Doom Eternal review - the same orgiastic thrills with a creeping weight of story

This is great news for all of us who played Doom for the story

A single, individual game like KCD existing doesn't mean that the industry as a whole has inclined.

And again, like I already said, all to you have to do to see that the industry has indeed inclined in the last 5 years in relation to 06-14 is just compare the yearly number of great games released in the last 20 years.
Besides KCD is just one of many examples of popular indie games. Then you have AA devs pushing the industry away from AAA design trends.

Indie games came into focus probably because AAA games had declined too far.

That too but it's has alot to do with the fact making your own games is getting easier, and with platforms like steam indie games have a bigger chance to compete with higer production.

If we had a discussion about cartoons and I said modern animation was terrible, would you tell me that I'm wrong because anime is good?

Except our discussion was about games in general (so animation using your example) not western AAA games specifically.
At least when I made the post about the state of modern gaming I was talking about games in general, because that was what I assumed you were talking about when you simply said modern devs/games.

Anyone who doesn't think PC gaming has had significant incline the last 5 years or so is trying way too fucking hard to earn Codex edge-points.

Care to provide any examples of said incline? Oh, right...

You know what? It's all shit. AAA, Indie, Japanese, they're all shit. I don't give a shit about some indie games made by boring retards, I don't give a shit about boring Japanese games for casuals, and I certainly don't give a shit about any western games at all. The current generation is even shittier than the last, and you're a dumb faggot. poopoo peepee NIGGERS

Good for you man.

Just watched cohh play it......lol it look like bloated modern garbage. There is like 5 different upgrade progressions and upgrade onto upgrades. All that was missing was the attribute point spending on level up,tho there is doom levels . Also tomb rider style platforming buahahahaha,ok. Oh and there is some rip off lore from darksiders buahahaha. Fuck those retards shoved everything in this games. Also running out of ammo in a DOOM game is heresy!!! Fuck,12 shotgun shells and 60 minigun ammo limit is retarded. Do you guys actually like that shit ???

The UI is completely customizable, along with the color scheme of it. You can also change the colors of the ammo pickups so they are all one color or whatever you want.

Overall I'd say yes but there is an argument to be made that AAA games have declined, due to toxic monetarisation schemes among other things.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance

Combat in that game is cancer.

I only play singleplayer, so that doesn't really impact me. Fair point though.

 

[Feyd Rautha]

lol, he's butthurt about being called out for his blood fresh supply review.

What about it?

 

[Silverfish]

Besides like I said earlier the success of nuDoom is finally killing the CoDs and Halos

Not really. Halo's been hurt more by the (comparatively) poor reception to the 343 Studios entries and having essentially an mmo spinoff in the form of Destiny. CoD is still a monster.

 

[OctavianRomulus]

I used a VPN to get the game early. The game is out in 7 hours in New Zealand.

I just hope Bethesda won't ban me for this.

 

[Wunderbar]

lol, he's butthurt about being called out for his blood fresh supply review.

What about it?

he praised Blood fresh supply in his review. Few hours later Civvie11 made his own fresh supply review, in which he shat on it and pointed out numerous issues.
Few weeks later similar thing happened with John Romero's Sigil. Except shillmanlives shat on it because of high difficulty, while civvie praised it while pointing out numerous clever design tricks.
After that shillman's audience have started to realize that he's a hack fraud.

Why people still watch ssshill mun?

 

[Ovplain]

Will the game support 21:9 out of the gate, anybody know?

Holy crap this game is well optimized. Getting 90-144 fps on a mix of nightmare and ultra nightmare settings at 2560x1440. That's with only a gtx 1080

 

[abija]

Too bad cheap monkeys can't use the engine (so Quake Champions was done on some russian nightmare shit).

Holy crap this game is well optimized. Getting 90-144 fps on a mix of nightmare and ultra nightmare settings at 2560x1440. That's with only a gtx 1080

I thought the game wasn't even out yet? Is there a demo?

You can unlock it with an Australian, New Zealand or Korean VPN and play right now. At least on the Bethesda Launcher version, I don't know about Steam.

 

[Bigg Boss]

Rip and tear huge guts is literally canon now. Doom Guy is Doom Slayer. I mean it was obvious since 2016 but the Doom 64 addon just released ties in with Eternal, and I watched all of the cut scenes on Eternal...there isn't as much story as you might think. This might be old news but it's hilarious and retarded at the same time. I mean the Doom Guy dialog is weird even for a guy that just went through Hell. One thing I noticed is how repetitive the dialog is. Hayden tells Doom Slayer the same exact thing 4 times in a row in one segment.

 

[Steezus]

I don't know about Steam.

Works with Steam, too.

 

[OctavianRomulus]

Jesus Christ this game is relentless. The monsters are incredibly aggresive, you run out of ammo quick and it constantly yells at you "THINK FASTER OR DIE". It's kind of dizzying. You can no longer just spam your favorite weapon.

 

[DalekFlay]

Some people wonder why anyone would buy things day one for $60, and meanwhile we've got people using a VPN and risking bans to play the game 7 hours early.
