Why Is DOOM (2016) SO AWESOME?!

Huuuuuurrrrrrrr I'm bored, man. I want to play a video game but I've already played everything on my shelf. I need something new, something fresh! Wait a minute, what is that? Devil? Come on man. The whole thing about killing demons and fighting Satan that was old like 15 years ago, I mean, I need something better than this. I played it a million times, great game, but killing demons. Don't know. It's just an old Doom concept, it's a franchise I haven't heard of in a long time. But what was this doing up there? I don't remember buying it or receiving it or hearing any news about its release.

Is this just like a cheap reboot made to cash in on people's nostalgia? Come on man. That's so fucking lazy, I mean...man...they're probably just resurrecting old game franchises because they've run out of ideas and need to get money out of people somehow. I don't know, I guess we'll check it out. What kind of stupid pro skater Tony Hawk five garbage is this going to be? Well, let's see what this is all about. I already feel like I'm getting bored. What's going on? (Are you getting nervous yet?) ERGHH Oh Jesus, oh thank God. Oh, this game is going to kick ass, isn't it?

Yes, DOOM

2016

certainly kicks ass. Kick as much ass physically possible. Now some of you might be thinking and asking, "Get your act together man, why did it take you so long to cover DOOM, play it, and make a video?" And there's a really good answer for that: Shut The F*ck Up. I'm surprised I didn't learn this game sooner. So thanks to all the people who constantly pestered and harassed me to play it. Yes, even you Reykjavik. And I'm even more impressed that DOOM

2016

was not only able to take the series in the right direction. But it could also occupy a good place within the ultra-competitive first-person shooter market.

Imagine how difficult it is to breathe life back into a series when the last entry came out in 2004 and possibly wasn't even in the same genre. The original game DOOM 3 played more like a horror game from what I remember, but DOOM 2016 is a whole different barrel of demons. Perhaps the passage of time made us forget what the Doom series was about. What defines it. What about the new Snap Map feature? That was good? Or multiplayer? Does this game really recapture the magic of the originals in every aspect? Was the transition to modernity hard or soft? Well, let's beat up some demons, let's run with healthy speed And chainsaw our way straight into this.

When I think about the most influential video games in this now multi-billion dollar industry, I think they are games like Pong, Super Mario Brothers Mortal. Kombat Street Fighter 2 Half-Life 1 and 2 Metal Gear Solid World of Warcraft Grand Theft Auto 3 Ocarina of Time Bioshock Dark Souls And of course, DOOM But in addition to Pong and Half-Life and possibly Bioshock. You may have noticed that each game I listed is within a series that saw unprecedented success and is still going strong to this day. Prior to 2016, DOOM had essentially fallen off the face of Mars. I mean, everyone who has played a video game knows this.

But for many years, I feel like players viewed DOOM as a series that was past its prime. That had its golden moment in history, and was nothing more than a once-influential game that now belongs in a museum. Ironically, Duke Nukem and DOOM were going through a hellish development period simultaneously. And when Duke Nukem Forever hit shelves, it was... ...it was just SHIT. So after that colossal mistake, fans are no doubt looking forward to the next one. At the delivery of Doom we were quite nervous. I mean, a lot of things had changed since DOOM was at the forefront of gaming.

Could this iteration really fit the current market? Could he do what he did 23 years ago and still be fun and successful? Duke Nukem and DOOM were titans of their time who couldn't seem to return to mainstream relevance. But all that changed when the Demon Nation attacked. It's pretty mind-blowing that Bethesda and id Software joined forces to make this game and yes, their software is definitely not made up of the same people from 1993, but it's the same company, you know, it's part of their identity. Better way to recreate the eternal magic of old gold than through the original?

Company that did it. It's like having Mark Hamill return as Luke Skywalker 34 years later in the Last Jed. Oh God, no, no, not like that. So instead of talking about the history of Doom yadda yadda yadda I'll just let the man on stage summarize it for me and in 1893 a small software studio named after made a first person shooter game. called

doom

that changed gaming forever First-person shooters became a phenomenon deathmatch was born and

doom

became a cultural icon To this day, doom is considered one of the most important and influential games in the history of our industry, but the foundation of any Doom experience past or present is, without a doubt, combat that focuses on three things: badass demons, big damn guns.

