So now we’re being forced to have poorer performance and locked into buying more expensive hardware.

I’ll have to pass on this type of crap and vote with my wallet when ray tracing still isn’t there for the majority of pc gamers.

    Doom eternal was fun up until you had to jump around like a drunken spiderman. Turned that shit off so fast, never buying a doom game again.

      The constant required acrobatics turned me off as well. I loved Doom 2016, but Eternal wasn’t nearly as good IMO. I also didn’t care for the low max ammo / punching dudes for ammo or weak spots. Eternal is the first Doom I haven’t finished.

          I didn’t like the low ammo at first either, but I’ve come to really enjoy it. Since your chainsaw regenerates fuel you can easily get more ammo ~once per minute, and between that you’ll have to decide how to allocate your ammo based on enemy danger & weak spots.

          It forces you into a more aggressive and fast playstyle, but that’s the goal of the whole game IMO :)

            Yeah, I hates it at first, but after playing a level or two it clicked. I’m not sure it’s better than 2016, but it did find it’s own rhythm.

            The only thing I hated was the one miniboss like enemy that basically required you use a specific gun to beat.

          I think I remember seeing that as a top selling game in the app store when I had my Motorola SLVR. I’ll check that out, thanks for the link.

      Yep, the platformy stuff was an big turn off. I got a refund. Wolfenstein games are better.
