In desperation use Freeze granade to give you more time to microwave

[abstract bridge]

uhh.. is this a valid reason to force close the game so my save would be rolled back to before.. whatever this is? #screenshots

ultra nightare run btw

[worn dew]

I wonder why valens death was cut from the game

[plucky adder]

I don't think he dies does he?

[azure oriole]

he ded

[plucky adder]

I don't think he is, I think his fate after the Immora battle is left unknown

[worn dew]

Apparently they were supposed to kill him off with Davoth killing him but it got cut for some reason

[plucky adder]

oh interesting

[dusky estuary]

Probably because they got rushed lmao

[rough plover]

i got doom eternal today

for my birthday

[austere bronze]

something like that

i have 1 finger dedicated to moving, and then i can free up 1 more finger for a bit, before needing to switch to another finger

if i'm doing punch cancels, i think i only got 1 finger free

i'd have to record gameplay with keyboard overlay to know for sure though

[austere bronze]

hope you enjoy!
and happy birthday!

I don't know how to progress after the part that gives you the dash. I know it's early but I don't know how to open the door after the large pit. If anyone knows what I'm talking about please let me know

It happened to me too, I don’t know how to fix it though

[round olive]

Oh no is it some sort of bug

Definitely

[round olive]

It opened once and now it's stopped

So what do I do am I cooked

Did you manage to get past it

[dreamy nymph]

Yup

[round olive]

Awesome how did you do it

[covert basalt]

Hi guys I'm suddenly having troubles with the mod launcher after it worked completely normally for the past few days. Now it just doesn't open up anymore, I get the DOOM Eternal launcher icon on my windows bar but the window itself is actually just a rotating orange circle thingy. Was hoping someone would know what the hell is going on, I really do not wish to reinstall the game that would take most of the day

[storm eagle]

That happens to me sometimes when I need to update the file integrity, then I reboot my pc and it works. Not sure if you've already tried that.

[covert basalt]

I did update file integrity but I haven't rebooted, guess I'll try. I'm mighty pissed ngl

[young mango]

Also, shot in the dark here, but disabling E-cores makes older patches more stable, it’s not likely it’d be the same for the mod launcher but it’s worth a shot imo

[covert basalt]

should probably have specified that I'm on the pc-mod-preview

[odd prism]

Vulkan launch error thingy I tried everything

My gpu can run vulkan

[spring panther]

is there any sort of debug or log or some type of shit like that

Summit bout reshade but I have no reshade in eternal

[jaunty viper]

Hi guys, can someone help me understand if it's possible and how to change the language of the game? Doom eternal bought on epic games store for pc

[real sleet]

Language changing settings probably has to be in the game's launcher, but if it skips this step and immediately throws you into the game itself, you need to change the files or use the console by pressing ~ and typing in sys_language english/russian/any supported language (no idea if it's possible to change voices somehow that way, because this command only changes the interface language, plus it's one-time so you will have to re-run the command every time you launch. Let an knowing person answer this question.)

[clear spade]

I cant stand to Press the 7/8/9 keys like its not optimized at all for quickswaping

[slow sigil]

Yeah it's meta to grow a longer, secpnd thumb for that reason

[jaunty viper]

Thanks for the help, I figured I may have to reinstall it to see if I somehow overlooked at the language settings during that phase, even though i think it's very unlikely. Also if I'm not mistaken the game kinda chooses the language on its own by using the same language OS is using, But I do have my OS in the language I want the game to run with, but it doesn't, so Idk what to do with that

Also, the game launcher should be the Epic Games Store, since I bought it on there, but it has no language settings whatsoever aside for the main language which Is obviously already in the language I want

[austere bronze]

i rebound stuff to be around wasd

the furthest i ever reach is to T/G

[storm eagle]

@tropic fable Any ideas? Nothing worked for him yet

[tropic fable]

Right-click Doom Eternal in your Steam library, choose "Manage" > "Browse local files" to open a File Explorer window in your Doom Eternal installation, and move/rename/delete the "doom-launcher-settings.json" file.
-# (This file contains the downloaded mods/idStudio assets/idStudio creations paths, as well as whether to automatically log into your Bethesda.net account (but not the username/password).)
Then, navigate to "C:\Users\[Username]\Documents\", and move/rename the "id Software" folder. (If you've made mods yourself, note that the "idStudio" sub-folder is where your creations are stored, so don't delete it.)
Then, right-click Doom Eternal in your Steam library again, choose "Properties..." > "Local Files" > "Verify integrity of game files", wait for it to finish, and allow Steam to redownload any missing/altered game files (which might end up being zero).

I don't really expect this to help, but it's worth a try. 🤷 If this doesn't fix it, try asking for help in #eternal-modding.

[...] I really do not wish to reinstall the game that would take most of the day
Verifying game files should have the same end result, but take much less time, so you don't have to reinstall the game from scratch.

[covert basalt]

it didn't work unfortunately, I mean I also already reinstalled the entire game with no luck

DOOM IS ETERNAL!

https://tenor.com/view/minecraft-movie-jack-black-steve-gif-8055239597365922282

[austere bronze]

i wonder how many people who say doom is eternal actually play the games for more than 1 month

[real holly]

I do

[frosty yoke]

I do

[real holly]

Sorry your honor in my head all that can be seen is freeze granade+lock on burst to kill an Archville on Taras Nabad

[frosty yoke]

I really need to learn something more mechanic to kill them than just destroy shield, freeze, bfg/crucible

[austere bronze]

i like to falter archviles to keep them from teleporting

they will teleport away from frag grenades, but if you falter them and then throw one, they won't

[candid juniper]

I was hoping that phrase died in 2020

The Marauder intro is goated compared to the fight

[real holly]

The fight is easy if you know what ur doing

[open tiger]

Thanks for proving me right and showing yet again that you can't read, but I should have understood this when you couldn't even read the Testaments properly.
Funny how anyone calling out your BS is immediately an attention seeker. This reeks of projection.

[azure oriole]

I do not really care.

[real holly]

They losing sleep over this

Twitching in they bed over this random argument

[azure oriole]

Lol

[real holly]

"grr I'll show them" in the shower

[open tiger]

Considering I was banned because yall couldnt come up with even a half baked counterargument...

[azure oriole]

Do you think maybe you were banned because you're an unpleasant person?

[austere bronze]

it being easy does not negate potential complaints
but i do think the marauder is a good enemy

[real holly]

What was it again 10 moths to come up with a comeback? Talk about living rent free in someone's head

[real holly]

Agreed

[azure oriole]

I've argued with many people about Doom lore in this server. You're the only one I can think of who was banned. It sounds to me like the problem is with you, not the server.

[real holly]

"everyone else is the problem not me"

[candid juniper]

Oh

This is a powerscaling debate

[real holly]

Outside of living rent free in people's heads

[azure oriole]

When I read this I assumed you were saying this with the same tone one would say, "Oh. That's dogshit I stepped in."

[candid juniper]

Yeah that was the intended reading

[austere bronze]

it's painfully often people resort to "skill issue" when someone dislikes the marauder
like yeah, it can be a factor, but it's far from in many cases

[azure oriole]

Don't think I've ever had an argument stemming from "powerscalers" in this server where the "powerscaler" in question wasn't either very ignorant, very arrogant, or both.

[candid juniper]

Powerscaling is just debate bro shit for people who don’t want to actually debate about anything tangible. Most of the people involved in it want to boost their egos by outdebating an “opponent”. Hence the arrogance.

I used to be one of those debatebro types so I understand it fairly well lol

[azure oriole]

And it's completely pointless. It's like trying to find the most intellectually-sounding way to mash two action figures together. It's debatebros spinning "my dad would totally beat up your dad" into some kind of actual debate.

[candid juniper]

Yeah

[unborn wigeon]

Anyone have any suggestions for quick swapping combos

[candid juniper]

Plus I think Doom lore is still so incomplete and vague atm

[austere bronze]

depends on your proficiency with quick switching

[real holly]

Take this with a grain of salt, it's not that serious just a random idea.
I propose there's a extra demon class in-between heavy and super heavy, something like very heavy. I'd put Pain Elementals, Cyber Mancubuses and the Dread Knight. I say this bc they are direct upgrades from the Cacodemon, Mancubus and Hell Knight, both in defense and damage output. This could also apply to the Blood Makyr which is a very much stronger version of Makyr Drone (low bar tbh).

[candid juniper]

Anyways, I’m writing my own take on Doom’s setting in anticipation of making some art down the line of it. Gonna replay 2016 and Eternal to refresh my lore knowledge.

[unborn wigeon]

I've beat the game twice on switch and I swapped to ps5 I started quickswapping at the start of the game I just got to ark complex

[azure oriole]

It's a bit annoying for this topic specifically because I hyperfixated the fuck out of Doom lore. I spent a year writing a novel-sized guide on its universe, I read all the material relevant to it back-to-front like two dozen times, replayed the games just to spend 20 minutes looking at fucking billboards to the side of a demon arena in a 2016 level. This is weaponized autism, it's like my thing.
And then some nerd will come in and say "no you're actually totally wrong lol [COMPLETELY BULLSHIT STATEMENT] is actually correct because of my biased reading of a vague exaggerated file deliberately written to be over-dramatic." Like come on lol. Be so for real right now.

[candid juniper]

The vagueness has its own advantages

[real holly]

Bc I legitimately don't understand why the Cyber Mancubus is in the same Category as Mancubus when one is clearly a direct upgrade from the other, much less the pain elemental on the same as a Cacodemon

[azure oriole]

I'm not saying I'm always right or anything. Doom lore is super vague and often up to interpretation. But I've at least done the reading, several times over. I know what I'm talking about. I don't need to justify my knowledge on this topic to some obsessed stranger on the internet. I'm happy to help inform when I can but I'm just done with the pointless, arrogant, needlessly hostile arguments from random bozos like DGA.

