[austere bronze]

if you get enough fuel to chainsaw a heavy, cool, but don't expect it

[proven granite]

I do that when I only have one gasoline

The hammer is good because it provides an alternative source of ammo

[drowsy wedge]

you should just use the chainsaw man lol

[proven granite]

No I need to use it on heavies!

[austere bronze]

.. why?

[mystic valve]

You really don't

[austere bronze]

if you're speedrunning, sure
but then you also have specific routes you're following lol

also, another thing i dislike about tag2 is how it's the last piece to the game but it's also the easiest like what😭

[proven granite]

That’s because dumb people thought Part One was too hard

[mystic valve]

Even tho Eternal isn't hard

Like at all

[sacred spear]

I kinda liked that part of it. TAG1 was the test and TAG2 is the victory lap.

[austere bronze]

i had to start at i'm too young to die😭

[mystic valve]

I got through the entire campaign on my first playthrough without ever using the meathook

I forgot it was mechanic lmao

[proven granite]

Eternal is probably impossible on console

[mystic valve]

Tru

[austere bronze]

uh no??

you can become better on console than basically every pc player is

[sacred spear]

I imagine aimsnap/autoaim is insanely powerful at high level play

[proven granite]

Not true, on PC you can press more buttons simultaneously, aiming is easier, and you don’t need the dreaded weapon wheel

[austere bronze]

controller gameplay
https://youtu.be/B0zqciiyUBU?si=PI0CZtWAHz7pJp4A&t=35s

and this is far from the skill roof of controller lol

[azure oriole]

The weapon wheel is not that bad if you lower the sensitivity

[proven granite]

But overall Eternal is not easy, I think it’s balanced really well

How are they swapping weapons? That looks like PC gameplay

[austere bronze]

lol

you can bind weapons on console too...

and you can get reallyy good with the weapon wheel

making it basically just as seamless as normal swaps

[proven granite]

But that takes 450 hours of practice, PC isn’t that hard

[austere bronze]

i mean, it's very rare to see any player being able to perform quick swaps at that level

this was me at a bit above 300 hours lol
https://youtu.be/pZcqe2KDGY8?si=DlL98ygqzHE1SK-a

[proven granite]

For any normal player picking up the game, they are going to have a much better and easier time on PC

[azure oriole]

True, I picked the game up on console and it was a little to difficult to aim with joysticks

[austere bronze]

yes pc allows you to get better at the game than on controller, but you said it's impossible on controller, which is farrr from the reality

i find doing some things, like rocket punch cancels, to be more comfortable/easier on controller

[proven granite]

Not impossible to get good for everyone, just near impossible for any average player to beat it on higher difficulties

[austere bronze]

and what are you basing this on?

[proven granite]

I’ve talked to people in person that were struggling with the game on console, I even tried a little bit of Super Gore Nest myself and found it super hard

[austere bronze]

yeah and people don't struggle on pc?😭

[proven granite]

DOOM is all about having the least amount of gameplay limitations possible, and I found myself more limited on console

[austere bronze]

and obviously if you're not used to controller it'll be harder

the same goes the other way around

i really dislike how many people think controller is so inferior, it can be quite discouraging

[proven granite]

Just for FPS, I understand that not everyone can buy a really good PC

[candid dawn]

I played this game 800 hours on controller and I still can't do that wacky crazy swapping stuff

[wicked ridge]

I’m goated on console

[devout lintel]

heard doom is best on pc 🤷‍♂️

[wicked ridge]

Its all opinion

I mean yeah you’ll get higher fps and mods but console is still goated

[devout lintel]

i personally have never used a console, so no idea what it’s like to play with it

[wicked ridge]

Honestly console could be even better if id actually did something good and gave kb&m support

I actually don’t understand why 2016, Eternal, and TDA don’t have kb&m support

[devout lintel]

oh

have you played TDA

[wicked ridge]

Quake 1&2, Doom+Doom 2, and Heretic + Hexen all have kb&m support on console which is cool I guess

[wicked ridge]

Yeah, I have the Platinum Trophy

[devout lintel]

yeah

[devout lintel]

what's a platinum trophy

[wicked ridge]

Its the reward for getting all trophies on PlayStation

[devout lintel]

cool

btw is it true that the glory kill mechanic in TDA suck in comparison to eternal

[wicked ridge]

Its not really much of a glory kill system

[devout lintel]

it's sad that they removed it

[wicked ridge]

It just wouldn’t work with TDA as they have a melee system

[devout lintel]

oh

[wicked ridge]

TDA has 3 whole melee weapons

[devout lintel]

oh

[wicked ridge]

With possibly a fourth coming in with the dlc

[devout lintel]

they should have used the eternal mechanic, cause it's goated

[wicked ridge]

Nah, TDA just wouldn’t fit with Eternals mechanics

Its a horizontal shooter

[devout lintel]

i was going to buy it, but after seeing a review decide not to

[wicked ridge]

You should when its on discount, its really good

[devout lintel]

no flying like in the eternal huh

[wicked ridge]

Well you have a dragon and a mech

[devout lintel]

i saw the 50% discount

[fringe torrent]

I for one am glad they removed the glory kills. Liked them but we've had them for long enough, let's get some variety in, and I think the kick in the face is great lol

[wicked ridge]

I am honestly excited for the TD(lc)A to introduce more movement

Dark Ages is a game where you wanna get up close and personal while Eternal was all about speed and dodging

[devout lintel]

@wicked ridge "my wife's boyfriend just bought me Doom Dark Ages (review)" changed my mind, lol

[wicked ridge]

You should always check out like 5-6 reviews before making a choice

[devout lintel]

agreed

[candid drum]

how hard is the second ancient gods pack

[fringe torrent]

On Nightmare it's easier than TAG 1 on UV lol

[candid drum]

whats uv

i on hurt me plenty lol

[astral hamlet]

ultra violence

[umbral ember]

The checkpoint in the first acid room in gore nest master level is fucking brutal

Like wdym I have to do all that again?

[umbral ember]

Fellow console player

[candid drum]

wait till u get too the buff totem

i feel like doom eternal is a sadisistic level of trolling that no other game ever encapsulated i think gow ragnarok came close

[umbral ember]

Which one

Cuz i forgot to clarify its master level

[candid drum]

NOOOO GOD HELP U

[umbral ember]

I dont wanna fight specter pinkie in small room again

[candid drum]

man in the original doom the four pinkies near the end made me shit myself

the 2000 one they had like eight cyber demon 10 mancubuses then they threw in four hell barons for funnies

[tawny kindle]

Does anyone play this game on switch that is actually good thinking of buying another copy for on the go

[pliant crane]

nah but it sounds like its gon lag a ton

[rich nymph]

Proably Not

Despite the switches weak capabilities Doom eternal runs surprisingly well

just a few dips here and there

[tawny kindle]

It gets stable 30 i think they will eventually make it 60 on switch 2

[rich nymph]

Yep

[tawny kindle]

The controls are the killer but idk if people found better ones or ones that use gyro

[rich nymph]

Doom eternal does have a lot of button combinations which the switch cannot keep up i think

Though unless you have a switch pro controller it wont be a problem

[tawny kindle]

Yeh I would mostly play in handheld since my Xbox is way better lol

[rich nymph]

Wdym by in handeld with your Xbox. The ROG Xbox ally is the only one thats a protable Xbox. Kinda. Do you mean remote play?

since remote play is accessible through your phone. But that would require a stable internet connection

[candid drum]

i hate the guy at the end of the holt level

like why these eye balls so fucking tanky

[rich nymph]

You mean the protection eyes that cast the shield protecting the huge brain?

