There is no question the ssg is faster at shooting than lock ons

flint flame
#

clueless

#

Does he know???

strange gale
#

he's kinda right, that's only true when punchswapping ssg and having the punches make contact with an enemy

#

slob is 2700 damage a pop at about the same rate as the 1600 damage of regular ssg punchswaps

slow sigil
#

SLOBs aren't that precise

#

It's more that you have to know about them that is "hard"

hoary bough
#

Like idk what is so hard to get

#

From the moment you start locking on to the moment all three rockets fire takes more time than just shooting the ssg

#

If you as a fighter can’t wield a weapon effectively, then it’s obviously not the best weapon for you. Git gud only goes so far.

slow sigil
#

We didn't at all talk about personal choice though

#

Otherwise you can argue every weapon is fine thrash

burnt moss
slow sigil
#

Cause someone, somewhere, just straight up can't use it

slow sigil
#

But no amount of liking the super shotgun can just make it shoot harder

#

Power of friendship in doom

burnt moss
#

Nobody said “DPS=better”. You aren’t factoring in ease of use, or mobility, or reaction window. Your entire definition of what is better seems to be “what can deal the most hurt under optimal circumstances with optimal playstyle”.

slow sigil
#

I literally mentioned chaingun shield which primary feature is practical godmode

burnt moss
#

Oh and unpopular opinion: fun to use is also criteria that needs to be considered.

slow sigil
#

the DPS isn't even that far behind, and you have BS like this too. the mobility is really a mood point becaue, yes meathook is great, missing it is more a fun downside

slow sigil
#

you're free to like stuff but that won't make them good
like how mayo likes FA but that not at all will EVER make fa the best weapon

burnt moss
#

Do you measure how good a game is by its FPS?

slow sigil
#

numerical vallues go further then firerate and damage

burnt moss
burnt moss
slow sigil
#

kappa literal godmode for one

#

but even for dps, rocket is just better still?

burnt moss
slow sigil
#

also i didn't say ssg was useless, yeah it's pretty handy in quite a lot of situations, but is it the best? no

burnt moss

better then "i like this so it's the best"

burnt moss
#

LOB requires you to be a target for a longer period of time than SSG. That’s a mobility restraint.

burnt moss
slow sigil
#

being bad is not a play style fyi

burnt moss
#

Damage tanking is a strategy though. Point of game is kill demons, not dodge everything.

#

My playstyle at one point included using cover. So LOB didn’t fit in nearly as well due to higher exposed time. Hitscan was king for that style.

slow sigil
#

SLOB

burnt moss
#

Remind me why BFG isn’t best

slow sigil
#

it doesn't magically recharge over time unlike all your other ammo

#

beinf finite pulls it back, though with constricted speedruns they actually have BFG shots over iirc

burnt moss
slow sigil
burnt moss
slow sigil
#

it is, but S + dash balances it out 7/10 times

burnt moss
slow sigil
#

and again, the obscene DPS with SLOB which barely has splash damage

burnt moss
#

What’s S

slow sigil
#

something being the best =/= physical impossibility for other stuff to fill in gaps

slow sigil
burnt moss
slow sigil
#

fyi best is also not flawless

burnt moss
#

Could you just define it

slow sigil
#

do i need to give a definition to the word "best"?

oh jesus google

burnt moss
slow sigil
#

i don't have the knowledge on either to give an opinion on them

#

i'm sure they have gaps either can fill out, and maybe if i knew enough i could all one the best for roading

#

but cars are more broad then.... a fairly niche specific video game

burnt moss
#

Is a plane or a car better

slow sigil
#

are you really comparing cars to planes to get a point up in a debate about whether 1 gun is better then the other gun in a video game

burnt moss
#

Shotgun vs Rifle made Nazis formally complain. Look it up

slow sigil
#

after they gassed the french yeah

#

though france gassed them first but i think that was more mild

burnt moss
#

So yeah, I guess the hill I will die on is that SSG and RL can’t be objectively compared

#

I know it’s just a game, but if there was an objective best then militaries wouldn’t diversify their weaponry nearly as much as they do.

