and rocket a bit or magdump plasma into them, they're barely worth paying attention to late game, same with Revenants.
It will beat the almighty fuck out of you if you don't learn how to play properly and the Slayer Gates will probably beat the almighty fuck out of you anyway. It is literally Casual Filters: The Game, which is probably why there's so much shitposting on Yas Forums about it. Extremely fair if you understand and master its mechanics, impossible otherwise, which also makes it extremely satisfying.
that said i had way more trouble with legendary in any halo game than Nightmare in Eternal so take that as you will
It feels fairer than 2016, you don't get many deaths where you don't see that you did something wrong
I believe at the start of the game you hear there's over a billion dead. Probably a couple billion by the end. The aim was to basically farm humans so they opened portals across the big cities and overpowered the armies but weren't aiming for complete annihilation.
>triggered him so hard he is begging for you to tripfag.
I didn't even know there was a nerve there to touch. Your seethe is only eclipsed by my amusement currently.
>game ends
>credits play
>Screen stays black
>"Hey you, you're finally awake"
God fucking dammit Todd
>freeze the cunts before you have the freeze grenade.
You aren't playing on nightmare, stop lying.
How is everything being sucked in in space?
TOO
MUCH
FUCKING
PLATFORMING
otherwise it would be perfect
Protip: Once you get the Supershotgun, use this method to get good asap.
Master the flaming meathook then use it exclusively. Only shoot things you've either hooked (then you can follow it up to kill if you need to, but better to just run afterwards) or are in your immediate way. The meathook's mobility and slow recharge time will train you to not get into firefights and stand still, as well as to keep moving. Just keep running between meathook shots.
Once you've started instinctively doing loops of the arena during every fight, you're ready.
