[@87you87tube]

I think the ability of carrying all weapons at the same time is just as important as no reloading. When I saw a gameplay video on YT, the guy used the technique of switching between weapons to reduce the "cooldown" even further. As it turns out, even with guns not needing to reload, there are still lags between two shots, especially for the super shotgun and gause canon. But switching to another weapon is faster than that. So the guy killed a mancubus in about 2 seconds with 4-5 different weapons each shooting once. I tried that technique and it was not only faster, safer, and infinitely more satisfying.

[@87you87tube]

I think my only gripe for the game was not enough variety and brutality for mancubus glory kills. I want something like shoulder tackling right through its belly or pounding its whole meaty body into ground like a hamburger.

The chainsaw isn't "risk vs reward" it's "cost vs gain". That's because the chainsaw is a guaranteed kill, and also it has a lot of range (like berserk). About the range: I know the chainsaw is a melee weapon, but when you use it you "jump" to the closest enemy in the direction you're looking.

[@JayAreAitch]

Yeah it feels like "risk vs reward" is just an autopilot term that gets thrown around because people know that it denotes good game design. Though admittedly there is an aspect of risk vs reward in using glory kills, at least on Nightmare difficulty, since they leave you exposed for a second after you do them.

[@tylerkluttz3688]

As far as plot goes, DOOM actually did it fairly well; in a way it's like the first Star Wars movie, in that it's designed to reel you in and get you engaged. The lore about the Doom Slayer and Hell is really interesting and unique (there's strong evidence that he is indeed the original Doomguy, something that Eternal will without a doubt answer), and subtle/wordless moments like him punching every screen that had that megalomaniac Hayden's voice on it or him saving VEGA from complete atomization really helped define his personality. It's showing without telling. When it comes to the story and how it's presented to the player, you could do far, far, far, far worse than DOOM...*glares at Death Stranding and The New Colossus*...a whole lot worse.

[@MeatloafSwooshbear]

New Colossus's story was top tier but I agree that Doom did alright

[@thomasallen9974]

His saving Vega from its self sacrifice spoke volumes about his personality. It showed he has honor, respect, and genuinely values those who place the wellbeing of others above themselves. He could have let Vega die, but he didn't. Doomslayer decided Vega was more valuable then just a tool despite being an AI, he was a comrade in this war. Really, comparing Hayden and Vega tells you so much about the worldless beast that is Doomslayer.

The one thing that bothered me about this game were the upgrade points hidden in secret areas. If you don't find any secrets, you'll be in an objectively worse position down the road, whereas in the original games secrets were nothing but a small help, since they only contained supplies and maybe early access to one of the weapons. What this means is that some people (like me) end up feeling like they HAVE to find every secret in Doom 2016, unless they want to go around underequipped. It's not that terrible in practice, but the feeling is there.

Liked the video but wanted to throw in something, The five weapon upgrade points in the top right hand corner is you're combat rating, getting all five means you ripped and tore every demon in a level. The ones you get for challenges and exploration just add to those five, so you can earn a total of 10 total weapon upgrade points per level. If you kill every demon, unlock the two exploration points, and the three challenge points. Since there are five for combat, two for exploration, and three for mission challenges.

What do you mean by "the plot is bad and takes itself too seriously"? I'm thrilled to see how exactly will it progress after the ending plot twist! I loved almost every second of it! Except for the part where you have to listen to Samuel on the screen for two minutes. Other than that, I completely agree with everything you said.

I don't recall him saying the story was bad...

[@captainmega6310]

Or talking itself seriously

@@Soundwave1900 I thought he meant the story telling was pretty bad

@@captainmega6310 he was talking about the plot itself as well. 10s later he straight up says "the plot is shitty" :)

I know this is about Doom, but GOD manually picking up ammo, armor, and health is incredibly annoying in Wolfenstein The New Order. I want to shoot things, not worry about mashing the pick-up button whenever I get close to an item.

Im glad you mention halflife and halo in the same breath, love them both

i feel like a lot of your videos come down to “and then they made doom” and god, you’re right. what a godlike move by id software

I’m not a big fan of active pickups but that guitar tone is impossible without them. He nailed the music it is so damn good

You forget about Return to castle Wolfenstein in this video...

Doom 2016 even has a Rune that gives you infinite ammo! Not just all the time, but only when your armor is at 100 (and if you upgrade when its at 75) so you still have to run around and make sure to find armor upgrades to keep it there to keep your infinite ammo. But omg did it help with the final boss

There is a special place in hell for Doomguy. It's called a throne.

You didn't need to listen to Samuel Hayden... You could leave the room while he's still yapping

happy 2 year anniversary of this video

I AM SOO FUCKING GLAD U WENT INNNNN FOR THE SOUNDTRACKKK IS SOO FUCKING BADASSS

[@Silenthero66]

Good Lord they original Doom 4 looked so fucking bad. That we got Doom 2016 rather than THAT is evidence that there might be a god.

“Then they made doom” *murder intensifies*

[@mainaccount4056]

And in doom eternal you are a Roller coaster of death that stops when you run out of ammo in the middle of a hoard of demons

Just got this game on Switch. My first Doom game and I have next to no experience with FPS games (other than splatoon 2 which isn't an FPS but I have 400+ hours in) and I agree with just about everything you said here. The game is fun as hell and feels great to play even in handheld mode.
