Fr, id wanted 60 fps with Ray Tracing Everywhere they can

#

Handhelds get about 30-45 fps

frail bloom
#

I either see praise for this engine or vehement hate no inbetween

rugged moon
#

I'll be upgrading to 16 soon.

willow beacon
#

Gang what

obsidian shard
#

-# Sarcasm btw

frail bloom
#

No Ik what I meant is

#

Idk, it's deemed as not optimized bc it uses raytracing

#

It's the usage or raytracing, not how raytracing is used

#

And then they compare framerates

#

I can't really speak on the subject that much bc I really couldn't tell you what's good for optimization

#

And also it looks bad in the ps5? I think it looks good

harsh egret
#

This game is insanely well optimized considering it has forced rt

frail bloom
#

I don't see the grainy whatever

#

Maybe the fog like idk what makes it look worse

#

It looks better to me

ocean ore
#

Im running a 3060 with an i7 4th gen cpu, runs great lol

rugged moon
ocean ore
#

They said minimum cpu spec is like 11th gen

harsh egret
#

id will always push tech forward

rugged moon
harsh egret
#

My only concern is that they want to try to push it to potentially forced PT, iirc

#

Which I dont think they will since Nvidia is being uhhh.. yeah..

frail bloom
#

Tell me I'm oblivious

#

What did Nvidia do

harsh egret
#

They are just heavily shifting focus on to AI now

frail bloom
#

Oh that

#

And

harsh egret
#

And delaying the 60 series until like 2028 or smth

frail bloom
#

Huh

harsh egret
#

And cancelling the 50-super gpus or smth

fleet spruce
harsh egret
#

That were gonna come out this year if im not wrong

frail bloom
#

Ngl

harsh egret
fleet spruce
harsh egret
#

Like I hope id won't go full forced path tracing just cuz they can utilize 10x framegen or smth

frail bloom
#

Ye it can wait

#

Like 15 years

harsh egret
#

But by then framegen will have considerably less input delay and visual artifacting

#

So idk

frail bloom
#

They can stick with raytracing

#

Like why rush things y'know

harsh egret
#

It depends where gaming tech is by that point

frail bloom
#

Well I'm assuming at a bad point but I hope id doesn't give in

harsh egret
#

But since id works so closely with nvidia, I trust that they will do the right decision lmao

frail bloom
#

Yeah

meager vortex
#

hell olympics

#

sorry demons lover your dark lord already dead by slayer

#

that mean is you can't summon demons this world

ocean ore
#

Oh fugg. This holy city level is so sick. The landing on the ships and destroying them

#

This game destroys doom eternal

willow beacon
#

I think they’re both great and it’s mostly preference for which combat you like more

frail bloom
#

Ye

#

I prefer tda more

#

In like everything except secret hunting and the way traversal works

#

That doesn't mean I think Eternal is worse, it just doesn't make me as happy anymore

knotty pewter
#

It’s close tho

ocean ore
#

Every level has been better than the last, does it stay like that for the whole campaign?

ocean ore
#

Holy city of aurum

frail bloom
#

Ok me personally

ocean ore
#

Just killed the vagary on pause menu right now

frail bloom
#

Me personally

#

The majority of levels do get better, but the level after this is siege

#

You either love it, or hate it

#

I recommend trying not to care abt some little gold you've missed on the side

#

Bc the map is huge

nova summit
#

yo guys can u answer my question in the doom 3 server i need help please

ocean ore
#

The gold is nice to find because there have been like 2 shrines so far that ive had no money

frail bloom
#

Do mission challenges instead of trying to find 4 pieces of gold

nova summit
#

please guys

frail bloom
#

The bigger piles are better to pursue

frail bloom
ocean ore
#

The cutscenes are so 80s/early 90s

#

Like power rangers or the last starfighter vibes

#

With the prince azhak guy, love it

frail bloom
#

Ikr

#

It can be a little dry at times tho

#

That's my only complaint with the story besides the thira mcguffin thing

#

Execution can be a little dry

ocean ore
#

Damn i used a secret key on the wrong door, meant to backtrack for the ruby

#

Useless spiker skin lol

slender night

#

Well it doesnt help if i cant find that chamber again lol

ocean ore
#

There we go i found it, it was in the burnt area

#

Gonna finish the map now then make food. That was a doozy

#

Got 80% on first playthrough

ocean ore
#

also, I don't really think this is "medieval" like the promo material says it is. it's "medieval" in the way warhammer 40k is medieval

