They got achievements on this s***e?

I tested E1M1 and one thing I noticed was that the screen didn't flash when I picked up health pickups or when I got hurt by enemies or damaging floors

6 achievements popped up when I beat the first map with 100% items/kills/secrets

Dopamine

These achievements look MUCH more doable than the previous Doom 1 & 2 releases

last time I got everything except beating every level on nightmare which was kinda stupid since the community thought some levels were impossible to beat for years and only the top of the top yould beat them

new Doom snes port seems like a lot of work for something that will inevitably be a nerd fetish object/display piece

Is DOOM Eternal really more sweaty than 2016? Just wanna bloody my suit without worrying too much about juggling weapons or scavenging for bullets

You can play it like 2016 if you want. They really encourage you to weapon switch and use the grenades/flamethrower, but it’s not required.

Tbh the game isn’t even much harder not doing that as long as you’re not on nightmare mode

I've heard about the marauder being a pain to beat lol

Yeahhhhh lol

Even playing the game the intended way I struggle with them. Could just try and always have BFG ammo saved for them

Dark ages might be more for you

Really the only extra equipment you have the juggle is the shield. It’s a lot closer to 2016 than eternal imo, much slower

Bet. I saw Eternal for less that $4 but I held off on buying it

I mean for $4 it’s probably worth picking up just to see if it clicks with you. There’s a lot of game for that price

I think the Marauder got nerfed because he was insane when the game first came out

the thing with the marauder was that he's antithetical to doom by design. you basically have to bait a certain attack out of him for you to parry, drop his shield and deal damage. repeat this 2-3 times and he dies.

i think the whole parry mechanic wasnt well explained in the base game and that got a lot of people killed (me included) so he gained this notoriety, but if you know how to deal with him he's a pushover. even then i dont think he's a particularly well designed mob and didnt really fit in the game

Ngl I stopped playing eternal when dude started to show up as a regular enemy

I updated the thread but I don’t know if there are important news right now

I stopped prioritizing the boomer games and gave the newer games a banner as well

there should be a dlc for dark ages coming up, probably announced at the xbox show next month. i enjoyed dark ages but its crazy how it came and went, ended up being kinda forgettable
