the-dark-ages

[hollow sandal]

This is super random but does anyone remember bobthebob?

[frail bloom]

I'm not really sure on that since Chad was just working under Marty but I'm not too sure either

[hollow sandal]

Where's my mans 😭

[uneven dragon]

Example: Final Sin — Sandy City (Track 59) was a rough idea mocked up in haste for the ending cutscene.

This exact demo file was immediately rejected. In fact, Chad was part of the panel that rejected it. But he included the file on the album and listed himself as a co-artist, despite having absolutely nothing to do with it.

[frail bloom]

I see, is that the letter from mick

[uneven dragon]

yes

[autumn dawn]

iirc he does doom machinimas?

[uneven dragon]

honestly i think chad shouldve just like. refused to work on the album. but i suppose you cant really do that and expect to keep your job

but i feel like they wouldve been forced to get mick to do it if he had

[mystic barn]

Problem is though, just because Chad was apart of the panel that rejected it, it doesn’t mean that it was his decision to list himself as co-composer, nor was it his decision to include rejected stems in-game or on the CE OST. Yes he’s the audio director, but there’s not a lot of evidence to suggest he was doing what he did out of malice or his own volition

[uneven dragon]

wouldnt he be the one naming the file when exporting it

[mystic barn]

Absolutely. But again, attributing Chad’s mistakes as a sort of malicious slight against Mick is unsubstantiated, especially when he’s shown to be charitable and a source of guidance for both Andrew Hulshult and David Levy. Again, Chad has to work for Marty too

[frail bloom]

Ye all we can hope is that finishing move will be treated fairly and not go through what mick went through

[hollow sandal]

I think Marty will play nice this time around

[frail bloom]

Sidenote: I might call Finishing move by the composers names as it sounds better

We have brian, brian, who are the other two?

[hollow sandal]

Who are they?

[mystic barn]

Alex and Jay

[uneven dragon]

i dont think chad is as bad as marty but he's done a couple of shady things that make me go 🤨

[frail bloom]

The brian brothers...

[uneven dragon]

but that's more speculative

[frail bloom]

Baron brothers...

[uneven dragon]

really he did the most evil thing of all which was rejecting into sandy's city /j

[frail bloom]

At least it's in this game

And in 2016 and eternal although much more different

[uneven dragon]

speaking of david levy the descriptions on his recent ost uploads are... so depressing...

[frail bloom]

What do they say?

[mystic barn]

It looks like his recent visit to the id Software offices was to hash out a means of releasing his part of The Ancient Gods OST. I feel bad for the guy. I talk to him every now and then, and he seems so bummed by the Eternal music situation. As an artist, you want your work to be published and enjoyed, but people like Marty tend to prevent that either intentionally or unintentionally

[uneven dragon]

Be sure to check out this track—and the rest of The Ancient Gods soundtrack—which, of course, you can’t stream or buy anywhere.

and stuff like that

and it seems like bethesda/id are just... refusing to let him release them

[frail bloom]

Poor guy, he deserves an album release

[uneven dragon]

so he's having to just put them on youtube for no profit

which is... yikes 😬

[frail bloom]

Makes me worried that we won't get tda ost on spotify

[uneven dragon]

yeah i was worried about that too

[frail bloom]

Or at least concerned

[uneven dragon]

Eternal had a huge drama behind its soundtrack so that didnt get released

[mystic barn]

Finishing Move have stated their work will be released on Spotify. Generally speaking, contractors don’t get residuals for streams, so David got his bag, he just wants his work released so people can enjoy it

[uneven dragon]

and ID/Bethesda are just... refusing to let the composers of TAG and Mighty Doom release their osts too

which sucks

[frail bloom]

Oh thank goodness

[hollow sandal]

Is Marty a big part in this? Or higher up?

[uneven dragon]

🤷‍♀️ idk the inner workings of ID

[frail bloom]

Ye, but hopefully if david is releasing his tracks, that means we'll get very high quality mixes with him, I've never heard a clean crisp version of storm the gates till he released it.

[uneven dragon]

it sucks that we had to go through like 4 mistreated composers before another modern doom soundtrack release

[hollow sandal]

Ok I'll Keep blaming Marty for now xd

[uneven dragon]

yea but it would be nice if he could post them properly

[frail bloom]

Yes that too most importantly

[uneven dragon]

dang

ngl not a huge fan of how david separates all versions of a song into separate tracks we're gonna have like 500 immora songs lmfao

[frail bloom]

I'll never understand why ID/Betheseda have such an arbitrary mindset with their game ost's

[mystic barn]

That’s just for the videos. All of those Immora chunks are part of the one song

[frail bloom]

At least 2016 is on spotify

[frail bloom]

You should listen to dinoheretics mixes they're very high quality

[uneven dragon]

doesnt his riffs video give them all different titles tho

like headstomp and through the walls and etc

like idk i feel like he's gonna separate light combat and heavy combat and ambient for some reason

[mystic barn]

Yeah, again, just for the videos. The light combat theme features the same leitmotif as The City of Immora and Hell’s Armies, meaning at least those 3 sections are apart of the same song. Beyond the Walls is in the same key as these aforementioned sections, so they’re the same song too. While in a different key, parts of Headstomp feature the same leitmotif, so are also the same song. The ambience is in a different tempo altogether, so I’d say it’d be a separate song

[uneven dragon]

i wonder what the songs will actually be called

headstomp or beyond the walls or city of immora are all really good titles...

[autumn dawn]

The Shredder

my fanmade title inspired by Doom 2's Map 6 and the Skull Crusher gun

looking at it more, it's a meh title

[mystic barn]

While not official, this is my best attempt at an arrangement for the Immora suite. It tactfully incorporates both the light and heavy combat, as well as all main motifs drive.google .com/file/d/1r-wzBVLKYIQ8_TcSdsT8YN1MEcj61-Gd/view?usp=drivesdk (just take the space out between google and .com)

Obviously these stems are compressed to no end, but until I can get more HQ stems from David, this is the best it’s gonna get unfortunately

[autumn dawn]

thank you Koma

[mystic barn]

I know you joke, but Koma is a very cool dude and it’s a shame he’s no longer on the internet. I hope he’s doing well

To be compared to him is very meaningful

[autumn dawn]

yeah Koma is awesome

the guys who archive his content are cool as well

[cyan lotus]

"no longer on the internet" lol

[autumn dawn]

i dont know if he'd deleted his socials

[cyan lotus]

he's one of the moderators here

he doesn't use the user "koma" anymore, just using variations of anagrams of it

[mystic barn]

The account that I know of is completely gone

[cyan lotus]

the youtube account yes, I'm more so nitpicking, taking fun jabs, he still is very much on the internet tho

[mystic barn]

He’s also gone by pirunvirsi as well (in fact, that was his main username), but it too is gone, both from reddit and here on discord. Forgive me for not knowing he’s still around

[cyan lotus]

hahaha you're good just taking the piss a bit

[autumn dawn]

could he be Mako?

[cyan lotus]

yea

[autumn dawn]

ohhh

[cyan lotus]

superman clark kent type shit

[mystic barn]

I had no idea that was his account. Cool stuff

(had no idea that account exist altogether lol)

[autumn dawn]

he should have kept his original pfp and just put glasses over it and nobody would know

[silent surge]

accidental FF7 reference

[autumn dawn]

very accidental (i have no idea what FF7 is)

[silent surge]

final fantasy 7
VII rather

[uneven dragon]

wtf fefetasprite

[cyan lotus]

yes

[uneven dragon]

awesome

[cyan lotus]

homexstucks in doom server more likely than youd thinl

havent actually read it in like 2ish years but the pfps iconic

[uneven dragon]

they brought fefetasprite back recently

[uneven dragon]

i stopped reading for ages but homestuck2 is good now so ive been dragged back into the pit of despair

[vagrant path]

all I know about homestuck is that most of it's fans are deranged demons

[uneven dragon]

ah that explains why we're in the doom server

[barren iron]

the homestuck fandom is uh, it's interesting

[vapid lodge]

this is really an interesting insight regarding the DLC ost... Poor David is really trying to get his work published....