That's how it is. And moving very, very fast. I think once people heard this brief description, they were totally on board and it seemed like Bethesda's software knew what people were looking for, the potential for this game to be a complete failure, a total failure and an insult to Legacy of Doom was huge. , but it didn't turn out that way at all, so if you were confused about what kind of tone this game would use, your confusion is alleviated in the first 40 seconds, Doom letting you know that it won't pull any punches. instead, it throws them Yes, right in their faces if you want to tell the story.

It's pretty simple and we'll talk about that later, but you wake up on Mars in the middle of a demonic invasion and have to crack some skulls. break some kneecaps and send those wretched creatures screaming back to hell. Often video games will have overly tedious tutorials that stop you every 5 seconds to let you know how to press the a button. With tons of exposition and explanation of the mechanics and it can really hum. on, but not here, much like the movement of the game itself. Doom gets you up to speed with its mechanics very quickly and doesn't waste your time.

Each weapon has two firing methods, and halfway through the first mission you're given an attachment. These nice and cute field drones and the fatal guy thank you, you piece of shit. In this tutorial you are taught how to climb, explore for secret items, hidden weapon caches, etc. And every time you pick up a new weapon, you get this cool animation showing you'll get familiar with the layout. In your first couple of fights, you should instantly understand that standing still is death. I wish you understood how the game should be played. After a 12-year hiatus and one of the most iconic gaming franchises. of all time the importance of a tutorial that teaches you everything you need to know in such a short time.

It can't be underestimated, less tutorial means more demon slaying. So you find your ass sexy. A power armor full of nostalgia that is certainly not for pussies. You are introduced to a robotic voice. You push that hook and monitor out of your face and continue on your way. You grab a shotgun and get to work. After shooting you. Through a load of enemies you reach an elevator and this is where the game really begins. I am willing to take full responsibility. Banks of the last 24 hours, but the unit must understand our interest in your world. Everything has clearly gotten worse.

Get out of there Fuck yeah, hit those damn boys, those piece of shit, boys. You don't know you're doing it, guys, honey. These first five minutes are a perfect representation of what we can expect. For the rest of the game, Doom Guy feels just as badass, if not more so. So for this generation of gamers, then he was 1993 gamers playing through Doom is an experience that gets you fucking ready to go ready to kill and nothing gets you more excited than watching the Doom guy solve every problem with his fists or an endless stream of bullets.

And it's because Doom brings up all these radical feelings and emotions from the player that lead me to my next point. I apologize in advance for the copious amounts of swearing and testosterone-fueled ranting in this video, but I can't help it, man. The music and tone of this game excites you like no other, so Bethesda, are you telling me that the premise of this game is that I am the most feared man alive known to demons as the Doom Slayer and I get furious with some? of the most impressive weapons accompanied by a visceral Hardcore, an ear-piercing bass, hitting the metal while the sound of shit is recorded, get it into my veins.

Everything related to doom is a rush, the musical flow of combat, glory kills. But it's not such a dopamine-filled adventure. That doesn't have any quiet moments, however, there is one fundamental flaw, a crippling, mind-numbing decision that was made behind the scenes that almost makes me want to quit Doom and never play it again. Why is there an option to turn off music? Who would do it? Choose this option and why is it in the options menu? But seriously, even going through the options and setting your controller inputs on what night we're going to listen to the damn soundtrack.

If there's an award category for best music that plays while adjusting the brightness, I think Doom would win it. There's something otherworldly about the Doom soundtrack. It feels like any action the player takes makes the game itself. Respond and react to those actions when you are taking down demons and running towards glory, kill them. The soundtrack realizes this and almost freezes that moment in time before. any godforsaken creature is eliminated forever It's like a blockbuster movie like this This is a game where player input contributes to the soundtrack You know, I used to think there were few musical gods in the video game industry But now I know Mitt Gordon is one of them, good job, man.