[austere bronze]

the only genuine upgrade here is the dread knight, the rest focus on different aspects than their counterpart

[candid juniper]

Definitely gives the setting a mystical and foreboding feel I think, but it isn’t conducive to these kinds of silly arguments

[real holly]

Doesn't the Pain Elemental have more health than the Caco plus no quick glory kill state option?

[candid juniper]

Really though I’m hoping Dark Ages fleshes out Doom’s Hell lords

[austere bronze]

true, but it has way less opportunity for high damage output

[real holly]

Ohhh that's true

[candid juniper]

For my take on the setting I gotta basically go from scratch and branch off from there. Isn’t Erebus the only confirmed Hell Lord?

[azure oriole]

The villain being a Prince of all people is really interesting.

[austere bronze]

and the cyber manc focuses more on area of denial and effective resource usage
while the normal manc prioritizes aim and deals higher damage

[candid juniper]

Not counting the Lords of Hell like the Aranea Imperatrix

[real holly]

I get what you mean now

[azure oriole]

In this case yeah, though the artbook calls Erebus an Archdemon and says there are six of them. The Archdemons seem to be like governors, as opposed to the Dark Lord being like a President.

[real holly]

I revoke my previous statements upon receiving this new information

[candid juniper]

Ah I see

[azure oriole]

Erebus is the only confirmed Archdemon but there are plenty of candidates for theories, like the Mother Demon.

[candid juniper]

The name is Archdemon

[azure oriole]

Yes. They are also called the Order of the Six.

[candid juniper]

For my story I’m going to have the Maledict be a former Archdemom who staged an uprising against the current lord of hell with armies of Hell Knights, which I divide into separate castes.

I’m thinking of introducing a Hell Knight King and/or Queen as well that the Maledict challenged for control ofer the HK tribes

[austere bronze]

okay, then i'd recommend starting to incorporate precison bolt (pb) into your combos, while continuing to generally experiment with cancelling animations
pb+ballista/ssg is the easiest form of pb quick swapping, then you can however move up to pb+rocket (this combo can be executed very fast), and eventually pb+sticky (also possible to do very fast)
here's a video i made going through some stuff
https://youtu.be/ANlVbkxkVA8?si=dTzMf3wF9MdVaGLA

[azure oriole]

Quickly switching to my guide to present some quick info:

“The immortal Archdemons, claiming dominion over the inner-most circles of Hell, rule as lieutenants of the Dark Lord. From the forsaken Deathlands to the formless Sloughs of Torment, all of Hell’s minions submit to their behest."
This is a quote from the artbook. The "circles of Hell" comment seems to be pointing to regions, so if you go by this idea, there are six primary "circles of Hell" which each Archdemon holds dominion over. The 1993 Doom game's region of Hell we explore in Episode 3 would be one of these circles, but it doesn't have an official name. I like to call it "Inferno," after the episode title, but if it has a canon name it's likely Babel.

[candid juniper]

Is the name Dis used to describe any Hell cities in Doom lore?

[azure oriole]

So a basic hierarchy would be:

1. Davoth (the Dark Lord)
2. Dark Lords (Aranea Imperatrix for the 4th Age, possibly the Maledict for the 3rd)
3. Archdemons (Erebus, maybe the Mother Demon?)
4. Likely Archviles
5. Tyrants
   Etc, etc...

[azure oriole]

Dis is referred to as a collective of "spire cities" in the artbook, IIRC.

[real holly]

Oh hey mono I was intending to ask the following question: Which Doom Eternal stages (including DLC) take place in Hell and in Sentinel locations?

[candid juniper]

Thanks

Still working on a name for my Hell capitol in the frozen 9th circle

I was thinking Babel but idk

[azure oriole]

In Eternal specifically?
The second half of Exultia as well as the Nekravol levels are in Hell. In the DLC, the Blood Swamps and Immora are also Hell.
For Argent D'Nur, the first half of Exultia, Sentinel Prime, and Taras Nabad are Sentinel places. In the DLC you also have World Spear.

[real holly]

I see, thanks

[azure oriole]

In 2016, the "Argent D'Nur" level is specifically a region from the planet of Argent D'Nur that was sucked into Hell. It's possibly the Elemental Sepulchre.

[real holly]

That I do remember

Somehow from somewhere I got that info, I think it was the Google doc for lore questions

[azure oriole]

To specify: Babel is a ruined, older Hell city that is gone by the time Doom 1993 happens. Dis, the level where you fight the Spiderdemon, is a collective of spire cities that were built on its remains.

"Babel" seems to be referring to a much larger region than just a city though, and could be referring to the entire region we explore in Doom 1993. The fact that Hell is building a place called the "Tower of Babel" on Deimos during that game suggests they see the city with some degree of reverence, and pay respect to it.

Note that the Codex entry for Tyrants (Cyberdemons) in Eternal says they are slave lords that primarily operate in the region of Babel, in its "black soul pits." So this supports the idea that Babel is not just an ancient city, but an entire region.

If I had to guess, I'd say Babel was a city that existed when the place was Jekkad, and it fell to ruin when Jekkad became Hell.

[candid juniper]

Interesting. I’m going to include the Tower of Babel in my setting both as a signal and guide for Hell’s ferryman and as a staging ground for full blown invasions. The name will be the Demon’s way of honoring the actual city of Babel of Earth.

Once I get home I’ll organize all my thoughts on a google doc

[azure oriole]

I'd say that's a fair way of interpreting it.

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1313873565145235506/1358835423534776504/image.png?ex=67f5499a&is=67f3f81a&hm=5ca7c465e5a8f6da846733401ce4aa6e6a70ec38e3e6c187a9a17cbae6cdf192&
Hell's geography is surprisingly succinct and interconnected. In the guide, I was able to (tentatively, with some theories) organize them into these areas.

If you were super dedicated, and talented in map-making (which I am not), you could probably make a somewhat reasonable map of Hell, at least the parts of it we explore.

[candid juniper]

Still need to work on my artistic abilities but once I get that down I definitely will

Taking some inspiration from Dante’s work, I’ll do a before and after of the Hell’s landscape, since there was a cataclysm which tore Hell’s landscapes apart

Everything post-Lucifer will be much more chaotic and messy basically

[azure oriole]

Mainly because, through some Codex mentions, you can see that Inferno borders the Great Steppe, and that the Great Steppe borders the Umbral Plains. From there, if you operate on the implied notion that the Umbral Plains comprises all of the Sentinel areas that were absorbed into Hell, then that means the second half of Exultia is there - you can see Nekravol in the distance there, so you can see it borders the Umbral Plains as well.

[young mango]

So like why are you still on it tho

[plucky adder]

Have we seen The Great Steppe, Umbral Plains, and Malericts circle?

[young mango]

Not that deep

Nobody except you even remembered that string of messages until you linked to it

[azure oriole]

The Great Steppe is the region Kadingir's Sanctum, the Titan's Realm, and the Necropolis (Doom 2016) is in.
The Umbral Plains is the region the final level of Doom 2016 is in, as well as the second half of Exultia.
The Maledict's Circle is a fanmade name to refer to the region of Hell we explore in Doom 3. This area is more surreal so it's hard to link it to other regions.

[real holly]

Losing sleep over it

[unborn wigeon]

I already do that anything more advanced

[plucky adder]

I think we’ve seen Inferno but idk, only ones I know for sure are Nekravol and Immora

[azure oriole]

Inferno is the area from Doom 1993.

[austere bronze]

i very much doubt you do everything in the video, as i go through advanced tech like silent bats

[plucky adder]

Ohhhh I see, so Argent D’nur is in the Umbral plains? Or did it get absorbed

[azure oriole]

I'm assuming I pissed DGA off bad in that argument and it bothered him for a while so he felt the need to try and dunk on me when he got the chance. Unfortunately for him, that argument exited my mind after a day or so, and I did not remember him at all until he brought this up.

[unborn wigeon]

Oh I forgot to watch the vid I was talking about the text

[azure oriole]

Sorry to say, but random internet strangers don't really live in my head like they seem to live in DGA's.

[real holly]

The secret to peace of mind online is to not care about online strangers

Which this poor lad has clearly not been able to do

[plucky adder]

Also how do u know all this stuff, is it in the codexes? Or implied elsewhere, cause I thought I was a good reader in the games but it seems not lol

[azure oriole]

Argent D'Nur is a planet existing on the same Earthly Realm as Doom Eternal's Earth. However, parts of the planet (not the whole thing) were absorbed into Hell during the Unholy Wars. Codex entries imply these absorbed parts now comprise what Hell now calls the Umbral Plains.

[young mango]

See what I don’t get is if somebody has 10 months to formulate something don’t you think they could’ve come up with an actual counterpoint or an insult that actually managed to be scathing rather than just annoying

[austere bronze]

watch the vid, and hit me up if you want me to clarify anything

[polar osprey]

he read some sort of lore heavy official book a few times through iirc

[azure oriole]

It's mainly the Codex files + the art book + the Collector's Edition lorebook + environmental storytelling found across the modern games. Some of this is intuition, not fact - the games don't explicitly confirm the Umbral Plains comprise all of the absorbed Sentinel regions, but it's something you can reasonably infer because the name shows up in Sentinel texts referring to the planet.