slow sigil
#

irl they have completely different uses compared to ingame

burnt moss
#

Not really

slow sigil
#

your planes to cars comparison would work if they where in eternal and the difference was that the plane can shot further but just consumes more "ammo"
meanwhile IRL they are.... just too different

burnt moss
#

Direct Fire = Hitscan usually. Indirect Fire = Splash Damage

burnt moss
slow sigil
#

pretty sure rocket launchers irl are more used for anti-vehicle, compared to the shotgun which is just a pretty amazing all arounder

burnt moss
#

Type of projectile is relevant

slow sigil
#

yeah but not enough to just say 1 is superior

burnt moss
burnt moss
slow sigil
#

because your brain can't comprehend more then 4 metrics?

burnt moss
#

I wouldn’t clear a building with a rocket launcher but I also wouldn’t shoot a building with a shotgun

burnt moss
slow sigil
#

ok but demons don't have many weapon resistances except for spirits and some irrelevant demons

slow sigil
#

and again, something being better does not mean it can't do everything the other things can

burnt moss
burnt moss
#

SSG can’t replace PB

slow sigil
#

objectivally speaking, mobile turret is worse then ssg
does this suddenly mean ssg can one cycle a posses marauder just because it's better? no

burnt moss
#

Agreed

slow sigil
burnt moss
#

Ask a geologist what the best volcano is

#

Ask a soldier what the best weapon is

#

Ask lawyer what the best law is lol

slow sigil
#

we are talking about a 3 year old game sweetie, not the complex web of IRL physics and laws

#

eternal ain't that complex, it's a bit more complex then the standard game but that's also mostly to most DPS being incredibly watered down

burnt moss
#

DE has significant complexity. There’s many different playstyles and they each use the advantages of the weapons differently

slow sigil
#

and you can still measure things

burnt moss
slow sigil
#

ok no i am wrong

#

doom eternal is fuckign quantum mechanics and can not be comprehended by mere mortal beings

burnt moss
#

It’s not Mario

slow sigil
#

the whole idea of the ssg giving great mobility that can be substituted and missed whilst chaingun gives godmode and near comparable DPS and RL blows it out of the park with damage is completely neglible

#

Guys, I have a question. There's a Bethesda pack bundle 2023 that I'd like to claim but when I try to, it doesn't aviable to view in game.
What can I do?
I'm a noob slayer.

#

Hello. Do the enemies take the same amount of hits to kill in different difficulties? Or, do enemies in lower difficulties require less bullets to die?

azure oriole

Demon health is the same across all difficulties

Yoo I just found out you can change the UI color settings

#

This is so much cooler looking (minus the colors all look mostly the same so I might have to adapt to stuff like my health and armor not being as contrasted)

#

Oh and my frag and ice grenade icons look the same now ):

#

That might be the most difficult to adapt to lol

#

I love how the first marauder fight is supposed to be serious but you can beat him in like two seconds

acoustic merlin
#

just beat doom eternal for the first time, dk why im saying this here, guess im just bored

chrome jewel
#

Oh cool

#

I'm just revisiting this game

#

Cus I love it

acoustic merlin
#

i got it like, a year ago, then left cause i sucked

small mural
#

I also just beat the game recently, and now I'm going through all the levels again and getting all the secrets and challenges I missed and also doing all the secret encounters and slayer gates because I skipped all of those lmao

acoustic merlin
#

but came back cus i was in a doom mood

small mural
acoustic merlin
#

i jus watched vids

small mural
#

But then I started up 2016 and finished it and got all the lore stuff so I actually understood stuff in eternal lol

chrome jewel
#

I haven't played 2016 yet either

acoustic merlin
#

whats ur guy's opinion on doom eternal for console

chrome jewel
#

I should tho

small mural
#

You should, 2016 is really fun

#

It's also a lot easier than eternal lmao

acoustic merlin
#

we love super shotgun-ballista combo

small mural
chrome jewel
#

I'll try it

#

I have and I love it

acoustic merlin
small mural
#

Tbh I've just been using super shotgun for bigger stuff and precision shot for fodder enemies. It's fun to get all the fodder enemies into one line so I can kill like 5 of em with 1 precision shot