This soundtrack is like nothing I've ever experienced in a video game and you guys are watching this. Is there any other soundtrack that sounds similar to what you're listening to now? What's crazy to think about is that in my opinion the music in this game was almost completely ruined according to macgowran. Imagine if she and Bethesda stayed the course, stood their ground, and said there's no metal music in Doom. Well, thanks to the damn Doom Slayer. They ended up giving Gordon more creative freedom because otherwise he probably wouldn't be talking about how the soundtrack would have been a generic piece of science fiction when the music stops so frequently.

Yes. It can be a little annoying at times, but this is what makes each playback unique. The music wasn't created in the simplest way: you just have the piece and play it in the background. Doing that can often cause the music to not reflect what's happening on screen at times when you enter an exit match, perform glory kills, or kill a Gore nest all have these transient audio effects, which It basically means that the soundtrack can stop on a dime and move to a different part of the song seamlessly, so combining hardcore metal dooms with are quiet pieces and subtle transitions.

What we have here is a soundtrack that follows the player and maintains a powerful immersion with them throughout the game. Mick Gordon has created a soundtrack that is never out of sync or out of tune with the players' actions and that is unheard of for Yo, but I went off on a tangent. Where was it? Oh yes, it's true. The feeling of doom gives the player the feeling of complete control. Whenever I talk about controls in a game review, I usually say a sentence or two about it if it's great and a lot more if it's bad, because it's similar to UI It's the kind of thing you don't really notice unless there's something bad or really good.

Unlike Doom 3, the 2016 version is empowerment captured in its purest form because horror games are meant to strip you of your power to scare the player and make it seem like you can't actually fight this threat. The Doom guy is always in control and therefore so are you, he seeks revenge, he doesn't back down, he doesn't use stealth, he doesn't hide that shit. for pussies You hear that Solid Snake now at first playing Doom seemed strange to me. He wasn't used to moving so fast without having to lower my weapon and run. I wasn't used to not constantly pressing the X button to reload after every firefight.

I wasn't used to playing a shooter that gave me a map screen that rewarded me for exploring and then I realized that for most of my time playing shooter campaigns, many of the FPS games that employ these mechanics They were actually hindering my fun. Lots of time to get used to modern triple-a games and how similar they all are. How linear I will buy the books that I forgot. There are real benefits to removing the linearity of sprinting and yes, even reloading in a first-person shooter, forOf course, not every game should try to copy Doom, but what I want to point out is that the game ends up feeling so unique because these mechanics are not. t Disrupt the flow of the game at all.

Let's talk about QuickTime events. Oh yeah, what most players would tell you is a cheap and unnecessary trick that adds nothing to the game. Press f to pay your respects. Does anyone remember that meme that was the pinnacle of QuickTime events? Oh, but in Doom, Yeah, they actually work here because if you open a door, you have to open it. I don't know about you, but part of me always felt like it was a little weird when you were playing a shooter and your character was supposed to open. a door, press a button, flip a vehicle or whatever and it does it automatically, although it's not a bad thing because it keeps you in control.

But in order for the player to feel the rhythms of the game, the combat is silent and everything else. These rapids. Temporary events serve as those natural momentary pauses that give you a much-needed chance to breathe. They are exactly that fast. NoButton-mashing nonsense There is no tedious factor in this. Part of the fun of Doom comes from watching how the Doom guy handles things around him, whether he's pressing a button, pulling a keycard out of a corpse, and punching a field drone. We all have a feeling of lostness through the sum of all these small actions.

I never thought I'd spend a lot of time talking about QuickTime events in a video game without mentioning how shitty most of them are. Resident Evil 4 made me accept it. QuickTime events, but Doom 2016 made me like them. Now that we know the control is fucking perfect. What is the next logical step? the gameplay I love how just half a year after Doom came out, companies like EA started talking shit. I'm not alive service Andrew Wilson you are Absolutely right what we need is more of this Because this is way cooler and funnier than this Doom is the perfect example of why this feeling needs to fuck off at its core Doom is unapologetic, the game could I don't care how the industry has distorted your expectations since its long hiatus.