[polar osprey]

you live in his head rent free, he even seems to pay you to stay in his head

[azure oriole]

The lore-heavy book is actually a thing I wrote! There is an official lorebook that came with Doom Eternal's Collector's Edition, but it's by no means a guide and more a collection of fancy Hell text describing various things in Doom Eternal - such as confirming the Super Gore Nest's name to be "Thaxor."

[azure oriole]

I'm collecting payments, yeah - it all goes towards getting me out of homelessness, ever since I flunked out of high school to have Discord arguments lmao.

[polar osprey]

that's likely sarcasm i think?

[azure oriole]

It is. He accused me of that.

[polar osprey]

or are you actually homeless

[polar osprey]

yeah it wouldve been a bit more pathetic to become homeless becuase of doom 😭

like, more pathetic than going back at a guy 10 months later

[azure oriole]

I'm not homeless. I own a house. I have a mortgage and a job and shit lmao. I have no clue where he got any of that.

[young mango]

like again, 10 months, he could’ve like sleuthed around and formed an insult that was actually true instead of just asking people what an insult sounded like

[austere bronze]

wow, insulting Tammie while he's in the chat...

[azure oriole]

I also did not flunk out of high school.
I didn't go to college, though! I didn't decide to do that. Too much money.

[polar osprey]

understandable

i'd become a doom whale too if i had the money

[azure oriole]

Being serious I think he just wanted to insult me. I get it. I insult people too. But the insults hit harder if you actually have a leg to stand on from the beginning I think.

I dunno. I still don't really care, I'd be happy to have a real discussion with the guy if he'd talk like a normal person.

[young mango]

I mean it’s unfounded, it’s not tailored towards you, it could’ve applied to literally anybody he didn’t like

Idk why even bother atp

[polar osprey]

its funny to put a rock down and see a guy trip on it

[azure oriole]

Also to go back to this, I want to specify that this isn't an issue of reading comprehension on your part. The Codexes are needlessly vague, sometimes contradictory, and hard to parse correctly without coming to poor conclusions. I had to read them all several times to really get a handle on a few things.

[polar osprey]

or put a rope behind a door and make someone step through the door

[polar osprey]

so the point of dust of being like "if it isnt contradictory its canon" is just pure bs too, becuase it can be in some cases both contradictory and true i guess?

[young mango]

Also something unrelated, I just noticed that the reason older patches asides from 1.0-2.0 function weird is because 6.0 added ray tracing, they work differently prior to that or someshit

[azure oriole]

Correct. Doom Eternal actually contradicts itself on a few occasions.

[polar osprey]

but at that point you can just say fucking anything that doesnt sound contradictory, something like "doomguy beats all fiction", it doesnt contradict his lore, so it must be true!

[polar osprey]

it also sometimes seems very illogical from a common sense standpoint

[azure oriole]

As an example: The Codex states that the first invasion of Argent D'Nur happened on the Argentian Overlands, where Hell slaughtered the tribes and then moved on to the city of Telorum. This kicks off a timeline wherein Doomguy fights in the Unholy Wars for an unknown amount of time, before eventually the invasion of Taras Nabad happens and he becomes the Slayer.

Samuel Hayden, however, contradicts this - in the Taras Nabad level, he claims this city was the first place to be invaded by Hell on the planet, and thus Doomguy became the Slayer as soon as Hell began invading the place.

[polar osprey]

like surely the priests arent that fucking dumb to put their life on ONE DUDE who isnt really anything in particular, and think he's a match for a guy who has been killing demons for eons, and has been infused with a shard from the direct son of fucking god

[azure oriole]

As far as canon goes I prefer the Codex over dialogue. If dialogue contradicts the Codex I will take the Codex as fact and the dialogue as unreliable, unless something else points to the opposite.

[polar osprey]

and surely the khan maykr or whoever gave them their power can afford them more powerful guardians

[azure oriole]

Another example is the timeframe of Eternal in comparison to 2016. Marketing material claims Eternal happens a few months after 2016, but Elena Richardson says the year 2163, indicating around 14 years since 2016 happened. There's also a texture indicating the 30th anniversary of the ARC, even though the ARC was founded when the war with Hell began.

I take Elena's timeframe as fact, the marketing material as bullshit, and the 30th anniversary texture as a throwaway joke.

[azure oriole]

Do you mean their thing with the Guardians? To be fair, the Priests are somewhat banking on the Slayer never even finding their Guardians - they were hoping he'd never make it to Sentinel Prime to take out Grav's Guardian for example. The jury's out for Nilox's, though.

[polar osprey]

do we know whose guardian was nilox?

or did he just not get one

[azure oriole]

Nope. But he did get one, as indicated by Nilox assuming he's invincible only for the Slayer to hold up his Deagic Talisman before ripping his head off.

Eternal seems to begin shortly after he's killed Nilox's Guardian, but we don't know who it was. I like to think it was a Titan, and the Slayer just killed it with the ruined Atlan in the Fortress of Doom. But that's purely headcanon.

[polar osprey]

well, he only had a shotgun, but idk if that matters for the doomguy

oh wait, ruined atlan

i cant read for shit goddamn

[azure oriole]

Can't blame you. Reading the Codexes for me meant a lot of Adderall.

Actually writing the guide also meant a lot of Adderall.

[frosty yoke]

Fire theory, it would make sense why his Atlan is out of service but we may get answers in TDA regarding the Atlan so I am not considering it a final answer

[azure oriole]

So is making the game.

Honestly I kind of just need Adderall to do this shit lol.

[azure oriole]

It's definitely not. All the Sentinel stuff is subject to change with TDA.

[candid juniper]

Out of the two we see their guardians are pretty powerful though

[polar osprey]

i mean, one of them just became a normal enemy you see a ton throughout the game

[candid juniper]

Doom Hunters were made to specifically combat the Slayer and the Gladiator is potent as well

I think the Boss Doom Hunter has more health than the rest iirc

Maybe was boosted with arcane magics by the Priest

[azure oriole]

I imagine the ones you see later are just copies being made. The Slayer only kills Ranak, but he doesn't stop the facility from operating.

It's likely still producing Doom Hunters.

[polar osprey]

the factory must go on 🔥

By the way, for anyone who read my help request, it is no longer necessary since I just straight up asked for a refund on epic games and bought it on steam since the language options being non-existent was just untolerable

[unborn wigeon]

@austere bronze Is that stuff possible on controller💀 if it is how long will it take to get used too and is there a training area with infinite ammo like that

[azure oriole]

no

if you try to do that on controller, your controller explodes

[unborn wigeon]

Hmm why does the keyboard not explode

[austere bronze]

everything shown is possible on controller

there isn't any specific training ground, but there is an infinite ammo cheat code

if you have it, you can go into somehing like urdak and practice where you spawn in

[unborn wigeon]

Also I tried the punch stuff and it didn't really work

Like in the video ot like cancels the reload animation like swapping guns but when I tried it it didn't work do you use melee right after you shoot or right as you reload

[austere bronze]

after punching, you need to press the bind for your weapon again

(except if you wanna punch cancel sticky bombs, but that's hard to do)

[polar osprey]

it is very much possible

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0zqciiyUBU

[unborn wigeon]

But how long

[polar osprey]

this is controller

[unborn wigeon]

It don't let me watch coz parental controls

[polar osprey]

damn

but basically insert really cool gameplay here

[unborn wigeon]

Ya

My game closed i prolly should just download it

[frosty yoke]

I just started my UV run and finished Hell on Hearth, this is starting to get interesting

[spring panther]

i could just reupload it as a discord attachment

[unborn wigeon]

Hmm ok

[plucky adder]

Ohhh I see

[steel cargo]

I forgot, who’s the male duct again?

[azure oriole]

The Maledict is a demon lord that Betruger fuses with sometime during Doom 3's events. It/he is the final boss of the Resurrection of Evil expansion.

[steel cargo]

Oh I remember now

Thanks

[dire roost]

hello guys

I need some help with the pc mod preview thing

[austere bronze]

hi

[dire roost]

should i talk about it on #community-support ?

[fringe torrent]

Yes

[steel cargo]

@azure oriole do you think it’s possible that the slayer had the Unmaker on him when he was found on sentinel prime and that’s where the Maykrs got the inspiration?

[azure oriole]

Maybe. It's also possible the Unmaker itself was an Unmaykr that had been corrupted by Hell after they took it. Who knows?

[azure oriole]

Only if you want to be ignored

[dire roost]

ok uhh

its just that when I select the pc mod preview version and I launch the game I dont have any progress

Like i gotta start from the beginning and do it all over again?

[violet zealot]

Yeah that’s normal

[azure oriole]

You start from zero (speaking of xp and milestones)

[dire roost]

ohhh thats normal then

[azure oriole]

All your unlocked cosmetics will remain

[dire roost]

ooooo okay got it

oh and isn't there any way to change the fov via the console?

like in the normal version of the game

[azure oriole]

You can “transfer” your level and milestones to the mod preview but it requires an external tool

[dire roost]

Do you have a link for it?

[azure oriole]

https://wiki.eternalmods.com/books/0-idstudio/page/copy-save-profiles-to-sandbox

[austere bronze]

if you're playing on a modded version, yes:
hands_fovscale "x value, 0 being normal"
hands_offsetx "x value, 0 being normal"

[dire roost]

alr

thank u guys

[austere bronze]

you can do hands_offsetz and y too

and use negative numbers

[dire roost]

like using XYZ thing

[dire roost]

ok, got it!

[uneven zinc]

how do you get slayer makyr skin??