#

Ooh and I also love to get everyone in one big area, freeze everything, spin around with flame belch and then throw both frags and reap the armor

chrome jewel
#

I just love using super shot gun basically the only gun I use lol

small mural
#

Sometimes that makes my computer lag like hell though lmfao

acoustic merlin
small mural
#

I didn't use the super shotgun pretty much at all until near the end of the game when I was kinda forced to

#

But yeah, now it's all I use lmao

acoustic merlin
#

the fact that i used to think Arachnotrons were hard is funny to me

chrome jewel
#

Yea I'm playing doom on my old ps4 right now and I'm afraid it's going to explode

#

I don't like them they just kinda annoying

acoustic merlin
#

fair

chrome jewel
#

Same with cacodemons

small mural
#

Arachnos and cacos aren't hard, they just use up my shotgun ammo

chrome jewel
#

Ik just they annoying

small mural
#

Cacos are really hard when there's like 3+ all around you and they're right next to you so they just combo bite you and drain your health

#

But other than that they're ez lmao

acoustic merlin
#

yup

chrome jewel
#

What's your favorite demon In doom

small mural
#

There's only 3 suits in the fortress of doom right? (classic, 2016 and sentinel)

chrome jewel
#

I think so

small mural
#

Is there any award for buying everyting in the fortress of doom? Cause I think I just did that lol

empty basin
#

Cacodemons are sort of a joke because of the sticky bombs instakill, but yeah if you leave them for too long they will barrage you with their triple orb blast and bites, which can take a huge chunk of your HP instantly

chrome jewel
#

I haven't done that yet

the only reward is from spending 8 sentinel batteries

I wonder who made the slayer’s super shotgun

#

Was it the slayer himself or one of the sentinels?

tacit aspen

empty basin
#

Sentinel weaponry are energy-based, and the SSG uses gunpowder shells

small mural
empty basin
#

And we do see from his personal room in the Fortress of Doom that the Slayer has the tinkering skills necessary to modify his suits

small mural
#

I'm pretty sure he gets it in doom 1 tho

oblique grove
#

he gets it in doom 2

#

there is no super shotgun in doom 1993

jolly igloo
small mural
#

Yeah ig, the double barrel

empty basin
#

The base SSG itself probably yes, but the Meathook attachment is definitely a self-modification, since the only person who'd ever think about its use would be the one person who's whole life has been slaying demons for all eternity

small mural
tacit aspen
#

He picks up another ssg in Doom 2016, I like to think he modified it, and added the meathook

small mural
azure oriole
#

The Codex legitimately has Hell priests whining about his shotgun meat hook.

empty basin
#

stuffs like the demonic engravings are probably also self-modified

oblique grove
#

thats true if it was modded by demons why was it not modded in doom 2016

empty basin
#

because the 2016 SSG is a random SSG he picked up from a fallen soldier

small mural
#

Ugh I hate doom's guidance system so much

oblique grove
#

the solder could have been a high class solder becuase we see his weapons and armor taken away in doom 2016

#

there also are weapons you find in hell and there not modded

small mural
#

I'm on the super gore nest mission and I just completely confused myself by thinking I should go to the middle of the gore nest and put the blue and red keys in cause I went and picked both of them up but then when I got there it wouldn't let me, and then I realized that I still need to activate the second power terminal to kill the heart

#

But the ping system lead me to the blue and red key insert areas and now I'm just lost

empty basin
# oblique grove the solder could have been a high class solder becuase we see his weapons and ar...

the soldier is likely a veteran yes, as implied in the codex entry where veteran soldiers insists on their usage While this weapon has been removed from the UAC's approved weapon arsenal, many veteran operators insist that there is no better alternative for close combat. It offers incomparable destructive power at extremely close range, but it is completely ineffective at long range. The weapon is light and small, making it a favored secondary weapon that no self-respecting combat specialist would be seen without.

oblique grove
#

i guess thats true but theres no doubt he modded his own weapon

burnt moss
empty basin
#

anyways, the 2016 SSG is likely not the same as the Eternal SSG, since Vega says "A relic from your past" which implies that it is much older than the 2016 version

#

the Eternal SSG is likely before the Slayer was sealed in the tomb

small mural
#

Yeah I'm in the upper area now, I don't remember how to get down to the lower area

oblique grove
#

ya its from doom 2 an old game so it could be the one that is doom guys

empty basin
#

yeah it might be a heavily modified version from the doom 2 SSG

on UN i wouldn't do that Slayer gate since you could lose everything and also it introduces new enemies so I'd skip it and just carry on

