>a fucking DOOM game not even in the top 10 best selling vidya of the year
what went wrong?

You guys. You guys killed it.

It's not a Doom game.

>>713701548 (OP)
Just because Bethesda bought the name doesn't mean it's a Doom game.

Everything made under the name after 3 has been utter slop trash for zoomers with no merit whatsoever and barely anything in common with the previous games other than some visual elements (and even that less and less as time goes on).

>>713701819
More of a Doom game than the previous Doom game.

Probably offering it for free to subscribers of their game subscription service from day one...

>>713701904
Which also wasn't a doom game.
And no, it has even less in common with doom than the previous games.

>>713701548 (OP)
This cuck describe it well.

tldw:
It's a worse version of the previous game.

>>713701825
>millenialtroons first keep saying how nu-DOOM filters zoomies
>suddenly nu-DOOM is made match in heaven for zoomies
can you niggers at least stay consistent in your pathetic jewish generation wars?

>>713702150
but Eternal is the worst DOOM game and FPS of all time?

it's like 70 or 80 bong I'm not paying that

>>713702338
You're right, it should be 90 or 100. Or even 200.

>>713701642
Should have catered harder to leftoid bugman cucks with a funko pop collection and leddit gold.

>>713702296
Exactly.
Dark ages somehow find a way to be worse than eternal.

>>713702296
imagine being such a hipster

the amount of xbox shills that tried to shill it. failed.

>>713702296
And somehow Dark Ages is 10 times worse, holy shit!

game passed it. i would describe it as generic and gay. the gay being the retarded story and green flash mechanics. im usually invested enough in a story to at least watch the cutscenes but in this i checked out after he dies

>>713702552
I know that's bill burr but who is the man on the left?

>>713703150
That's his husband nia.

>>713701548 (OP)
as almost always, go woke get broke

>>713701548 (OP)
>what went wrong?
Ethernal was selling as a zoomified version of that brutal boomer shooter, Dark ages is selling as edgy toys for edgy kids

>>713701548 (OP)
unironically dogshit media campaign, I don't know who did the trailers for dark ages but he needs to be fired for gross incompetence and then fed to the lions

Because its 80 bux/euro

>>713701548 (OP)
Eternal sold well off the back of 2016. TDA was screwed over by Eternal being shit.

>>713701548 (OP)
Doom 2016 is Doom peak.
The multiplayer was a fuking blast.

>>713701548 (OP)
it is bad.

>>713701642
They made the game shit for faggots like you, why would we buy it? It's your game, that means you bought it, right?

>>713705857
This. Eternal burned 2016's good will. Actually the Ancient Gods burned it, Eternal was mixed but the DLC was the pits.

>>713706047
>sees thinky veiled sarcasm
>has an autistic manlet meltdown
anon..

>>713701548 (OP)
I played it on gamepass for a 1$ and then cancelled my sub.

>>713701548 (OP)
they decided that they have to reinvent the wheel every game
sometimes, you make a square wheel

its fuckin 120 dollars for a 20 hour game i'll play once

>>713705891
>gaylo knockoff
>blast
Go back

>>713707047
nta but if it was Halo knock-off then maybe the gameplay would be fun lmao

>>713707110
>gaylo
>fun
Christ

>>713701548 (OP)
only triple ass slop sells nothing new. Don't think doom will ever appeal to casuals

>>713701548 (OP)
Those robot and dragon levels were some seriously Canadian tier bullshit. The game felt like a PSP spin-off not a mainline Doom game.

I just finished eternal + the dlc. It was fine. It had some pretty big problems but it was a fine game. I can understand not liking it but why the extreme hate?

>>713707498
>extreme hate
Where? It's a shit game. Is that too "extreme" for you, disingenuous faggot?