I remember Marty presenting Andrew at quake con last year as their "good friend" like some sort of PR move that makes us think id has great relationship with their composers - which from the looks of it its not...

Also makes me think that Finishing move lawyered the hell out and made sure they closed all the loop holes so that they are not gonna mess this up

No wonder they keep uploading high quality stuff on youtube

[silent surge]

what would uploading high quality stuff do?
they’ve said OST comes out same day as game

[vapid lodge]

Yes, you are right but it makes me think that they are protected contractually. Im not inclined in regards to the law or anything like this. However the way finishing move are uploading these previews makes me think the same problem its not gonna repeat again

What do I know tho? Im just speculating

but I dont think id would even dare to mess with Finishing Move

[hard thistle]

"Be sure to check out this track-- and the rest of the ancient gods soundtrack-- which, of course, you can't stream or buy anywhere" in the description of david's doom videos 💀

[uneven dragon]

💔 why must ID treat him like this

[mystic barn]

The previews that Finishing Move are uploading are very reassuring; they’re confident in their work, enough to generate hype through little snippets

[vapid lodge]

yeah youre right

[vapid lodge]

If id software releases the OST for Eternal DLC, what do you think its gonna happen next?

fans will ask about the Base game, meaning Mick

thats why David gets "pushed back"

We will get the truth at some point

[uneven dragon]

i dont think releasing tag will really change the flood of "release eternal ost" comments tbh

people already want eternal out

[vapid lodge]

what I mean is that it will stir the waters

[uneven dragon]

though i guess it makes sense to mistreat another composer so that mistreating your first composer doesnt get out

[mystic barn]

I strongly doubt anything will come of Eternal’s soundtrack, base, DLC, or otherwise

[uneven dragon]

i understand base ost not coming out cause like how do you even begin to solve that situation but i think it is scummy to not let the dlc ost release

like david and andrew did nothing bruh

[mystic barn]

So not to ruffle community feathers; “if Andrew and David get their music released for DLC, why can’t Mick get his released?” The Dark Ages is a different thing entirely as it’s a new game totally divorced of Mick Gordon

[uneven dragon]

i think that is a rather lame reason tbh

and still kind of scummy

[mystic barn]

I agree, but I’m sure it’s among the many reasons why nothing’s being done with Andrew and David’s music. Furthermore, it stifles attacks to both their music and their person; can you imagine the meltdown if the TAG OST was released? The amount of people who would send death threats to Andrew and David for something totally out of their control would be astronomical

[uneven dragon]

yea but if david has expressed interest in having it be released why not yk

idk i just dont feel like there would be that much of a meltdown

[mystic barn]

There’s no easy way to release the TAG OST without also contracting Mick to finish and fix the Eternal OST too. Far too many people would see it as unfair, preferential treatment if TAG was released on its own

[mystic barn]

To get back on topic, I think my theory of Siege as a two-part level holds true. In watching the Developer_Direct again for the 20th time today, there’s a clip of the player fighting an Agaddon Hunter. It looks like it takes place in the same environment, but later in the afternoon (judging by the lighting and the general location). We’ve yet to see the Agaddon in the Siege material released so far

[warm ibex]

I do want to add that lighting seems to change depending on your exact location in each level

you'll walk through an area that has mid day lighting and then it'll change to a darker, more washed out grey as you move into a new portion of the map. some areas are more blue, some are green and swamp-like, there's tons of variety on just a single map

[mystic barn]

I did notice that too. It’s especially noticeable when battling the armoured pinky sub boss. The power of RTX!

[hollow sandal]

Just noticed there is a small armor icon next to the reticle when you hit demon armor

[hollow sandal]

@warm ibex i noticed for the melee finishers if the slayer finishes with a kick or a punch or shield it doesn't consume a melee stock

But you still get resources

[grim cloud]

gameplay illegal, watching it while i can

cant figure out one of the dungeons, took him a bit to beat it

[final dune]

huh?

[grim cloud]

its from a day or two ago,

nearly a hour of his entire siege gameplay on youtube

[final dune]

oh the 44 minute one?

[hollow sandal]

Jeff?

[grim cloud]

yes i tihk so

[hollow sandal]

Yea extrajeff

[hollow sandal]

I'm just confused on how these melee are differentiated. If it doesn't consume a melee you shouldn't get resources? There are different melee?

[grim cloud]

there are no battle knights in siege it seems

not a single fucking BattleKnight

[hollow sandal]

Yea I saw the fight with one, I can't remember the level

[grim cloud]

it was just on broll, part of the dragon flying level i think

and even then you fight him at the end, only a few streamers made it that far

[hollow sandal]

Ohhh

[grim cloud]

maybe the horde mode guy can confirm that

[hollow sandal]

Ohh yea and you get a health upgrade I think

[grim cloud]

u also fight one under a bridge in the seige level or something, maybe, not sure. But that is it

[hollow sandal]

Sorry to bother @grim cloud but you wouldn't happen to have any idea about my question above regarding melee attacks

[grim cloud]

i don tiknow of the question. ill say maybe

[hard thistle]

Does it have anything to do with the purple circle

From what I've seen the purple circle is just "free melee attack"

[hollow sandal]

Yea that makes sense, I only see the kicks and punch and shield attack on the purple circle

Makes sense. Thank you!

[grim cloud]

fyi i never played the game, i just saw extended footage at quakecon last year

[hollow sandal]

Gotcha

[grim cloud]

there was ONE demon in that footage we havn't seen. But...

Im keeping that to my self

[hollow sandal]

Fair

[grim cloud]

just kidding, i made that up

[hollow sandal]

xd

[grim cloud]

come on lol

trying to think, i sure all qc footage was been shown now. There was some more flying stuff

like in the reveal last jan, there was some more of that scene

killing the "extra big" cacodemon thing

but i assume it was the same as the recently released caco

but looking at it agian, its different right?

[hollow sandal]

I just watched it, I couldn't find what you're talking about

[grim cloud]

7:12 on official video

dev direct

it must be larger. Official Name

CacoKraken

[hollow sandal]

Thanks

Yea it does look different

[grim cloud]

i made that name up, but it fits for now i think

[hollow sandal]

I wonder if you can fight it as the slayer as well

[grim cloud]

slayer has killed titans without a mech suit before

prob just faster on a dragon

rewatching offcial direct is showing me new stuff

[autumn dawn]

Krakodemon

[fleet spruce]

Craco, if you will

[proud cloud]

bruh

30 DAYS LEFT TILL DTDAAA

[glad sinew]

Question here, if I buy the standard version of Doom The dark ages and then buy the premium upgrade, shouldn’t I be able to play the game 2 days early or am I stupid?

[dreamy kiln]

Sorry but no

[glad sinew]

What… even tho the premium upgrade says on it (play 2 days early) ??

[dreamy kiln]

You can get both but you can't get the standard edition two days early, only premium

[glad sinew]

Well that’s stupid 🤦🏼‍♂️

Waste of money

[uneven dragon]

Yeah probably I think

[glad sinew]

Someone said no to that and I’ve been trying to play it today but not working

[uneven dragon]

It’s not 2 days before launch is it….?

Wouldn’t you still have to wait like 28 days

[vagrant path]

omg 28 days like 28 days later the movie???? 🤯

[uneven dragon]

woah,,,,

[barren iron]

That is quite the miscalculation

[glad sinew]

Yeah I guess I’m just mad because I bought the premium upgrade says 2 days early but you can’t play 2 days early so just a waste of money for me

They should label it better

[graceful lion]

you can play 2 days early with the premium upgrade tho?

otherwise they wont put that there

becuase that would be stupid

[glad sinew]

Yeah apparently if you buy the super expensive version

[graceful lion]

theres only 2 versions..?

