I'm playing on Nightmare btw

mossy hound
#

Played Eternal and safe to say it's easy. The dark ages that is

heady mica
#

Modifying it so it's easy

green estuary
#

well, it's not easy per se, but with the default parry window on nightmare it's easier than eternal/2016 on nightmare
if you turn the parry window down though, it becomes harder than eternal imo

heady mica
#

The fact you can cheese UN by setting all the sliders to benefit you is kinda cringe but eh at least it tells you whether you did a modded run or not

obsidian shard

TDA i mean

I just have auto sprint on, if I dont know where the enemy is, that's on me

heady trout
#

Yeah about that

#

150 enemies in a flat arena

green estuary
#

I lowk wish TDA had sprint slide functionality

green estuary
heady trout
#

Huh interesting

heady mica
#

I have been attacked by invisible opps and not just the nightmare stalkers

mossy hound
green estuary
#

nightmare imps can honestly go fuck themselves kekw

heady mica
#

They giving stealth boys to the mancubus now

heady trout
#

This game clicks with me until I die due to the enemy spam, especially in bigger, flatter arenas

Anger translates fairly well into Doom

Im not a big fan of the whole "treat encounter as puzzle", that's why I don't really fw the Master levels in Eternal bc in the end it's just dying a lot and figuring out how to deal with each arena, when I like the idea of being surprised and having to quickly figure out a way to survive y'know, that's why randomizer is fun

green estuary
# heady trout Die and learn 💔

not even that
if you just look at what's going on around you, it should feel pretty natural to see which enemies are high priority
arachnotron/mortar mancubus next to some explosive barrels? get them out of the way first
etc

heady trout
#

Chill

green estuary
#

eternal ML fights aren't really puzzles imo
they just throw a bunch of shit at you to test how good your movement/dps is

mossy hound
#

Doom Eternal: Fly and dash

TDA: A fucking tank

heady trout
obsidian shard
#

Thats also why TDA is my favourite, you Feel like a Tank!

heady trout
#

And don't get me wrong I'm relatively new at this game

heady trout
obsidian shard
#

imo

heady trout
#

Well I feel like a tank in the less massive arenas admittedly, when there's not the whole 60 ai limit shooting at me

green estuary
obsidian shard
#

If its too much, Just change the difficulty a bit

heady trout
#

I think Seige is overwhelming to me bc of just how many enemies there are

mossy hound
obsidian shard
heady trout
#

Like when y'all say tank what do you even mean, bc tanks stand very still and shoot 🤓

#

I'm sorry if coming off as aggressive/confrontational but I'm lost

green estuary
#

it'll click dw

heady trout
#

:(

green estuary
#

in big battlefields I tend to just work my way from the outside in

FNAF is mostly lore tbh

Fred fast bear

heady mica
#

The gameplay is just look both ways before crossing the street & stranger danger

green estuary

#

CHAINSHOT

heady mica
heady trout
heady mica
#

It isnt a lore thing it's just that the game came out a few years ago so they didn't think to make it like that at the time

heady mica
#

I'm sure the next game is gonna have tanky feels too

green estuary
# obsidian shard CHAINSHOT

the more I play tda the less I enjoy using the chainshot tbh
doesn't really fit with how aggressive I like to play

mossy hound
heady trout
#

Doom feel into the Sonic paradox of "okay so what fans do we please now" bc there's more than one gameplay foundation, you have the Eternal and Dark Ages one and maybe 2016, so what do you pick? Which fans do you please?

heady mica
#

It fits really well into aggressive playthroughs if you use it to mog armored targets

obsidian shard
heady mica
#

Also why wouldnt you wanna hit someone in the head with a bowling ball

#

Such a great concept

green estuary
warm ibex

I want it to play a strike sound effect every time i kill an enemy with it

Also why was the prince aura farming in the Seige cutscene who does he think he is, chill bro nobody taking a flick

warm ibex
obsidian shard
#

He gotta impress The Huzz (The Witch)

heady mica
#

Kreed got NO aura except for his fight music

mossy hound
# heady trout Gameplay is intrinsically tied to *playing* the *game* (clues in the name), each...