It's hard to know where I have to go, says the player. Fuck you answers doom, figure it out. What are you, a bitch? You can't find your way through hell here. Grab this copy of Kitty Cat Squirt Gun Battle. You can play it at Weenie Hut Juniors, I'm sure you'll feel right at home Pussy. I love this Doom. He does his thing. She commits completely to him and doesn't talk like a baby. The player you would think of in this ultra-sensitive age? Pussies in the widespread plague of the cult of outrage that a series that has been mired in controversy and accused of inspiring mass shootings, you know, maybe I would try to play it safe a little, I wouldn't want Doom Guy to be too masculine because Then the women could feel the firm imaginary grip of the patriarchy around their throats.

Oh, you better not show gratuitous violence because that's bad. My God. There have been eight billion shootings worldwide since Doom came out as a coincidence. Go, go, go. You can't show those satanic images that will recruit little children to worship Satan. Within these video games is actually the devil and demons among all this shit that people are throwing at the games industry. Doom doesn't give a damn. Hell, either you play it and you like it or you don't and it doesn't care. It's so fucking sweet and amazing. When you realize that Doom 2016 is essentially the release of all the pent-up frustration of gamers in the gaming community from being attacked over the years of older men using Grand Theft Auto 3 as a murder simulator and car theft, eat your penis, Jack Thompson, you think.

Can you talk shit about GTA and get away with it? Distilled to its essence, the plot device works by trading the female characters' loss of power for Melkor's empowerment. Destroy Anita, you're too fragile for this hard shit. He was trained to kill Call of Duty. Suck these Christians, oh no. Children will be indoctrinated to join Satanist cults. Ha ha, damn idiots. Do not make me laugh. Oh. He feels so good. Leaving aside the sweet release of hard metal and rudeness. Well, without a doubt, Doom 2016 took a lot of inspiration. From its origins, the flow of combat, a variety of enemies with different strengths and weaknesses.

Secret areas and an unwavering commitment to fun. Doom gives new meaning to the phrase float like a butterfly. Chop like. Like a bee, the game is based on the concepts of moving fast to dodge incoming attacks while you focus on shooting, you will notice that there is no need to run. There is no need for booster packs. There's no need for pounds of dirt or wall running or grappling hooks. There is no need to aim down. It's as classic and cool as it gets and practically parallels the designs of the original games. Seamlessly throughout the game, your arsenal of weapons increases as does the difficulty, and this game's combination of enemies, weapons, and sandbox is incredibly fun and versatile.

The double barrel shotgun is devastating up close. The minigun. Let's just spray bullets everywhere. The plasma rifle allows you to suppress enemies and burn them to a crisp. The chainsaw allows you to maim those pathetic demons and the BFG. Is your release from jail free? card, I could go on and on about the weapons and how perfect they are in conjunction with the enemies and how fun they are to use, but I want to take a minute to move on to the design of the enemies as Mark Brown explains in this video what we can learn by doom What makes the game so fun is the simple design of each enemy and how the game makes the player understand what each of them does.

I highly recommend watching that video because it's incredibly relevant to this game. as it was in the original But we see this unique design from the humble possessed to the intimidating Wastes of Hell. You will never be confused by the tactics that enemies use against you. For example, imps are quite weak up close, but they have numbers on their side and launch fireballs from range. Hellraisers are snipers who will try to eliminate you from afar. Forcing you to dodge their attacks and face them. The hellish nights are big, close fighters who put pressure on you. The summoners are floating.

Telekinetic supporters Each enemy has their own strengths, weaknesses and strategies, for example, Kakko demons are huge balls that float in the air, making weapon weapons like the shotgun not as useful. However, the Gods Cannon is perfect against them because they are a very large target and don't move fast similarly. The Kubis Man is a badass armored tank that can be easily outclassed. But deadly up close if you're not careful All demons have weak points that you'll learn to exploit over time, like the pinkies that will attack you recklessly and leave their backs exposed to summarize the main game.