[azure oriole]

Buy the ancient gods 1

[vivid patrol]

can someone help me i have a problem that when ever i run doom eternal it switches my monitor refresh rate to 60

[uneven zinc]

already do it they dont give it

[real holly]

Huh

my second playthrough of Horde Mode had so much less deaths than the previous one, up until the VERY last arena in the Holt yeah that stayed the same

[azure oriole]

Reconcile entitlements in the settings or contact bethesda support

[nimble marten]

the mf dog in dlc2 level 1 wont jump into the mf altar

[blissful moth]

Hi. Why the DLC OST are not on Spotify if they aren't composed by Mick Gordon?

[plucky adder]

Bethesda stingy

Im not sure either tbh, maybe cause it’s still doom eternal

[bright lodge]

is anyone at all able to help me out with my last two battlemode milestones?

I play on ps5 and I only have slayer missions to do, I’m down to help if you need smth as well

[polar osprey]

i got it by just playing through the game i think

[torn wyvern]

I got it via deluxe edition smh

But im using the burning slayer

[dreamy nymph]

it’s a Ancient Gods Part 1 thing

I think

[last osprey]

I have a question, how much do I have to play Doom Eternal to get the Crisol sword?

[random badger]

First of all, what is a Crisol sword? Second of all I JUST BEAT SUPER GORE NEST MASTER LEVEL EXTRA LIFE MODE ON NIGHTMARE, AND IT TOOK ME 4 DAYS, WOOOOOOO!!!

[azure oriole]

Se llama crucible en ingles

And you get it on taras nabad

[last osprey]

And you get it on taras nabad?

[last osprey]

Okay perdon

[azure oriole]

Te perdono pero que no vuelva a pasar

[azure oriole]

Level 9

[last osprey]

Okay, esque soy nuevo jugando al Doom Eternal y no tengo mucha idea del juego, se que es de matar demonios pero uno de mis amigos me lo recomendo mucho

[last osprey]

Okay, gracias

[azure oriole]

Era broma

[last osprey]

Ah😅

[frosty yoke]

The second DOOM 2 Slayer skin is great imo, silver plated armor, gray and white camo pants, black boots and the redesign of the equipment launcher and the blade are simple but great. I played a lot with the Scarlet Praetor suit but now, I think that the DOOM 2 silver skin is going to be my main.

[austere bronze]

patriot skin best skin

[frosty yoke]

What skin is that ? Because I didn't saw this name. You mean the fat DOOM guy with beer cans and american colors ?

[gritty mica]

Yo

[austere bronze]

the first skin here
https://youtu.be/rJddOwQct7o?si=wGHiyhMgqL7BB_ka

[frosty yoke]

It's cool but I wouldn't use it

[gritty mica]

Agreed

[austere bronze]

L

[gritty mica]

It's just the slayer with a texture of the American flag on him

[frosty yoke]

You can't just say that a skin with the colors and the name of the country you live in is the best, and it's just a base model reskin, nothing much than that

[gritty mica]

I'd say a good skin is the maykr skin or the classic slayer

[austere bronze]

the skin got a decent bit of flamboyancy

and its arms are the best

when you play the game, all you see is the left arm, and the patriot skin got the best left arm

those burning things, it makes the punch animation look very smooth and cool

[frosty yoke]

The Classic slayer is very good in terms of the time that you need to grind it. The 3 DOOM 2 marines are very good classic skins but you need to grind the Horde mode. I am not into Makyr skins but the skin for the slayer is worth it imo.

[gritty mica]

Agreed, the demonic slayer is also a good one

[frosty yoke]

Demonic Slayer, Scarlet Praetor, Classic DOOM skins, Keen skins (for me they have the best blade), Unicorn Slayer. The list goes on.

[gritty mica]

Those are good, now if it's just a recolor with a few added cosmetics then it's not that good

[frosty yoke]

Yes, the remodels that I talked about so, Classic (DOOM 1/2), Praetor (Including horde mode skins) and Keen are great and clearly outclass any recolor except maybe for the normal praetor

[rugged flax]

I like the sentinal

[frosty yoke]

I wish they gave us an achievement in Sentinel Prime which gives you a Night Sentinel Skin

[torn wyvern]

Are there any skins for guns that are like
On fire

For that doom slayer skin for deluxe edition

[gritty mica]

No sadly

[torn wyvern]

That sucks ngl
I need to find a good shotgun skin

[austere bronze]

there are some splendacious modded shotgun skins

[torn wyvern]

If I dont find anything good then I'll reach for mods

[dreamy nymph]

patriot slayer is good

it’s more than just a recolor

[gritty mica]

Get a classic shotgun skin

[torn wyvern]

Thats what Im thinking ngl

Either this or Hellforged

Ah fuck hellforged is for battlemode

[polar osprey]

theres mods that let you use hellforged i think

patriot slayer skin is recieved in one of the cycled events i think

just gotta level up during one of the events and stuff

[dreamy nymph]

should be during the summer I think

[real holly]

I just use skins that were given to me by any type of "tough" achievement to pat myself on the back, like Phobos, Golden Bounty Slayer, the Red one from Horde Mode, Biker Slayer, etc. I literally yesterday got the Biker from Horde mode so I'll be using that one for a minute

Aa for guns I use Gold, the Dragon skin for Ballista and Prator for Heavy cannon and Shotgun

[austere bronze]

i usef to use a few of the skins you get as a reward on MLs

but then i realised i don't like them lmao

[real holly]

Sadge

Before these though I always liked the Wetland warrior skin, the green™ is cool

[steep mirage]

I feel so defeated.. they say practice makes perfect.. well.. we've all only been playing this game for like.. what? 5 years now? ..I must have AssBurgers. i'm definitely no idiot savante. just an idiot... I CANNOT. FUCKING. GET PAST EXULTIA. ON GODDAMN ULTRA-NIGHTMARE!!! I swear to Christ it's giving me a fucking ulcer.

If you are reading this, track my IP address and disembowl me, i am not ok

[real holly]

I got through it two days ago, I advise having micro missles

[steep mirage]

WHAT

micros?!?! really?!?! wtf!

[real holly]

And ofc using the flame bench plus the equipment rune as much as possible

Yes I use it on the Hell Knights

[steep mirage]

dont i need scope to take out points on enemys?

hmmmm..

[real holly]

Yes but you can do that with the granade from the shotgun

[steep mirage]

well clearly what i've been trying hasn't worked, maybe i shall apply that

[real holly]

Stickybombs remember

[steep mirage]

very true

i read somewhere to devote early to the sticky shotgun perks, then apply points to others. this true?

[real holly]

Sticky shotgun is goated

[steep mirage]

word

[real holly]

Then get Micro missles

Then get the equipment rune for more armor fragments

Micro missles are great for Heavy Demons in early game

[steep mirage]

sigh i thought i was warmed up enough to finally get past this, i've died twice on the final battle encounter right before the exit portal for the 5th time now.

i think i get too amped up and can't breath and concentrate properly

it's crazy how much this game is like breathing almost

[real holly]

It took me some time to realize the scope is good but micro missles are better for early game

To deal with heavy Demons

[steep mirage]

Thank you cobble, i will definitely give that a spin on my next go at it

[real holly]

Remember to have the equipment rune for more shield fragments

[real holly]

Gladly, just know that right after Exultia I died to Cultist Base lmao

[steep mirage]

haha, i would just feel great knowing i finally got past exultia tho it feels like a hex put on me almost

i read that ultra-nightmare, the early levels are actually the worse because we have no upgrades 😦

seems very pliable

[real holly]

Mostly yeah

[steep mirage]

Anyhow, cheers, thank you for the advice and calming my hyper ass down

❤️

[real holly]

[austere bronze]

on top of stickies, the heat blast, blood punch and explosive barrles can destroy weak points in the early game

unless you're quick switching with the pb, there's honestly little to no reason to use it

[crimson yarrow]

I used to beat the 2 hardest MLs on nightmare but I got rusty at this game

Should I go back to Ultra Violence for a while?

[polar osprey]

meanwhile i beat doom eternal twice on hurt me plenty and im already doing kaisercampaign

[torn wyvern]

I prefer quickscoping tbh

[austere bronze]

just try and see how it feels

[real holly]

I do too but for early game it's safer to have Micro missles

[torn wyvern]

Im like super annoyed cause of ultra violence

I tried pushing the secret encounter at gore nest

And i lost 2 lifes like an idiot

Cause I been trying to kill the enemies with barely any ammo

[polar osprey]

just did the escalation encounter in kaisercampaign

safe to say, i was shitting myself

[peak torrent]

as a non-Eternal player, i was curious

guys, rank every single weapon mod

S+
S
A
B
C
D
F

[polar osprey]

apparently u get an extra life in it, or something

and no i did not get the one u find at that same arena

or not, apparently i just had an extra life lying around

ohh right that one

[austere bronze]

you can't really rank them like that

[polar osprey]

all of them have a use based on the situation

theres a spirit?, use a micro beam, any other situation?, dont use a micro beam

[peak torrent]

i've seen some ytubers rank them from worst to best so ig that compelled me to ask this

but what's a mod without a specific use, that you use the least often

[polar osprey]

https://youtu.be/FXEotwk3YtE

im kinda ass lmao

[austere bronze]

a spirit doesn't always mean mwb is the right course of action, and mwb has its uses outsidr of spirit killing too

[polar osprey]

yea yea

[austere bronze]

for me, the only mod i consider useless is the mobile turret

but that changes depending on quick switching proficiency

[peak torrent]

mobile turret sounds extremely cool on paper, but in game has very minimal uses

[peak torrent]

pretty sure mwb is the only way to kill a spirit

[real holly]

Only one I can adequately rank is auto shotgun being bleh

I'll give horde mode this it rewards knowing every weapon mod

I hasn't used the turret in many a year but since I didn't have quick switching capabilities I said "fuck it" and mowed down Tyrants with it

[peak torrent]

i think you use up even more bullets with the turret

[real holly]

I never use the turret bc no shield and quick swapping makes it ireelephant

[peak torrent]

heh, irrelephant

[austere bronze]

they die automatically at the end of battle

sometimes it's best to let them possess a weakened demon

[real holly]

On some "okay I'll follow Low Tier Gods advice then"

[austere bronze]

or if they possess a caco demon for example, it's actually weaker than a normal caco

[real holly]

See don't they target heavier demons?