Again, I know you have to experience the thing so you'd be able to review it and know how it feels. But that doesn't stop me from giving my two cents or rather my opinion on how the game plays based on videos from it. There's a reason these videos are there to begin with and it's for you to see the gameplay from another person so you'd get an idea on how the game plays. I know I don't have the full grasp of it because I obviously didn't play it but I have the general idea of it

obsidian shard
heady mica
#

FM Needs to keep cooking

obsidian shard
#

Cant wait to see them come back for DLC (YEs they are doing the DLC)

heady trout
#

Kreed is too busy eating to worry about the plot

obsidian shard
#

Mancubus is the Better fatass

warm ibex
heady trout
#

Fat....

heady mica
#

Kreed has bugs under his skin, he needs to get them out

mossy hound
obsidian shard
heady trout
#

Mancubus vs Kreed who wins a hot dog eating contest

grim cloud
#

So did i hear something about a HUB for DLC?

green estuary
green estuary
obsidian shard
warm ibex
mossy hound
grim cloud
#

does having a hub imply more levels than expected?

heady mica
#

He's a fun fight but I gotta say he has no aura cuz he's a chicken and a coward

green estuary
heady mica
#

I am legally obligated to hate on him

heady trout
#

In games like Doom you need characters like Kreed to contrast with the more noble characters

grim cloud
#

someone asked for 12 levels in a DLC, maybe id took that seroiusly ...

heady trout
obsidian shard
#

In a nutshell

grim cloud
#

it was confirmed, making content for TDA is faster, so there is that. thanks to ray tracing

solid nacelle
#

22 more levels 🔥🔥🔥

grim cloud
#

D!Zone had 500 levels, so come one id

green estuary
heady trout
#

Why doesn't Kreed eat the Slayer isn't he fat

green estuary
warm ibex
# grim cloud does having a hub imply more levels than expected?

I think it implies a different mission/progression structure than expected. Hugo mentioned that the HUB serves a purpose, so I imagine we'll be returning there between levels to unlock upgrades similar to Eternal.

This is just a personal theory, but perhaps it could mean the DLC will have a more fluid mission structure where you can use the Kreed's ship to navigate to a specific region of Hell and tackle missions in whatever order you please

grim cloud
#

Mega Man mission choices!

solid nacelle
#

Now that's interesting

green estuary
grim cloud
#

so if that is true, we must fight chill penguin demon lord first. got to get Dash

green estuary
#

and then as we complete the levels you can see the activity decreasing MaledictPog

harsh egret
mossy hound

#

Guys, we gotta take everything hugo says with a kilogram of salt, remember when he said the dark lord was gonna be the greatest boss they have ever made?

mossy hound
topaz oasis
#

Well look how that turned out kekw

harsh egret
heady mica
#

He's the old one not the hungry one

green estuary
mossy hound
topaz oasis
#

The new hub in the DLC is probably gonna be just a re-skin of the doom fortress

heady mica
#

Yea but Kreed didn't even try

warm ibex
mossy hound
grim cloud
#

new demons, i hope we get that comic mancubus as a new super heavy

#

and the Hell Barons

green estuary
#

if they don't include an archie then it'd be a huge missed opportunity

harsh egret
#

if they already released concept art for demons for the base game i doubt they r gonna make those as dlc demons

heady trout
#

Super mancubus, a massive fatso that's very fat, he can't even shoot or move, he's just kinda there being fat

heady mica
#

If we get another doom game closer to the eternal timeframe I hope the Intern comes back

