Planning to finish Doom Eternal, then start on my next game in my backlog, Caves of Cud. Not sure what to expect or why I bought it in the first place but we’ll see! Was thinking about setting up a streaming thing too, not for money but just for fun.
I actually didn’t play the 2016 one lol. My timeline was like:
Original DOOM (1993)
DOOM 3 (2004)
Doom Eternal (2020)
It feels much more like the original Doom in an arcadey level based kill everything way, while Doom 3 felt like a horror game to me. I really liked it, though having to make a Bethesda account to play it and waiting to log in every time pissed me off. The game itself was great. High adrenaline. Jumping around the map killing everything brutally. Too hard for my old man reflexes though, so I played on easy mode.
Yeah most likely. But honestly I think I’ve had my fill with this type of game. I enjoyed my 16 hour campaign but I’m not sure I’ll buy the DLC or other entities. It’s not my primary genre by a long shot so it was a bit of a “oh it’s hugely discounted? I’ll buy this and play it 4 years later” kind of thing
I hear ya… I find it to be pretty full on and while it’s fun while it lasts I couldn’t play FPSs like that all the time! I usually play them in between RPGs/JRPGs to switch things up a bit.
Believe it or not but I’m normally a visual novel / puzzle / sim gamer… Stuff like Stardew Valley, The Return of the Obra Dinn, Omori, Slay the Princess, etc. But I was getting a bit bored of playing the same genre over and over, so I’m like, y’know what fuck it, Doom was good 20 years ago it’s probably still good today. Try new things. Maybe I’ll play the Bluey videogame next

How has Doom Eternal been compared to the 2016 one? It’s on my list too but IDK if I’ll get to it this year.

Ahh lol no probs!
By the sounds of it, you’ll very probably like the 2016 one too, it’s very much the same as what you described.
