DOOM ETERNAL

I like prowels, they're a good light weight enemy.

Made me realize Ice Bomb is better than Frags since Whiplash becomes way easier when you hit them with it

Personally the Doom Hunter is my favorite, especially when the game is like "Oh you killed the first one as a boss, cool. Guess what HAVE TWO FUCK YOU GIT GUD".

All the new enemies are great fun to fight
I don't understand why they aesthetically redesigned so many 2016 enemies though

I think enemies like that are good because they mess with your brain and your priorities, you can be getting ass whupped by a doomhunter but a whiplash gets in your shit and becomes priority number 1 over enemies who are technically stronger.
It's the same shit with like headless kamikazes in Serious Sam, Slimes in Quake or anything like that

The best part about the fight is how it subconsciously acclimates you to the design of the enemy.

>First fight has inflated hp so you understand it's a big ass heavy target that means something, very focused simple battlefield so you can learn it's weaknesses, attacks, mechanics.
>Second fight throws two at you which in your head is like FUCK okay let's do this. But they have normal hp, you're in a much better more interesting arena, and there's more heavies, this is sub consciously acclimating you to the fact that these will be normal enemies during your arena encounters.

God I fucking love this game

Yeah no absolutely, whiplash is a bitch but is another integral piece to this insane pacing

Those motherfuckers would teleport behind me and stop me from moving to slap my ass like 3 times
I go for them immediately too

What was the hardest encounter (no slayer gates or boss) fight for you guys? I had to retry the lobby fight in the office complex (with the berserk powerup) a bunch of times.

Probably the lobby, the final arena of Final Sin, and all of level 1 on nightmare

That one and the Cultist Base final encounter where the floor breaks out and you fight in some ruins. I kept getting my shit kicked in, and didn't realize the Infinite Ammo power up until after I beat it.

Why did they make them so similar to the new hell baron? Like really, why use the same armblades for 2 demons and give them similar attacks

>skewering a Whiplash with the bone sticking out of its arm
>grabbing a prowler by the chest and ripping it in half
>repeatedly hacking a doom slayer's head
can't think of another "FUCK YOU DIE" glory kill that never gets old

The Icon of Sin fucked me up a bunch of times because I didn’t realize Crucible pickups respawned until after I beat him

so is the new "tryant" basically just the old school cyber demon with a new name? i loved fighting that giga chad fuckker really got my heart racing

Favorite: Marauder

Least Favorite: Doomhunter

Yes since the 2016 cyberdemon was a one off arch enemy of the slayer

They're not lightweight at all despite their size. They cost all 3 chainsaw pips to kill. They take nearly an entire ssg shot to kill. Trying to kill them with the machinegun or the regular shotgun is suicide.

I beat the lobby first try, I didnt notice the berserk until the whiplashes appeared, getting the berserk then makes it a piece of cake

Glory killing a prowler from behind has you rip out its skull and spine Mortal Kombat style. I hate those fucking bastards so that one is particularly cathartic to me

>New
Tyrant, or maybe Dread Knight (even if they just felt like a Hell Knight + armswords)
>Remade
Arachnatrons. Sniping their turret is always fun.

I miss grabbing hole faced zombies by their donut head.

heat blast is only for whiplash

>level 3 blast
>pepper with pew pew for a second
>blinking light
>kill

hate that bitch

Cultist base 2x whiplash mancubus secret gore nest
First time i played I died 7 times
No other fight managed to do that. Icon of sin first time is 5 deaths, bc didnt realize infinite crucible

Doom Hunter is probably my favorite because fighting him changes halfway through when you destroy the sled. I like the Marauder visually but fighting him is kind of boring especially after you know the SSG+Ballista combo.

Also fuck Prowlers. I hate the fact they have more health than you'd think and I always mistake them for Imps at a distance so I try to chainsaw one for ammo only to come up with nothing while they teleport away.

Baron of hell is my favorite. Turret mode chaingun and a good 4 seconds of BRRRRT while he melts into lava and armor shards. Marauder should have been a recurring character rather than just some mooks with shields. Prowlers can go fuck themselves, not worth freezing them but also hard to pin down.

SSG is best weapon. Flaming meathook>fodder>shoot from midrange>stagger>glory kill. Also combos into blood punch on pinkies/cyber mancubus/revenants. Unmaykr was a huge disappointment, BFG wipes entire rooms while it only kills one thing at a time.

Air Control,Faster GK,GK speed boost runes. Those paired with meathook shenanigans makes me so fucking fast i love it. Meathook shenanigans also are hilarious on Battlemode. The look of absolute panic on a pain elementals face when I manage to fly into the air and punch him is amazing.

Both grenades are good, just use the ice and follow up with frag right after

>there's a pussy somewhere on whiplash's body

that lobby took me a hour
the one of arenas with archvile in final sin level almost as much for some reason, i hate cybermacubuses so much

Arachnatrons were nice to see again. Same with Cyberdemons. If we're going by never seen before new demons, I like the Carcass. The shield is a neat gimmick and I like their design.

I don't like Marauders. I think they're way too boring and flowchart like for an enemy. They were one of the enemies I was excited for before the game came out, an enemy that was equal to the Doomguy sounded awesome. But it's really just boring, wait for him to glow green and shoot him when he does this until he dies. The people bitching about him need to get good, he's way too fucking easy and doesn't change it up at all. Just a massively disappointing enemy

Nope

the tripple slice glory kill on the whiplash is the best in the game

I will never get over how fucking hilarious and absurd the Marauder's running animation looks. Boot up a level and just look at him running towards you it's the most stock running animation you can put in a game I fucking love it

Hated Whiplash the most. Cybermancubus is a close second

I hate those fags on the tripods that project shields all over the place.