Medieval Sci-fi is still Medieval

mellow spire
#

I just finished it

#

really enjoyed my time, though I cant say I am a big fan of the music

#

looking forward to the dlc!

sweet locust
#

From what I heard of, I think TDA has decent music

#

It's just the music comparison is like Mike Tyson (Finishing Move) against a Grizzly Bear (Mick Gordon)

obsidian shard
#

I suggest having the music 20-30% louder then Sound Effects

obsidian shard

(my favorite yet)

#

Personally I enjoy it more than Eternal's OST, at first I wasn't sure if it was recency bias but I'm not enjoying it any less than on release

#

If anything I love it more and I like listening to diff remixes and stuff

frail bloom
obsidian shard
frail bloom
#

Trust me

obsidian shard

#

I'mma say it. Eternal's OST is overhyped. It's decent but it has like 3-4 good songs at maximum

frail bloom
#

I'd agree

#

But those 3-4 are generational

obsidian shard
#

All the composers have done amazingly tho

#

Love em all

I remember talking to a dude

frail bloom
#

This was recently

#

Actually nvm

#

I don't even want to

obsidian shard
#

Someone on my Twitter was trying to say I was spreading misinformation 🥀

frail bloom
#

Bro send the pic

#

Or, context

#

Nvm the pic

mellow spire
#

would y'all hang me if I said eternal was my favorite in terms of gameplay LOL but I don't think TDA was bad at all

frail bloom
#

I like tda's combat more but eternal's holds up super well

obsidian shard
# frail bloom Or, context

I posted the DLC info PDF and dude was saying like half of it was misinformation EVEN after I sent sources

mellow spire
#

my favorite parts are levels in the ||cosmic realm||, I didn't think I would ever feel dread in a modern doom game

And he was excited for dlc, reasonable

#

I love Hugo

frail bloom
#

I talked to a guy who disliked hugo a lot

#

Said he was being disrespectful by comparing Mick with fm

#

Don't ask me.

random sand
#

The best part about the doom games (the modern ones anyway) is that they all play differently. As Hugo put it, "In doom 2016 we told you to run and gun, in doom eternal it was jump and shoot, and in doom the dark ages you're gonna stand and fight"

heady escarp
#

Dark Ages is simply classic Doom with touches of Doom 2016 with Perry

slender night
#

He also once said Eternal would replace anyone's need to play 2016 so

#

Thank god he went back on that statement cuz that was a stupid thing to say!

random sand
frail bloom
#

Did that guy still not believe you

heady escarp
#

Has Hugo already talked about a series/movie for Doom?

harsh egret
#

He talked about it but nothing confirmed tho

#

Just thinking out loud with chat

mellow spire
#

if I had any major complaint about TDA it would be the ray-tracing not being optional, as much as I understand they want to push the game graphically, eternal and hell even 2016 looks gorgeous with classic lighting
i had little performance issues but i love the fluidity that comes with high fps, hardware is way too expensive so upgrading isnt on the table doomcry

frail bloom
#

That's fair, I'd blame the current gaming industry more tho

slender night
#

TDA was a huge upgrade from Eternal imo but I don't like the tacky chosen one shit they did with Thira

frail bloom
#

Well atleast it ain't the Doom slayer

#

Anymore

I have nothing against women being great characters in games, but there are times i notice it's done weirdly