[tawny kindle]

No I would only play switch in handheld i play Xbox at home

[rich nymph]

k

[candid drum]

no the last boss

[rich nymph]

Base game or DLC?

[real holly]

the pain elemental

the possesed pain elemental is what funny funfun refers to

the one summoned by Samur Makyr in the final boss of tag 1 (dlc)

[rich nymph]

ohh

I just refer to him as Caco demon part 2

Even though he aint a caco demon

[real holly]

black cacodemon

[rich nymph]

i guess

[candid drum]

https://youtu.be/kPJxCvoRqE0?si=ebiRa7xv_BCBBQjQ

this not fair i took half a hr

[rich nymph]

The Eyes are doing the speel thing?

Anceint gods part 1 right?

[real holly]

yes

[candid drum]

WHAT THE FUCK HE DOING

[rich nymph]

?

[candid drum]

HOW 🙁

[rich nymph]

Are the possessed pain elemental invinicible or extremly buffed?

[candid drum]

they hurt me

[rich nymph]

But are they invincible?

[candid drum]

i didnt get that far i was right before that

[rich nymph]

ok so they are just extramle buffed way bejong a buff totem. Your best bet is to destroy the eyes with fast weapons, Plasma, acceleratiors, or High damage outputs, Supershotgun, rocket launcher, or ballista

[candid drum]

i gonna watch a guide

only boss harder then this was icon of sin cause i didnt know he had weak spots

so i shot at him like a idiot lol

I wonder what 2 is like

[rich nymph]

Icon of sin was easy for me but the demons are just a pain while fighting him. What i usally do is i try the best be killed accidently by 5 pain elementals, and 5 hell knights then i get sentinal armor and at that point his death was already assured

Like the Procentage of his death was so high he saw how he gonna die

[candid drum]

im not using sentinal armor

that cheating 😮

U play doom too feel bad not too feel good

[rich nymph]

?

Sentianl armor is part of the game there is a reason why its implemented

if i fought the icon of sin on a 1v1 it would presih

but a 1v10000 aint the easiest

[candid drum]

more motivation too suffer against it

[rich nymph]

Ok?

I dont see why using sentinal armor is a problem

[astral hamlet]

it isn't
you're playing a single player game, you play it how you want to play it

[rich nymph]

Funny funfun seems to think otherwise

[real holly]

grr how dare you enjoy the game in a manner which I don't approve of grrr

[rich nymph]

Like why not just use the features the game gives us. It’s like saying don’t use the crucible because then the game is too easy

[real holly]

self handicapping, or making the game harder for yourself is only viable if you find it fun

[rich nymph]

Stuff like that is personal Preference so why judge it?

[real holly]

i don't use the crucible, chaingun shield, lock on burst or bfg bc i like the challenge

[real holly]

yeah

problem is a lot of Doom fans get too into the power fantasy and get a superiority complex, shitting on players who aren't as good/willing to suffer as much as them

like that one reddit post from Dark Souls, some loser calling people playing on easier difficulty "low level gamers" unironically

[rich nymph]

Like there is a diffrence between, People who just started the game or just want to enjoy it wihtout too much of a challenge. Yes doom eternal does call you out for it like the too young to die game mode but thats a joke and only for funsies. But people who say you play a lower difficulty doesnt equal your bad you just have a diffrent taste in games

Out of game topic But god of war does this

There is a difficulty named i want a story and the highest i want the god of war.

That shows it

[real holly]

i mean, by "definition" your "bad" at the game when strictly playing on easy but who cares, your having fun

[rich nymph]

Exactly

[rich nymph]

In your guys opinion what is the best Finisher for a demon or boss for each game?

Eternal 2016 Dark ages doesnt matter as long as you finish a boss or glory kill it counts

For me its The Doom 2016 Spidermaster mind finisher, For the dark ages Its how Azrhak was disqombabulated with the flail by the slayer and eternal its gotta be the finisher for Davoth

[prisma dust]

W opinions

i fw it hard

[rich nymph]

You can name 1 for all games

I just named 1 for each game

[prisma dust]

ok so

for the 2016 ig its the same as you

for eternal id say like when you shove the head into the small ass demons i dont remember how they were called

[rich nymph]

The Tier 1?

[prisma dust]

or cacodemons too

[prisma dust]

yes

[rich nymph]

nice for the spidermaster mind imagine your in her shoes. Your this all powerful being see a 7 feet tall dude think gonna be ez

then your on the ground he shoves open your mouth and shoves a weapon half the size of a human in your mouth and presses shot

[prisma dust]

frrr

bro like do u remember this crazy ass turtle for the amazing world of gumball

its the same like bro u think this small ass due wont do nothing

and he ends up eating a whole cargo ship somehow

[rich nymph]

OH that indestrutible turtle that looks older then dirt and bites everything it sees?

the one scene where we go into its mind and it says BITE BITE BITE BITE TO BECOME STRONGER?

[prisma dust]

yeah

like its the same idea

[rich nymph]

i havent seen his eat an entire cargo ship though

but i think that kind of thing would do that

Name. Wanna know something

[prisma dust]

sure why not

[rich nymph]

I have a full scale of the Crucible mounted to my wall

its so tall it reaches from my foot to my waist

[prisma dust]

bro i wanted to buy one too but i forgot

[rich nymph]

I didnt say specifically "Buy"

[prisma dust]

u made one?

i found one on amazon

it was like 6 feet tall or smth

[rich nymph]

i 3D printed one

[prisma dust]

thats crazy bro

also i tried buying a helmet but it was like 500 bucks

and i was NOT willing to put that amount of money

[rich nymph]

Yeah

They expensive

[inland cedar]

Planning on picking eternal back up to try and get the platinum for it

[rich nymph]

Platinum?

Good Luck man

[inland cedar]

Thx

The remaining campaign trophies shouldn’t be hard, just will take time

The battlemode ones are the real challenges

[rich nymph]

yeah but there is a problem

You also need the 2 DLC's

The toy, album collections, slayer gates, codexes, and playing with other players might be an issue

[inland cedar]

The trophies for those are separate from the main game

[rich nymph]

oh

i ahve doom eternal on xbox and the dlc achievemnts are with the main game for platinum

[inland cedar]

iirc I got all of the albums and I think I’m missing only a couple toys and I believe only one cheat code

I’ve done the codexes and gates as well

[rich nymph]

nice

i mainly play doom for the combat and experince.