[austere bronze]

because it'll spend its tokens on getting closer to the player, not shooting their projectiles

[real holly]

The kisser

[austere bronze]

so they essentially become a meathook point that follows you

[peak torrent]

can you control them to possess the desired demon?

[austere bronze]

it's good for finishing demons, it's just free ammo lmao

[real holly]

I thought the spirit would always go for the heavier demons to posses

[austere bronze]

not exactly sure how their possession works, but they can absolutely possess an arachnotron without its turret for example

[real holly]

This is I know but since I don't find myself losing too much ammo bc of chainsaw usage it's not that useful, but if you are reserving chainsaw for let's say un or extra lives mode panic then sure

[austere bronze]

you want to minimize the required amount of chainsawing as it puts you in a disadvantageous position

and sometimes it can be hard to find a fodder demon, or there's no good opportunity

if you see a spirit is about to possess a mancubus, arachnotron or revenant, destroy their weakpoints and the spirit becomes irrelevant

[dreamy nymph]

revenant? irrelevant (see it rhymes)

[austere bronze]

xd

[real holly]

Real

[real holly]

See im too busy microwaving it to do this

If only the Slayer could hold another gun on his other hand

One for Microwaving and one for ballista

[austere bronze]

let the spirit possess the demon

[real holly]

Nooo I cannnttt

[austere bronze]

it's dangerous to microwave them, so let them possess a weakened demon and make them irrelevant

[real holly]

Also the possesed demons regain health right?

[austere bronze]

no, they just take less damage

[real holly]

Ah good

[real holly]

Like yeah but wouldn't it be easier and less troublesome to get rid of the spirit altogether

I don't remember a time I died while trying to microwave a spirit

And I have plenty of deaths but that circumstance isn't one that has killed me

[austere bronze]

depends

if it's about to possess a demon with weakpoints, i would almost always let it possess them, but just destroy the weakpoints

but then sometimes it can be completely harmless to microwave the spirit

and sometimes you want the spirit to possess a demon, like the caco

[austere bronze]

that sounds quite fortunate lol
microwaving a spirit is very dangerous, you can use none of your movement tools and your movement speed is slowed

i'd assume even if it hasn't directly caused you to die, it has done so indirectly

[real holly]

Idk maybe

I just dash a lot and move left and right alot

My deaths in Eternal ALWAYS fall under the category of "surprise" or "jumped by whole enemy gang"

Or "close quarters high damage enemies help"

[austere bronze]

interesting

something very common is that you're worn down gradually during battle

not paying enough attention to hp is also very common

[real holly]

RECENTLY I've managed to become better at hp attention

Mostly bc of my newfound love for the equipment rune

Shield ❤️

[austere bronze]

noice, it's something i gotta become better at honestly

[real holly]

Sorry but in my eyes three fodder demons+flame bench+equipment rune is neuron activation for me LOOK AT ALL THOSE GREEN SHINY THINGIES

[austere bronze]

the vast majority of my flame belching is done to heavies

or i think at least lol

[polar osprey]

what do i need to improve?, obviously better aim, and better movement ig

(this is kaisercampaign, i only had the AR, plasma cannon, and shotgun)

[austere bronze]

it's very early into the campaign, so there is less stuff to say

but, here's my input
use more equipment
dash much more, but avoid unnecessary double dashing
you move around neatly, but as soon as you start killing one enemy, you focus too much on it, leading to loss of spatial awareness and opportunity for the demons to deal more damage

lowering you sensitivity could help with aim

[polar osprey]

yeah i noticed i moved around very well at one of the arenas

[real holly]

Okay this i know, using multiple fodder demons with the faster reload time for the flame bench is useful to use all the opportunities for more shield

Like I use it for both fodder and heavies but there are a lot of fodder demons in the arenas

[torn wyvern]

So apparently the elevators are the highest tier enemy in this game

I had to load the last checkpoint 3 times because of them already

[polar osprey]

you are having some shit luck ig

[peak torrent]

feels just like "bottomless pits are the strongest and most annoying enemy in 2016 Ultra Nightmare"

[torn wyvern]

I fell off the elevator to the cannon in the arc base shit 2 times

[real holly]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/585809871891333132/1359163740301299772/Screenshot_20250408-1050442.png?ex=67f67b5f&is=67f529df&hm=6501e5eac199559c71dda34336e8cc439e2fdc9d9cf0802eb9b9e4db635f6c16&

Doom Eternal level ranking as of now

[austere bronze]

what do you base this ranking off of?

arena design, encounter design, art?

[real holly]

How much fun I have on each level on the gameplay with the intended level of Slayer power

[polar osprey]

so its rated on fun

[real holly]

Yes

[polar osprey]

i personally really like cultist base and DHB

[real holly]

I want to like them but in Nightmare I feel like a glass cannon in those levels

And I only play on Nightmare so no I won't lower the difficulty

[austere bronze]

looks pretty fair then

[patent wedge]

I hate tier list, they always are wrong or suck

[real holly]

That's not very nice

[patent wedge]

Good, if I could ban tier lists, I would

[real holly]

A simple "i disagree" would have sufficed it's just some images of the stages no need to get so angry

[polar osprey]

ok so lowering my sensitivity, not ganging up on a guy once i lock on him, get equipment fiend next ig, and dash more

i can also just disable the "hold dash to double dash" thing to disable most double dashing

[real holly]

Internet users picking the most hostile option instead of just saying I disagree for some reason

[patent wedge]

https://tenor.com/view/manic-laugh-laugh-manic-inside-welcome-to-the-internet-gif-26910208

[austere bronze]

yes, but i more meant using your equipment sooner after it comes off its cooldown

[polar osprey]

ah

but im trying to find the right moment to hit all the guys instead of using it on one

[real holly]

You should rank them yourself, do a "correct" one in your eyes

[patent wedge]

Then I would be wrong lmao

[austere bronze]

you should just use the flame belch at the first best moment

[patent wedge]

And then we’ll endlessly debate on who’s right and who’s wrong

[austere bronze]

even if you hit fewer demons

[polar osprey]

i see

[real holly]

The paradox

[real holly]

Actually no I can see your Tierlist and go "I disagree"

https://tenor.com/view/starship-superheavy-it's-uncanny-how-easy-it-is-its-uncanny-how-easy-it-is-blobifi-gif-16316140391300780954

[patent wedge]

Oh jeez, im tapping out of this one. Honestly, initially, I wanted to say that I disagree then I went on a different tangent lmao.

[real holly]

Society if mfers just went "I disagree" and continued on their day

https://tenor.com/view/mundo-feliz-onetreehsll-world-if-gif-14071235670792471304

[austere bronze]

i disagree

[real holly]

I disagree

Have a lovely day

[strange gale]

you don't need to think about it that much

[real holly]

Uhhhhh just use BFG 👍

[strange gale]

equipment fiend cooldown reduction takes flame belch from 12.5s to 9s which isn't that important

[polar osprey]

ah

[strange gale]

having it on cooldown as much as possible is a better idea than waiting for a cluster of enemies that may or may not show up

[strange gale]

flaming hook also counts towards this

[real holly]

That's why I always after flame benching swap to stickybomb shotgun for the fodder and then back to other guns for bigger guys

[polar osprey]

well yeah, i also get that at cultist base so not really an issue

but since its kaisercampaign, all the runes i have are equipped at once, no 3 rune limit or whatever, what rune do i get next?

well, two runes next

i got flight and the blood punch health one

[strange gale]

i'd say get equip fiend still

[candid rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/doom-doom-slayer-doom-guy-doom-eternal-crucible-gif-19831598

[strange gale]

it isn't literally a passive buff but if you always have everything on cd, it practically is

[granite sandal]

Wanna see a cool edit

https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNdN2TqWd/

I thought my fyp betrayed me

[ember plinth]

Where is the slayer gate on cultist base?

[polar osprey]

its in the same place where u have to knock down a big cross thingie to cross through

[ember plinth]

alr

[torn wyvern]

This reminded me that I actually have doom slayer in fortnite on my account

Peak

[azure oriole]

when the doom is turnal

[stiff bronze]

How do people feel about the boss of TAG part 1? I... Really wasn't feeling it compared to the rest of the game. Kinda boring? Just curious how everybody else felt about

[azure oriole]

People like Samur's boss fight but I do not. I think it's shitty. Much prefer TAG2's boss fight.

[austere bronze]

i like it, except the 1 minute caco phase

it quite well accentuates certain parts of the combat loop, and it's difficult while still being manageable

opinions are mixed though

[stiff bronze]

Fair enough! I can see that being the case, and I think my being crap at shooting games is part of the problem lol. I made it work, but I wasn't really having fun ^^"

[candid juniper]

I didn’t mind TAG2’s final boss but I definitely liked Samur more

It’s a fitting end to a overall very difficult dlc (at least to me).