green estuary
#

but yeah barons of hell in the TDA style would be so frickin sick

heady trout
#

An archville in Dark Ages sounds like cbt

grim cloud
mossy hound
heady mica
#

Yea

green estuary
heady trout
grim cloud
#

although i think i also read the summoner is also related to the imp too

green estuary
#

I actually don't know what you mean by cbt in this context lmao

harsh egret
#

mini archvile

#

baby archvile

mossy hound
heady mica
#

He was the one guy who didn't fear the slayer and that was peak

grim cloud
#

yah i think the classic doom verion of the mini arcvhile is called a hellion

heady trout
#

In Eternal you kinda just memorize the spawn point and finish things early

green estuary
heady trout
green estuary
# heady trout NOOO PLEASE NOOO

no no think about it, you could use it strategically
you could block the attack with your shield, but it'd take heavy damage, and you'd get a big height boost

mossy hound
green estuary
#

archvile jumping in tda would be so unbelievably peak

harsh egret
#

ye sorry but no fat cosmic mancubus shopping cart

warm ibex
mossy hound
#

It's just the fancy way of saying "We've scrapped this concept"

green estuary
solid nacelle
green estuary
#

I feel like there was but I can't find it

harsh egret
#

most if not all those concepts were done early on, others that they might use for dlc they arent gonna show

mossy hound
green estuary
#

true
but the cosmic baron might be the coolest demon in any modern doom game

grim cloud
green estuary
#

bruh imagine they had flames coming off of them
holy frame drops batman, but how cool would that be

mossy hound
grim cloud
#

but ill take all of them. Give me a hell knight variant as well

harsh egret
#

i wonder what the biggest things id tech 9 is gonna improve

#

i think a big thing would be vfx

mossy hound
green estuary
#

well probably didn't fit with whatever they wanted to do with the game
although the way they introduced the cosmic baron was really sick
I was thinking that they just weren't going to include a really big aggressive melee bruiser in the game but then he just appears in the city of ry'uul and holy crap

harsh egret
#

they will always have like 10-20 concepts for one demon and only go on with one and i swear the human mind has something with appreciating the final design less no matter which one it would be cuz in game it doesnt always translate one to one with how it is in the concepts

warm ibex
harsh egret
#

like i look at every revenant concept and think holy shit imagine if we had that instead
but i had the same level of excitement when i saw the tda revenant for the first time too lol

warm ibex
#

yeah lol

green estuary
#

the tda revenant was about as big of a home run you can possibly hit in the design department

harsh egret
gusty viper
#

oh well

heady mica
#

Reason: Giant Golden Robots are very expensive and hurt the Sentinel defense budget

cursive grotto

Novik's royal atlan is probably made of more expensive material

warm ibex

#

should we ask a mod?

warm ibex
#

I'm no tattletale lol

half marlin
#

i mean the only time he was actually insulting we called him out on that and he's only saying "when framegen for eternal....." after that lol

obsidian shard
frail bloom
#

I mean if they contribute literally only ragebait to a discussion

#

And I have seen ragebaiters banned before,

#

I don't see why they wouldn't get banned

#

Or not banned just muted or warned

#

Idk up to them

#

I don't think I'm gonna be able to see the stream this thursday

#

Busy week

warm ibex

Ye I just want my name tagged tho bc after he makes his recap there's gonna a be like 500+ messages, or y'know he can resend it

But it doesn't mean I won't watch the stream afterwards

wonder if hugo will elaborate on limbo during the stream

obsidian shard
warm ibex
#

kinda hope he doesn't ngl, I like having a new realm with practically no lore

frail bloom
#

Well if he says smt it might contradict smt else

#

He's one of the reasons misinfo gets spread around even tho he doesn't mean it

#

When it comes to lore

obsidian shard
#

very much so

#

at least he's been fairly consistant for TDA

frail bloom
#

I know 100% it's not malicious it's just that they're still trying to connect things

#

Like for example, he says the slayer went to hell cuz he killed demons

#

?????