The achivements ive never touched on since i love the combat

[inland cedar]

Yeah I love Eternal’s combat

[scenic axle]

I’d disagree, everything new the dlc added was either fine or bad. It was fun to play for a first time but looking back and after replaying I can see it was just not that good

What were they thinking with the hammer 😭🙏

[drowsy wedge]

rule of cool

the most important rule of doom

[austere bronze]

sure, but when the weapon literally allows you to avoid core principles of the game while being essy to charge it becomes bad

[storm eagle]

Tag2 enemies are buggy and anyone who says they aren't have not been paying attention closely tbh

[austere bronze]

thiss^^

[storm eagle]

Compared to TAG1 it was lacking in almost every way, enemy design, combat structure, boss fights, etc. I respect the work that they put into the content but it's okay for people to not like it or think that it's peak. It's everyone's right to feel certain aspects of games are satisfying, but when presenting practical standpoints let's be real.

[austere bronze]

once saw someone say tag2 is the only good part of eternal
i will never forget that

[storm eagle]

If we're talking about combat alone, which Eternal is based upon, things like the hammer were simply crowd pleasers and just an easy addition.

[soft gull]

I mean you can beat the levels without the hammer right

[austere bronze]

yeah?

[soft gull]

well? what's the issue then?

[storm eagle]

No issue, just stating things based upon the disagreements of TAG2 being peak compared to base game or TAG1 lol

[austere bronze]

when you're deliberately avoiding a newly introduced weapon because it's so bad.. i think you can kinda see the issue😭

[astral hamlet]

Among other things, dealing with entire waves of fodder and only fodder isn’t particularly enjoyable

Nor are cursed prowler
Or screechers
Or whatever the janky hell armored barons are

[void delta]

The intro cutscene to level 3 of tag 2 is so hard lol

[fringe torrent]

Oh man I wish I could agree

[rapid mango]

Recently I got a PS5 and I bought the option of getting the first two Dooms, doom 3, 64, 2016 and eternal and honest to God it's amazing.

[queen pilot]

Does anyone play battlemode anymore?

[tall patrol]

me

wanna play?

[tall patrol]

i do

[tall patrol]

do u wanna play? im free now

[real holly]

what were they thinking about with the Hammer, Cursed Prowler, Stoke Imp, Armored Baron, Screecher, World Spear arena design and Immora design

I will say though, tag 1 isn't exactly innocent when it comes to buggyness, the possessed Marauder is SUPER buggy

[real holly]

omg thisssss

I personally have a theory that most tag 2 fans just aren't good with Eternals main campaign and Tag 1 so they praise Tag 2 for being less challenging

i mean thats fair not everyone has the time to be good at Eternal

[austere bronze]

the ballista not faltering sometimes😭

[real holly]

speaking from experience I learned Dark Ages WAY faster than Eternal, like holy shit it was way easier to get good at Dark Ages than it was Eternal

since Eternal takes more time

people don't like it

(one reason)

again in a way its fair bc we don't all have the time to git gud at a videogame

but instead of admitting that maybe the game takes longer to get good at they say its bad 🥀

the cultist base and doom hunter base difficulty curve is not for the faint of heart

took me months to get the hang of those levels on nightmare

cause I've seen other games be accepted as difficult and people move on, but not Eternal

in general though, Eternals problem is an outside thing half of the time.

If your too defensive of its difficulty curve its elitism and if your too hateful of it your a noob/skill issue

[fringe torrent]

I've never seen people get mad at Eternal being too hard, only at TDA being too easy
-# Also I tried to write this earlier and it blue screened my PC

[real holly]

idk I've just seen other hard games without this issue, where people simply go "its not for me its too hard"

thats fine too

but Doom fans are too insecure to admit a videogame is difficult for some reason, probably fragile masculinity or something idfk

[real holly]

see thats the thing, they never want to say its "hard" outright, for some reason they always dodge the word but they basically say it is

i legitimately don't know, nobody will blame you for not liking a game if its too hard for ur tastes, thats perfectly fine, ur not a game journalist ur just a normal player

but ig people are too insecure to say they are bad at a videogame and instead blame the videogame

[drowsy wedge]

i was annoyed with eternal at a certain point that it was too difficult and i just wanted to finish it without learning a bunch of shit

i eventually came back to it and learned it and it was more enjoyable but towards the end i thought it was too hard

on the first run

i also dislike TAG1 for how hard/long the levels are

[real holly]

ig Id software really didn't know how much difficulty increase Doom fans could take

[real holly]

especially after 2016

[real holly]

hey at least ur honest

takes a big man to admit "hey this is too hard for me, it's not enjoyable" rather than skipping around the point and saying "its not me, its the games fault!"

but alas, most Doom fans can't do this for some reason

[elder raft]

most gamers can't do this for some reason. actually, i know the reason. it's easier to blame the game than yourself

[real holly]

yeah

plus a lot of gamers are insecure males so even less chance of them admitting they do something wrong

https://tenor.com/view/i-am-a-surgeon-shaun-murphy-the-good-doctor-gif-16641093576353373368

DR HAYDEN I AM A SLAYER

[elder raft]

lmao

[real holly]

I AM A GOOD PLAYER DR HAYDEN

[elder raft]

sounds about right. i just know i ain't a pro at games like doom eternal so if i fuck up then i won't scream at the game exactly

i'll just sigh and go again

[real holly]

i used to be more like the individual im describing so i know

i grew and changed as a person and now just go "man i SUCK"

[fringe torrent]

It is sometimes the game's fault though like when the meathook doesn't do anything or you blood punch instead of gking, or the infamous "no target"

[real holly]

and thats it

[candid drum]

ragnarok valkeries are close too as hard as doom

[real holly]

oh totally, the game isn't perfect, but that's not my point, its when people want to say its too hard for their taste's but are too insecure to do so for some reason, instead blaming the game

[elder raft]

the game has flaws yeah. but more often than not i realize i die because of a mistake i did

[fringe torrent]

That is a real occurence unfortunately

Hey the inverse can also happen which is funny. For years I thought I was really bad at Rayman 1 until somebody discovered the game has a fundamental gameplay flaw that ruins everything (almost every port of the game has a lower jump than intended due to a porting error)

[elder raft]

had a similar thing myself. when hyper scape was still around, i struggled to even get a kill in the damn game and i thought i was just terrible at it. turns out, every gun was hitscan and the skill level for the game was insanely high

[real holly]

yeah

its all about that ✨nuance✨, realizing that each individual case requires analysis and introspection to understand properly

[austere bronze]

from my experience, not an entirely invalid theory

[real holly]

im saying that from my own experience

back when i was starting Eternal i was like "woah tag 2 didn't torture me as much as the rest i likey"

[real holly]

I didn't say it at the time, i was too much of a p u s s y

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1182151938314358856/1453922211474964642/ezgif-7da560ffcdbfcf01.gif

[drowsy wedge]

i like things that make me feel powerful and cool because its doom so i like tag2 and the hammer more than tag1

but i love the main campaign more and enjoy the mechanics of eternal

[real holly]

see this is fine bc ur honest abt it

that transparency sets u apart from the rest honestly

[drowsy wedge]

who is "the rest"

[real holly]

the people that go "no no tag 2 is actually better than the rest bc bla bla bla" when in truth the enjoyment comes from the more easy experience

