Much better than 2016. I genuinely think a lot of you faggots haven't even played the game (not surprising, since this is Yas Forums after all). This might wind up being one of my favorite shooters ever made.
I just started this and fuck you faggots, this game is the shit
Damn right it’s shit.
As I explained in a previous thread, in the OG Doom there is an imagination factor, and you behave on your own accord. You go where you want, do what you want and this results in some “I’m so badass look at me” moments and genuine enjoyment.
In Eternal, it’s all on rails. Fucking Singilarity had less linear map design than that game. You simply die and die and die until you memorize the enemy layout and attacks, and then you proceed to wipe the floor with them, which grants some fleeting and artificial satisfaction that is quickly forgotten when you realize your brain basically did the same calculations as if you were playing a shmup. None of that was you, it was just muscle memory. NuDoom has no way to express yourself through combat, and no imagination factor due to everything being portrayed in hyper-precise, gory detail.
To explain the imagination factor I am referring to, in Old Doom, when I shoot a zombie, I can see in my head the things the bullets are doing to his innards. I can imagine him being laid out against a wall by a shotgun blast, his jaw dangling down. I can visualize when I punch something their jaw breaking, their nose bleeding. In Eternal, there is no room for this due to all of your mental cinema being replaced with cutscenes.
Nu-fun is real.
Also,
BEGIN!
ROUND 2: FIGHT!
ROUND 3: FIGHT!

Boomer logic is real huh
ROUND 4: FIGHT!
It is shit, yes
Nice, OP. Enjoy it. See you in Battlemode brah.
ROUND 5: FIGHT!
It's funny that people seriously think that the OG Doom was anything more than hiding behind corners, popping out, getting a few shots in, and then getting back into cover. And I say that as someone who fucking loves old Doom. There's legitimately far more going on in Eternal's combat.
Not to mention people bitch and complain about melee not doing any damage but melee didn't do fucking shit for damage in OG Doom either and you only ever melee'd Possessed and Imps in 2016 when they were close to getting staggered.
Actually while damage has been nerfed in Eternal, what it does is push enemies back farther away, which is really useful. Also, the audacity people have to bitch that Doom supposedly isn't a shooting game anymore then turn around and complain that the melee sucks now. lol
Why are you such shit?
ROUND 6: FIGHT!
why do they have such a hard-on for a basic melee attack?
These faggots need to git gud.
That's implying it's boomers and not zoomers larping as the former to get e-cred, which is much more sad.
ROUND 7: FIGHT!
ROUND 8: FIGHT!
ROUND 9: FIGHT!
It waw only a matter of time before this became stale pasta.
People don't actually play video games any more. That's the problem. Their idea of old Doom is what speedrunners do.
ROUND 10: FIGHT!
ROUND 11: FIGHT!
Funny you say waw
That game had less linear map design than Eternal
ROUND 12: FIGHT!
Imagine autistically shilling metacritic reviews.
Going though all that effort, for nothing.
>actually giving any kind of shit about the shitposters opinion
Yas Forums and the internet in general is not to be taken seriously, form your own opinions and thoughts
just enjoy video games brah, if i listened to Yas Forums i wouldnt have enjoyed dmc5, re2, kh3 or this game
i dont even use this board to discuss games anymore since thats borderline impossible, thankfully i have a group of friends for that
>low ammo
>jumping puzzles
>lots of different upgrades and abilities
>neon colors
we get it, you don't like these things
can you shut the fuck up now?
ROUND 13: FIGHT!
ROUND 14: FIGHT!
>need to learn the new mechanics
They are the most straightforward mechanics. Why do these people suck at playing anything?
I mean, I don't really give a shit what anyone thinks, I'll form my own opinion, but I don't get what people get out of pretending like they hate the game just to fit in with some anonymous e-crowd. Or to what extent people are just trolling and who's actually being serious because there have to be examples of either really pushing this shit.
>best selling game in the franchise
lol
ROUND 15: FIGHT!
>I genuinely think a lot of you faggots haven't even played the game
isn't that the truth for *every* game Yas Forums hates?
Thanks coolstreamer
Its literally couple of autists jerking off eachother trying to push their retarded narrative in their own shitposting threads
There is usually one good thread up, discuss game there instead
difficulty is a complete pathetic joke.
retarded devs did not test their 'combat puzzle' at all.
'we dont want people to use the same weapon the entire game'
try plasma rifle + heat blast, and the occasional blood punch. it becomes literally an easy mode, the entire game is trivialized. its DPS is seriously better than a BFG and unlike a BFG you can never run out of ammo because of this 'genius' combat loop.
'git gud' my ass - this would be like if you made a knockoff nioh 2 where you can trigger yokai form every 15 secs.
ROUND 16: FIGHT!
Flow’s gonna break because I’m going into an area whose IP range is blocked. Be back in 20 minutes to deliver the final four rounds.
>arcade gameplay
So not only did these people never played anything besides the 2016 doom game. But what the fuck do they want from a fps? What serious fps? Do they want a pretentious fps version of LoU and spec ops the line?
i want something where i cannot run through the entire game with a plasma rifle and win, thanks.
its just extreme autism, ive been in contact with this type of people directly and its just a pretty pathetic sight
people do actually sit in IRCs/discords all day planning their shitposting
i remember this weirdo from Yas Forums, siztra i think? ive recently heard about him again for the first time in ten years and he's still a mentally ill freak
honestly we should all feel blessed our lives arent as pathetic as these autists
Ignore the people bitching about it. It's probably 50% kneejerk reactions and another 50% shitposters. The game does hold hands and that pisses most entitled pissbabies off.
Most people's idea of an FPS today is still CoD or Battlefield.
Sorry I was gone.
ROUND 17: FIGHT!
I'm actually enjoying it
ROUND 18: FIGHT!
thanks for the bump homie, thread was about to die
So does someone in the game call all wojak posters faggots or something?
Why the fuck does Yas Forums have such a vendetta against it?
ROUND 19: FIGHT!
its not Yas Forums, just a group of dedicated autists probably
FINAL ROUND: FIGHT!
The shilling in this board is inmense. You would expect that after it sold so well they would just fuck off, but now. Have to give Todd Shillable more douch so he can make more versions of Skyrim.
Fuck you stupid zoomies, stop dragging Yas Forums down.
>implying a game that has sold this well and is rated so highly needs to be shilled on Yas Forums
>inmense
>douch
You’re making us look bad
Take your meds
i dont get it, are you butthurt a currently popular game is being discussed and calling it shilling or whatever? huh
based schizo
>It's funny that people seriously think that the OG Doom was anything more than hiding behind corners, popping out, getting a few shots in, and then getting back into cover.
You're shit at the game my first time playing OG Doom was this year I played on the hardest difficulty setting and never felt the need to hide around corners and take potshots
Becuase Yas Forums is the last bastion of non-zoomer, non-shill people on the internet. The last place where actual opinions can be expressed rather than saying something because a company slapped a few greenbacks into your palm.
>Ever listening to shitposters
Wow
>Becuase Yas Forums is the last bastion of non-zoomer
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHA
Make some shit, I don't care.
The gunplay is really fun and most of the environments look great so far. My only real complaints are the constant tutorials and weird mechanics. This upgrade shit should be scrapped. For now I’m avoiding all upgrades but well see how far I can get by doing that since I’m only on the 4th level
seriously, take your meds
>imagine getting payed by Bethedo to shit post on Yas Forums
the life of a paid shill must be nice