>>713707498
Retards are unable to comprehend a game when it asks them to apply just a little bit of effort to kill enemies

>>713707629
Its not shit its mediocre at worst

>>713702296
If you're bad at FPS I could see you saying that

>>713707158
>casualgoyim can't into good games
crikey

>>713701548 (OP)
Its a fucking tech demo, to be fair every Doom game is a tech demo but this is way more blatant. Its a excuse to show how many more enemies the engine can manage without much tought put on the gameplay itself. There are more enemies on screen but you never are required to think strategically about how to manage them, you just make mechanical desitions, its just choreography

> Oh, shield enemies? throw the shield at them
>Oh, energy shields, better use the plasma gun
>Oh, a mob of trash enemies, just throw the fucking shield at them
>Oh, an armored enemy, better use the cannonball

and so on, its braindead. Its like the devs never beated Plutonia, let alone any good wad made in the last 10+ years.

>>713708506
so if you dislike COD:Ghosts does that mean you're bad at FPS?

>>713707498
It filters people.

>>713702150
Daddy fleek don't need this slander, pimp

>>713708596
It's more like saying you think the Mona Lisa is shit art because you're colorblind. Eternal is objectively good. It filters players that are bad at arena FPS. Simple as.

>>713707498
It filters shitters. Then they come here to seethe. Simple as.

>>713708594
To be fair, this criticism also applies to Eternal; the difference lies in the impact of the choices you make. The Dark Ages is more open-ended in terms of mechanics, but because there are so many, the overall experience feels more shallow and cluttered. Eternal is more focused, but in Eternal, you don't have to "think"; you simply react to what the game throws at you.

>>713701548 (OP)
No shit retard, it's on games pass. Only an idiot would buy a game for $70 when they could just subscribe to the pass for a month then cancel.

>>713701548 (OP)
Doom got memed too much to the point of it being associated with cringe, then the devs took it in the cringiest direction possible.

industry experts will be debating what went wrong for years to come

>>713711267
they should get rid of that gay Shitternal UI for good instead of just toning it down a little but leaving it there anyway.

>>713702648
Wrong! It doesn't play like Eternal

>>713701548 (OP)
>70/80 dollars/euros
>A mess of non-compatable gamedesign decisions
>One of the worst implementations of parrying in a videogame (only PoE2 is worse, and most people won't remember that it had a parry)
>Forced RTX
>A ton of better and cheaper games coming out this year
Let's be honest, it had no chance to be a success

>>713711267
in the game's defense the webm is clearly playing on super easy and is still fucking up most of the parries. most any game is going to look like shit under those circumstances.

>>713711506
so its actually good?

>>713711570
y-yeah

>>713701548 (OP)
They tried to innovate too much and not enough. Dark Ages is somewhere between reinventing Doom while also trying to stay true to the brand and it didn't work. This half assed bullshit didn't appeal to anyone. Either stick to the corridors of classic Doom or commit to the revamp and turn it into a fucking story driven third person shooter with dialogue choices or go Doom 3 and really lean into the horror aspect with super deadly combat and slim resources.

>>713701548 (OP)
79.99

>>713711267
Better than every boss in Eternal desu

>>713701548 (OP)
it's going to be so funny when publishers try to sell their slop for 90$ this fall and nobody buys them

Literally every game is going to be a concord or dark ages.

>>713711996
I don't understand what you think you're proving.

none of the nudoom games are good
dark ages is the logical conclusion and response to eternal though

>>713712425
you can max out the difficulty sliders and the game is still sluggish parryslop

my only complaint is the game is too ez.

but it looks like they are already making it harder with hotfixes, and theyre making the slowmotion opt in opt out. deffo playing with it off in the dlc.

>>713713128
>the parry game is a parry game
ok

>>713701642
correct
I killed it
first doom since doom 2 I didn't buy day 1

The game is exponentially more fun the more you crank up the difficulty. If you're not playing at max difficulty settings you didn't finish the game.

>>713701548 (OP)
Doom fatigue.

it's the best of the nu dooms, which were pretty good to begin with. /v/ hates it because they can't run it, that's it. oh, and the gay streamers don't like it because it's not much fun to watch, so /v/tards can't form their opinion without them. there.