[drowsy wedge]

where are people saying these things

[real holly]

you enjoy the hammers accessibility and just how powerful and easy to use it is

they show up from time to time

but its moreso a symptom of a bigger problem

the whole "its not me that bad, its GAME thats bad grr"

[fringe torrent]

I like the hammer's ability to let me one-cycle Marauders which is a huge ego boost 😌

[real holly]

yesss

[drowsy wedge]

i just play games that are fun that i like and dont really care if people say theyre bad

[real holly]

"Doom fans" and "fragile ego" are words that go along very well

[austere bronze]

learn feet ballista brochaco

[fringe torrent]

Brochaco 💔

[austere bronze]

tickle his feet

[fringe torrent]

Thank you

[real holly]

Brochaco is the original lowkenuienly

[austere bronze]

what

[real holly]

exactly

[austere bronze]

wow

[willow cove]

I like to take the marauders out with 2 well timed grenades from the belch to keep it stunned and then full auto shotgun him to death in a couple of seconds

The hammer is great too though

[real holly]

auto shotgun enthusiasts:

https://tenor.com/view/mujikcboro-seriymujik-gif-24361533

[fringe torrent]

Full auto users must live under a rock to not know about the hate, or maybe under the mayo

[real holly]

im an auto shotgun enthusiast only until i get the ssg

[willow cove]

Auto shotgun is slept on a fair bit alright

[real holly]

combined with the freeze granade it can actually kill Mancubi really easily in early game

[drowsy wedge]

i saw that video too and it is a very fun combo

[willow cove]

It is, the marauders are helpless to a nade behind em

It is pretty funny 🤣

[austere bronze]

yeah almost 2000 DPS in close range

[queen pilot]

That would make only 2 of us

Dont we require more?

Sorry could not text you then

[candid drum]

i finally beat sameer

[queen pilot]

Samur

[drowsy wedge]

samueor

[queen pilot]

For me Hardest mission in game was the Holt slayer gate

Boss fights have always been easy

On any diffuclty

[boreal shoal]

Would you guys say that eternal is a quick swapping game?

[boreal shoal]

Throwback to that one time where i was arguing on behalf of full auto cause of how good it was

[drowsy wedge]

you can beat the game without quick swapping

but learning how to makes it much easier and enjoyable

cue M1 coming in to say that quick swapping is overrated

[steel gazelle]

how do you even quick swap???? i played the whole game twice and never heard about it

[drowsy wedge]

https://tenor.com/view/anime-computer-typing-fast-typing-anime-fast-computer-typing-gif-24911240

[queen pilot]

The gun menu button

Saves reloading time

Quickswap is a must

[nimble marten]

weapon wheel binded button ALSO just swaps to last used weapon if you press without hold

[steel gazelle]

i mean, the most quick swap i did was with Q for the last used weapon

only on bossfights tho

[nimble marten]

me personally
i torture my fingers with the num keys instead

[drowsy wedge]

i just watched a video with some easy to learn combos vs all the heavy demons and then practiced them in game and badabing badaboom i learned quick swapping

i had to move my hotkeys around a bit to find what was comfortable to use as well

[austere bronze]

definitely not

[boreal shoal]

Why do you think that

It's pretty much a requirement and the first thing you get good at once you start playing at a high level

[austere bronze]

i needa start using more FA

[boreal shoal]

Every single good eternal player quick swaps

[austere bronze]

quick swaps are obviously good, but mobile turret can give slightly less to slightly more dps than pb+rocket, lock-on burst has really high dps, destroyer blade has the highest dps possible if you hit 2 or more enemies, it's just shotgun ammo that you will lose out on the most, but if you hit consistent sticky crits it's not that bad at all

if you know your arsenal well, your DPS will still be high

but it'll be harder to properly utilize it with frequent meathooks, ballista boosts, remote detonation, and such

[boreal shoal]

I've always felt like i was doing significantly more DPS after i got good at quick swapping

Not a bit better

Maybe i just wasn't utilizing my base arsenal too well

But the difference has always been massive for me

[austere bronze]

going after the raw numbers, rhe difference isn't super high

furthermore, all that higher DPS allows you to do is kill enemies faster and tunnel vision more, so if you can already maintain yourself in battle with good restacking and you don't tunnel vision, getting higher DPS won't help you that much

which is why i think that it's best to first get familiar with your arsenal and develop good fundamentals before you start quick swapping

and the time it takes to complete arenas are also hugely dependent on how you approach them, otherwise people who quick swap at the same level would complete stuff as quickly, which is absolutely not the case

[austere bronze]

at the most basic level, you just press the bind of another weapon immediately after firing one with a cooldown

e.g. shoot ballista->ssg bind->fire->ballista bind->fire repear

[real holly]

okay on my current playthrough

managed to do cultist base deathless plus one secret encounter and the Slayer gate, all without dying

lots of low health moments doe

im rusty, i used to be able to do this with no low health

whiplash is so ass, and i thought the mancubus was bad

[real holly]

okay doom hunter base was way smoother

definetly the better one of the two

[void delta]

Hey does anyone have any tips for DOOM Eternal's photomode? I'm trying to make a good thumbnail with it but idk how

[real holly]

holy moly the ARC complex Slayer gate is insanely good, I never tried it in normal gameplay (instead of coming back to it later after I get a more powerful Slayer) bc holy shit they not only throw two tyrants, subsequently introducing you to the demon WAY ahead of time, but also introducing you to a single Baron of hell and a returnign Doom hunter, so rad

ARC complex is werid bc its level design is rather basic but the music and aura.com make it all work kinda

ah i love doing the bezerk arena without the bezerk powerup

ARC Complex has a lot of optional diffuclty i appreciate, the slayer gate and non bezerk berzerk arena are awesome

[torn siren]

I just beat the game on Nightmare mode, time to try Ultra-Nightmare mode

[austere bronze]

good luck😭

[real holly]

holy shit im replaying Eternal

the marauder keeps getting buggier on each replay

not to mention the stupid enemies activating his shield thing

that single thing makes marauder not my favourite enemy as i used to think he was before I knew of the shield activation thing

what kind of super heavy demon forces me to kill every little piece of fodder

shame cause I was having fun but in Taras Nabad and the Mars Core Slayer gate the Marauder cracks begin to show

as for everything else though its fire

[astral hamlet]

ignorance is bliss

[real holly]

yeah...

another thing i realized, well i already knew but it got strengthened in my replay is that the missions feel weird, mainly due to the portals. Its relevant to say Dark Ages does this thing im about to talk about better.