[dreamy kiln]

3

[glad sinew]

For gamepass there’s 3 versions

[graceful lion]

oh u on gamepass

premium ed lets you play 2 days early on steam atleast

[glad sinew]

Standard version, premium upgrade version and the premium ultimate version

[graceful lion]

premium ultimate

iphone pro max ahh

[glad sinew]

I really hoped that I could play today but I guess I’m gonna have to wait until the 15

[graceful lion]

today??

the game releases in may bro, not april

[glad sinew]

I’m not spending 1200kr for the game to play on the 13

[graceful lion]

theres still like a month left

[plain iron]

I payed $340aud for a collector's edition

And the helmet too

[graceful lion]

i pray for a price thats like 10% tda's price 🙏

[glad sinew]

Bruh I’ve must have been high or something I’m a freaking idiot

[graceful lion]

bro is a month in the future

[glad sinew]

It’s bloody April now Jesus

[graceful lion]

the discord would be fuckin exploding if it was the 13th

[glad sinew]

I’m so bloody dumb xD

Well I’ve just made a fool out of myself

Great

https://tenor.com/view/the-simpsons-homer-simpson-hiding-embarrassed-bush-gif-2460756092294391734

I’m just gonna leave and never talk about this again……

[graceful lion]

its ok

[glad sinew]

🫠

[plain iron]

Dw we all fuck up sometimes

[fleet spruce]

i forget a thing or two some times as well

[vagrant path]

The spoilers would be CATASTROPHIC

[graceful lion]

PRINCE ASSCRACK HAS A RED BOOTY

[vagrant path]

doom slayer has a son???!?!?!?

[graceful lion]

does he?

[sleek ermine]

hmmm

what if...

I get the newest generation Xbox

in 2026

when it releases

or nah

[hollow sandal]

Yes, get it

[sleek ermine]

Xbox PRIIIIIMMMMEEEEEEE

[dreamy kiln]

Yes

I would think it's the doom 3 marine

[sleek ermine]

fuck you VEGA

[sleek ermine]

xbox primmmmeeeeeee

help

I got my mind frozen on smth again

either

I guarantee me getting TDA

or I try to get a console that is not confirmed

[graceful lion]

aint that just a pic of doomguy and his mom

[sleek ermine]

and even if it is true, TDA being there is not confirmed

[dreamy kiln]

Probably not because of an unused eternal voiceline

[graceful lion]

what does the voiceline say

[dreamy kiln]

It's the kahn maykr telling the doom slayer if he does her bidding then she'll revive his family

You can look it up if you want

[slender night]

Every Xbox has had BC of some kind, I would count on it

[sleek ermine]

i'm stupid but what is BC

[slender night]

Backwards compatibility

[sleek ermine]

oh yeah

ok I'll try to discuss with my parents and stuff

[graceful lion]

it works with the ps5, xbox series s and x

i think series s is the weakest of those

[wooden acorn]

Day 80 of 112

[sleek ermine]

I know

am talking about a potential "Xbox Prime" console

[river field]

Just pre ordered the game, can’t wait till mid may man

[hollow sandal]

Yea it's gonna be sick

[fleet spruce]

gonna upgrade to ROG Ally X , 2-3 hrs of new Doom on the go won't be enough, i want 5-6 hrs

[barren iron]

I doubt you'll get 5-6 hours

[fleet spruce]

I'm not gonna play beyond 720p low settings so very much possible

[barren iron]

ewh

[fleet spruce]

probably closer to 4.5-5 hrs but that's still good enough

[rare flax]

Guys I have a question... will it be possible to disable the raytrancing on doom TDA or it will be a setting that can't be changed?

[fleet spruce]

Seems to be not possible because it's part of the engine features this time

You just need raytracing capable card tbh, specs listed are with 1080p 60 fps experience in mind

[rare flax]

An rtx 3060

It's good

But has only 6gb of vram

[fleet spruce]

yeah, you're good enough, just don't crank up settings

[rare flax]

That's a problem

[rare flax]

I only need to play it in 60fps 1080p

Settings are not a problem, I can set them to low if it's necessary

[sonic ivy]

You guys think dark ages will eventually be on switch 2?

[final dune]

any new info or concept art or anything?

[hard thistle]

If switch 2 can do raytracing then there's probably a decent chance

[untold patio]

[harsh egret]

they dont post new stuff during the weekend

[final dune]

Dang

[hollow sandal]

Apparently there is a new difficulty level called 'Pandemonium' and is this game's 'extra life mode'

Idk how reliable the source is

But yea

[sleek sand]

thx. really had nothing to eat today

what a kind man

i bet u get all the girls

[hard thistle]

He's not even in the server anymore

[graceful lion]

the vram is gonna be a limiting factor, but 6gb might be enough

[thick shell]

Doom God

[graceful lion]

doomguy not god

[oak temple]

1 month today until Doom

[vapid lodge]

I dont know but Marty answered this question and he said TBD, they need to check the system's configuration and see if it somehow supports it

I really like that he gave a straight answer, apart from last time when they were asked about a switch version, same for RTX - they were really vague about it

[silent surge]

accurate, mentioned it in my video. pandemonium = extra life mode, aspiring slayer = skill 1 (replaces i’m too young to die)

[hollow sandal]

Sick, so we will be able to select a difficulty within extra life mode correct?

[silent surge]

id imagine so, i didn’t test it though to confirm

[hollow sandal]

Ok sick, thanks

[frail bloom]

@hard thistle I was just reading the codexes and it says in "history of the sentinels pt 5", that the demons came through the fabric of dimensions and not ships yet in the khalim concept art, they board through ships, may you explain this please?

[hard thistle]

The History of the Sentinels Codex here is, IIRC, talking about the original invasion of the demons. The demons can still use ships. It's just not how they reach their destination.

They invade via portals and then can use things like ships or Titans to traverse the area.

[frail bloom]

Oh yeah it was just worded weirdly, thank you

[feral bane]

Excluding Immora does Hell have a fleet of ships?

Feel like we usually just see demons flying around during invasions, not air or spacecraft

[hard thistle]

We don't really see any in 2016 or Eternal. I suspect they are using ships in TDA to combat more advanced Sentinel tech, or, potentially, that the ships they're using have been commandeered from the Sentinels.

[feral bane]

I’m guessing it’s the latter

Hell having a penchant for stealing tech is kinda their thing

[hard thistle]

Other than TDA the only Doom content I know of to talk about Hell spacecraft is the dubiously canon TNT: Evilution talking about it.

[final dune]

khalim concept art?

[hard thistle]

I'm assuming this as well. Hell's own understanding of tech seems finicky and not as elaborate as their knowledge of magic bullshit. They tend to rely on tech from assimilated worlds.

[frail bloom]

Yeah from like a month back

[final dune]

oh

[feral bane]

I wonder what demons would be piloting a ship anyways

Zombies are probably the most likely

[hard thistle]

I bet Barons would know how. Maybe intelligent Imps, or Archviles.

[feral bane]

Archviles probably would be Hell’s equivalent to shipmasters

[frail bloom]

Speaking of barons, I see them in the codex in part V. is it unlikely that they'll appear in their classic form, what do you think?

[hard thistle]

I'd like that but I doubt it.

[feral bane]

I miss classic Barons

[frail bloom]

They've been pretty accurate so far, but it's best to not get your hopes up so yeah, but there is a chance.

[frail bloom]

Me too

[uneven dragon]

Isn’t there one in Cultist Base that was a scrapped level?