[azure oriole]

I'm one of the apparent few who actually enjoy Davoth's boss fight.

glorified marauder

[candid juniper]

I’m sure some of the more knowledgeable people here can tear it apart on a gameplay level, but my reaction after beating Davoth was mainly just “that was okay, but feels a little anticlimactic”

[clear spade]

Tag 2 fight is peak, samur was just hard but for bad reasons in nightmare… the only thing I despise jn the whole game

[candid juniper]

I played TAG2 right after TAG1 so the difficulty shift was very noticeable and jarring too

[fringe torrent]

I liked it too

[azure oriole]

at least with the gladiator you can shoot him on the back

[azure oriole]

On a gameplay level it's, like, okay - a bit cooler when using a couple mods to improve the experience.
I contend that in terms of tone, atmosphere, and general presentation it is a genuinely incredible climax to Eternal, IMO. The music is probably my favorite of the franchise.

[kind basin]

I will never do a un attempt on tag 1 again after completing it, it's for muh brain.

[austere bronze]

how is it hard for the wrong reasons?

[candid juniper]

Yeah the presentation is solid

[kind basin]

But regular nightmare is more maneagable

[unborn wigeon]

Im pre-ordering doom dark ages

[azure oriole]

Dont do it

[unborn wigeon]

Why

[azure oriole]

Under The Mayo doesnt approve it

[unborn wigeon]

??

[azure oriole]

Under The Mayo isn't excited for DOOM: The Dark Ages

[unborn wigeon]

I am

[stiff bronze]

It looks so hype though .w.

[unborn wigeon]

Ik

Im a broke kid now

[austere bronze]

ye, i'm honestly quite hopeful

i've gotten more optimistic with time lol

[unborn wigeon]

36 days 4 hours 41 minutes 20 seconds

I should have got premium

You get the dlc as soon as it comes out

[azure oriole]

What was the point of sending me a video of you buying the game???

[unborn wigeon]

Cause you said bad idea and why not

[polar osprey]

you are misunderstanding him, misrepresenting his point

he said he isnt excited for tda as much as he was for eternal

and probably never will be, since eternal basically gave him a whole ass carreer

and tda will probably not live up to that

he said he is intrigued, interested, curious about tda, not that he doesnt wanna play it

[azure oriole]

Can confirm that, as excited as I am for TDA, it isn't as much as I was for Eternal.

But Eternal was at a different time in my life. It's not because of TDA.

[polar osprey]

and for mayo it just kickstarted his whole carreer

also had a podcast that had hugo in it, and had a part in the 666 update

[azure oriole]

he also took part in the tag 2 shithole

[kind basin]

C'mon he since apologized, why hold grudges for all those years

[polar osprey]

the hwat

[polar osprey]

bruh

yeah, true

[kind basin]

Wut

[azure oriole]

such a wholesome community indeed

[polar osprey]

didnt know about a "tag 2 shithole"

[polar osprey]

and you're somehow making it better by holding a grudge for a few years for something someone apologized for?

[azure oriole]

he's an hypocrite

[kind basin]

Yeah outside of here it's not good, but that's with every video game community

[polar osprey]

ok, this wasnt really about the character of mayo

[azure oriole]

I don't really want to attack the guy's character because I do not watch his content.

[rugged flax]

neither do I

[fringe torrent]

Bio checks out?

[real holly]

In character even

[rugged flax]

the certified dummass?

[polar osprey]

ye

[azure oriole]

u weird

[rugged flax]

he who says

[polar osprey]

neither do i becuase that wasnt the point i was trying to make, and it was completely offtopic

[polar osprey]

but also, since you really dont like mayo, why listen to his word about tda?

[azure oriole]

Yeah I don't even really know what he did wrong.

[real holly]

Mfers can change their mind

Who would have guessed

[azure oriole]

it is true
english speaking people cant recognize sarcasm on text

[polar osprey]

that was bad sarcasm

who?

[polar osprey]

then why'd you say to not buy tda becuase mayo told you so?

arent you the hypocrite right now?

[fringe torrent]

I will say that TheDoomSlayer666 was being sarcastic about the Mayo vs TDA stuff, you guys need to hop off

[azure oriole]

no you cant just recognize when something is told as a joke

[polar osprey]

aight

[polar osprey]

well i can now

[fringe torrent]

But continually dragging the conversation like he did is not helping his case lol

[rugged flax]

nope

I wrong

[kind basin]

Not again, first the powerscaling now this

[fringe torrent]

This is the second time this has happened to you today huh

[real holly]

See this is why it's better to have someone complaining about Cultist Base on UN

Every waking hour of the day

(me)

[kind basin]

Yeah I'd rather not clog up the channel with drama either

[azure oriole]

guess its time to take discord as serious business from now on

[rugged flax]

yes

[fringe torrent]

I can't lie though it was pretty funny to see everyone rile up against you lol

[real holly]

Anyways is the Microwave beam useful outside of Tag 1

[fringe torrent]

Yes, Horde

[austere bronze]

yes

[real holly]

Okay outside of Horde and Tag 1

[austere bronze]

yes

[rugged flax]

yes, sometimes

[real holly]

Is there any situation outside of Horde mode where the turret is the best option

Bc quick swapping makes it obsolete

[rugged flax]

falters Ion know

[real holly]

I was going to say Icon of Sin but then I remembered the shield stops all damage from their punches so your going to have to have that on as much as possible

[austere bronze]

no

[rugged flax]

honestly I never use turret

[austere bronze]

ig there is 1 possessed marauder 1 cycle with it, but meh

[real holly]

Turret is the shiny gold candy it looks awesome and useful but in reality it's just pointless

I guess it can feel cool to mow down a Tyrant with it but quickswapping better

[rugged flax]

on cheatcodes it's fun

[real holly]

Also speaking of which quickswapping against Tyrant with the ol reliable ballista+ssg, is that a good idea bc of the fact the SSG deals more damage up close? Like will the Tyrant do more damage close range?

[rugged flax]

quad overkill go brrr

[real holly]

Maybe it's better to do rocket+ballista quickswap on the Tyrant

[azure oriole]

mb+mm+full auto

[rugged flax]

mb?

[austere bronze]

ssg has increased damage against tyrants, but it also has a damage cap at its usual max damage (1600), and the tyrant is a fat boi, so you can get max damage from the ssg on a tyrant quite far away

[real holly]

Huh didn't know that

I just need to get the range of the SSG down

[rugged flax]

just get behind the tyrant

[real holly]

I can never tell when most of my pellets hit from mid range

If only the demons had healthbars

[rugged flax]

would look cursed

[azure oriole]

serious sam 4 proves that

[real holly]

Any complaints or problems I have with the Tyrant are in fact related to the possesed one in The Holt

[young mango]

rocket ballista with BATS barely exceeds pb rocket in terms of DPS, ssg ballista has higher DPS than either of those

[real holly]

Next time I do a no death run of that level im looking up a multitude of tutorials/playthroughs of the holt for a solid strategy on how to kill this guy

[rugged flax]

I just yell LUPERCAL! and it works

[normal dagger]

I just hope they add mod support for console because that's all I can play Doom on

[shrewd bough]

Mobile Turret’s useful for mowing down Hell Knights, Dread Knights and Barons of Hell, as it keeps faltering them, softening them up for easy kills if not outright killing them

[normal dagger]

I use it sometimes

[violet zealot]

Honestly, I doubt the will at this point

[normal dagger]

Yeah that's the sad thing

[violet zealot]

‘Least there’s millions of other games you could play if you ever got bored, I guess

[normal dagger]

Yeah I got RE2 the remake and im trying to 100% all the doom games

[violet zealot]

Neat

[austere bronze]

here is that overly complicated but cool marauder combo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TAMLYzdUgQ

it activates fast destroyer blade (shown at the end) and uses a ton of silent bats

[clear spade]

Because the fight is bullshit,hard for the sake of it unlike others boss fights that are actually designed cleverly. Im not saying its not manageable, just bullshit but Thats my opinion 👌

[strange gale]

"hard for the sake of it" is an empty criticism unless you define what you mean by that

[austere bronze]

the samur bossfight accentuates other aspects of the game compared to other bossfights
and i don't really see how this bossfight in particular is "hard for the sake of it" lol

the samur bossfight puts much more emphasis on movement and strategy (in how you deal with enemies) than other bosses

arguably the most important things in eternal

[strange gale]

if by "hard for the sake of it" you mean "more concerned with difficulty than fun", that's a start although i wouldn't agree

removing samur from the arena entirely would make no difference

that's my biggest problem with the fight, he doesn't do anything

[strange gale]

i think the reason this take is so common is that fps players don't really venture outside of their genre and so they only ever play proactively

whereas samur and the green light enemies require a reactive playstyle

fighting games naturally have these rhythm shifts from proactive gameplay to reactive and back again, due to matchups and player tendencies

most players don't have great movement or damage output and so they're forced to respect possessed enemy movesets a lot more than those who do

respecting an option the other player or the ai has means you're inherently playing reactively to some extent

if you nuke them before that option becomes relevant though, that means you're playing proactively again

[clear spade]

I didnt have Time to explain and I still dont sadly + my english is not perfect so Mb. What I meant is that i move difficulty in Doom , i love the challenge the hardest things in the game offer, but in this boss fight the lasers/buffed enemies/very bad attack pattern from Samur and an interesting arena ( I can understand that you can like it tho) compared to the rest of other boss arenas ( that are not flat like gladiator ) makes it a bad boss that feels rushed
Its my only criticism about this game , btw funny that you Said something about only playing one genre as its absolutely not the case for me ( mostly play 2D games and fighting ones )

[clear spade]

I dont agree, I just think the arena is akward for these enemies and they are either doing nothing running after you or attacking you from
Both side because of the design of the arena again wich is not very fun

In comparaison the 2 marauders fight was very cool for me because the arena was in this case Well made and was itself a tool against them to move and use swaps properly

[patent wedge]

You see this one occasionally, a player runs into the Scenario and plays Simon says by standing still waiting until they see an opportunity. The same way they reacted to the marauder

Honestly, I think people are just overwhelmed and don’t know how to respond to things which makes sense for this game since it’s so unique

[tame topaz]

It finally dawned on me how in their want for the Chaingun to be able to 'kill high value targets with ease' (which doesn't fucking work at all in practice), they forgot the most important aspect of a fast DPS weapon in a Doom game, and it's why the Chaingun (and Plasma) primary sucks.