The levels sometimes feel redundant immersion and story wise bc Im just always wondering why Vega does just portal me to my supposed destinations all the time instead of near them? Is there a lore explanation im missing? He can take me out of the levels no problem but he can't teleport me to the proper destination?

what this causes is levels to feel like you did little in the end

in Dark Ages, especially in Seige part 1 and 2 you are told and it feels like you actually did something?

but just in general idk why Dark Ages feels like ur actually doing things and not just killing demons for the sake of it to get a watchamagit

cultist base and doom hunter base are notable exceptions

there it's clear ur going for the hell priest and you did something by the end

[astral hamlet]

I do love how samuel starts talking about retrieving the crucible to kill "the titan"

and at that point I had no idea what he was talking about lmao

[real holly]

or super gore nest, where you destroy the super gore nest

[astral hamlet]

if we didn't know the khan maykr was awakening the icon of sin at that point, what's the point of getting the crucible

[real holly]

but in levels like ARC complex or Exultia I feel there's no reason to keep killing demons after u get what u need

ARC Complex feels like I did nothing and overcomplicated my route to get Hayden

Exultia ending with "Umm Slayer for some reason the portal isn't where u are rn fight some demons before"

the best feeling levels are the ones that feel like genuine objectives were completed and u weren't just searching for x thing

aka Cultist Base-Doom Hunter Base, Super Gore Nest, Sentinel Prime, Nekravol, Urdak and Final Sin

the rest feel like pointless demon slaughters

hell on earth LITERALLY starts with the priest being killed, and the rest being the Slayer going for the others without any intention of actually killing them? (He can't yet)

why not put the priest being killed near the end of the stage?

tldr, some stages feel pointless

[brazen echo]

As sometimes the mission is about killing the priest then getting out while chaos erupts around him

[real holly]

yeah but Vega could just put a portal

why doesn't he

Dark Ages literally solves this by making the demon slaughter itself the main goal, you do it and thats the main objective, or close to the main objective bc unlike Eternal theres less demons present, so clearing them from x area is actually a victory and not just "more are coming anyways you did that for nothing '

[brazen echo]

As Vega knows style is more important than speed

[real holly]

he a real one for that

but basically, Dark Ages spoiled me with how they handle mission objectives and story immersion

Eternal definitely has levels that have missions which immerse me into them

but it also has plenty which feel like pointless goose chases

that shouldn't be as drawn out as they are

[brazen echo]

The goose chases I don't mind

it's the locking you in a room while waiting for the 5 imps which haven't spawned yet to finish doing their pre-death workout

Which is the painful thing

Especially so in the DLCs

[real holly]

thats unrelated to what i was talking about but ok

and yeah that sucks

[brazen echo]

Last room before getting to the Seraphim was just spent wandering around trying to play spot the undead dead guy

[gusty ocean]

yep blood swamps is still one of the most fun levels imo

except the boxes

all of my homies hate the boxes

and we (YES WE) all love buffed marauder

buut we ALL hate posessed marauder

[shrewd berry]

F that guy, I hate him with all of my gut.

[gusty ocean]

i spent a solid 10 minutes killing him and then the spirit goes and posesses a doom hunter

[shrewd berry]

Mr dodger of BFG. My most hated enemy.

[real holly]

buffed marauder is the good version of possesed marauder while still being super buggy

[shrewd berry]

It’s possible to slice the marauder right? But legit near impossible because of timing

[gusty ocean]

and the buffed marauder is a 1v1 whereas the posessed one is just hell

[gusty ocean]

no i think it's not unless he's on a glory kill state and at that point you'd just be wasting precious crucible ammo

[shrewd berry]

I see.

I am so against him having that dog.

[austere bronze]

if you kill the 2 carcasses rhe possessed one is also a 1v1

[gusty ocean]

not like i have much time to kill them with the 2 meter buff guy approaching me at mach speed

[real holly]

see i do this but the bastard is so buggy

[heady jetty]

dumbass question but i just picked up the game for the first time in years, how do you get to the aresenal screen so i can spend my coins?

[soft gull]

open your map and look through the tabs up at the top of the screen

[heady jetty]

which key is the map lmao

[soft gull]

tab by default

[kindred pebble]

they really should have added a different way to kill the spirit

[untold ravine]

How tho

I don't know what other way they'd use

[proven granite]

Still waiting for a master level with a spirit-possessed armored baron

[gusty ocean]

tab

[proven granite]

Unless they already did that somewhere else and I forgot

[kindred pebble]

destroyer blade

[untold ravine]

Ballista?

[kindred pebble]

yeah

destroyer blade mod to be specific

[untold ravine]

Yea ik

So all guns that use bullets are out obviously, so is the bfg

[kindred pebble]

giving more options to eliminate the spirit is the point really

[untold ravine]

So only plasma rifle and ballista is left

[kindred pebble]

i do like that they are immune to the bfg. we do need more enemies that are immune to super weapons

[gusty ocean]

i'd like them to at least be staggered by the other plasma mod

heat blast

[untold ravine]

I think its cause the plasma rifle is able to connect to the spirit with the uhh idk what mod it was again, and cause the ballista is a single strong hitting weapon, it probably wouldn't work cause of the fire rate, so that's why they only used the plasma rifle

[kindred pebble]

why wouldnt it work

[austere bronze]

carcasses got like no health, just meathook inte the air or something

[kindred pebble]

it would be like a high risk high reward type of thing

[untold ravine]

Fire rate probably

[kindred pebble]

where if you manage to safely charge the destroyer blade and shoot it in time, it would be a faster way to eliminate the spirit

[austere bronze]

the destroyer blade does not need a buff😭

[untold ravine]

I think its cause it ain't able to connect to the spirit idk how to explain

[untold ravine]

Yea true, nerf miner

[kindred pebble]

im not talking about buffing the weapon, just throwing ideas on alternate ways to kill the spirit

the mod stays the same its already pretty good and fun

[austere bronze]

there exists many custom master levels with that, i think even with 2 possessed armored barons at the same time, but it sucks so hard

[untold ravine]

Also guys they definitely should buff the super shotgun

[kindred pebble]

though i guess you could argue that its technically a buff

[untold ravine]

Prob give it an automatic mod trust

[austere bronze]

it most certainly is a buff

[kindred pebble]

i guess, though i still do think the spirit needs an alternate way to kill

regardless if its the destroyer blade or not

[untold ravine]

Ykw they should buff the bfg and give it an automatic mod with unlimited ammo
Trust

[austere bronze]

allow like micro missiles to kill the spirit then

[astral hamlet]

Nah it totally does

It should instakill mancs at full charge

Trust

[austere bronze]

but i mean, as long as you're still only having a couple weapons/mods damage the spirit, not a lot really changes

[kindred pebble]

but that wont make sense though

[austere bronze]

https://youtu.be/lxTmkA3Whdk?si=Big3Hi-YdaCwiBbu

[kindred pebble]

but it is better than nothing i guess

[austere bronze]

why not?

[kindred pebble]

i dont know man its a spirit, im talking about this not just in pure gameplay service

d blade works in gameplay and setting/lore (not sure what the right word would be)

and d blade is just generally more fun

[austere bronze]

yeah but i mean, feels very arbitrary as to what should and should not be able to damage it

[austere bronze]

already overpowered though

[untold ravine]

Guys

[kindred pebble]

is it?