[frail bloom]

Unrelated but they should've allowed you to switch between the idle animations and the still animations for eternals model viewer

I wanna see them move and twitch

[grim cloud]

so is it confirmed there isn't a second weapon option for the chainshot?

[mystic barn]

The Blood Harvester, yeah. It was more of a cultist ship than a demonic ship, if the distinction really matters. We can see the Blood Harvester floating above Cultist Base

[hollow sandal]

I beleive it's confirmed

Well that's what I've heard from a few different youtubers

[mystic barn]

Seems like the Reaver Chainshot is unique. I doubt the BFG will have an alt fire, so it looks like we have 12 different guns, 10 of which are alt fires of the base gun

[hollow sandal]

I noticed a negative of these weapons classes is you may have to switch twice to get to the weapon you want sometimes.

And the switching is a little slower in this game. But oh well, a minor thing

[silent surge]

that low gravity concept yea

[stoic sleet]

Honestly doom eternal was too difficult

They should add a bfg chaingun to the dark ages

With infinite ammo

[barren iron]

I was playing Eternal earlier (I'm on Ultra-VIolence, and tried one of the slayer gates after you first enounter a marauder, now, a maurader on it's own? not super difficult, a maurader while juggling a bunch of other demons? SIGNIFICANTLY harder

[stoic sleet]

Marauders are easy

[barren iron]

mauraders themselves are not difficult

[stoic sleet]

I really hope in tda theres an enemy type similar to marauders

[barren iron]

fighting them in a small arena with dozens of other demons to fight was annoying

[stoic sleet]

Try the holt slayer gate btw, theres a possessed marauder while fighting a few blood maykrs and carcasses

And fodder

[uneven dragon]

Isn’t that what the aggadon hunters are

[frail bloom]

You should specify what you mean by difficult

[stoic sleet]

Im joking

It is difficult but not too difficult

[frail bloom]

Ah k

[stoic sleet]

idk tbh i havent really been focusing on small parts of trailer

[frail bloom]

I wanna fight 60 demons and crowd control

[stoic sleet]

I just hope bosses are better

Gladiator and Doom hunter are only bosses i liked

[barren iron]

I do hope they balance that better in TDA

[frail bloom]

I haven't seen any potential bosses besides the armored titan and the agaddon hunter

[stoic sleet]

And doom hunter isnt even a boss atp

[barren iron]

Doom hunters are actually super fun to fight

[stoic sleet]

Samur maykr is complete bullshit

Doomhunters are my second favourite enemy

[frail bloom]

And the latter is in multiple fights most likely

[barren iron]

That arena in cultist base where you're fighting two of them is one of my favorite sections

[stoic sleet]

Same

I also like the double marauders in immora

With screechers

[barren iron]

plus cultist base is one of my favorite songs on the soundtrack

[stoic sleet]

I just wish they didnt nerf the non boss hunters

Like if they made all hunters after the hunter base the same strength as part 2 i would love it

[frail bloom]

It's probably for balancing reasons

[stoic sleet]

Yeah ig

Honestly this will be controversial

But finishing move will probably have more listenable songs outside of gameplay

Mick was really good but i could never find myself listening to his songs outside of eternal

[frail bloom]

Well yeah more levels demands a lot more soundtracks

[stoic sleet]

They fit eternal but not as singular songs is what im saying

[frail bloom]

Whatever composer you like is preference, I personally can't wait to hear some medieval bangers and catch some classic doom references if I can

[stoic sleet]

The title screen teaser was rlly good imo

And infernal chasm is basic but i like it

[frail bloom]

Yeah so heavy, it's weird cuz it's the only main menu theme you can work out to besides doom 3's

Cuz the others drop hard but it's more passive if that makes sense

[stoic sleet]

Yeah

[frail bloom]

This one just full throttle unga bungas all over the place

[stoic sleet]

Im downloading the ost the second it hits may 13th or 15th

[frail bloom]

It's on spotify this time too so thank goodness

[stoic sleet]

Idk if ost drops on early access or official release

[frail bloom]

I'd say official release, but early access gives you the digital soundtrack so it's a win-win

[stoic sleet]

I wanna pre order for pre order skin

But i dont wanna play it until 15th and ill be tempted to play it on 13th

[frail bloom]

There are so many better reasons to preorder but you do you

You could get the digital artbook, soundtrack, 2 day early access and dlc when it's out

Plus muh divinity skin

[stoic sleet]

Thats premium edition

[frail bloom]

Yeah, collecters gives you even more

But I'm not paying 200+

[stoic sleet]

That helmet was sick tho

Yk what i find funny

This games doomslayer is the weakest out of 2016, eternal and tda but this one will make you feel the strongest

[hard thistle]

What

[frail bloom]

I'd say 2016 is the weakest cuz he just woke up compared to tda and eternal where they are either in constant battle or prepared as hell

Either way they're not some immortal god they can be hurt

[stoic sleet]

Tbf i do hate doomslayer wank, outerversal is just insane

[frail bloom]

Yeah that is just pure glaze, there's a reason why the demons keep fighting the slayer and that's cuz if they manage to overwhelm him they can kill him

[stoic sleet]

Yeah, i would say he scales to city level tbh

[frail bloom]

He needs guns cuz they are optimal, not cuz of muh "torture of da demons over humanity"

But anyways yeah it's his battle intelligence and experience that makes him cool plus his backstory

[stoic sleet]

I personally do think his fists are stronger but getting close to a mancubus is too dangerous

I swear to fucking god i hate cultist base so fucking much with those fuckass mancubus

[frail bloom]

Maybe but it's judt not optimal when trying to stop a demon invasion

[frail bloom]

As long as it's not UN I love cultist base but yeah I'd pb rocket the mancubi

Plus save your freeze bombs for em

[stoic sleet]

I have to thank deadkey for pb rocket

Console is torture sometimes

[frail bloom]

I play on console

[stoic sleet]

But if i got nightmare horde mode comp i can get un on all campaigns

Anyway today i got a pretty good nightmare practice run

I didnt die on the 2 hardest arenas in cb

[frail bloom]

I never die but on UN my nerves are my biggest enemy

[stoic sleet]

Kinda similar here

[frail bloom]

All of the sudden mancubi are scary

[stoic sleet]

But i fucking hate the first 3 levels

Got decently far into cb once and died to manc as usual

[frail bloom]

Yeah your mobility options and upgrades are gimped but it's manageable

[stoic sleet]

Cynic the original is rlly goated tho

[frail bloom]

Yeah I can't wait for his vids on tda

[stoic sleet]

I use his un guide to know what to but

Buy*

[frail bloom]

Gonna have so much doom content to watch, binge and play for 3 yrs

[stoic sleet]

honestly i feel like tda will be really easy even on nightmare without sliders used

[frail bloom]

Don't let it's slow pace fool you, it introduces tyrants in the 5th level outta it's 22 levels while eternal introduces the tyrant in the 8th or 9th level in eternal outta 13 levels

[stoic sleet]

I love and hate the tyrant tbh

[frail bloom]

In my opinion, tda may have gradual difficulty while eternal and 2016 had difficulty spikes

So it makes the experience better paced

[stoic sleet]

The guns in tda are gonna take a while to get used to ngl

Theyre very different

And using shield instead of my hot sexy meathook

[frail bloom]

It's easy to pick up according to some people who played it so it may not be a problem

[barren iron]

I love how there's those big tall horned demons and the advice the devs gave was "get in close and beat the fuck out of em" lmao

[stoic sleet]

Im gonna miss the meathook no matter how badass a chainsaw shield is

[frail bloom]

As you should

[frail bloom]

Whaddya mean miss just play eternal

Maybe it's just me but I don't understand when people say they miss smt cuz the thing that has it still exists

[stoic sleet]

Im bad at switching between games, im on a month time limit to beat un and beforei forget eternal exists

[frail bloom]

You'll get used to it, and before you know it, we'll find some nutty Shield tech

[stoic sleet]

And im not at my expected skill level for 160 hours tbh

[frail bloom]

Super ultra shield bash bounce speed 300%

[stoic sleet]

I hope they add a bfg chaingun with infinite ammo tho

[frail bloom]

How intuitive

[stoic sleet]

And it also makes u invincible

[frail bloom]

The true experience

[stoic sleet]

And my crush finds my bfg chaingun so badass she goes out with me

[frail bloom]

Game 0/10 without it that's muh cold take

[stoic sleet]

Average game journalist review

[silent surge]

mmmm…

may take some getting used to

[stoic sleet]

Are you THE allstin?

