The HADCOREZ are gonna shrug this off but I switched to "hurt me plenty" to try it out and you need to glory kill and chainsaw MUUUUUCH less. The ammo counts are the same but enemies die faster, and once you get a few weapons and upgrades suddenly you're chainsawing once a fight, if that. I feel like there's more ammo around in level 3 as well. You still lose health a lot, but obviously less, meaning less glory kills. Also the rune that makes glory kills faster is great, they really do go by quick. Much more into the game this way, and combat is still challenging enough to be engaging. Once you get used to the platforming it gets less annoying as well. Still prefer 2016 so far, but it's better.
The sentinels or whatever were in 2016 a little bit. I remember all the ghost knights being in a circle and calling something down for you at one point, or something like that. I don't really know the lore because I haven't read the logs and shit, though. I just assume it was an old demon fighting order or something. Maybe I'll read them someday.
I started playing it and I'm having fun, but it feels like the third part of a trilogy that I missed the second part of. I have no idea who the Sentinels are or why I'm talking to a ghost king on what's apparently their planet, I played Doom 2016 a month ago and there was no mention of them.