If it says "from the right" attack from the right side of the demon, therefore your left... I guess it's like mirror right. It's stupidly explained in game

Took me ages to understand as well

yet the back one is bit simple and easier, i'll try to complete those challenges left behind after beating up icon of sin

Isn't it argent powered anyways

Also btw is the cyber mancubus weaker than the normal mancubus? Usually I meathook -> blood punch -> ssg shot and that gets them into gk state instantly, but with normal mancubus it takes that + another ssg shot or two to get them into gk state at all

Ohh I see

I love it when the game can't tell if I want to glory kill or blood punch even though I'm staring right at the huge gk state enemy right in front of me

I 100%ed the main campaign earlier tho

#

I bought the ancient gods today tho so I'm gonna have fun with that for a bit

empty basin
#

It's especially useful on the DLC, since there's a certain enemy that buffs the enemy's HP

#

"Damn when is this thing gonna die"
Pulls out Microwave Beam and shoots for half a second
"Ok so it has that amount of HP left"

small mural
#

I'll def keep that in mind

#

I also started a new save for the main campaign so I can do the extra lives mode, so that'll be fun lol

#

I forgot how weird the movement is without the air movement rune

empty basin
#

yeah I feel like Air Control should be a suit upgrade instead of a rune

#

same with Punch and Reave (enemies killed by blood punch drops health)

#

On another note, ughhh... the more I try the Taras Nabad ML, the worse my gameplay becomes and the more I hate it

There's the matter of the difficulty and whatnot, but also man it's so fucking looooong

I'm on my second play thru of eternal. Beat it once back in October of 2020, but had to give the game in for some extra cash for bills. Adopted mom got it agsin when we found out about the dlc. Just finished the Super Gore Nest board...... I hate that level...!

Why hate the level? The acid pools for one. And the timed escape at the end. It's a lengthy level to complete, with a lot of arena zones.... but i love the ample opportunities to rip n tear! It's mostly the acid areas n that escape. Oh yea, n thst one preator suit coin that always eludes me......

Hi guys so I finally finished the campaign on nightmare and i got to say its hard.

I started the game only for the platinum, but started enjoying it a lot.
Finished the main campaign on the ez dificulties and then started doing some master levels. I also finished the dlcs and i love this game.
I dont have a lot to do now in doom eternal. What should I do?
Any recomendations?

Because you’re not doing it because you’re proud of yourself you’re doing it because you have an ego, right after somebody was talking about difficulty you go “oh yea? Well I know difficult, I did everything on ultra nightmare” and that’s just so pretentious

the dblade usage was already interesting before any possessed enemies showed up, but after that it became arguably the worst option

#

was wondering why you were taking no damage, then i skipped to the end and realized this was recorded on uv

that explains a lot

short rune
#

Oh yh forgot that 1

#

Yeh was rusty as heck

#

That's why it has the "title doom eternal in 2023" since I haven't played for months so I decided to play on UV cuz I was rusty and I did the montage at the end to show off which is the recorded section

#

going full tunnel vision on one archvile that isn't doing anything and letting the other one finish its summoning sequence is also interesting

#

the same arch gets to summon twice for free

At 4:46 hammer was used to stagger one marauder but hasn't staggered the other that's a poor decision from his part

I am the most avarage doom eternal controller bot

But fr needed to ego boost bc I have been humble on discord and on dead games for newcomers and players alike and just getting the attention gives me a relief, I am actually very egotistical on the inside and there were a lot of times that I had to be humble, but this time I just wanted all of it out as sort of relief

I haven’t been able to freeze them because while I focus in one, the others start spawning demons and it makes it way harder

But I’m taking a good thing away from this: I think I’m ready to finish horde mode (after this level)

That should be a way to clear them ig

Cacodemon pretty epic

Yeah, I think I’ve died like 6-7 times now lmaooo. I know the spawn points of the first phases (aracnos, tyrants), but I haven’t taken time to know where exactly the 4 archvilles spawn. And I mean: it’s hard to know exactly where they are and to take a breath (I’m on controller :,))

#

Think I need to go to a corner of the map, choose one arcville to fire, and use bfg, and let it do the rest with the other enemies

#

Tho I do know you can kill the arcville with two guided shots from the rocket launcher, but it always targets other enemies

#

Does anyone ever actually die to a Marauder and not the demons you run into trying to ignore him?