[frail bloom]

Nah it's Ballstin

[silent surge]

for over 30 years i have held this title

(also creators are verified with the little badge beside their name so it’s me!)

[plain iron]

Wait until you learn that hoard mode gaming is here

[silent surge]

at horde hello

[stoic sleet]

Oh my god no way

Wheres under the mayo

[silent surge]

under… mayonnaise…

[plain iron]

Ew no

[stoic sleet]

He seems to have no consideration for the survival of console players

[silent surge]

i had to!

[plain iron]

He's under the mayo jar yknow

Like a bug

[stoic sleet]

“I personally hope they add a new demon called “evil console murder demon” that cant be killed by console players and 1 hits all console players”

[frail bloom]

Mayo gonna give the game 11/10 now that he got the helmet

[silent surge]

it’s a big helmet

[stoic sleet]

Nah if the game isnt borderline sadistic hes gonna bomb hugos house

[hollow sandal]

Too late, he said he wasn't excited

Xd

[silent surge]

i watched that video

[frail bloom]

Nah I know but the helmet vid was after

[plain iron]

I bought the helmet.... so happy. .

[hollow sandal]

True

[stoic sleet]

Allstin do you think a bfg chaingun with infinite ammo is good for the game?

[plain iron]

Too bad it's limited to may for international orders

[frail bloom]

What kinda question is this of course!

[stoic sleet]

I think allstin left 😦

[hollow sandal]

Noooo 😭

[stoic sleet]

Second best doomtuber

[silent surge]

yea he did

[hollow sandal]

Lol

[stoic sleet]

Yay

[frail bloom]

[silent surge]

third*

or 4th

[stoic sleet]

Who’s above you other than cynic?

[silent surge]

hugo martin

if he made vids

[frail bloom]

His account only has a call of duty vid

[silent surge]

ya i think that’s really him

he got on stream chats during eternal’s prime

[frail bloom]

Check tyler mckvicker's new vid hugo commented

[stoic sleet]

May needs to come faster

I need that finishing move ost

[frail bloom]

It's just some really old vid

[stoic sleet]

Which ultra nightmare campaign would you say is hardest?

[frail bloom]

2016

It's wildly unpredictable

[stoic sleet]

I heard eternal was miles harder

Ive only played eternal, and doom 1 and 2 on computer in fortress

[grim cloud]

2016 way harder

[frail bloom]

If you understood the controls, it is much easier and gives you more options for traversal

[hollow sandal]

2016

Even tho it's slower

[stoic sleet]

In the first level of tda there better be 15 davoths

[silent surge]

just don’t fall

[frail bloom]

Plus the whole "damage doesn't kill you instantly thing" unlike 2016 where it wants you dead

[silent surge]

trip over a rock and lose your UN life

[stoic sleet]

Yeah i heard falling is like instadeath

[frail bloom]

Man you should be a dev

[stoic sleet]

And you have to watch the introduction to his fight 15 times each time he killss you

[frail bloom]

I fall all the time

Cuz I'm too careless

[frail bloom]

Yo put purple goo infinite cutscenes in the sky for all the sneaky speedrunners

[silent surge]

fun fact
ultra nightmare 100% speedrun in the last level has a jump that if you fail it you die and lose the run

[stoic sleet]

You bring violence and war to thwart the dark realm, but conflict was born in hell, it is, inevitable, a fire that fuels creation and gives purpose where there is none

[silent surge]

i saw that video!

[frail bloom]

Ye the world spear one

[stoic sleet]

Was is the reaction one?

[scenic lichen]

In terms of early game 2016, but late game eternal

[stoic sleet]

I always thought after doom hunter base on un the only really hard point is sentinel prime

Fuck the gladiator on nightmare

[silent surge]

died to the khan on my 2nd attempt, should’ve taken a break before

[frail bloom]

I jsut fought him today and he wasn't bad

His hitbox is wack tho

[stoic sleet]

I find khan really easy

[silent surge]

gladiator seems dark agey now

[stoic sleet]

Lock on and micro missiles shred her

And u have the drones

[frail bloom]

A classic baron is in the cards

(Please ID I beg you)

[grim cloud]

i hope we get classic hellknights, becaues yes

[stoic sleet]

There should be 50 icon of sins in the first dark ages level

[vapid lodge]

you know whats really interesting, they mentioned the shield in 2016 testaments

Someone needs to ask Hugo post launch if they thought about it since then

[grim cloud]

baalgars, spider masterminds, classic hell knights, gimme gimme

[frail bloom]

Yup they've been semi-planning for this game for 8 yrs based on a new interview

[vapid lodge]

ah what the hell

[stoic sleet]

50 possesed spectre icon of sins and 100 possesed samur maykrs

[frail bloom]

I want CLASSIC BARONS

[vapid lodge]

thats crazy

[grim cloud]

and they better bleed green

right?

[frail bloom]

Hell yes

Too bad the gladiator said nah

[stoic sleet]

There should be a setting that makes all gore in doom white

[frail bloom]

GET OUT

[grim cloud]

i made a mini mod that changed that. Couldn't get everything to change green becasuse of hard codes

[stoic sleet]

And a 10 minute sex scene between king novik and doomslayer

[frail bloom]

I am at a loss for words

[vapid lodge]

https://tenor.com/view/bruh-gif-17563483835665589874

[stoic sleet]

Jokes aside i hope they dont make cutscenes too long

[frail bloom]

You said jokes aside

[stoic sleet]

I like the cutscenes in eternal

[frail bloom]

If it fleshes out the story and is cool I want longer ones

And you can skip if ya don't want it

[vapid lodge]

well if its gonna be not too long then the sex scenes that you've mentioned should make sense right?

[frail bloom]

Win win

[vapid lodge]

[stoic sleet]

Thats gameplay like god of war 3

[vapid lodge]

ah yes, the father and son bonding

[stoic sleet]

Chooseable voicelines and chooseable poses to use

[frail bloom]

So many great ideas today

[vapid lodge]

I was looking forward the voice chat on the launch day

same way it was for eternal, that was so fun

[frail bloom]

I want a hugo stream

[vapid lodge]

he will

[stoic sleet]

I hope they add online in an update

[vapid lodge]

10000000%

[stoic sleet]

Battlemode is fun asf

[vapid lodge]

worse case invasion

[frail bloom]

Eehh they have a dlc to make after

[vapid lodge]

atlan fights lol

[frail bloom]

Depends

[stoic sleet]

The dragon sections tbh look boring

[frail bloom]

Ye according to horde they were not as great as the other parts of the game

[stoic sleet]

I saw that video

[frail bloom]

But the team is apparently working on it whatever that means

[silent surge]

which one?