He disrespected Andrew too, called him Joshua's pet

And then he calls me dumb and tells me to shut up

mellow spire
frail bloom
#

Advocating against mistreatment btw

# frail bloom And then he calls me dumb and tells me to shut up

Sounds kinda like someone I was talking with on Instagram about extreme horror, terrifer, and Outlast Trials.
The gist of it being the person was a coward that preferred his comfort zone in horror and claimed people who push through and enjoy extreme horror should be on a watchlist and are mentally ill.

frail bloom
#

Ye and it kinda confused me

heady escarp
mellow spire
#

what

frail bloom
#

In his final paragraph, he said " we don't care"

#

About the other composer's legacies

#

Like why would anyone support what you're saying

twilit pumice
mellow spire
frail bloom
#

Ye they're great

frail bloom
#

I'm trying to be reasonable but apparently typing in all caps and throwing insults is the sensible way to debate these days

slender night
#

Are we surprised? People have a parasocial relationship with Mick

mellow spire
#

I wouldn't blame anyone but Marty for what happened between him and Mick, Hugo quite literally came with Midas Touch and Josh gave us a fun time with the streams

#

If anything Mick himself iirc said folks over at id were great and to not refrain from purchasing any upcoming game from them

i think doom has the best gaming team in the entire gaming community

by a long shot

not even gta came close too what doom did in its own audience

like the negative reviews are almost zero and they somehow made multiplayer for a single player game

i never seen a community so dedicated besides id team

only the god of war team ever came close

The id Software team has around 165 Employees

They are damn small for an AAA comp

# frail bloom Oh my god

It’s good stuff. If Mick ever came out and said that song was an inspiration, it wouldn’t surprise me. Mick has a great ear and does an amazing job of blending genres. Doom 2016 was truly a lighting in a bottle moment to reinvigorate the franchise. Now we have the peak that is the modern trilogy. Mick, Andrew, David, and Finishing Move, Inc. are heroes in this house for their contributions

I'd cut off my pinky finger if they did that

Lovely ik

mellow spire
#

this game would be so much better if it had demons in it to be honest

harsh egret
#

also cool little fact, the game peaked at 3500 players today on steam which is the highest peak since june last year 😎

frail bloom
#

Wow prob that sale

#

Or smt else idk

harsh egret
#

it is the sale ofc

#

but its nice to see

#

it also was top 3 best selling on steam when the sale dropped

frail bloom
#

Wow

top 2 if u dont include counter strike lol which is free

Do love the part where you meet Serrat in TDA.
Having two dragons come in, being like "Pick me! Pick me!". Then Serrat roars happily to see Doom Slayer.
It's so adorable.

frail bloom
#

Slayer pets serrat
Slayer feeds serrat

#

I would've liked more

twilit stone
#

exactly, like the game has all these little characters moments but then never goes further with them, it really bothers me

frail bloom
#

He's only gonna be in this doom game

#

It was the only game we were gonna see him

frail bloom
#

But until then it's gonna bother me

twilit stone
#

it baffles me how they're all "we're taking the story out of the codex" only to put Serrat's entire backstory IN the codex like????

frail bloom
#

Why.

#

Just why

slender night
#

I mean it's not as excessive as Eternal hiding half of its story in the codex at least

frail bloom
#

At least

#

His backstory is the most important part bc it starts that bond

#

His death would've been more impactful by seeing the bond between the slayer and serrat fully form

#

Like what they presumably might do with Daisy. I hope it's a montage of everyone who's ever died running through the Slayers head

Those flashback sequences betta be peak

twilit stone

And pls don't mess it up

It can either go really right and awesome or terribly and horrificly wrong

green estuary
#

please don’t be as cringe as the rip and tear flashback scene in eternal

frail bloom
#

What were they thinking

twilit stone
#

the idea of that cutscene was decent, the execution is the messy part. It's like the talking raptor scene in Jurassic Park III

frail bloom
#

The execution ruined it

twilit stone
#

like you want to showcase a character's PTSD, but you do it in the most questionable way possible lol