Is there a list anywhere of the DOOM Eternal soundtrack (the unreleased one from the collector's edition) but ordered in appearance in the actual gameplay, like all the music from Hell On Earth first and then the music in Exultia

flint flame

#

Does it? Cause Soul Extraction is the 4 track and that's like halfway through the game

#

And from what I can tell, the songs in Exultia are in the very end of the tracklist

flint flame

Maybe I’m remembering it wrong

Yeah the official release has a lot of songs that are out of order

Yeah Meathook is the combat music for Exultia but it's on track 54

#

Okay well it does have the tracklist in the description so I'll def use that

#

Other than the track listing, they also did a proper smooth transition between tracks, such as going from A Slayer City to Meathook

#

it's straight up fire

small mural
#

Ooh yeah why is super gore nest panned to the hard right in the beginning

#

(on the original)

#

Idk part of me wishes there was a version with the transitions but without the remixes, cause I kinda prefer to listen to the original thing

empty basin
#

Yeah I would as well, but unfortunately the official version is kinda... not really good

#

The song S.O.S. from Earth is the biggest offender

#

When the Slayer reloads his shotgun, you can hear the screaming voice of the woman from the game's intro

#

Which is just... I really am not sure how that happened unless the people mixing the track just recorded the ingame audio?

Turns out there is a soundtrack for ancient gods pt. 1, and there's technically a soundtrack for pt. 2 but there's no tracklist

But there’s the gamerips on youtube, they go hard! Due to Doom Eternal and TAG I stopped my Spotify subscription and I started paying Youtube Music

#

Blood swamps and UAC Atlantica are my favorites, I didn’t really love TAG2 soundtrack

small mural
#

Holy shit, the game really spiked in difficulty in the last few moments of the ancient gods 1

#

The samur fight was stupid, I saved up 8 extra lives and only dying maybe once, and then I made it out of the samur fight with 1 left

I can't imagine ever doing that on ultra nightmare

Super Gore Nest was also made longer than the base level but I feel like it didn't add too much

Taras Nabad and Mars Core just throws fight after fight after fight and waves after waves after waves that it just feels so long and unending

Or I guess this is just me complaining and I'm the weird one 😩

I have yet to even attempt the master levels so ig I'm not looking forward to that lol

#

I guess I won't touch the MLs apart from Cultist Base, ARC Complex and Super Gore Nest

small mural
#

Are they worth it tho?

empty basin
#

They are there to give more content for players who are looking for more challenge

#

They add different enemy lineup on encounters and most of them alter the level's fight pacing

small mural
#

Yeah I still have to do Ancient Gods 2 and then I have to see what horde mode is and maybe battle mode

#

And then I have to go back to 2016 to do the secret finding and all that cause I skipped that part to go to eternal

empty basin
#

Cultist Base and ARC Complex were Master Levels included with the release of the game so there was almost no change whatsoever to the level structure

small mural
#

So rn I'm splitting between an extra life mode for the main campaign so I can get the Phobos suit and also ancient gods

#

And I still have yet to try ultra nightmare at all as well

#

Given ancient gods 1 got really difficult at the end on only hurt me plenty, I'm interested to see if part 2 is gonna be as hard or even harder

#

Ngl fighting the seraph was not very much fun

empty basin
#

Yeah DOOM Eternal doesn't really handle boss fights very well most of the time

small mural
# empty basin Yeah DOOM Eternal doesn't really handle boss fights very well most of the time

Yeah, a bunch of the fights before that also spiked in difficulty but those were more fun, like the Slayer gate was exceptionally hard but still a lot of fun to navigate, meanwhile during the boss fight I had to struggle with constantly having low health and no ammo and not being able to move and not being able to shoot the seraph anyways because he would teleport every time I looked at him

Information from answers.microsoft.com:
After a call from Microsoft support, it turns out that despite what the Xbox App says, the two Doom Eternal DLC's are not currently included in the Game Pass subscription, and actually only the standard edition is. So even thought the Deluxe edition has been downloaded and installed along with the two DLC's, you'll have to purchase the DLC's separately as they are blocked from running.