[vapid lodge]

i dont know why they felt the need to add the dragon, the mechs I understand

[frail bloom]

The vids in a different language lemme find it

[silent surge]

may have seen

[stoic sleet]

I think they added dragons to add to the wat effect theyre going for

[silent surge]

now that you mention maybe

[stoic sleet]

War*

[sterile sage]

Allstin

[stoic sleet]

I hope in un theres a way to remove dragon sectionss

[barren iron]

You can't bat 1.000 when you're trying to implement new ideas to keep a game fresh 🤷

[frail bloom]

https://youtu.be/nZjb6lvHCOs?feature=shared

[frail bloom]

Here it is

At 4:20 he mentions the 8 yrs thing

[vapid lodge]

im listening to the whole thing anyway lol

if its Hugo, I am all ears

[frail bloom]

Hugolo martini

[vapid lodge]

He just said Microsoft just empowered them to make the game

[frail bloom]

Whatever that means

[vapid lodge]

Which is what I lowkey thought about it, the game is really different

budget

[frail bloom]

At least they hsve the budget and resources

[vapid lodge]

yep

[frail bloom]

We're gonna feast

[stoic sleet]

Why do ppl on ever talk on general

[frail bloom]

Some people have more going on in their lives than just doom

[plain iron]

Bcs we don't need to talk abt doom 24/7

[vapid lodge]

keeping the chat streamlined?

[stoic sleet]

But doom is my life

[barren iron]

everytime I go into general, it's some weird shit

[vapid lodge]

this

[stoic sleet]

Doom is eternal to me

[vapid lodge]

doom is my life too but you can't make it like this for the rest of us

[frail bloom]

Ya don't have to speak in general but it's community and all of that

[stoic sleet]

My entire life rn is school doom and sleep

[vapid lodge]

well I understand your enthusiasm for the game, however get your priorities straight

[stoic sleet]

But i need my un completion

[vapid lodge]

do it then 🙂

[lapis gorge]

this is the only big server that doesnt have nonstop messages every second and only a 5 second slowdown vs like 2 minutes

[stoic sleet]

And i wont even get sentinel podium bcs argentas paladi is bugged

[frail bloom]

I have the un banner and gold skin even tho I never finished the campaign on un thank you ID

[stoic sleet]

But u didnt earn it

[frail bloom]

I know it's weird

I don't use them anyways

[stoic sleet]

So u never felt like shit and be high asf on dopamine at the same time

[frail bloom]

I've tried un but only went up to cultist base

My decision to not have quick swap killed me

[stoic sleet]

Imo prioritise faster dash and quickswao

[frail bloom]

It's not that it's actually too difficult but my nerves don't allow me to think straight

[stoic sleet]

I use blood fuel and air control so i dont find glory kill dash that good yet

Same, i beat cultist basement first try on a practice run bcs i wasnt scared

[frail bloom]

Ye exactly it's a weird thing where if you're playing casually it's fun but on UN it's a nightmare no pun intended

[stoic sleet]

Most final sin deaths are probably from nerves

I fucking hate exultia and hell on earth on nightmare the rest are bearable

[final dune]

You can skip em

[silent surge]

yes you can

[final dune]

So question

Is the dlc gonna be a continuation of the story like doom eternal

[fleet spruce]

Most likely

[vapid lodge]

prequel to 2016, after 64

ah wait, my bad....

[fleet spruce]

we don't have a concrete information about DLCs just yet

[vapid lodge]

would be amazing if its another prequel

[fleet spruce]

or any information actually, aside from the fact that one DLC is certainly coming

[exotic slate]

You know what else is coming

[storm drum]

I'm torn between buying standard or premium version. The only thing worth in premium version is DLC, and I could probably buy that later. $100 is too expensive for a game.

[woven jolt]

agreed. if you buy the premium, it's $30 more, and the dlc when it comes out will probably cost that. so imo it's not worth it unless you love skins and what not

dlc might even cost $20

[silent surge]

it’ll be standalone from dark ages

[plain iron]

Wait really?

[final dune]

So then what does that entail?

[woven jolt]

how do you know

[silent surge]

hugo says it here

[uneven dragon]

i wonder if the dlc will end with the sarcophagus

[woven jolt]

Hugo said the game won't end like that, it'll prevent any future dark ages games

[silent surge]

they wanna leave room for more games too i’m sure

[uneven dragon]

this is how Doom ZERO can still fit in.......

[uneven dragon]

that's fair

[silent surge]

writes them into a corner

[plain iron]

Like TAG all over again

[uneven dragon]

i suppose tho if there was a timeskip between tda and dlc they'd still have room

but that makes sense

[next lynx]

1 MORE MONTH OF THE SEMESTER THEN ITS WORK, TRAIN, THEN DARK AGES ALL NIGHT

[dreamy kiln]

Yes sir, I got 30 days left

[fleet spruce]

Unfortunately, probably gonna be at work

will have to avoid this channel and YouTube to avoid spoilers

[wheat sigil]

i got 1 entire month of school before tda releases💔

[scenic lichen]

it gonna be my graduation gift fr

[frail bloom]

YES, WITCH I'M COMIN'

[uneven dragon]

is the new arachnotron essentially the mindweaver from LoR

[fleet spruce]

pretty much

a chaingun bastard

[formal root]

huh

so the new arachnotron is a mindweaver in TDA

and in eternal it goes back to being an arachnotron?

[chilly wagon]

I need a cryopod set to open may 13

[uneven dragon]

i guess idk maybe they just didn't like the minigun

i like how Legacy of Rust has two modern enemies coexisting with their classic equivalents now tho in the form of the Tyrant and the Mindweaver

[uneven dragon]

wait im seeing people saying on doomworld that the tda arachnotrons are actually called mindweavers is this true...??

[formal root]

wait what?

I tought that the arachnotrons from LoR were called mindweavers

[uneven dragon]

yeah they are

well a variant of the arachnotrons with chainguns are called that

but i heard on doomworld that apparently the arachnotrons in TDA are also called mindweavers?

[formal root]

huh

oh yeah, Idk if I mentioned this

the spider and lizard demons are called “vagary” and “komodo”

[uneven dragon]

Yeah super hyped about the Vagary

Since it’s the first Doom 3 enemy since generic Zombies to make a return

[formal root]

i’m still very compelled to see like

whats up with the cosmic barons

something tells me they are gonna look eldritch

or lovecraftian

[uneven dragon]

oh yea the name alone is rly cool

[feral bane]

Too bad they look nothing alike

Not a bad design on TDA’s part though

Like it quite a bit

[plain iron]

iirc vagaries are birdesque, at least in Dante's divine comedy

Interesting they made em into spiders

[feral bane]

Didn’t know vagaries were in Inferno

Haven’t made it to that part yet

[plain iron]

WAIT NO IT WAS HARPIES

They look similar enough 😭

[feral bane]

I am familiar with the harpies lol

[plain iron]

https://tenor.com/view/kirby-fall-gif-19737042

[feral bane]

Hey it happens, I’ve made much worse mistakes lol.

My memory is awful for a young person.

[plain iron]

same lmfao

Only thing I can remember is random doom lore

[graceful lion]

my memory is only good for the useless shit

things that wont be a use to me in life

[merry lion]

Maggots next pls

[uneven dragon]

I would like to see how a Maggot would look in the modern artstyles but I feel mechanically it isn’t distinct enough to justify bringing back yk

We already have a lot of Imp-shape jump at you enemies

[merry lion]

True enough

I’m happy we got the nightmare imp back

[uneven dragon]

They could always give it a new mechanic tho and reuse the design

Like how Hell Knights in the modern games work way different to 1-3

[uneven dragon]

TRUEEEE I’m so happy about that

[merry lion]

I always felt like the screaming ceiling guy that summons them should’ve been a game mechanic instead of a one time cutscene, that could work

Doom 64 my beloved, always love seeing it getting respect

[uneven dragon]

Trueee

I’d love for Wraiths to return but unfortunately the modern games kinda made another really important species “Wraiths” and the Prowlers kinda have their niche already

Wraiths being the name of 2 demon species (one being super important) and Ghoul being used for 2 demons is super annoying to me

(Especially since Legacy of Rust’s ghouls should’ve been called Forgotten Ones like Doom 3 cause it would’ve been the same joke about them being rejected lost soul designs!!!!)