Yeah, I felt that the Whiplash's kit was way to advanced. It's supposed to be a fast, hard to hit demon that tries to constantly get behind you and chip your health away. But it's long range energy wave attacks in addition to it's whip attacks makes it basically a first priority over everything else due to how much damage it can do. The only real times I panicked in Eternal is when multiple of the fuckers spawn in. That and Cyber Mancubus, fuck I hated Cyber Mancubus.

>Cyber Mancubus
blood punch, dash away, SSG meat hook in and shoot him. once you got all the mobility items, mancubus weren't that bad sir, fuck dread knights tho

apart from the Baron, oddly, the classic demons are closer to how they originally looked

Carcasses? Yeah, those guys suck dick.

>favorite
Tyrants

>hate
Tyrants

I realized you gotta save a certain thing for every enemy. I used lock-on rockets for whiplash, save blood punch for the cybers, alt shotgun fire for cacodemons, siege mode chaingun for knights, meat hook for normal mancubi, ballista for revenants and pinky backs, heavy Cannon for arachnotrons, crucible ammo for tyrants and barons, and most importantly wipe away the faggot Marauder's fursona and every single other enemy before going for him.
And more important than anything else is try to get around fodder like imps and gargoyles instead of just wasting the good ammo on em like rockets, or at least make it worth your while by reloadin- I mean, chainsawing them every two seconds, and basically having belch on perpetual cooldown. Learning the way all this flows together is basically the whole game

>favorite
marauders and tyrants.
marauders are a nice change of pace and really fun to fight with ssg only, tyrants are just fucking great.
>hated
whiplash. fuck whiplash.

>this is how useless, stupid and arrogant the average player is nowadays

>good
Tyrants, Whiplashes, Spiders, Gargoyles. Kinda bring their own thing into the mix without being overbearing. Dreadknights for being what Barons should've been on the offensive factor.
>bad-ish
Prowlers, usually better at blocking your movement and shots than the Carcass while not being much of a challenge beyond being an imp that requires three chainsaw bars. Marauder, who doesn't ever really mix into the fight, rather than being a separate fight from everything else.

uninstall demon

Doom fans are absolute faggots, sorry but I can't enjoy something I can't talk about without running into this type of person in pic related. Literally everywhere, anything vaguely spooky, hell, just normal content too; there's a million of these fucking idiots just saying haha DOOOOOOOOOM.
It really sucks all the life out of shit when you wanna make friends over a game like this, but all the people into it are completely lacking in self awareness.
I get the other argument, don't base your fun and enjoyment around what other people do or think, but as I said before, I can't share common ground to make friends if everyone talking about this is a fucking gimp.

honestly, Carcass. I find the way he fights and how he tries to cockblock you from getting kills and powerups to be super interesting, even if he fights like a dick

I want to give an honorable mention to Mecha Zombies. By far my favorite fodder type. I am very happy the team gave the T-800 it's due as an enduring icon of excellent monster design. Feels like forever since I saw one in a game, they were a huge staple of video games in the 90's back when Terminator was the shit.

Right now at Hell levels, but who are those bodies that hanging at the wall?

My headcanon is that DoomGuy and the other marines are clones. Clones I say!

Doom Hunter.
Also fuck Maradeur

Fuck Doom
Fuck Doom series
Fuck Doom lore
Fuck all Doom threads

Farewell now...

Right after you get RL.
I don't really know why, in restrospect it's not that hard. But that's when I lowered difficulty to UV.
Probably has to do with shitton of Mancubi.

Slayer gate 5 hands down, dealing with the marauder along with the Prowlers and Maykr drones took me a long ass time, the second phase was a lot easier at least but fuck that first phase.

A lot of Eternal's enemies are outright assholes, but I love them all the more for it, even the Marauder. The slightest change to the demon lineup of a given encounter can completely change how it plays out. It's fucking great.

Oh i didn't see the no slayer gates.
Other than that i don't remember, either that one arena Exultia with the crapton of Arachnotrons and Revenants or the arena in Urdak with the Archvile and the crapton of cyber Mancubuses

Fuck Marauder by default.

Love my Dread Knights.
Fuck Whiplash
and most importantly, FUCK ARCHVILES.

I always save crucible ammo for those shitheads.

Secret encounter with Caco, Elemental and Doom Hunter in Taras Nabad because I was farming glory kills from Pain Elemental for mission challenge.
Those "do x very specific kills" challenges are fucking shit, I hated them in 2016 and I hate them now. They turn specific demons into some super-rare commodity you need to carefully manage.

This but literally.

Same here, that secret encounter was a nightmare, not even the Taras Nabad ones can compare to that.

Holy shit i forgot about that one, it took me so fucking long because of that Mancubus placement

the snake whore because u cant dodge shit

The Archvile's intro in Taras Nabad. Had no idea what was going on at first and kept dying while looking for the buff totem until I found some new demon I hadn't seen yet.

> most hated
By FAR those snake fuckers, if there was a cheat code to remove them from the game I'd do it in a heartbeat.
> most loved
Unironically the Marauder.

wasn't that the one with the barrel-mine things lying around?
those should have killed the whiplashes outright iirc, letting you focus on the mancubus

Yes, you can. Get good, useless dipshit.