#

So ye

#

So maybe it's best that he says nothing

warm ibex
frail bloom
#

This is a whole damn level

#

What we went though was one section

#

This looks real cool tho

#

World tree huh

frail bloom
#

I would like to see the hivemind

#

If anyone has seen what that looks like

frail bloom
#

Oh wait I'm an idiot

#

It's all part of the same thing

@unkempt dragon is there any way for you or anyone else on the mod team to add ArtStation to the verified list of websites? so we can send TDA concept art pages and not just individual images

frail bloom

#

i'd like to see more of it tbh

#

but it's unlikely cuz doomguy would have to die again lol!

#

I would've loved to see the hivemind

#

Or there can be another thing that looks like it

I wanna see all da references

it's the one benefit of pincushion over ricochet besides single target dps

that's not your question. you come in here daily and ask when 2016 and Eternal are getting frame gen

cerulean pagoda
#

and also, if you shieldsaw a demon in place, begin shooting it with shredder, recall the shield the pincushion activates

#

just another way to use it

obsidian shard

"I don't care how good pincushion is, I'm not using the Shredder"

You do realize that the previous games are from 2016 and 2020 right? They don't owe you or anybody anything bc the new game has different features.

it does

green estuary

I both love and hate the run

cerulean pagoda

it can oneshot an arachnotron at max charge

I hate the run bc of how much bugs are introduced

the nightmare imps are the bane of my existance

at max charge it instakills stalkers and staggers hell knights, so it's probably around the 10k range

frail bloom
obsidian shard
#

Thats what you get

cerulean pagoda
#

the checkpoints are just jump off this ledge

frail bloom
#

Ok that's not bad

warm ibex
cerulean pagoda
#

and get back to the arena instead of self torture by getting spawned a realm away

obsidian shard
#

Hato Cast this man to the pits of Twitter

cerulean pagoda
frail bloom
#

But what abt forsaken plains

#

Uh oh

cerulean pagoda
#

forsaken plains is even worse lol

green estuary

frail bloom
#

NOOOOOOO

half marlin
#

that one belly of the beast secret encounter checkpoint tho kekw

obsidian shard
#

I LOSE CONTROL

green estuary
warm ibex
harsh egret
#

rumor is u wont get to play it

obsidian shard
#

its in production

frail bloom
#

It grinds my being

green estuary
warm ibex
frail bloom
#

I hate playing when I spend most my time walking and sightseeing

warm ibex
#

the nightmare imps do NOT rage bait me

cerulean pagoda
#

i remember the seige part 2 checkpoint with the yellow circle ass leader, the cyberdemon, the arachnotron at the ledge of the higher box where you have to climb 3 walls and then theres the imp stalker that like 1 shots you, ive died at that part so many times i practically know the true pain of the imp stalkers nightmare ones

frail bloom
#

Nightmare imps ain't bad on max sliders I always expect them

#

I just know the spawns

harsh egret
green estuary
cerulean pagoda
#

i also kind of fell for the ragebait of the acolytes in the ressurection level

warm ibex
green estuary
cerulean pagoda
#

at the time i didnt know you can just stun em with the shield saw and lock them in place so i had to play around like a bitch to get around em

obsidian shard
frail bloom
#

Acolytes are just cosmic archviles

cerulean pagoda
#

i fell for their ragebait

frail bloom
#

Or uh cosmic summoners

obsidian shard
half marlin
#

their clone

frail bloom
#

They're very similar to summoners

obsidian shard
#

ahhh

frail bloom
#

In terms of movement and attacks

harsh egret
#

acolytes arent even that bad until theres 2 of them in an arena and no arena has 2

