It's due to your lack of upgrades and weapons once you start getting upgrades/runes/guns the game isn't as difficult. It's still hard but it's more manageable.

This right here. Was getting my shyt caved in through the first 3 levels on UV but upgraded to 2 grenades ASAP and picked everything that would lower cooldown times for equipment. Saves you ammo.

Bought Doom 2016 for $5 online for Steam. Will play that first and then get this later. Never played that one.
Do that.
At least you'll know what to expect on the next one.
Even so, they throw a lot at you on this joint :russ:...but you'll be prepped.

Might be right breh, when I went to sleep all I could think about in my dreams was killing demons. :damn:



I've only missed like 2 secrets in the entire game thus far so I've been doing all that, it's just that the action/down time ratio is a more on the action side than the last game. Game is a constant adrenaline rush compared to any other game I've probably ever played.
Bruh... It's like I do one or two intense cimbat arenas. Then, I take a break.

Spent most of my time loving the vistas and Earth Level microscope details.

Just checked, they got legitimate criticisms that I actually agree with. I don't think they are weird outside of them giving 0s instead of 6s or 7s. But I guess for some people everything is either a 0 or a 10.

I'm on the last stage of the game and I still think Doom 2016 is better, this game is fun but they changed it a lot from what Doom originally was. I see both sides. Its funny tho because when people criticize this game people just say its because your trash, but the people criticizing it mostly are long standing doom fans that been playing it since the OGs.

Damned if you do. Damned if you don't.

People complain a sequel is too samey or too different.

I love this game 10x more than Doom (2016). Doom overstayed it's welcome and game is kind of broken with infinite ammo rune. The game got boring for me around Vega level. I wasn't the biggest fan of Doom 2016. It was a bit too conservative. It was great sleeper hit in my book.

Doom Eternal is something I can play for a long time. It does has some weird
presentation issues, but some of those complaints are petty entitled bullshyt.

Complaining about Pacing? Graphics? platforming? Even same damn music from 2016?

I can understand gripes about the gameplay, but even the developer stated multiple times on the changes to combat and the purposes behind it. So, I can't even given them that.

The only legit thing I can argue is the multi being unbalanced as fukk and barebones because they refuse to compete with Quake Champion. They still should of done a PvE mode and other none death match stuff. The toturial are intrusive as fukk and menu are super mediocre.

Everthing else is super nit picky... Cutscenes? Gameplay loop being too chaotic? Power up and pick ups being to video gamey while you play a video game? Skill system is too overwhelming like really?

Still a 9.0 in my book. Probably a 9.5 after all the DLC drops.

It's early on but I can definitely say it's not as formulaic as 2016.

I think both opinions can be valid. I don't agree with it being a 0 but I can see why people would be disappointed also.

You being someone who doesn't like Doom 2016 I can see enjoying it a lot more than someone who fell in love with it and expected more of the same (but better). Instead we got a different game essentially.