[austere bronze]

also, i think that either almost all weapons/mods should be able to kill the spirit, or only the microwave beam

[untold ravine]

I never used the freeze bomb in a walk through of doom eternal

[austere bronze]

cause there is a reason why it's the only way you can actively kill it

[austere bronze]

why😭

[untold ravine]

Only the microwave beam

[untold ravine]

Dawg idk im not used to seeing ice in hell

[proven granite]

The GPU is not used to seeing ice either

[kindred pebble]

whats the reason

[proven granite]

I would always get frame drops whenever I use it

[untold ravine]

Lol

[kindred pebble]

lowkey good that shit melts demons and your gpu

[untold ravine]

I like the Flame thingy more

[kindred pebble]

thats a different thing though no

[untold ravine]

Whenever i do the fire thingy and the hammer thingy it sounds so satisfying for some reason when i pick up all the armor pieces

[austere bronze]

makes the spirit a more complex demon, as you need to weigh the threat of a possessed demon vs the risk of killing a spirit vs killing the possessed demon but not the spirit

sometimes you want the spirit to possess an enemy the entire time

[untold ravine]

I always do that

[austere bronze]

sometimes you'll wanna kill the enemy it's abour to possess instead

[untold ravine]

I always kill the strongest to weakest when theres a possessed demon

[austere bronze]

do you do it in a "strategic" way, or do you just allow whatever possessed demon there is to roam around

[kindred pebble]

i was about to disagree but i remembered how hectic custom master levels tend to be where this just becomes a neccesity

[untold ravine]

@austere bronze
I kill the strongest one first that isn't possessed

[kindred pebble]

makes sense, which is why i suggest d blade as an alternate method to kill as that also carries risks of its own

since charging it slows you down, and it doesnt stun the spirit so you are on a timer here

just seems like a fun way to engage with the spirit more

[austere bronze]

this can be true fir the base game too, if you kill the original possessed demon and the spirit possesses a revenant without its turrets, it's essentially neutralized

[untold ravine]

Guys, how long do yall think it would take to defeat a possessed tyrant with a permanent screecher zombie effect and with a indestructible hell totem.

What kinda thoughts am i thinking.

Like 40 mins imo
(im not a great doom eternal player)

[austere bronze]

yeah but the charge is 2 seconds and you can entirelt circumvent it

[kindred pebble]

circumvent it?

you mean like make it riskless by bhopping around?

[austere bronze]

yeah or being in the air

[austere bronze]

https://youtu.be/B6LFUXtq-pQ?si=2AtCnFprxFfmcl1d

god my fov was bad there😭

[untold ravine]

That a tyrant?

I can barely see it

[kindred pebble]

yeah but doesn't that just plainly reward skill and positioning? since with microwave beam you can just circumvent the slowdown by just doing quick small safe bursts of microwave beam that reset the spirit possession timer, effectively making you take your sweet time killing it without risk

[austere bronze]

behemoth, a modded enemy which is like a larger tyrant with 2,5x the health and more dangerous attacks

[untold ravine]

Oh nah thas crazy

[austere bronze]

and it's buffstacked, meaning it got multiple buffs applied to it

[untold ravine]

Now a possessed behemoth with 5 screecher zombie effects and 50 hell totems

[austere bronze]

and i did it on 2x damage to slayer with restrictions for some reason

[untold ravine]

With 5 spirits possessing it btw

[austere bronze]

yeah, but the dblade already massively rewards it by being so good

although, i'd be for lowering its damage and allowing it to kill spirits

[gaunt pelican]

WHY IS THE HARDEST PART IN ARC COMPLES THE PARKOUR

i have been stuck in here for 10m maybe 20M

[austere bronze]

space out your jumps and dashes

and don't interrupt good momentum with a dash

pretty much all there is to it

[gaunt pelican]

thx

[untold ravine]

Lol

[untold ravine]

My greatest enemy on my first playthrough lol

[austere bronze]

relatable

dashing is more complex than it first looks

[quasi mica]

I have a question about eternal. What happened to that earth's doomguy? Like all the skins etc are different doomguys because of the multiverse understanding and doomslayer is from '93 doom's earth, shouldn't there be a doomguy from eternal earth as well?

[misty sky]

Do you mean doom marine and doomslayer

Ohh you mean why isn't there a skin for doom guy

[quasi mica]

No no like every earth essentially has its own doomguy, the one from 93 earth is doomslayer, but he also had to save the earth from eternal. So where's the eternal earth's doomguy?

What happened to him

[misty sky]

Probably taken out for lore reasons

I think the whole multiverse just messed up the lore

Especially with how the doom guy goes into the portal and is supposedly doom slayer since it isn't specifically stated it's the same entity

[real holly]

this wasn't truly implied, each earth exists but they don't necessarily have a doomguy, only one to have a separate doomguy is Doom 3 Earth

[misty sky]

But I don't really know that much lore about the multiverse

[real holly]

other earths just have the fabled guy from doom 1

[quasi mica]

So there are earths where hell successfully destroyed them?

[real holly]

there are earths where nothing happened and he doesn't exist

[untold ravine]

Or maybe he was just a normal guy

[real holly]

by deduction, 2016-Eternal Earth had no Doomguy, the guy we play as is the same dude from Doom 1

[untold ravine]

Didn't 2016 take place on mars

And some parts of hell

If im not trippin

[misty sky]

yeah

[quasi mica]

Yeah but same solar system

[misty sky]

It's complicated

[real holly]

yeah, doesn't change much

[untold ravine]

Yuh

[real holly]

tldr, doom 1 doomguy just travels alot in his slaying conquests

[untold ravine]

Wot does tldr mean

[quasi mica]

Hmm weird no? So if it wasn't for the slayer eternals earth would just lose to hell?

Get consumed

[real holly]

well, actually

yeah

[quasi mica]

And that means there might be other earths in a similar situation? What about those

[real holly]

dumbass Samur and his argent research

[untold ravine]

Maybe the eternal slayer didn't get a chance to use the divinity machine and failed to protect earth

Could be

Idk

[quasi mica]

I really hope id released that comic between 2016 and eternal

[misty sky]

or never went through the portal and died

[untold ravine]

The one from tda?

[quasi mica]

Dark ages feels rushed in role area, hope the DLC makes up for it

[untold ravine]

With the dead guys n shi?

[fringe torrent]

Weak lore but strong plot. I prefer it this way

[misty sky]

No clue man just making stuff up

[fringe torrent]

So what TDA did

[untold ravine]

Theres a dlc comin?

[real holly]

agreed

[quasi mica]

Yeah one DLC only this time around

[untold ravine]

What kinda dlc

Or did they only say dlc and didn't specify what it's gon be

[fringe torrent]

New campaign

[quasi mica]

They said it's going to be related to the praetor suit

Like the wretch and all that

[untold ravine]

Mk

[misty sky]

I think it's gonna be more based around the icon of sin who is that dudes son from doom eternal what's his name hmmm

I don't know let me check rq

[untold ravine]

Idk how the icon of sin could be doom guys son tho

[misty sky]

Noo

[untold ravine]

Still confuses me

[misty sky]

I think u are

[untold ravine]

Ik im a dumbass

[real holly]

what? The Icon of Sin is powered by the heart of the son of the betrayer

[misty sky]

Actually no the lore is too much

They changed who the icon of sin was in doom eternal

[quasi mica]

Valen's kid was returned to him as the icon of sin

[untold ravine]

The betrayer is the guy with the white armor in the main campaign right?