#

and i have 2 in my ripatorium setup for the memes

#

and i like it actually

frail bloom
#

But now I want the real deal

cerulean pagoda
#

i will tell you at the time i didnt know you can just l1 shieldsaw stun em

frail bloom
#

The bald martian

harsh egret
#

1 leader 1 normal

frail bloom
#

The tan fan

half marlin
#

randomizer sometimes spawns 2-3 acolytes and that's where fun (torture) begins

warm ibex
#

No

green estuary
#

one singular acolyte is kinda a joke, unless you've got a baron or two bullying your ass

frail bloom
#

No no I put on heaven splitter

cerulean pagoda
#

the only thing more similar to doom eternal is doom eternal

frail bloom
#

All my problems go away

green estuary
#

then you don't have the wherewithal to pay attention to the purple rain

frail bloom
#

I just shock everything

obsidian shard
frail bloom
#

Target the acolyte

cerulean pagoda
#

the shield rune with the knives is insane

cerulean pagoda
#

it like 3 taps the leaders at ressurection

obsidian shard
cerulean pagoda
#

its too op i get entertained from how much damage they deal

green estuary
harsh egret
cerulean pagoda
#

because eternals formula has already been perfected

harsh egret
#

nah but the whole setup isnt that bad tbh, relatively ok compared to what some of yall have sent here

frail bloom
cerulean pagoda
#

expanding upon it will only result in the same game again

green estuary
#

you literally cannot push eternal any further into the ADHD direction lmao

warm ibex
#

Next Doom game will be its own thing, different from the modern trilogy. No two Doom games will be similar going forward. Anyone still obsessing over Eternal 2 might want to forget about the rest of the franchise and play Eternal for the rest of their days

cerulean pagoda
#

its more impressive to make a game that even gets close to rivalling doom eternal by being completely different instead of just expanding upon it

obsidian shard
#

i would think you would do CV

warm ibex
cerulean pagoda
#

lol if you want that just go play ultrakill

harsh egret
frail bloom
#

I thought it meant voice chat

harsh egret
#

but then some ppl think its "hato voicechat"

#

LMAO

frail bloom
#

My dum ahh

obsidian shard
harsh egret
#

should prob change it

obsidian shard
#

Nah keep it

harsh egret
#

even i dont like it

obsidian shard
#

do what you think is best!

warm ibex
#

at least your name isn't horde mode gaming 😭

obsidian shard
harsh egret
#

horde mode gaming is a legendary name

obsidian shard
#

Exaactly

half marlin
#

right??

obsidian shard
#

At least its not an Autogenerated Xbox Username

#

...

harsh egret
#

hell even my username Hato i have no clue where it came from, just sounded cool in my head at one point i was like eh fak it

obsidian shard
half marlin
#

at least it's not a writing on a dog's hat

harsh egret
#

turns out theres some DJ content creator that is named Hato

obsidian shard
#

I choose what i wanted in my name and Xbox Combined them with their name Generator thing

obsidian shard

HatoJaycool

harsh egret
#

some guy has taken Hato with 10 underscores

#

but specifically 9 is available

obsidian shard
#

what about 11

harsh egret
#

must be less than 15 characters Archie

#

nah but im just trolling, lets see..

obsidian shard
#

Your think of something peak

harsh egret
#

all i can come up with is absolute cringe

harsh egret
#

lmao

hearty edge
#

cuz the dark ages is less optimized, requires ray tracing, is in a newer engine, has way more textures and poligon count, uhh

frail bloom
#

Time to use the gif I like

hearty edge
harsh egret
#

the guy has a spreadsheet of prewritten ragebait ready to write here at any moment btw

frail bloom
#

Hato just use my gif

harsh egret
#

he just waits for like 4-5 ppl to be having a normal convo so he makes sure he gets attention

frail bloom
#

That's the answer you give

#

I just wanted an excuse to use it lol

surely if we had a mod here for the past weeks he would be adios by now

frail bloom

John

green estuary
#

just ignore

harsh egret
#

which we did

frail bloom
#

My gif is so perfect

hearty edge
#

eternal did take like 2 years for it to get the level of optimization it is at rn