Stunlocking.

The Chaingun would be SO much more viable if it could stunlock.

How the fuck do you have weapons with high firerates that DON'T stunlock.

[clear spade]

I think doom 2016 is a good starter on this case, no one should start with eternal as 2016 Teach the basics of movement with less mechanics ( should be played on nightmare tho )

[torn wyvern]

I started with eternal on my xbox and it was hell on normal difficulty

Then I didnt play for around 2 years
Bought Doom 2016
Finished it
Went to doom eternal on ultra violence and im aight

Also can someone explain to me what the hell happened to Samuel Hayden

Did he just got ripped by demons

[minor pumice]

Yes, because after he took the demonic crucible, he thought himself invincible, but at the end the demon destroyed him

[torn wyvern]

Idiot

[gritty mica]

No he turned into samur maykr

[polar osprey]

in doom eternal he was cut in half

[gritty mica]

But his consciousness became samur maykr

[austere bronze]

started a ng+ playthrough with some custom difficulty, and i am getting unbelievably rekt in the first arena lol

and just because of that i immediately beat the arena and the one after it

[austere bronze]

holy fuck, just finished hell on earth

took 2 hours😭

[polar osprey]

fuck are you playing, a cbt arena?

[austere bronze]

essentially
unbalanced randomizer, 1,5x ai haste and damage to slayer, 0,8 damage to enemies, no destroying buff totems (virtually every arena has 1) and no air control, chaingun shield or ice grenade

gonna do a full campaign playthrough like that

but starting maxed out ofc

[polar osprey]

what the fuck

[austere bronze]

not too bad generally

it's just some arenas that absolutely fucks me over

the last arena forced me to go outside lol

[meager igloo]

Started a nightmare run the other day and I just started doom hunter base and now I’m scared

[minor pumice]

Sorry, I dind't play the DLCs so I don't know really well the lore after doom eternal, but in the main story he was cut half by the demons

[gritty mica]

Yeah fair

[meager igloo]

If you can get the dlc then do it’s 100% worth it

[minor pumice]

Obviosly, I will get them

[meager igloo]

Nice

[real holly]

Very close to getting the Lux Slayer Skin from Horde

Got the full Biker set

[minor pumice]

Good but the goal has to be the Gold Bounty Lord skin... It's beautiful

[real holly]

Idk why it disappointed me, still good

[real holly]

Already got it a week ago

[minor pumice]

Ah ok good

[real holly]

Since I only play on Nightmare it was bound to happen

My ego won't let me go any lower than Nightmare im afraid

[minor pumice]

I play it in nigthmare too

[real holly]

You can use a particular tag 1 rune to get more extra lives

The one that lets you get them back from the enemy that took it from you

[minor pumice]

TRUE, in fact I tell myself that I'm the doom slayer so nothing can stop me in front of a challenge

[real holly]

That's how I got the 20 extra lives achievement

[real holly]

"why won't you give up"

"Because he never did"

Shows video of pro player on Super Gore Nest Ultra Nightmare

[minor pumice]

I couldn't say it better

[real holly]

The last achievements for Horde mode milestones I have left are the ballilionare which im really close to beating and the gold bounty one which I still have some time left before I do beat it but im on my way

[minor pumice]

I use it in every match of horde mode

[real holly]

I do wonder in general when you unlock the box of something in Doom Eternal does it just mean the skin or also more bc I know sets have different things in them. Like does the Lux Slayer thing have just the Lux Slayer or is there more? Bc I remember already having some skins when I started the game that came with some other stuffs

[minor pumice]

Only the lux slayer skin

[real holly]

The Biker Set has more than just the Biker skin

[minor pumice]

Only the rewards that you can unlock playing horde mode are skin pack

[minor pumice]

Yes but only that skin and the doom 2 skin one have other things

[real holly]

Yeah

I do wonder what more rewards there are left in Horde mode bc I already got the emote and Biker altar

[minor pumice]

I use the icon of sin podium from the pack of Doom 2

[minor pumice]

After them nothing

Only the milestones

[real holly]

My favorite

[minor pumice]

And after them nothing again

[real holly]

Great!!!!

[azure oriole]

The lore explains that Hayden was the head of the Earth resistance force. Shortly before Eternal, he led an ill-fated charge against Hell's forces called "Operation Hellbreaker." We don't know what exactly that was, just that it was a military operation that ended in his body being mangled.

[real holly]

Unrelated but the UAC in Mars Core in Eternal, are they like the bad UAC like belonging to the same group that lady in the holograms is?

Or are they a remnant of the original UAC

[azure oriole]

This is actually a pretty vague plot point and I've flip flopped between it.
My current belief is that this is the Mars UAC, which hasn't joined the Cultist UAC, but is still somewhat hostile towards the Slayer.

[real holly]

I agree ngl

[azure oriole]

Ultimately I believe they're not the Cultist UAC because the people working for them seem to be fighting the demons with the artillery and shit - on top of that, one employee says something to the effect of, "He said to let them in!? Why!?"

[real holly]

Yeah

[azure oriole]

I believe that's pointing to something like his boss being compromised or something off-screen, or giving up, in a fight against the demons.

[real holly]

I do like the idea of the Mars UAC still surviving

[real holly]

Yeah

[azure oriole]

They don't seem very, uh, "good," though, like the ARC is. They seem definitely opposed to the Slayer, likely because of 2016's events.

[real holly]

Yeah idk why the guard on some "you can't get through" before pissing himself and giving up

[azure oriole]

What basically happened to the UAC before Eternal was a mad grab for resources by Hayden and Ranak. Ranak exploited Hayden's distraction with the imminent energy crisis and used this to seize control of vast swaths of UAC resources to usurp as the Cultist UAC. What they weren't able to grab was basically absorbed into the ARC. You can see UAC logos on several supplies, walls, etc... in the ARC Complex for example.

[real holly]

https://tenor.com/view/true-trent-reznor-trunt-nine-inch-nails-triangle-factory-gif-7375753110760786939

[azure oriole]

This race for resources was within the first year of the war, before the Super Gore Nest was built and Hell's forces mainly consisted of Ranak's Cultist Base-manufactured combatants.

But the Mars UAC is somewhat different. It's like a different branch. I don't think Mars UAC was of interest to the Cultists after 2016, and the UAC is already a corrupt and evil organization, so it's not like they're of much help to the ARC at that point.

I would imagine they're keeping to themselves on Mars, defending it and maybe supplying soft aid to the ARC.

(Remember: Humanity isn't just limited to Earth in the modern games. It's implied we've succeeded in colonizing several planets and moons in the galaxy.)

[real holly]

Huh I don't know we left the solar system in Doom Eternal

[azure oriole]

2016 has some flavor text on placards or whatever, advertising life on other planets. In Eternal they specify, when referring to religion, more than just Earth:

Similarities can also be drawn to multiple pan-galactic religions, indicating that the Maykr's influence was not limited to Argent D'Nur, and that over eons their influence has spread across the galaxy, and potentially the universe. Some imagery is akin to religious icons in the Orion-Cygnus arm of the Milky Way, an area which includes Earth.

The wording here implies Abrahamic religions are not just present on Earth but across the Milky Way, which would make sense if humans have spread that far.

[real holly]

I worded myself wrong

I mean like humans not other civilizations

[azure oriole]

I believe TAG2 also has some flavor text advertising off-world life?

[real holly]

Did humans leave the solar system

[azure oriole]

Yes, I'm talking about humans too.

[real holly]

Ah I see, interesting

[azure oriole]

I don't believe there is any reason to presume they mean aliens in regards to the Milky Way comment. I think humanity has just become a very vast species, much like the Sentinels before them.

[real holly]

They have teleportation that has vast range so that alone should be noteworthy

But I do wonder if they got as far as they did bc of Argent or not

[azure oriole]

Almost certainly because of Argent, yeah.