[solemn wyvern]

Can we haz the Vassago and the Cherub?

[feral bane]

Vassago?

[merry lion]

Bruisers would be cool but good luck getting the tv screen to work in a medieval setting

[feral bane]

They could just redesign them to fit the artstyle better

I don’t know if Bruisers would really have a place in TDA’s enemy roster tho

[uneven dragon]

Vassagos would be fucking awesome to see again

Unfortunately their entire pocket of hell kinda got nuked so…

[merry lion]

Somehow, the vassago returned

[uneven dragon]

Vassagos fit so perfectly with TDA though it’s so criminal they’re not returning

Hopefully a DLC adds them but I doubt it :(

[plain iron]

Aren't they from LoR?

[feral bane]

Yeah

[solemn wyvern]

So were the mind weavers

[plain iron]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1278629590797123602/1361318373774069830/image0.webp?ex=67fe5208&is=67fd0088&hm=c79093bf2f44dd74df37a8a17dee9925756f88abc83e57afb7fdc490490d8d5a&

These goobers look like the new tyrant/cyberdemon

[merry lion]

They’re definitely not returning?

[plain iron]

Except not black

[graceful lion]

chargrilled tda tyrant

[plain iron]

Burnt chicken nugget 😔

[graceful lion]

thats just my cat fr

Damn, it does

[plain iron]

:3

[feral bane]

Neat to see more winged demons

[fleet spruce]

I'm really excited about going places in TDA

[merry lion]

praying the worlds beyond is the quake dimension

[fleet spruce]

Eternal had tons of variety, and seeing that tda gonna have 22 levels I'm expecting more of that

[feral bane]

The levels in TDA seem like they’re larger too

It’s a beautiful looking game so I’ll be exploring every nook and cranny

[fleet spruce]

Won't be surprised tbh, especially with how much more lovecraftian doom has been getting these years

[feral bane]

Shame that I won’t be able to play it at the highest settings though

[merry lion]

Same

[fleet spruce]

Same

[merry lion]

I’m a 4060 peasant

[uneven dragon]

Yea but I’d love to see them return in a dlc for The Dark Ages

[feral bane]

4060ti is only enough for 1080p medium-high settings

Iirc

[merry lion]

That’s still pretty decent

[feral bane]

It’s good

[uneven dragon]

Ehh we’ve seen like all the enemies or something by now

[plain iron]

Ehh not all

[feral bane]

Game’s still gonna look great

[merry lion]

It’ll look better than Eternal

[feral bane]

Not complaining, just wish I could experience it at ultra

[fleet spruce]

I'm 720p low moment (handheld gaming)

[uneven dragon]

Which seem to have returned in spirit given the new Arachnotron design

[dreamy vine]

Opinion on the Cacodemon?

[feral bane]

I’m waiting to see if I’ll warm up to it or not

[fleet spruce]

Reminds me a lot of the scrapped Doom 4 caco design

[dreamy vine]

Same, I know he looks nothing like a meatball but I love how grotesque it is

[feral bane]

It looks like the doom 3 caco’s demented cousin

[merry lion]

Imagine if they brought back the doom 64 design for the pain elemental

[fleet spruce]

The horror

[feral bane]

Wouldn’t be a bad call tbh

[fleet spruce]

Don't you love it when it spawns twice the lost souls, which are also more aggressive

immediately disintegrate them with unmaker

[merry lion]

They’ll give another generation trauma 😂

[plain iron]

Dawg im gonna be real I think this generation already has enough

[barren iron]

I love the new cacodemon, really fits in the with lovecraftian gothic vibe the game is going for

[solemn wyvern]

The fuck is up with the Octobrain design of the Cacademon?

[barren iron]

These likely aren't actual cacodemons, but a proto-version of the cacodemon, before the heavy experimentation

[solemn wyvern]

Manly

[barren iron]

I like it a lot

[merry lion]

They got sick of dying to Duke Nukem

[solemn wyvern]

Lol

[merry lion]

Thought they’d try their luck with doomguy lol

[solemn wyvern]

They’re fucked

So when are these demons getting added to classic doom

[barren iron]

bruh we're 31 days away

[uneven dragon]

Legacy of Rust 2

[merry lion]

Master Levels 2

[uneven dragon]

Mindweaver and Tyrant exist soon LoR 2 will drop with Vagary and the hellknight in armour

[merry lion]

I wanna see the big pinky beast thing in classic doom

[solemn wyvern]

Same

[barren iron]

that's another one of my fav designs. I Love the Doom eternal pinkies because I want to own one lmao, but I love how the new designs look

[merry lion]

Reminds me of the serious sam werebull

[solemn wyvern]

Ye

[jolly flicker]

I'm really excited to hear this game's full OST

[final dune]

The one they showed in the siege level goes hard as hell

[graceful lion]

i keep forgetting kaiser_will got hired by idsoftware to work on TDA

[winter idol]

A few doom fans got hired

[jolly flicker]

Frr, I'm not sure if it's one guy composing the OST or a team but, I actually talked to the guy who composed the first trailers music. And he's really cool

[plain iron]

Awh balls I wish I was/j

[final dune]

Yeah I think finishing move inc is a couple guys

[plain iron]

I can't do anything but draw, ima leave that to Emerson Tung

[merry lion]

Soundtrack reminds me of Painkiller a bit

[jolly flicker]

I didn't get anything like in detail on the OST from him, but I have an extremely rough idea on what the whole OST will sound like

Basically just, argent metal, with less, argent. Is the simplest, fastest way I could put it. It's definitely gonna be more raw, and less compressed than eternal or 2016's soundtracks

Which, imo definitely works for the dark ages

https://youtu.be/1WbcyQVUS04?si=5bQGnAE4jTRQzz1z though if it were to follow more towards the over compressed feel of eternals soundtrack this is probably what I think it'd sound like (not sure if the link will work)

Day 81 of 112

[spare panther]

New level got revealed on twitter it looks awesome

[merry lion]

The Abyssal Keep

[harsh egret]

Doubt its a level, we can see the keep in the dev direct where they show the 3 mancubus far in the background

unless a part 1 and 2 thing

[spare panther]

maybe part 1 is going to the keep and part 2 is the keep

[harsh egret]

eh i mean maybe but the keep itself doesnt look like a 1 hr level to me

or maybe its bigger than i realize

[autumn dawn]

what did it look like

i don't wanna waste precious minutes looking for it on twitter

[merry lion]

A bit like nekravol

I tried to post the link but it got deleted

[spare panther]

big hell building that looks like nekravol it even has the big laser on the top

[harsh egret]

#screenshots

[autumn dawn]

oh that

isn't that just the soul spire?

[harsh egret]

idk but it looks waaay bigger

[devout cove]

So they are just making nekravol 2.0?

[silent surge]

4
or 2ish

[harsh egret]

#screenshots sick ass concept art

[graceful lion]

its 4

[silent surge]

it was a link to finishing move’s site

yea there’s 4 people on the bio, their site says duo but may need updated

games they worked on for music ^

[fair egret]

1 month tomorrow

[merry lion]

Callisto protocol 💀

The halo anniversary tracks are peak

[silent surge]

DOOM: The Dark Ages
Microsoft Flight Sim 2024
Other Microsoft Flight Sim
Google painting thing

[final dune]

They've been revealing so much I hope we get a trailer soon

[harsh egret]

maybe tomorrow

one month away from general access

[final dune]

Yeah

Maybe we'll get some more footage of prince asscrack

[grim cloud]

need that trailer, we one month from release now

[winter idol]

nekravol 2, electric boogaloo

[grim cloud]

i hope there are more tilesets for hell

[grim cloud]

That is just one variant of the Bruiser. That demon name has been used for larger hell nobles. It has been also suggested that all barons and hell kights are of the bruiser species

[river fern]

Looks like a fun city to destroy

[winter idol]

are we going to blow up another tower, id

[grim cloud]

10 am pst is the time when something from betheseda marketing drops, nothing today.