frail bloom
#

More chances to use my gif

#

It'll catch on

obsidian shard
hearty edge
#

yes

obsidian shard
#

Music is baller

#

Gameplay is baller

frail bloom
#

Dlc music is the most I'm excited for

obsidian shard
#

I'm very excited for that as well

harsh egret
#

its all baller

obsidian shard
#

Hato is baller

harsh egret
#

ballee

hearty edge
#

ballee

obsidian shard
#

DUCK YOU

hearty edge
#

he's the one that balls the ballers

frail bloom
#

What's a ballee in relation to a baller

#

Nvm

obsidian shard
#

What

frail bloom
#

I got my answer

#

Y'know

#

Employee, employer

#

Trustee, truster

frail bloom
#

RAAAAAGGHH

obsidian shard
#

If y'all didn't know all ready

harsh egret
#

they shouldve tweeted about it cuz e33 is getting alot of talk about that

cerulean pagoda
#

i remember that doom eternals actual gameplay was made very late in development

harsh egret
#

k blocked atp

obsidian shard
frail bloom
#

I was laying it off cuz I'm on side DOOM

obsidian shard
#

Plus I will own the TDA OST

frail bloom
#

Buuuuttt I might have to be open

cerulean pagoda
#

if i remember, when it was showcased hugo mentioned that it was just a reskin of 2016 with a doubledash and a meathook, he realized it was too boring to play so then it got delayed to introduce the whole gameplay super late in

obsidian shard
harsh egret
#

e33 has a really good ost but i fear that most ppl talking about the ost are too biased with the game itself so they are gonna glaze anything about the game
also, idk if its just me but i cant really think of more than just a few memorable songs from that game

obsidian shard
frail bloom
#

Also most ppl just remember the ost on launch month

hearty edge
frail bloom
#

Which also doesn't help

#

It's been fixed since then

obsidian shard
#

For TDA it was the whole Mick thing

cerulean pagoda
#

weakpoints, weapon variety incentive, under the mayos attention, etc

frail bloom
obsidian shard
#

The music at launch was good just mixing was F-ed up

#

And it's sooo much better now

#

People need to come back

harsh egret
#

sure, give the other award that they are nominated for, i forgot what it was called smth about "the best video game song" or smth to the main menu theme cuz it is kinda really fkin good but overall i dont think its objectively that crazy of a soundtrack as people make it out to be

frail bloom
#

But the other reason is why they won't

cerulean pagoda
#

at the showcase, no weak points were there, ammo count was much higher and gameplay felt easier/slower

obsidian shard
harsh egret
#

yh but tda isnt nominated for that other category

obsidian shard
#

TDA has the Best Main Menu music in Trilogy (imo)

harsh egret
#

or considered should i say

frail bloom
#

Ye but the ost is sooo much better from the mixers

#

Cuz well they could put more stems in one song

harsh egret
#

yh but it doesnt matter, whats being judged is the official ost

obsidian shard
#

Also It's critics judging in the end

frail bloom
#

Fm prob knows how much we love the chunky bass segments

harsh egret
#

hellwalker is 2nd for me

frail bloom
#

Pls be in the official ost

obsidian shard
#

Critics like the OST

frail bloom
#

Also I've been putting on my earbuds wrong for months

#

I changed how I put them in and I can hear the songs much clearer now

harsh egret
#

i think objectively the doom ost has better production, no hate on the composer for e33 tho he did amazing especially being randomly picked up from fiverr or smth he is really fkin good

frail bloom
#

Maybe it's the lossless quality update on spotify

harsh egret
#

but theres so much random goofy stuff in the ost that i can only listen to in the game

frail bloom
#

Whatever it's called

frail bloom
#

They're like the potatoes of this ost

harsh egret
#

if u go to the e33 ost on spotify chances are ur gonna click on some goofy out of context song that makes no sense and seems just random