I’ve been grinding at super gore nest master nightmare, and I decided to take a break to play AG1 (UAC Atlantica) on ultra violence and it feels… easy? I died like 10 times on my first run and on a harder difficulty I lost one 1-up

can anyone help with battlemode trophies i only need to complete two trophies for platinum, i’m playing on ps5

[plucky ingot]

Anyone got any pointers for doom eternal

[austere bronze]

if you can send gameplay, you'd get the best help
otherwise it's general stuff like swap weapons, chainsaw, always move, use your entire arsenal, use equipment often, etc

[plucky ingot]

Ok

Thanks a lot

[nimble marten]

early game in my experience:
remember to chainsaw often
get the hang of when it recharges
stay the flying fuck away from imps
fireballs easier to deal with than a rabid close range AI
maximize use of the basic shotgun's grenade mod to increase chances of staggering enemies and allowing you to glory kill
flame belch + cryo grenade + shotgun grenade on 2+ fodder enemies = armor and health pool to come back to

[plucky ingot]

Thanks

[austere bronze]

i'd say it's a waste of the ice bomb to just use it on a bit of fodder

[plucky ingot]

That was my main problem with imps

[nimble marten]

honestly fair
i often find myself getting mauled through my armor which is why i cryobomb fodder
but belch+shotgun grenade is more resource efficient

[plucky ingot]

Ok

[polar osprey]

oh yeah fuck fodder

[nimble marten]

god I hate imps
i hate garfield rat so much

[plucky ingot]

I just got it last night so I haven’t really played it that much

[nimble marten]

and prowlers are just
imp but tanky
most annoying enemy to exist fr

[violet zealot]

if you don't mind spoilers, I can give a tip for one of the mini-bosses

[austere bronze]

they don't really do anything

and the meathook "stuns" them

a ballista shot staggers

[nimble marten]

yeah
its just seeing them move aroundwhile i'm swarmed is like getting lag-players in a multiplayer game

[strange gale]

tanky (citation needed)

1 sticky headshot staggers

[nimble marten]

moves around like a fucking bitch baby
teleports at the exact moment my mouse button goes down hard on them
i hate that so much

they're not actually tanky
they're jjust bitches

[strange gale]

i don't really get the hate

[azure oriole]

I always found them to be rather harmless

Meathook super shotgun wipes them out instantly

[strange gale]

i guess it's because most of the enemies in de are jobbers that just stand there to get shot and prowlers deviate from that?

[nimble marten]

no its bc i used to play pvp games where players basically behaved the way prowlers do
the hate is me specifically i think

[real holly]

I like Prowlers bc I can predict where they will teleport and just quickly kill them

[somber pulsar]

hey guys, can someone help me with milestones in battlemode? And after that just play some rounds normally for fun

no problem hf

Yes, may 15th

Ooooohhhhhhh snap

Thats close

[echo cosmos]

My brother just tried playing doom eternal for the first time on “I’m to young to die” and died instantly

[gritty mica]

[wraith scarab]

Does clearing TAG 1 or 2 on ultra nightmare simulataneously grant you the nightmare rewards? I'm asking about the golden weapon skins namely

Like could I get the ultra nightmare slayer skin as well as the gold weapon skins in a single playthough? Or would I have to do two playthroughs, one on ultranighmare and another on nightmare?

[vapid trout]

I would imagine it would

The only difference between those two difficulties is that ultra has only one life

[wraith scarab]

Haha yeah I know, I've completed the whole game on Ultra nightmare. I'm on a new steam account so I'm trying to fast track regaining my progress

[young mango]

Yeah

[torn wyvern]

Yall talking about nightmare meanwhile I have problems with this shielded fucker on ultra violence

Any ideas how should I defeat him

I usually try to 1v1 him but hes FAST

He just keeps on spawning this stupid ass dog

[peak torrent]

i know people usually use ballista to stun him when he flashes green, then PB, and repeat

shooting him while he has his red shield will guaranteed make him summon his dog

players, am i right?

[dreamy nymph]

this server has so many geniuses…

[peak torrent]

guys i beat ultra nightmare like 50 years ago that makes me a profressional doomer

[real holly]

I had a dream I chainsawed a spirit

[gritty mica]

Epic dream

[real holly]

My subconscious has a deep desire for the ability to chainsaw anything in Doom Eternal

[gritty mica]

Even the titan?

[real holly]

Fucking Davoth

Or Icon of Sin

[gritty mica]

Epic ideaa

[austere bronze]

i wish so bad you could chainsaw possessed stone imps

they're so bad and so annoying

just let me chainsaw them

[peak torrent]

due to Stone Imps being immune to chainsaw, we can therefore conclude that they are, in fact, Super Heavy demons

[tiny arch]

hi, can someone help me with some MP trophies on PS5?

[austere bronze]

nah, only possessed variants

all possessed demons are immune to being chainsawed

[peak torrent]

super heavies such as archies, barons, and marauders are also immune to chainsaw

[peak torrent]

oh

missed that

i wish so bad you could chainsaw possessed stone imps

mb mb

[austere bronze]

no worries

[spring panther]

yes

[real holly]

I was playing TAG 2 on Ultra Nightmare and got stunlocked by a random Blood Makyr from afar in Reclaimed Earth

The demons took the chance and bam death

[young mango]

The speedrun brainrot is getting to me I was about to ask “reclaimed has blood maykrs?”

[real holly]

Lol

[austere bronze]

i like when reclaimed earth hasn't been reclaimed

when it is an unreclaimed earth

[real holly]

Final Sin moment

Or Hell on Earth if your feeling stickybomb-y

Also on my last UN World Spear run in that one stupid purple goo micro arena with screechers and Mancubuses I realized you can stay out of the goo in the damaging fog, just use the flame bench with the excessive fodder+equipment rune. Makes it ten times easier

Im growing more fond of World Spear over time

But uhh the Hammer, a mechanic I like using but can't say is good

[austere bronze]

you can get mods that rebalances the hammer

[real holly]

True!

I might actually do that, could be the first mod I get thus far. Horde Mode Hammer was so much better

[austere bronze]

there's one that makes it take 4 charges, halves its damage/radius and makes it only hard falter instead of stunning

[real holly]

So far im doing TAG 2 UN for the skin, but also trying out the "easiest" Ultra nightmare run

[austere bronze]

if you're using the mod portal, just start using the sentinel axe though, lmao

it's way more fun

[real holly]

If I do TAG 1 I'll survive up till the Holt 🙏

But first TAG 2

Need to stop dying in random situations in Reclaimed Earth

The problem with UN isn't dying its the time spent before getting another shot

It's a lot of time

[austere bronze]

yeah

un is doodoo

[real holly]

It's weird bc I've reached this weird spot where I have like 4 difference gold skins and pretty much all milestone rewards outside of the UN ones

It's like UN is calling me on some "c'mon, beat us and you'll feel incredible, you'll be able to say you 100% Doom Eternal even... Do it..."

Bc milestone wise yeah the battlemode ones are left obviously but that's a different ordeal, it's moreso a thing of asking people to help you with it

Actually there's no way I'd 100% Doom Eternal bc of Master levels

Phew

[shadow vessel]

Yeah im probably never gonna do ultra nightmare

[maiden jungle]

I put in a few attempts recently but the first half of the game is too slow for me to wanna redo it a bunch of times

plus I'm so used to having my full arsenal. out of all things, I find myself missing the ballista soo much

[austere bronze]

well i mean, the ballista is the best weapon in the game

[onyx veldt]

BALLISTA

[tall monolith]

I suck at doom eternal .. I just found it yesterday and I keep dying

[tall monolith]

Lol

[stiff bronze]

Me toooooo. You just gotta get used to the flow of the game though. Learn your tools.

Just finished TAG2 and compared to TAG1 it was so much easier! I only got held up in two places I think. The double Marauders with the buffer zombies, and The boss himself. Trying to convince him to release the wolves is a pain in the arse lmao.

Seriously fun stuff, and now I'm even more hyped for Dark Age. Well worth comming back.

[wraith scarab]

Does the chaingun shield still protect you while mantling? If the shield is deployed before mantling it will disappear when the mantle animation plays, but the shield will reappear immediately after as if nothing happened; are u vulnerable during the mantle or...?

[azure oriole]

i think it does protect you even while mantling

[real holly]

can someone explain to me how the saving throw rune works in ultra nightmare

[young mango]

Only works once

If you were to use it though, be tactical, any damage dealt to the player in any capacity that would be otherwise lethal will activate it

And that includes having your energy shield up, which is a complete waste because you wouldn’t have actually died

It’s the main reason I think saving throws useless even if somebodies playing with everything at their disposal because chances are a player that’s selecting the saving throw rune isn’t gonna just abstain from the on command god mode weapon mod

[strong halo]

what difficulty?

[simple idol]

@somber pulsar i get the aurum

Thx for the tip again

[simple idol]

Tag 2 have the Hammer,is Broken

In tag 1, you need to completely master the combat.

[stiff bronze]

Oh yeah, it feels like I went from playing DPS to tank lol

[simple idol]

The worst thing in tag 1 is samur

He is the hardest boss in doom eternal

[kind pier]

yo

[gritty mica]

Yo

[kind pier]

for slayer v slayer and battlemode is it ALL mods

[gritty mica]

Fr

[kind pier]

New doom eternal player.
Do you have any suggestions on how to NOT get cornered by multiple tanky demons? I got cornered by 2 whiplashes and a marauder and wasnt able to recover.

[oblique topaz]

meathook jump pads

Im a beginner lol

That's fine, you won't suck forever!

The check points make him more manageable than some of the more serious hoards imo! I assume it's different with higher difficulty though. I'd prolly still be stuck on him if not for checkpoints...

[austere bronze]

there's no 1 solution, as it can be because of many different factors

[graceful current]

wait i didnt realise that david levy started uploading official ost releases for TAG

will david and andrew make videos for all of them?

"This track and full OST are out now on all major streaming platforms... in a parallel universe. 🪦💀" 😐 😐

Stupid boss with bad design, very disapointing

In nightmare at least it wasnt fun

[azure oriole]

i agree

[nocturne lynx]

Not hard when your competition includes a slightly beefier version of an enemy type, a beefier Marauder, a boss whose shield disintegrates after being sneezed at, and a boss that you just shoot repeatedly from a decent distance.

This fucking goddamn game pisses me the fuck off, why can't i just be as good as the rest of you.

fucking cant even get past world spear on ultra violence, meanwhile everyone and their goddamn mother clears shit on ultra nightmare, i'm but a lowly peasant.