Just show them hyperventilating when they see smt that triggers them, simple

#

Doom slayer in old uac base in hell--->death of his squadron, death of daisy, death of family, death of serrat while he tries to shake it out of his head

#

Level set in the past during the events of DOOM 64 where we get to see in full HD how fucked up the demons really looked. Cinema

frail bloom
#

Make it re-occurent actually

#

It just keeps getting worse and worse until he pulls himself together

#

Oh I got an idea!!

twilit stone
frail bloom
#

He gets those flashbacks while the high council of hell taunts him, and everytime he remembers, the boss gets the upper hand, near the end, he pulls himself back together and kills the member

#

But it's like 1-2 sec blips

#

Of screaming and crying and faces of his loved ones

#

I prob look crazy

They really should play with that

#

It's not that hard imo

#

And they're currently doing that to the sentinels

#

Taunt him throughout the whole campaign, remind him of his "failures" and who he couldn't save

twilit stone
#

it still feels as if the devs want to put more story into these games but are also still afraid of people spamming the carmack quote if they do

mellow spire
#

I'm ok with a story heavy doom game to be honest

frail bloom
#

It really does feel like that, ignore those ppl

#

Pls go all out

#

Don't be afraid

#

I actually do think they are starting to do that with tda

#

But they gotta go more and more

twilit stone
#

they should follow the Half-Life formula rather than the cinematic formula, that might work better (which seems to be what they're doing the with the DLC)

frail bloom
#

Oh for sure

#

I'm excited to see what they're doing

#

But pls, do more than just Daisy

mellow spire
#

dlc is just one mission and its just an extremely detailed cutscene of what happens to daisy and then the credits roll

I really don't get why "we don't gaf abt story" was so appealing to people when 2016 was being marketed

#

Also the more I think about it, TDA does remind me a little bit of Quake. I mean that as a compliment.

slender night
#

Compliment but not the best thing for Quake

#

TDA cannibalized a new Quake 1 or Hexen game 😔

frail bloom
#

There was a vagary design that was more humanoid but they scrapped it

#

I liked how unsettling it looked

And personally, TDA is my new personal fav Doom game, besides 2016.

frail bloom
#

I remember beating the dlc in 2 hours on a sunday

twilit pumice
# frail bloom How would y'all describe how 2016, Eternal and tda are shot

I'd wanna say Doom 3 and 2016 are the most bleak stories in Doom.
The slayer being as the powerful as he is, gets taken advantage of by Samuel Hayden and trapped back in hell. By the time he escapes hell again, earth is destroyed and Samuel ultimately failed, humanity is nearly submitted to the makyrs to prolong their own kind.

slender night
#

I think they were doing something cool by having huge plot twists fall like a domino effect but shit like VEGA felt forced

#

And all the story potential is used up in TAG 1 so TAG 2 has kinda nothing happen 😭

frail bloom
#

"Best bossfight id has ever made"

#

🥀

slender night
#

I wonder if whoever said that actually played all of id's games or is speaking just about DOOM

#

Kinda pains me how many times when people say "id's games" they mean JUST DOOM

frail bloom
#

Hugo did

#

Before tag 2 released

#

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but he did say that

That ost, body horror with anti-transhumanism themes, forced into mercy killing your own comrades, and the suffocating technology that killed all organic life on the Strogg's home planet.

So

It goes boom

#

There you go

twilit pumice
# twilit stone I like it better than 1 personally

Much as I enjoy Quake 1, Quake 1 does drag a bit for me.
Especially how the environments lack in color.
Doom Absolution aka Doom 64 is much more environmentally dark than previous classic Doom games, but still remained vibrant with its color use. Quake 1 just has a lot of brown and black with levels that don't stand out too much, except maybe the occasional level.
Ost, sound design, monsters, and guns are Quake 1's strengths.

i still think I prefer almost all of Quake I's enemies but II just has the vibes i dunno