I just brought Samuel to the fortress of doom and VEGA pointed out that his robot body is "of similar design to the fortress", which was made by the Kahn Makyr

That and the game alluding to Samuel being regarded as a God by Earth after he returned from Mars with the Crucible

#

And it does kinda tie up the whole reason why the doomguy was released from the sarcophogus in the first place

They might've retconned doom 2016 but at least ancient gods didn't retcon the main campaign at all

Super Shotgun with flaming meathook / Ballista // Hotswap and fast hands for the Super Shotgun. Seeing how to beat him quickly -- Shoot when green eyes with SShotgun, then Ballista shot right after. Repeat until dead (timing can vary but finding that right moment works). Burn and Chainsaw/Glory kill zombies for ammo, health and armor

just use combat shotgun sticky or regular grenade

Marauders are kinda easy, I just prefer to clear the stage of other enemies before I focus on him. Depending on the arena though that's either impossible or just really annoying to do, especially when he summons a bunch of dogs

The game developer also stated it has “full and complete documented evidence” to disclose in an “appropriate venue as needed.”

Paying (not even) just $10 for not just a skin but a set of skins is a pretty good deal imo

In a lot of other games with microtransactions stuff like that would cost a lot nore

keep in mind this is content that's free but unnecessarily paywalled

#

unless you spent all your time grinding out the game since day 1, you won't have gotten these series items, and the only way to get them now is to pay, which is scummy

small mural
#

I think that's better than not being able to get them at all

polar dew

or they could, you know, let you able to progress different series'

#

i.e. just because it's not the exact day that series was out you can use that one and progress your levels towards that one, to unlock the skins in that series

I really don't think it's as big of a deal as you're making it out to be

#

$8 isn't that much, especially for the amount of stuff that you get out of it and even moreso when compared to the amount of content other games would provide for the same amount of money

polar dew
#

it's still unneccessary mtx for free content

small mural
#

You can always level up the current series to get the free content that's available rn

polar dew
#

this is content that was free, anyone who owned the game could get these items, now they're locked behind paywall for no real reason

small mural
#

I think I just got to max level today actually, and I've only been playing for like a week

polar dew
small mural
#

Then don't level it up

polar dew
#

free stuff is free stuff, i'll always take that, but say i'd rather want something from series 6

small mural
#

And stop being a choosing beggar lol

polar dew
small mural
#

They have free content available right now

polar dew
#

"if" not "i don't", this free content isn't bad

#

My issue is that this is content that was free but if you decided not to play, or couldn't play, you're locked out of it and it's behind a paywall

small mural
#

That's still a lot more than most other games would allow you

polar dew
#

and?

small mural
#

Hence what I mean by choosing beggar

polar dew
#

just because i get some free stuff doesn't mean i can't complain about mtx for stuff that, again, was free behind unseen time codes

#

Just because I want content that was free timelocked, that is now paid mtx, that's a reason to be upset in some form

There's a doomguy skin in Fortnite that I'd love to spend my money on but it was a battlepass exclusive, meaning it'll never be up for purchase again. I'd love to buy it in a heartbeat but unfortunately most games don't let you obtain old content

#

They should let you access older passes so you can earn the content from them and if you pay you don't instantly lose what you didn't yet earn if you didn't grind out the game

small mural
#

I think you just want stuff for free

#

It's just a game skin (multiple, actually), it's a pretty reasonable price imo

polar dew
#

I want content that was free and earnable by earning it, instead of paying for that very same content just because i didn't know that this content was even happening, and I only found out because there's some that look really good, but I can't access it because it's either locked forever or behind a paywall

#

And paying for content that was free just feels like I'm getting ripped off, that because I didn't play during a certain time, I have to pay extra just to make up for it

small mural
#

It sucks that the doom eternal collector's edition box sold out before I was a fan of doom so now I have to pay a premium to buy it second hand