Maybe trailer #2 tommorrow

Since that is the official 1 month until TDA mark

[slender onyx]

abyssal keep looks awesome, can't wait to destroy it

[weary current]

in total, it's four guys who are all actually pretty experienced with metal

[hollow sandal]

My life would be better if this game was out now 😭

[weary current]

nekravol before the fall, i'm guessing??? or is this a different tower

[winter idol]

different tower

[weary current]

oh ok

[grim cloud]

there are many towers in the distance on the exultia level

[mystic barn]

I’m just hoping this game concludes with Doomguy and a group of Night Sentinels discovering the existence of Nekravol, thus concluding the conspiracy arc

[flat pulsar]

Ahzrak looks like he will get beat up or die halfway through, getting replaced by someone badder

[grim cloud]

if i had to guess, Ahzrak will be no more than a cutscene getting killed (like the blood priests in Eternal) or he has a dragon and you have a dragon on dragon fight

[silent surge]

hugo has said in the art of slaying video about azhrak “meet them, fight them, grow to hate them”

[harsh egret]

yh they showed 2 diff cutscenes with him in 2 diff places in the dev direct

[grim cloud]

There is also the Hell Priest and hte Witch

Hell Priest might be the same species as those Grunt characters?

Witch is probably the leader of those tenticle hairs "acolyte" beings.

Will they be push overs via cutscene, OR a actual boss fight

[solemn wyvern]

The bitch?

Who?

[grim cloud]

some leaked video got out showing a cloaked figure - prob a character form the purple realm

[solemn wyvern]

Barefoot waifu?

[merry lion]

go away miyazaki

[solemn wyvern]

No

[merry lion]

no barefoot firekeeper for you

[iron lance]

Does anyone know if dark ages will have keyboard and mouse support on consoles? I would assume no because doom 2016 and eternal doesn't but figured I'd ask.

[slender onyx]

imagine there's a flashback level in TDA where you play as doomguy in the classic games before arriving to argent d'nur, and with him wearing the doom 64 armor

[merry lion]

if the doom 64 armor gets added im never taking it off

[grim cloud]

i certainly hope they add all the older armors. For the most part the art is done, not sure if htere are animation clipping problems that may arrise

Still need the Doom 3 Marine

[tranquil moss]

i still have an unopened box of the anki overdrive set

[frail bloom]

Imma be honest I actually thought it was nekravol concept art

For eternal

[merry lion]

I don't think they'll add it cause Doom 3 marine is a different person than Doom Slayer

dumb reason i know

[uneven dragon]

Wasn’t there Doom 3 armour in Eternal? Or nah

[uneven dragon]

They had Phobos’ armour in Eternal tho

[frail bloom]

The place def looks very gritty tho

Eternal's scope with 2016's grittiness perfect

[stoic sleet]

I hope the dark ages has a better first level

I fucking hate hell on earth

[uneven dragon]

Hell on Earth is awesome :((

[stoic sleet]

No its not

[uneven dragon]

Why :(

[stoic sleet]

Its boring and u dont have any movement upgrades

[cyan lotus]

get that attention span up🔥

[final dune]

Leaked video? Where?

[grim cloud]

its on doomworld and various other places. Prob shouldn't post leaks here

[final dune]

Can you just dm me a URL?

Can't seem to find anything

[grim cloud]

its pictures form the leaked video, video prob already taken down by now

[plain iron]

I have the actual video downloaded lol

[final dune]

Can you uhh send that to me?

[hard thistle]

You mean level 1 doesn't start you out with your entire kit? Woah that's crazy bro...

[final dune]

Mods?

Crush his skull

[torpid lynx]

46:58 https://youtu.be/tt36cr6AgQs?si=xvyBAHWYdwUJDPuV

This is where the new footage was discovered. It shows the cutscene before Khalim Pt. II

[grim cloud]

surprised that is still up. Not for long

[mystic barn]

I’ve been sharing it around since I discovered it. You’d think someone from Zenimax would’ve picked up on it by now

[grim cloud]

i posted the mars core b roll, and it was taken down in a hour

but that was years ago

[mystic barn]

Guess they’re not too upset with Khalim footage floating around then. The Heart of Argent has been known for a while (not necessarily by name, but the dragon b-roll seems to allude to it)

[final dune]

its obviously a bot

[gilded summit]

So excited for the new fun zone to be pushed into!

Can’t wait!

[mystic barn]

No way a girl would be on this server, gotta be a bot /j

[sonic turret]

Ah the Witch. I call him Cobra Commander.

[formal root]

oh hello

seems like a bot

[grim cloud]

you dont say

i already sent her money

fuck

[formal root]

[idle lark]

RAAA THE TRAILER LOOKS INSANEE

[formal root]

WHAT

ITS OUT??

TRAILER 2 IS OUT??

[hard thistle]

No

[formal root]

damn.

[hard thistle]

Decent chance we could see it like this week or next though

We're a month from launch now after all

[formal root]

true true

[merry lion]

baited

[formal root]

i’ve been baited by hellish forces

[mystic barn]

Headbutt worthy

[idle lark]

im just a lil late

its fine

[hollow sandal]

LMAO 😭 Bruh that made me laugh more then it should

I wonder if they'll make changes to some of the complaints this game is receiving

[merry lion]

What complaints were those?

[hollow sandal]

A common one is the enemy projectile colors

I've seen complaints on certain enemies not being responsive

*demons

[uneven dragon]

Whats the issue with those?

[hollow sandal]

Idk 😭 I suppose they think it looks bad

[uneven dragon]

The green projectiles throw me off a little but like they’re kind of necessary for the game

[hollow sandal]

Yea they seem a little un-immersive , like for the mancubus you move toward it to parry, and same for the vagary

So yea idk, maybe it will be fun to play tho

I guess I was trying to appear neutral at first. but I would appreciate a minor change to this

[limber mauve]

kinda needed when the loop relies on parrying so much

[hollow sandal]

Facts

I wish it was a little More streamlined or "natural"? Idfk

[limber mauve]

wdym by natural

[hollow sandal]

Lmao umm

It just seems un-immersive to have to move towards a projectile you want to parry, like moving to the right for the green mancubus projectile

Then to the left for the green one of the next wave of projectiles

[limber mauve]

i feel like people will get used to it, or you could just straight up turn up projectile speed to make it more challenging instead of waiting a eon for the thing to come at you

[hollow sandal]

Yea good point, it may feel better to play. But thats how it looks to me currently

Don't get me wrong tho, I can't fucking wait for this game

[limber mauve]

nah same im counting every week

[uneven dragon]

yeah lol

[limber mauve]

i already got my preorder set in just waiting for pre-download basically

[uneven dragon]

i dont really like how the vagary's attack pattern looks but it's whatever

it looks a little goofy seeing the wall

[thorn geyser]

The pre download is available on gamepass

[uneven dragon]

but i don't really care and it'll be fun to actually fight against so whatever

[thorn geyser]

I already installed it

[limber mauve]

i got the game on steam soz

[hollow sandal]

Nice, what gpu you got?

[thorn geyser]

Ahhh I see

[light imp]

what gpu?

[limber mauve]

2060 6gb so im relying on DLSS

[hollow sandal]

Ohh shit tru

[limber mauve]

i mean i run eternal with RT at 110fps (150+ if off) so it shouldnt be thaat bad (i hope)

[hollow sandal]

Well it's better than what I got 😭

[harsh egret]

i dont wanna be the bearer of bad news but i doubt it will run great

[light imp]

minimum gpu requirement is 2060 super

so it might not look the best it can, but it will probably play well