The shells are used in both the ssg and csg

They look red with a yellow top

Idk what else to say really

More like a very boring mini boss

The pain elemental gives me more trouble

It was gonna be Erebus

Thankfully he wasn't killed

So we can see him in this dlc

this game is so frustrating to play compared to eternal

frustratingly good kekw

yep, looks like a bug 🐛

halcyon harbor
#

games been out for almost a year...

wide siren
#

not that rare to encounter bugs in games even a decade or two old. annoying sure, but maybe the dev team hasn’t come across your exact problem and it would be more useful to report it 🤷🏻

halcyon harbor
#

i don't see a bug report channel in this discord or a bug report button in game

I'm wondering does anyone have a steam key for Doom TDA? I really want to play it but don't have any money to buy it.

#

When is the release date for the dlc

#

Or the expected release date

foggy fable
#

If anyone here somehow had that knowledge, there would be some sort of announcement or more

random sand

meager vortex
#

please

#

buy your self

plush talon
#

you didn't read what i said before

meager vortex
#

you don't have a money to buy it right?

#

so? what? begging? that is reason?

plush talon
#

it's like 80 euro equal to 800 kr

foggy fable
#

Yes please do not beg, I am sympathetic for not being able to buy it I’ve gone many many years unable to buy anything so I understand the feeling. But begging won’t help

meager vortex
#

i know expensive but begging is useless

#

just play game pass

#

you can play doom the dark ages there

plush talon
#

i don't have gamepass

meager vortex
#

bruh

#

you can use a xbox app buy game pass it's cheap price

#

jeeze

plush talon
#

isn't xbox montly pay

meager vortex
#

you can subcribed and unsubscribed

plush talon
#

and still play?

meager vortex
#

yeah

random sand
plush talon
#

yes

meager vortex
#

if unsubcribed after month you can't play

random sand
# plush talon yes

TDA is on sale rn. like 300 kr or $30. that deal ends at the end of next week. so if you want the game your best options would be save up for the sale or get gamepass

foggy fable
#

If you’ve never used gamepass they usually have a free 1 week trial, which would be enough time to finish the game

meager vortex
#

oh! that is good

plush talon
#

100% or just story

foggy fable
#

Depends how much you play but I’d imagine what’s more important is it’s a way to play free no? Getting picky about 100% is meh

random sand
plush talon
#

i have completed doom eternal twice

#

no dlc

meager vortex
#

if you play style speed runer

random sand
#

i could 100% it in a week but i know the game like the back of my hand. might be trickier for you

#

the thing that sucks about 100% TDA is there's no fast travel around the map so if you miss something, gotta redo the level

plush talon
#

oh no

foggy fable
#

Tbf it likley breaks encounters

meager vortex
#

or just play the game

plush talon
#

pc version of xbox gamepass is 160 kr a month

meager vortex
#

rip and tear demons

random sand
# foggy fable Tbf it likley breaks encounters

idk about that since eternal had fast travel and you only got access to it when you were at the end of a level and had finished all objectives. i do think that would work here too but i suppose with some levels being open world, it'd be weird to implement in those

plush talon
#

doesn't doom 2016 also have fast travel?

foggy fable
#

But I meant a lot of encounters are likely currently coded to occur as you move around

#

Teleporting back might break that

#

Eternal is linear so it’s easier to make it so encounters are one and done

slender night
foggy fable
#

Is my guess

random sand
#

aratum gets destroyed but that's after the final cutscene and you've completed the level

foggy fable
#

Worst case set game to 150% speed to fly through levels

wintry nexus

to play doom the dark ages on xbox gamepass then you have to pay 285kr

#

Didn't Bossranker post abt it too

#

Did someone tell him it ain't real

wintry forge
#

Unfortunately. I messaged him on discord lmao

frail bloom
#

Alr phew

wintry forge
#

He fell for the bait. A few other YouTubers posted it as well sadly

frail bloom
#

It's alr they prob learned their lesson

wintry nexus
#

Also a show/movie without THE doom guy is just stupid

#

The movies tried it

#

It didn’t work

frail bloom
#

I think they shouldn't touch the slayer stuff for a live action

foggy fable
#

No it could totally work but there are specific ways to do it and they keep not doing It.