[misty sky]

Yeah with his lil mohawk

[untold ravine]

Yep he is

For some reason the first time I saw him i thought there's gonna be a fight between us

[misty sky]

Honestly same I thought he was gonna shoot us with the mech and run for it

[fringe torrent]

Uhhh no they didn't

[misty sky]

Yeah I just got confused by pancakes

[fringe torrent]

Oh yeah that Doomguy's son thing 💔

[untold ravine]

Pancakes of Confusion

[misty sky]

Too much pancakes but no syrup

[untold ravine]

Does each universe have one icon of sin

[real holly]

no

remember, hell is just one

while there are multiple Earth's

[untold ravine]

Soo

[real holly]

the Icon of Sin follows along with this

only one

[untold ravine]

If we already killed the icon of sin in doom 2, who's the icon of sin in eternal

[drowsy wedge]

hes revived

[untold ravine]

Do i gotta learn more about doom lore, probably

[drowsy wedge]

by khan makyr

[fringe torrent]

A resurrected Icon of Sin. Valen's son is the vessel

Just like how the Mastermind was brought back to a physical form using Olivia in 2016

[real holly]

Valen's son's actual name is "Iconic Sinbad" but they haven't said it yet

[untold ravine]

Oh ight

[kindred pebble]

i dont know about lowering its damage, since it would just de-incentive players to use it even less. (not that im saying its not strong it is a really strong weapon)

[austere bronze]

so then why not lower its damage

it wouldn't need to be by a huge amount

[spark crescent]

how do i change the game's language

the language option in the doom launcher only changes the launcher settings

not the actual game's language

[scenic axle]

If it was gonna be a balanced game then the dblade would need a massive nerf, you can just yeethook around and double dblade to beat pretty much any encounter with no skill

Dblade is incredibly overpowered, a nerf wouldn’t be bad at all

[timber narwhal]

just finished doom eternal

most worth 10€ of my life

[chilly peak]

Hello

[azure oriole]

Im gonna play my second playthrough of doom eternal now but on nightmare

[scenic axle]

Good luck!

[sand river]

I'm gonna be doing my 47 rubblater

Run later*

[misty drift]

hi I got problems with doom eternal in Epic Games

first, any overlay crashes the game. I got lucky and epic overlkay didnt pop so didnt bug my game, and I got on an online match. I got the achievement for killing with all slayer weapons in an online match, but the achievement didnt pop.

[tawny kindle]

How do I get all the secretes without videos it’s almost annoying trying to find them all

[storm eagle]

use the map

[real holly]

"what's a map"

[untold ravine]

Its a thing so you can see the things on the thing while playing on the thing

[real holly]

i thought the sarcasm wouldn't evade anyone

im so happy the funny doom comic lines came back in Eternal

Huge....Guts

[tawny kindle]

I use it but even in places where I can see secretes I can reach them

[storm eagle]

Some are quite tricky. I think I used a walk through guide for a few when I first played the game. Maka91Productions is a good one if you just need to grab one or two quick and don't wanna figure it out.

[tawny kindle]

Ty

[quasi mica]

You can get upgrades for your suit, one of them pulses your compass when you're near a collectible, one other upgrade reveals them all on the map (press tab on keyboard or select button on controller)

any tips on how to prepare on UN or Nightmare?

[drowsy wedge]

just do it

you will die a lot at first and thats fine

[gaunt pelican]

ok

[drowsy wedge]

youll get used to it and itll feel like nothing once youre done

i did the same thing where i finished UV and i was like, oh god i cant believe how hard nightmare is going to be

and then i just was like fuck it and did it and died a lot but still got through it pretty fine anyway

and now i cant imagine playing any lower difficulties

[gaunt pelican]

thx anyways cyaa

https://tenor.com/view/bye-lol-doomslayer-bye-lol-doomslayer-doom-zzz777-gif-25352056

[austere bronze]

if you can do UV comfortably, you can pretty much jump into NM

for UN, you want to die minimally on NM, and then you can practice by going one level ahead on NM on a seperate save file

[round topaz]

Doom Eternal for PC?

Is it ok to glaze Doom Eternal as the greatest game ever made?

[fringe torrent]

Glazing is meh

[little moth]

It runs at 60fps on my PS4 so it will be fine on a laptop.

[scenic axle]

I think it's great but greatest game ever made is probably a stretch

it's definitely my favorite game but that doesn't mean its the best

I started the year well

[weak helm]

@storm eagle do it on nightmare difficulty

[storm eagle]

I don't even remember what this was. It was like 2 months into me playing Eternal a long time ago. You sound like those people who are like "Yeah so, do it on UN now" lol. I'm playing RE, you do it.

[civic dust]

what is RE?

[storm eagle]

Resident Evil, 4 remake to be exact

It is slayerpalast, you have it active and go into campaign, i think tag part 2 the world spear

[storm eagle]

Yeah I know it's slayerpalast

I meant I don't remember what difficulty it was on and idc

I've played in Slayerpalast for like 250 hours

[austere bronze]

is there really?

[real holly]

we went from "marauder only in Slayer gate" in Mars Core to "two marauders and one in secret encounter"

not to mention the fact the marauder shows up INSTANTLY

[scenic kraken]

I hate marauders istg

[austere bronze]

he's pretty much alone in a very long area there though

i do however remember being stuck against the other marauder on my playtrhough

[austere bronze]

why?

[scenic kraken]

They’re like annoying to fight

[drowsy wedge]

i love fighting marauders

its a test of how clean can i make the kill each time

[soft gull]

that's one way to think of it

[austere bronze]

yup, same for me! i like trying to get clean and fast kills on them

[tender pawn]

I hate cybermancubus, I dont mind any other demon, double marauder, a trillion cyberdemons whatever, but not cybermancubus in a closed room please

[scenic kraken]

Yes cyber mancubus is so annoying

[drowsy wedge]

frost bomb + blood punch + ssg

byebye

[austere bronze]

why do you hate them😭

[tender pawn]

insane damage + skill issue of my own

I dont actually hate them, very cool design but I always struggle with them

[austere bronze]

ah

do you know roughly how the faltering system works?

[tender pawn]

yeah I know how to beat them, but I have skill issue of managing my resources and time

[tender pawn]

yeah

I cant get past the round area where you get the "crucible coin" (sorry I forgot the name) in nightmare taras nabad master levels for example, and i already have asked for help here a time ago

[austere bronze]

ohh that arena is rough😭

imo, hardest arena of that level, arguably hardest arena in the entire unmodded game

[tender pawn]

yes 😭 I need to keep trying

[austere bronze]

i think it's mainly just in that arena where cyber mancs are difficult/annoying tho

like generally they're completely fine

[real holly]

i have a love hate relationship

the single fact that the fodder projectiles activate his shield drives me nuts

[regal island]

Should I actually play Doom Eternal at some point

[real holly]

but when im fighting him alone its fine

he's pretty rad then

[real holly]

i think if you compare Taras Nabads arenas to Mars Cores you can grasp a major spike in difficulty

[drowsy wedge]

oh i fucking hate that room so much

i had so many retries on that specific room i thought it was legit impossible lol

[tender pawn]

Now im convinced I will beat taras nabad finally

[austere bronze]

for sure

[drowsy wedge]

of course its incredible

[regal island]

Guess I'm installing that later lol

[tender pawn]

fastest way to restart (basically kms)?

