Doom: The Dark Ages - Previews Thread
Previews and first impressions of the new Doom game are out from various game journalists!
IGN: Doom: The Dark Ages - We've Played It!
PCGamesN: Doom The Dark Ages nails the essentials, but some of its new ideas fall short
VGC: Doom: The Dark Ages nails the gameplay, the tone, and the gore
RockPaperShotgun: I threw hands with Doom: The Dark Ages and its rock 'em sock 'em robot
So it’s basically Hexen?
Greetings, mortal. Are you ready to die?
Hmm, I'll wait for the Youtubers, this bunch gave Starfield top marks.
FWIW Eurogamer gave it a 3/5, IGN gave it a 7, and PCGamer gave it a 7.5
Those scores are still too high for Starfield
The previews are mostly positive but some opinions are mixed. It sounds like Eternal where some people love it while others aren't thrilled about the new changes.
What even is Doom anymore? It used to be a marine shooting demons on mars with a shotgun. Now it's some mythological fantastical fever dream bullshit where you ride dragons and execute perfectly timed combos against alien God things. It might be fun but it's certainly NOT Doom anymore.
Is this serious? Every Doom game has involved going to hell and fighting Demons from hell in space and such. You know, a mythological place and mythological creatures and insane situations that are clearly fantasy.
They changed the type of place and creatures slightly. This isn't really a stretch for the series.
There's story videos now, dafuq...