I will paraphrase and reiterate. What Mark Brown said: The secret to Doom's fun factor is in the meat of the combat and how each battle becomes a kind of dance of careful positioning and quick decisions, and in fact the game has made several improvements with respect to its original, where many times. You'd have to backtrack to find health packs, armor ammo, that sort of thing if you hit a difficult area, but there's a fix for that this time. Glory kills will ensure health drops and chainsaw kills will automatically give you more ammo. so it's not as unforgiving as the original.

They really nailed all the little details, like being able to place your weapon in the classic location. I honestly think these types of design choices could only have been made by a company that truly cared about fan service and the fans. There are so many little things. I probably wouldn't notice it or mention it, but I'm sure hardcore fans will really appreciate it. But behind the actual combat lies a lot of depth and a surprising amount of customization, the game relies heavily on the concept of exploration, discovery and progression and has some much appreciated light RPG mechanics.

Some of the secrets require you to be aware of your surroundings. You have to think critically if you want the reward, there are tons of secret areas that will give you special ammo, collectibles, armor, health, etc. Now One of the few complaints I have with Doom is that if you're a bit obsessive-compulsive about collecting things, you'll be checking your map constantly, which can break up the game, but that's really a personal thing. So explore the levels around you. and by not trying to run through the game as fast as possible, you will be rewarded with upgrade tokens for your weapons, your armor, and accessories for your weapons.

There are also Argentine energy capsules that permanently increase your health, ammo, or armor, giving you the option to choose what you think. One of the most interesting things about Doom are the secret levers hidden in each mission. They are hard to find and reveal a flashback level from the original game that also unlocks a classic level. I was impressed the first time I found one of that type. The throwback is much appreciated and the transition between the old and new graphics was fun to witness and a symbol of how far we've come since then. But it's not just through the secrets within each level that your character becomes stronger.

Rune tests that give you passive bonuses. They are unique and can adapt to your playing style. Therefore, it is essential to unlock each one and each level has its own set of challenges. Which ones give you weapon upgrade tokens? There are challenges for your weapons, doing special things with them, or killing a certain number of enemies in a period of time. It will allow you to obtain the strongest weapons possible. The best thing about the Dooms campaign is that you're not just mindlessly shooting demons in a linear path until the game ends but you're trying to get as many upgrades as possible.

You're thinking strategically about what to unlock and when it comes to finding which weapons you like best. Which accessory suits you and what to invest your points in, which adds up a lot. Variety in each and every Doom game. Power-ups from classic video games also return. You have things like haste that turns you into a manly artistic version of Sonic. There's Quad Damage, which gives you Quad Damage, and my personal favorite Crazy, which gives you the combined strength of Mike Tyson, Andre the Giant, The Rock, John Cena, and every person who's ever been strong and allows you to punch any demon. , big or small, to instantly kill God.

I love these animations now to jump back into QuickTime events once again. In combat they work just as well, but they were renamed Glory Kills and they are fucking epic. Shows how badass Doom Guy is. He doesn't just shoot demons. He rips out their eyes, tears his horns and stabs him. They will crush their skulls with the power of the glory of a thousand paladins. He kills not only rewards with health drops. But he gives you a sick animation. Watching the game gives you positive reinforcement through gameplay and visuals. Combined with Mick Gordon's sickest soundtrack, Doom 2016's campaign and gameplay is one of the best single-player first-person shooters I've ever played.

Especially in this current era of gaming where companies think investing in single-player modes isn't worth it. Doom lets everyone in the industry know how fucking stupid that is. So before we move on to multiplayer, let's briefly discuss the story, unlike most PlayStation exclusives that beat you up. head with photorealistic scenes that cannot be skipped, that is Sometimes you just want to play Essentially you are the bane Killer of a man So notorious and powerful that the tides of hell trembled in fear at his unstoppable attack Visual note, it is really cool that You get a backstory and a vision in Doom Slayer when you're actually in hell, I thought that was a nice touch anyway your goal is to stop the demonic invasion on Mars and to do this you work with Vega and the artificial intelligence and Samuel Hayden, a man who became a robot and the woman responsible for this is Olivia Pierce.