frail bloom
#

But for a "Doomguy" movie it could work

slender night
wintry nexus
frail bloom
#

Does the first movie have a good reputation nowadays

wintry nexus
#

I didn’t watch the second but people said it was really bad

slender night
frail bloom
#

Hm

slender night
#

I'm sure if everyone complaining about it watched it, then we'd have like, at least 30% more fans of the movie

wintry forge
#

Karl Urban deserves a second chance. Like Ryan Reynolds got to redeem himself with redoing Deadpool

#

(For live-action)

frail bloom
#

Well the second movie is inexcusable

#

So there's that

slender night
#

Yeah Annihilation is garbage

frail bloom
#

Female Doomguy is interesting but everything besides that is like why

#

Everything was watered down

meager vortex
#

doom movie director he don't know doom

wintry nexus
#

Didn’t Id have no involvement in annihilation? 😭

frail bloom
#

Pretty sure they didn't yeah

slender night
wintry nexus
#

Oh

#

Oh that’s weird

frail bloom
#

I gotta watch some reviews of the second movie

slender night
#

Actually the director for Annihilation HAS to have played the games, because if you make something THIS bad it has to be intentional lol

wintry nexus
#

Probably watched half a lore video and said yeah, I’ll make a movie

frail bloom
#

Well mission failed successfully

#

Or it failed idk

#

It sucks

foggy fable
#

A huge part of annihilation issue is it takes too long to establish the story again

#

Give us a doom with hell on earth, and in the first 5 minutes we get the lore drop of scientists opening a portal and argent energy and then bam demons in the first 6 minutes

slender night
#

Isn't there like this really long Family Guy ass joke about an underwear thief that stretches across MULTIPLE minutes before the action happens?

foggy fable
#

First half an hour is death destructions buildings falling apart, then next hour is a group of soldiers trying to stay together transporting someone or something or getting somewhere shooting demons as they get picked off and see more demons swarming around before they get to the end and ultimately die but maybe we see the slayer teased at the end saving everyone for 2 seconds
(Like that one halo movie where chief appears at the end for the ending scene)

meager vortex
#

wasted the rock

slender night
#

Nah Rock's character was awesome

wintry nexus
foggy fable
#

I want doom 4 so badly ;-;

wintry nexus
#

Same T-T

frail bloom
#

So they only had zombies and imps???

#

Why even make the movie

wintry nexus
#

Yup…

foggy fable
#

Budget

wintry nexus
#

Quick money

foggy fable
#

But man a proper movie can be made with much less budget

frail bloom
#

Did they kill off Doomguy

plush talon
#

the two glory kills i love in doom eternal is on a powral and a zombie ripping out their spines