frail bloom
#

So groovy

harsh egret
#

u HAVE to play the game to even get the context of the tracks

frail bloom
#

How goofy are they

#

Wdym by goofy

harsh egret
#

just go look lol

frail bloom
#

Hm okay

#

Give me a couple songs that clash

#

So like 2

#

A really good one and one that needs context

obsidian shard
#

Under the Mayo's opinion of the OST was really funny

#

"it's metal" and said it like it's a bad thing

#

Like bro, this is DOOM

frail bloom
#

He's been pretty vocal abt not liking metal that much

cerulean pagoda
#

yeah he doesnt like metal much

frail bloom
#

Generally

obsidian shard
#

Micks work was Metal, Like hell on earth and Nekravol were METAL

#

Like I don't get it

#

Blood Swamps

frail bloom
#

Me neither

#

But whatev's

harsh egret
#

tell me which one u think is which kekw

cerulean pagoda
#

micks work wasnt nessescarily metal thers some other tracks that dont involve metal like the hell priest chanting or the exultia dean takahashi gameplay section calm music

#

yeah i cant remember the section sorry

green estuary
#

I still maintain 2016's ost was better than eternal's

brazen vortex
frail bloom
harsh egret
cerulean pagoda
#

i would call micks music argent metal and call fmi's music argent dnur metal(pun intended)

frail bloom
#

Hot take I know

harsh egret
#

some ppl got used to mick and they didnt like metal to begin with

cerulean pagoda
#

i like the music from all the games but my fav has to be eternal(im not really saying this in a way to praise it mindlessly i just seem to like eternals tracks the most)

harsh egret
#

2016 and eternal are very close imo, maybe eternal is a tiny bit higher, but then dark ages comes a decent bit over eternal

green estuary
harsh egret
#

for me at least

green estuary
#

although tag1 and tda could be swapped around either way

cerulean pagoda
#

my music tier list is
Eternal
TDA
2016
Tag1
Tag2

harsh egret
#

also how come i like the dark ages ost but i dont like 98% of metal

green estuary
#

idk

harsh egret
#

most metal sounds so repetitive and just annoying to me but dark ages is amazing

obsidian shard
#

It's how TDA is done imo

#

It's Groovy (literally)

harsh egret
#

i just find it sad to see ppl not enjoy it even if they dont enjoy metal

cerulean pagoda
#

im not a huge fan of metal but i like it in DOOM for some reason i cant exactly process how

harsh egret
#

exactly lol

obsidian shard
#

Also it's cinematic

harsh egret
#

its just pure cinema

obsidian shard
#

Also behind every Guitar is a Chello

cerulean pagoda
#

yeah ive seen the battle of the blackened tide vid or whatever

obsidian shard
cerulean pagoda
#

my favourite tracks are

Theomachy
What lies below
Steel beyond the grave
Into the void

harsh egret
#

what lies below is my nr 1

obsidian shard
#

And When the Shadows First Lengthened

#

But that's like a free space

harsh egret
#

id say mine are

what lies below
pursuit of demons
into the void
theomachy
apotheosis

#

i wanna put from the ashes there but idk where, to me its just on a "iconic" tier

#

while those others are absolute bangers

obsidian shard
obsidian shard
#

Fuck it I'm making a tierlist for each track

#

Than for the Modern Trilogy

#

"like Each Track from the Modern Trilogy"

green estuary
obsidian shard
harsh egret
#

i might do a tier list for the modern trilogy too actually

obsidian shard
#

Ok but does the music add more frames?

harsh egret
harsh egret
#

i had one for dark ages but ill update it slightly

obsidian shard
cerulean pagoda
#

My tier list is
Eternal, TDA, 2016

#

For all the games(including classics &3) its

#1: Eternal
#2: TDA
#3: Doom 2
#4: Doom 2016
#5: Doom 1
#6: Doom 64
#7: Doom 3

cerulean pagoda
#

i mean in general

green estuary
#

doom 2 that high, dang

#

I'm honestly torn on it
the enemy variety and the super shotgun add so much life into the game but the map design was just so poor

cerulean pagoda
#

i dont think the level design is nessescarily that bad but the game is very fun in general

