Guest>making a finishers even more important and basically essential to the game
I wouldn’t call it an improvement.
Especially amplified by the fact that chainsaw fuel regenerates and fodder zombie spawns are infinite, which makes your resources infinite while pretending it’s scarce – it’s pretty pathetic and gameplay boils down to a takedown spam chore.

all enemies have a timed falter system. you can’t just spam more than one ballista shot on a baron since he won’t falter from that gun again , and he will damage you. you have to switch to another gun to do fast damage on him.
>The automatic action the game does for you before you’re too retarded to do anything for yourself in eternal.
fuck are you talking about ? every heavy enemy type has splash damage attacks that can either insta kill you or take all your armor and hp (on ultraviolence and nightmare) if you act like a moron and stick close to them

GuestI am pretty sure it’s based around "the doom I played is the true doom and every other doom has to be like that or it’s soulless".
With that approach in mind, it makes perfect sense:
Boomers who played 1 & 2 hated 3 and everything after 3 for obvious reasons.
Millennials who started with 3 think its the best one, while old ones are outdated trash and new ones are finisher cutscene galore trash.
Zoomers who played 2016 never knew better and would gobble any garbage disposed in their direction, so they praise both 16 and eternal.Reality is: Doom series was always shit with joke-tier script and it was only praised because it was the first fps not about nazis.

Guest>more platforming
in doom 1 and 2 you couldnt even jump and you still had platforming you had to bypass by timing your movement right.
>more cutscenes
all cutscenes in Eternal are skippable, even the small ones like where doomguy inserts a battery in a device.
>remember how 2016 was a breath of fresh air because it rarely wrestled control from the player and kept you in the perspective of doomguy at all times to increase immersion
2016 had plenty of moments whee you had Hayden lock you in a room to debrief you whilst you were stuck in first person. You couldn’t skip those. Eternal replaced 2016’s unskippable walking/talking sections with skippable cutscenes, and its much better.-

GuestIt’s because Doom Eternal is a puzzle game with a shooter skin.
There are correct ways to take out enemies and you need to make sure you ration your ammo so you have enough to take care of those enemies if and when they appear.
I loved how in 2016 every weapon felt viable against every enemy – not the case in eternal. Think I beat the 1st level, hated it and quit since I was scavenging for ammo in a doom game.

i got bored fast in 2016 once i realized i could jut cheese the game with one weapon on all enemies.
The new falter system in Eternal alongside the limited ammo and weapon switch tactics made combat much more enjoyable for me.-

GuestI didn’t like it when it first came out, either. Everything felt too sterilized. The level design, the way combat unfolded, the weak weapon sounds. It really seemed that iD wanted to huff the farts of Doom 3 but were pulled in the direction of what people *actually* wanted, OG Doom, and had to try and meet in the middle. Only the soundtrack has any redeeming quality, IMO. Everything else feels way too neat and tidied.
Eternal is so goddamn much better it’s such a messy chaotic game and they finally embraced the absurdity.

GuestI honestly prefer 2016 Doom over Eternal.
Eternal’s number one issue, as far as I’m concerned, is that the combat had a very blatant and obvious "loop," where as 2016 felt much more like the older Doom games to me.
That’s not to say I didn’t have any fun playing Eternal, but I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t pretty stale after awhile.-
