>Man, I pine for the golden age of gaming when big releases were soaked in diarrhea colored hues and eye damaging “realistic lighting” aka bloom

That period in gaming isn’t something I really miss desu.

Reminder that Quake 2 was the original soulless brown shooter

The golden age is subjective, to me it was the 90's. I can't imagine being so butt blasted over colour schemes

That era was still comfier and funner than the last ten years at least

At the time I thought brown shooters were the worst that vidya would ever get

Oh how wrong I was
How blissfully ignorant I was of true horror...

The only brown and bloom game I recall playing was RE5, so I didn't experience this meme

Only in software mode. Both Quake 1 and 2 frequently get memed on for being brown.

Be honest, anons — between the brown-and-bloom stuff we got in the late 6th and early 7th gen consoles and the pastel colored shit that gets pumped out every year now, which would you rather choose?

That picture you posted is 50% brown (and another 25% grey).

I did play Fallout 3, but I remember it being more green & grey. NV was more brown & orange.

I'm glad you clarified the issue by posting all three games released during the duration of the 6th gen

I remember being /outraged/ about Titanfall being a 50Gb install on PC "who has that much free space etc". Nowadays the latest Call of Duty game is at least 120Gb. I wonder how many gigabytes are dedicated to microtransactions?

>dying takes you back to the start of the level

Doom's levels aren't big enough to make these different.
Also
>Epic boss battles
Doom's bosses all kind of suck. The Bruiser Brothers are a great set piece aesthetically but are basically just bigger imps. Cyberdemon is okay but easily falls to circle strafing and if anything combining rockets with lost souls is about as dangerous anyway. Spidey is a joke in continuous play and easy from pistol start. Icon of Sin was an attempt to do something different that's mostly just annoying.