The plot that unfolds is typical of science fiction humans. Try to capture and harness extremely dangerous and volatile alien energy or whatever. It ends up going horribly wrong and you have to save. However, it is predictable and not the most engaging story. As George Lucas once said, it is stylistically designed to be that way and you can't undo that, but we can lessen its effects. Because if Doom's story were more committed, more emphasized. more forced would take him out of the role of Doom Guys. Is your role as Doom Guy there to kill demons and screw them over?

The story is there to set the framework for the game and give you an excuse to runtriggering things in this sense, if the story had twice as many scenes and dialogues, it would simply add a narrative force so that I could understand if people were disappointed. this story, but in this way it changes the emphasis on the game itself, which is much more attractive; However, to combat this lackluster narrative, the game includes a lot of codex lore and things to read, this was the perfect choice because it allows the player to learn more about the Laura world universe and history in their own time instead of over time.

Of games, what I love about Doom Guy is that his actions are the polar opposite of most video game protagonists. Do you know when? Cortana tells you to walk towards that bright beam of light. You do it because she told you to. Because she knows where the next missions will take place or when Woods tells you to stay quiet so she can sneak past the Soviet forces, you know it. It's because he told you so, but Doom Guy doesn't need a damn guide. We were just temporarily disabling the You need to remove each lens individually, carefully release the hinges.

He doesn't need to do what people tell him in a nutshell, the story of Doom. is minimized so that the gameplay has more opportunities to shine, so that forced scenes in a forced narrative do not distract from what is at the heart of the experience and, if you want to learn more, it is all there in the intriguing and brilliantly written. codex But how does multiplayer work? Because Doom in its heyday wasn't just about a single player. It had maps, mods, and mode ports. The beginnings of online gaming really began here. So, 23 years later, here we are and it's disappointing, to say the least, but not in the sense that it just sucks, like Call of Duty Infinity Warfare Dooms multiplayer, it's disappointing, similar to Halo 4, because The identity of this series could not be recovered and Wouldn't You Know It?

You do not know? It is the same company that helps create a certain affinity in both. Do not misunderstand. It's not a horrible multiplayer component. It can be a lot of fun and, honestly, it is refreshing because it's different, but the problem is fatal. The single player mode stayed true to its origins and the multiplayer mode did not, it has been modernized. Can I ask a simple question: who the hell asked for equipment in an arena shooter? What is the point? Uh oh, I'll tell you it's because multiplayer games can't just be fun, they need to have a progression system.

You need to unlock things. So you feel good Even if you suck, they have these demon power-ups that allow you to take control of a demon, essentially it acts in a very similar way to artillery volleys, which is a little scary to think about adding that spike of random power to any lucky one. The player runs into it, you know, it's cool. He spices things up by letting me play like hell, so I don't hate that. And yes, even the loadouts are fun to customize. But that's not what Doom is about and I'll say it right now.

This multiplayer mode is much better. Halo 4 has a ton of super creative game modes, like freeze tag, it has an amazing and versatile map layout. There are many ways to maneuver with unique tricks, such as going into space. The actual gameplay is pretty good. Shooting the controls is a lot of fun, so let's get back to the loads, the classic arena shooter games of yesteryear were about running around the map super fast, collecting weapons and collecting an arsenal, not only was the movement fast, but the Player reaction times had to be Also, you couldn't pause. Slow down the game to switch to the appropriate weapon for the current situation.

You had to do it in the heat of the moment. I just don't see any good reason for anything. The multiplayer had to be designed around a two-weapon loading system, at least have some kind of motorized playlist that is classic and gives players the classic Doom experience in the arena. Another thing that bothers me is the announcer. You already know how games like Unreal Tournament Quake and Halo started this trend of badass announcers. Yes, that's one of the centerpieces of an arena shooter. However, as fucking cool as Doom is stylistically, the choice for the announcer's role, while fitting with the story, is boring.