#

That's just the way things are

#

Still worth it imo, so I'm still going to buy it anyways

polar dew
#

so we're comparing paid content and third party high price resellers to free content being resold by the exact same company for an actual price

small mural
#

The box was originally sold for around $200, now it goes for $400+, sometimes without some of the included content. I'd say that's comparable to free vs $8

#

It's how a company makes a profit. If they were to sell Doom Eternal with all content available for free, they would lose out since a person purchases it one time, and if there were plenty to order it then a profit would be made. Hence the extra content. Most games are like this nowadays

small mural
#

Still had to pay $60 to own the game to be able to get the skins

small mural
azure oriole
#

If they did it similar to 2016, then it could of worked with the free updates and all content. But how many more skins are available with Eternal now?

polar dew
small mural
azure oriole
#

And most is optional. Some DLC maps do need to be purchased but most is still available if one purchased the base game

polar dew
azure oriole

#

That's your issue then, if you're just ignoring the possibility of obtaining it

polar dew
azure oriole
#

Doesn't bother me either way

small mural
#

It's pretty low, actually

polar dew
#

in a paid game? also what about the series that aren't paid AND are just gone?

small mural
polar dew
#

free content being transitioned to paid content is already too high, unless it's say, an early access/demo being given a price/removed

azure oriole
#

Fair points being made

polar dew
#

You want a specific skin? set your focused series to that one and get to that level that has it, you still have to work for it instead of it just being given

small mural
polar dew

#

I just don't get why $8 is that big of a deal

polar dew
#

it's not the exact price, it's that it's free content in a paid game transitioned to paid

small mural
#

So if it cost $1 you'd still be complaining?

azure oriole
#

Each person sees it differently. I mean, if it was a subscription service, at a low price and there was more than skins, such as maps / weapons / DLC levels for Single and MP, then it might work. But I can't say

polar dew
small mural
#

$1 is basically free

polar dew
#

but it's not. it's still paid, it's still content that's been gone from free in a paid game to paid, regardless of how low

small mural
#

Yeah it's just not that hard to get $8 lol

I remember when they said no mtx, they must’ve been inspired by Tod’s sweet little lies

polar dew
#

coffee, you're missing my whole point. it's not "oh it's $8 for a whole series" it's "free items gone to paid mtx in a paid game"

small mural
#

I agree that Bethesda is a shitty company, but I think you're just confusing "inaccessible" with "a little bit harder to get"

polar dew

#

You can't get nearly as much stuff for $8 in other games

polar dew
#

I don't support that sort of thing, especially in paid games. you should be able to get all cosmetics (besides deluxe edition, pre-order bonus stuff, etc) for free with the base game, maybe some locked behind gameplay dlcs.

You’re to used to getting scammed by modern game if you think that’s a good deal

This is Oblivion Horse armor dlc

Seeing on Steam in Australia, I see your point about cosmetics. On average - the Standard version is $55, plus adding the DLC with Expansions and Cosmetics is an additional $184. Expensive but not compared to EA with addons

waxen field
#

I can buy a whole game for $8

#

EA is a terrible benchmark

small mural
#

Ooh the series 7 slayer skin is actually awesome I'm gonna buy that rn

azure oriole
#

It is. But I needed a comparison

waxen field
#

Man shitty micro transactions are disturbingly normalized

polar dew
#

here it's ÂŁ7.39 for a series pack. I can buy some indie game, and if i wait for a sale, i could potentially buy other full games for that amount. Dishonored frequently goes under that price, payday 2 with a good chunk of its gameplay dlc goes under that.

not being able to use the skins on the campaign is the worst part

#

I bought Mass Effect 2 for $5

azure oriole
#

With the Rip and Tear pack - I think it can be used in Solo with the Shotgun

primal estuary
polar dew
#

OH demon skins specifically

primal estuary
#

yeah

azure oriole
#

They wanted it for MP since that is played more

polar dew
#

people actually play battlemode?

azure oriole
#

If they had SnapMap for Eternal, that would add more value

primal estuary
#

i wanna kill elvis mancubi why is that so hard

azure oriole
#

I'm not sure about Battlemode

waxen field
#

Hollow Knight is $15

polar dew
#

original doom is ÂŁ4 off sale

azure oriole
#

Bargain. Doom 1/2 is about the same on Steam

waxen field

Buy that instead of skins