frail bloom
#

Am I seeing that right

meager vortex
#

if doom movie remake it will be like doom 2016 eternal dark ages style

wintry nexus
#

I remember the actress said something about “who needs a doom guy” or wtv

foggy fable
frail bloom
#

Who's blackowitz

foggy fable
#

A trash Easter egg

foggy fable
wintry nexus
#

I agree

frail bloom
#

I always liked the idea of doomguy/slayer making a cameo in Hell killing demons

wintry nexus
#

Just give me the pov of like a soldier on earth trying to evacuate survivors

frail bloom
twilit stone
meager vortex
#

or ending scene survior find slayer's coffin

frail bloom
#

Interesting

wintry nexus
#

Really good

#

Dammit so many ideas are popping in my head

frail bloom
#

It's so easy to make a hell knight scary if you're not portraying the slayer

#

They're like double his height

#

And he's like six foot

#

Most ppl are like 5 foot 7-8

wintry nexus
#

They’re portrayed really well in that one hologram in 2016

#

Where we first see it

wintry nexus
#

Really terrifying

frail bloom
#

Screams really sold it

wintry nexus
#

They can tear you in half easily

frail bloom
#

One hell knight spells the end for an entire squadron of like 15 soldiers

wintry nexus
#

Gosh that reminds me how much of a powerhouse doom guy is

meager vortex
#

hell knight is very tall but he meet slayer he look like a poor siba dog

frail bloom
#

Even more, can be 30

twilit stone
frail bloom
#

Yes the fear factor

meager vortex
#

they fear is only you

frail bloom
#

I'd like some more unsettling demon designs to be adapted too

wintry nexus
#

It was really because of doom 2016’s art direction

twilit stone
#

fun fact: it actually makes you feel more badass when you overcome something that once terrified you

wintry nexus
#

Gritty and bloody

frail bloom
#

Yeah I'd really like smt that unsettles you

#

Lemme find this vagary concept art real quick

meager vortex
#

today mars news :slayer's coffin found!

frail bloom
#

The bottom left, I love it

wintry nexus
#

Nope 🙂‍↔️

frail bloom
#

Look at the teeth

wintry nexus
#

Not fighting that

frail bloom
#

It's so unsettling we were this close

twilit stone
#

i was more let down by TDA's Whiplash design, especially compared to the concept art

frail bloom
wintry nexus
twilit stone
#

or the Carcass from Eternal, that thing's concept art is insane

frail bloom
#

I love that design soooo much

#

It's a mix of the smiling titan and eren's titan kinda

#

Me in general I'd like more unsettling humanoid designs

wintry nexus
#

Imagine seeing that thing as a civilian in the village of khalim

plush talon
#

why is there a giant mec in doom eternal?

frail bloom
plush talon

is it the one you use in tda

frail bloom

Lemme take a pic

Thank you!

wintry nexus

Yw!

frail bloom

But yeah like you I wish we got smt a bit more grotesque

frail bloom

Yes!

wintry nexus
#

I NEED to see a cosmic variant of the vagary In the dlc

frail bloom
#

I mean it is already green

wintry nexus
#

tentacles

meager vortex
#

imagine chapter1 master level campaign vagary aggadon hunters show up

frail bloom
#

I'm not really a big tentacles fan

#

Idk why

#

It always covers the mouth area

#

But I'm fine with it on the mancs

#

We should've had a cosmic variation of the mancs

even i'm too young to die is diffucult and i have completed eternal on ultra violence

wintry nexus
#

I really do wonder why the cosmic realm exists

#

Is it for endless torment like hell?

twilit stone
#

Hugo had a lovecraft phase

wintry nexus
#

No I mean from a lore perspective

#

I adore the cosmic realm though no matter what

#

Nvm codexs exist

plush talon
#

i might know why demons fear the slayer because he is the dark lord in part1

wintry nexus
#

I should read more

twilit stone
#

it's probably just to showcase Hell's manipulation and consumption of other realms, plus giving an origin to the Wraiths

solar spoke
#

I like to think that the Cosmic Realm is where transfigured Maykrs are sent and that Urdak forgot about it since it's been a long time since one transfigured

twilit stone
#

that could also be true, that big spider squid thing definitely has a brain thing goin on

solar spoke
#

that and the single eye motif that Hayden has going on in his abdomen and the purple energy attacks

fleet spruce
#

purple energy? interesting

#

he even teleports in a similar fashion to acolyte...

solar spoke
#

good point actually, he does teleport similarly

#

yeah. all of his energy attacks are purple. Even the electric eye

fleet spruce
#

and that's on top of his form looking very eldritch already

#

we'll get some sort of revelation in a post-eternal game im sure

you can see them, you can even pin them to be visible while playing

i don’t remember exactly how, but when you have the challenges menu open there should be an option to change to the weapon challenges

its kind of buggy sometimes tho and you have to pin unpin somethings to get it to show

and you can only have a max 3 things pinned between both challenges and masteries