Bacon doesn't sound terrible like he doesn't need to be the announcer and his nice robotic demeanor doesn't represent the

awesome

gameplay so well, the other Modernization piece does and I. I couldn't even believe it when I saw it. I couldn't even believe it after playing the fucking multiplayer emotes. Oh really? Actually? Well, let's say someone comes to Doom and never played the original games, never watched much of it, but knows about this series and jumped right into multiplayer and saw this and you know, what? You'll think they'll say Wow, so this is what Doom is about.

Wow. I didn't realize this game was so gay. What was the conversation you had at the board meeting? Hey, we have this

awesome

single player mode that revolves around killing demons with awesome weapons. But what should we add to the multiplayer to make it cooler and more modern? Oh, I know. Why don't we give players the option to dance like a damn? Cheerleader, that's great. That's what kids like nowadays. Yeah. These emoticons are dumb, man, they're so dumb in contrast to how fantastic the rest of the experience is. The modernization of Doom's multiplayer is silly and totally contradicts that single-player masterpiece because the campaign stayed true to its roots while the multiplayer.

The multiplayer mode has the same principles as the campaign. They just played it differently, it's pretty fun for casual play and I like it that way because it's something that doesn't take your attention away from the main attraction, at least Dooms multiplayer didn't try to be a fucking eSport. So for this section. , I'm going to combine the difficulty map and the general content into one now. I've never been very good at using in-game tools to create maps, whether it's Starcraft Warcraft, three custom games that Gmod forged from Halo. It's a real shame that I can't spend more time on this stuff and finishing maps because all that time is spent making videos.

Yes, what you are seeing. The instant map in Doom is pretty awesome and I've only tested it by simply playing and I'm judging that from what I can see it does what's possible. I mean, it's really given Halo 5 a run for its money, now that I think about it. from this, the armor customization looks a bit like halo Mm-hmm, and they got this clan arena mode, which mmm seems like some kind of leak. Anyway, these types of modes and tools when given to the player and the game sure never will. run out of content Scroll through these menus.

It's also quite overwhelming. I mean, I don't even know where to start. The fact that you can script AI and enemies in a console game is not only revolutionary but opens up so many possibilities. People have created things like farming simulators. Missions custom levels for one player. You say it? It's all here So there's a mode for more creative and artistically motivated players to experiment with in my first playthrough. I chose to do damage and encounter a lot of difficulty, also known as normal mode, and it was fun but challenging. I think it says a lot about how well-tuned the challenges were when I can say that I never felt frustrated or felt like I'd hit a wall, the only thing that bothered me was some of the platforming stuff, but that's only because I was playing as a fucking idiot So now that I beat the game and know the mechanics, I can do it.

Don't wait to up the ante and play it in Ultraviolence Nightmare or even Ultra Nightmare. The replayability of the campaign is very strong. It's definitely appealing to completionists and those who want to find every nook and secret the game has to offer. And just in case you thought about it. you've experienced it all, there's also an arcade mode If you don't want to worry about collectibles or weapon upgrades or anything, this is the mode for you. It's great to relax and play without the commitment of having to actually pay. attention to the finer details But wait, there's more right now If you pull that lever and find the secret entrance We'll offer you the chance to play classic Doom levels for free and what a trip it is Honestly, I mean, damn Doom is Absolutely loaded with content from the campaign to the Arcade mode.

Rollback levels, instant multiplayer map. It is worth more than its initial price. And if you're ever arguing about what a game should offer for $60, be sure to mention Doom because it's the favorite, Paragon, the game gives you the best fan service, the best variety and packages. in some surprises that you wouldn't expect and that's the real boost for video games when a company is able to put so much effort into making their product that consumers are surprised at how much money they got for their money. I'm so happy that I finally decided to watch Doom 2016 and I just had to make a video about it even though it's two years late and we're already in the sequel to Doom Eternal.

I think the players throughout all these years have done that. I needed something like Doom to be one of the pioneers of the gaming industry and represent this hobby for us. We love it and fun. We enjoy the long hiatus of Doom, one of the three most influential gaming franchises.