harsh egret
#

i would put it that high if i let myself become biased from nostalgia

#

by no means not a fun game tho

#

ill have to go through 1 and 2 again, did last year but should do it again sometime soon

green estuary
#

first 2 episodes of doom 1 are great, didn't really care for E3

cerulean pagoda
#

i mean i wasnt even around since the 90s or anything, im not biased to nostalgia, personally i think doom 2 is really fun

harsh egret
#

should just do a marathon where i go through all the mainline doom games

cerulean pagoda
#

i tried it just like 1 or 2 years ago

green estuary
#

whatever E4 is called (I forget) was fun

harsh egret
cerulean pagoda
#

i was introduced to doom 2 when i was like 8 years old, my father brought me a trip to his office and introduced me to his friend who basically just introduced me to doom as a whole

green estuary
#

although doom 1 kinda suffers from the "too much shotgun" syndrome where you're just using the basic shotgun to kill literally everything

#

doom 2 definitely improves on that a lot

cerulean pagoda
#

i never asked my dad for it even though i loved the concept, i remember fantasizing killing demons from hell

harsh egret
#

i was annoying the fk out of my dad wanting to play doom every time i came home from school lmao

gilded summit
#

I can’t wait for the DLC! It’s gonna be awesome, all the mechanics that will be interesting and hopefully fun to mess around with!

cerulean pagoda
#

hpoefully there will be a new melee weapon

harsh egret
#

i feel like there might be

gilded summit
#

it should be a great sword or some kind of sword

obsidian shard
#

AXE

#

Please

solid nacelle
#

What if they brought back the demonic crucible

obsidian shard
#

new gun and melee would be peak

harsh egret
#

Imagine another weapon that is just a sword that takes away the shield but u can parry with the sword or press another button that lets u infuse the hell surge attacks into the weapon making it powerful asf, absolute cinema

obsidian shard
#

DLC and Ripatorium 2.0 at the same time (ripatorium adds the new DLC stuff Weapons, Abilities etc)

solid nacelle
#

Ok but like what if they don't make it instakill and just make it deal a lot of damage

#

But y'know what I think the axe would be fine too

#

Though if it was already cut from the game I dunno if it has a good chance of coming back

obsidian shard
warm ibex
obsidian shard
#

of the teir maker

green estuary
#

that vega core placement has me seething ngl

obsidian shard
#

Neither is better than the other

#

its about prefrences and which you like more

#

I prefer TDA

#

and as i Stated neither do anything better than the other, they just do things Differently

#

yes i do

#

I've only Preferred TDA after Update 2

#

thats my opinion and fact

harsh egret
obsidian shard
#

Smoothness of Combat, without GK just feels nicer imo, other than that, literraly nothing

harsh egret
obsidian shard
#

They're just different

harsh egret
#

i went and listened to it again rn and my brain hurt

green estuary
obsidian shard
#

I mean the Classics Never had Gk

#

2 of 7 had gk

#

Plus Chainsaw is the Shield since its called the Shield Saw

#

but i understand those points, but thats why its different

#

never removed them, just changed them

#

This is More Opinion than fact, as For Reviews its TDA and Eternal for best games

warm ibex
#

I think 2016 and TDA are my top two doom games

obsidian shard
#

my Ranking is:

  1. Eternal/TDA (cant choose)
  2. DOOM
  3. DOOM 2016
  4. DOOM 2
  5. DOOM 64
  6. DOOM3
harsh egret
#

yh horde how the fuck do u have opinions

obsidian shard
#

when TDA post content ends it'll end up being TDA by quite a bit

warm ibex
obsidian shard
#

we can slay demons together their

warm ibex
obsidian shard
#

critic wise and rating wise (based on openCritic) TDA is like the highest/best DOOM Game

solid nacelle
#

I liked not having to stare at the same chainsaw animations on imps and soldiers and zombies every 20 seconds