[austere bronze]

type kill into console and enter

if you have the console unlocked

[tender pawn]

oki, that does not interfere in any way with my game?

[austere bronze]

nope, it just kills you normally

[tender pawn]

ok thanks :D

unknown command, i think i didnt unlock my console

[austere bronze]

you need to have used the mod injector or use the play with mods option on the mod portal

[tender pawn]

ah ok thx

[tender pawn]

wait what i did wrong

[storm eagle]

oops it pinged the wrong person sry

[tender pawn]

oh ok

[candid drum]

I guess the doon eternal multiplayer dead lol

Wonder if they will ever do a doom cross over in helldiver's

[maiden vale]

That would be awesome

They should add the super shotgun if they do

[candid drum]

what if they put ammo on the mellee for more damage lol

[west rune]

[round topaz]

Is Doom Eternal worth playing on PS4?

[little moth]

Yes I play on ps4

Worth every cent

[candid drum]

[tardy pier]

Is Kaiser mod crashing for anyone else? I did things like redownloading the game and checking for faulty files and updating drivers but I’m still getting crashes

[tardy pier]

Tested another mod, it ran perfectly

[gentle thicket]

I can't unsee the lythro image of android 16 shooting a bunch of goku's

[round topaz]

Question, l Do the demons in Doom not reproduce?

I say, just create them.

[drowsy wedge]

https://tenor.com/view/james-doakes-dexter-dexter-meme-gif-1302676710766719675

[round topaz]

Yes, I say they should create them

[quick dock]

[storm eagle]

Great, thank you for doing that

[azure oriole]

Yes me

[buoyant siren]

[azure oriole]

Je crois qu'on doit parler qu'en anglais 😅

[buoyant siren]

ikr its so sad

[hasty zephyr]

I know that last word means English, the rest no clue

[azure oriole]

It's true that it's not an easy language; even I sometimes struggle with it 😅

[hasty zephyr]

Yup used to be required to take french at school. I failed horribly😂

[azure oriole]

Even I struggle in French class, so I totally understand 🤣

[hollow oak]

yeah

[hasty whale]

Hello

[full pecan]

Hi, I want to beat the ultra-nightmare difficulty. What do you recommend I do to beat it? I've made 43 attempts and I can only get past level 4.

[drowsy wedge]

gotta git gud

[real holly]

replay each level on nightmare and try to not reach low health across the entire level playthrough more than once

thats what i did at least

got two or more no low health runs of each level and subsequently forced myself to learn each stage and figure out the strats that work for me

by the time you manage to do this you'll be feeling more comfortable when doing a un run

i beat un with this strategy

[full pecan]

I could practice like that, thanks man for the help

I want to achieve it as a challenge because it seems impossible to me.

[real holly]

that's what i thought at one point

and my gameplay is nothing crazy at all

i basically just play a sort of optimized normal way with occasional tech

[full pecan]

So you can see that I've tried.

i have 109 hours in the game

[real holly]

https://youtu.be/RNcPKBCkg34?si=Qf6novmjCWBaSVF7
https://youtu.be/4ZxcCgMPK2Y?si=f6FNB0yHFz54M-L6

normal gameplay i recorded btw, after beating un, just optimizing my un strat for each stage, nothing too crazy to see here

[latent heath]

Anyone else love the soundtrack of immora’s super heavy fighting?

[full pecan]

I'm going to spend this year on it @real holly, and the p-2 of ultrakill in brutal.

[latent heath]

I love ultrakill :]

[real holly]

absolutely stellar

[latent heath]

I thought so

[real holly]

adore it

[latent heath]

Idk why but the chanting always hypes me

[real holly]

it will take u less than that to get un, it only took me some months after i set my mind on it

[full pecan]

yeah is a nice game

[latent heath]

I do have a question

Why do I feel bad for liking eternal more than dark ages?

[real holly]

idk maybe you feel the need to appease other opinions you've seen online

but you shouldn't! You like what videogames you like and don't let anyone invalidate ur enjoyment of said games

[latent heath]

Yaaaaay

Honestly the soundtrack was kinda meh but I still loved it in dark ages it just wasn’t really……metal enough

[kind basin]

Interesting since it's a different genre of metal but ok

[full pecan]

It's cheaper than dark ages

[real holly]

we all have our preferred musics

[fringe torrent]

Isn't TDA's ost more metal then Eternal's one? Eternal had a lot of EDM in it iirc

Nothing's wrong with preferring Eternal over TDA I agree

[latent heath]

Don’t get me wrong it was fitting for the dark ages but I feel like it should have had this more war ascetic into it than what it currently has

[kind basin]

Hmm like chanting?

Bells?

[fringe torrent]

Quake 4 has a cool cinematic war soundtrack

[latent heath]

Yeah or maybe gun fire as some of the notes

[real holly]

admittedly for non music heads like myself its hard to describe why we like or don't like music, so i simply go "this hits" or "this doesn't hit". Doesn't matter anyways i love both OSTs ;3

[fringe torrent]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFp6b7l3cyk
Is this something like what you have in mind?

[kind basin]

Ye it becomes apparent which is why it's good to just ask a bit further

[fringe torrent]

Isn't really metal but it's all I can think of when thinking war music

[latent heath]

Yeah thats what I had in mind just mix it with some heavy metal fighting and it’s perfect

Kinda like the song called One by Metallica

[kind basin]

Not to change one's opinions forcefully ofc

[fringe torrent]

I do agree then I think it'd be cool to have more of a cinematic touch but it already has more than Eternal had so I'm sorta satisfied

[latent heath]

The fighting style was awesome imo

I just wish we could double jump

[kind basin]

Ye it's a more horizontal game so they had to ditch the double jump, but maybe they'll replace it with smt better for the upcoming dlc

[latent heath]

Maybe a charged jump would be better

[kind basin]

Could be anything really

[latent heath]

Lets just hope it meets our….criteria

[kind basin]

We all have different criteria, what's important is that it doesn't change the philosophy of the game. It should also feed into its horizontal loop and deepen the mechanics of the game so people can further express their skill level, like eternal to an extent

[latent heath]

I’m just excited for the DLC

[kind basin]

Same

Tag 1 was great

Tag 2 was less great imo but that's due to crunch

[latent heath]

The dark lord boss fight was ok

[kind basin]

We'll see what the future has in store

[latent heath]

I mean he’s basically an oversized marauder

[woeful depot]

I think I have like

8-ish milestones left until I get Argentas Paladi, which means I need to rack up the Battlemode milestones

[latent heath]

Damn

[woeful depot]

Oh yeah and Ultra Nightmare on campaign and Ancient Gods 1 and 2

[latent heath]

I actually like the skin you get for beating TAG2 on UN

[woeful depot]

It’s a very nice one

[latent heath]

Yeah

[woeful depot]

But the problem is that I need to actually play UN to get it

[latent heath]

Lol
