Can we all admit that the new Doom singleplayer was actually better than we thought and that it will be a good Doom sequel.
Of course is not going to be better than the originals, but im pretty sure is going to be fun.
>>335813579
No. It was just as bad, if not even worse, than what I thought.
It's literally a modern, casual, linear FP-RPG, with tons of handholding and shit designs. And we can't even fix it with mods, since those won't exist.
>>335813579
no, we cant
>>335813579
Looks fun, definitely a buy for SP stuff.
>>335813890
Well said. Best people can do is buy a key on the grey market.
>>335813579
I'm going to at least give it a shot.
WolfTNO gave me a glimmer of hope that "retro" modern FPSs can be done well enough for me to enjoy, even if I still prefer the legit classics.
>>335814084
>Best people can do is download the cracked torrent a week or two later
FTFY
>>335813890
Pretty much this.
>>335813890
how is the first 2 doom not casual ? if don't up the difficulty levels it's a walk in a park

If you saw the stream, you can turn those off in the options menu. As well as glory kills, chanllenges and the obscure icons.
>>335815507
Let me guess you want an easy mode for Dark souls too.
>>335815572
No, i dont. Because Dark souls has already an easy mode. It´s called summoning.
In the stream they said, that you can perfectly play the game like the originals, whithout the RPG bullshit or upgrading weapons.
>>335815695
I don't care. Putting it in even if it's optional is bad enough. Because we will never get nonhandholding games this way.
>>335815507
You can't turn glory kills off. You can turn the "stunned" highlights off.
Glory kills are a fundamental part of the game and your main source ammo and health. Don't lie to anon like that.
>>335815802
So basically, optional mechanics (that can be turned off) are handholding, even in Nightmare?
>>335815901
You really beleive that this is the old doom we know? This is casual cod doom, even if you turn it off.
>>335813579
>new Doom singleplayer was actually better than we thought
Wait, has it been released already?
I don't think I'll ever touch it anyways, maybe a pirate down the line if only for curiosity sake.
>>335815896
No. You can turn off the highlights, yes. But if you dont press the melee button, they will not appear. And they are not your main source of ammo and health. They were plenty of ammo drops and health drops in the map, as well as armor.
Why does no one talk about Doom 64? It's my favorite Doom. Also I recently got Brutal Doom unzip and play package and I'm using The Ultimate Doom wad. Their are textures that are just blue and white checkered. Are those missing textures? Oh and I'm cautiously optimistic about this new Doom. I don't care for the multiplayer so I hope the single player is great. It looks good from what I've seen.
>>335816069
the optimal way to play is to use glory kills. the game is designed around glory kills. saying "b-but you don't HAVE TO use it" doesn't make the gameplay it is designed around any less trash. i can turn off quest markers in skyrim but that doesn't magically make it not shit.
>>335816028
As i said at the start of the thread. No, Doom 2016 will not be as good as the classic. I dont think even Romero or Carmack today could top that. But i think that the game will be fun. Im starting to think that you havent even watch the stream if you think it´s casual call of dooty. It´s not even close to call of duty wtf.
No, it's an unholy abomination nowhere near on the level of even Doom3.
>>335816286
You have to stop breathing if you want to support this.
>>335816069
You're wrong, anon. I watched the same stream you did. They said that you can not glory kill if you don't want to, not that you can turn off glory kills.
Turning off glory kills would require a complete rebalance of the game, insuring that the player would have enough resources to complete the levels without cinematic KOs.
And they ARE your main source of ammo and health. There is ammo and health on the maps, but the main source comes from the enemies.
>>335816257
>the game is designed around glory kills
So, the game gives you some ammo or health drops when you glory kill and now the game is only designed around glory kills. And even if thats the case, whats the matter?
>>335816257
Glory kils don't give you any bonuses or items from what I've seen in the game, and even if they do, you can stop yourself from using it if you want more challenge with less resources like health and ammo
Also, consider this possibility: At post-Hurt Me Plenty difficulties, enemies may get stunned for a shorter time window, possibly down to a fraction of a second, before getting their bearings and going back to fucking your shit up. This, combined with the overall harder time you'll have fighting them on a harder difficulty, would make glory kills nigh inexistent if you think you're good enough not to use it, or a godsend to get a moment of breather by executing an enemy in the so called "cutscene kill".
>>335816404
No, it doesnt. Multiple times Bethesda has said that if you want to play without glorykilling is fine. And, as i said earlier. Even if it does, so what? A couple of seconds is so bothersome to you?
>>335816729
You seem like you know an awful lot about a game that isn't out yet.
I wonder how that could be.
>>335816768
Yes, watching 10 canned animations over and over again is annoying as fuck.
Even the mod they stole the idea from doesn't force you to do fatalities.
>>335816849
>inexistent
>so called "cutscene kill".
he's either fucking with you, or retarded.
>>335816849
Not a shill, bud. I'm just speculating from analyzing the gameplay vids released. I'm just carefully optimistic about it because I need a new game where I can kill monsters. I already played SS, painkiller, doom, etc.
explain to me why glorykills are bad ?
for speedrunnning ?
because it really ad something fun and satisfying in the game
>>335813579
it looks like saints row 4 quality.
the most average thing ever basically.
>>335817101
Because the original games didn't have them, therefore it's bad.
>>335816768
The same way you can play Thief 4 without focus despite the entire game being balanced around the focus mechanic?
By your logic, third person takedowns in Deus Ex HR are optional if you only use stun guns and tranqs.
>>335817281
ok so is real 3D then
>>335816590
glory kills have an effect on how the game plays. when someone criticises it by saying "these suck and ruin the flow of the game" and the response is "don't use them". try to figure out why these two things don't mesh
>>335813579
Doom 2 is better than 1. But yeah, D44m looks better than 3.
>>335817441
>Doom 2 is better than 1
>>335816980
>Even the mod they stole the idea from doesn't force you to do fatalities.
Forced? Is Marty Stratton holding a gun to your head. Its that the problem here. The game is not THAT designed around GK. In the stream, only big monsters would give you tons of drops. Im sure you can play the game just fine. Maybe, watching 10 canned animations can get annoying, but thats a problem i did see when they picked beserk
>>335817281
Takedowns are never good.
>>335813579
Basically after seeing what people were saying in yesterday's thread, all the complaints boiled down to "it just doesn't FEEL like Doom"
kek
>>335817101
>>335817281
this has nothing to do with it.
glory kills are a gay feature that's slapped on top and literally does nothing for the game.
if that was the only problem with the game I wouldn't care at all but them existing shows a fundamental misunderstanding of how to design games at all.
that's how modern games are designed, they add stupid features on to shit without even considering the overall picture. say doom is a song, it's like you took a barebones beat and started adding random fart noises to it that you can optionally filter out. the only thing it's good for is a joke. that's what this doom is.
>>335817101
Because they slow down the gameplay and they don't even have creative animations.
For every one imp being ripped in half, there are four of them simply being punched without gibbing. Brutal Doom, the mod this game is copying from, had better kills with fucking sprites.
>>335813579
From what I've seen, it's good. Of course it can't top the originals, but that's not impossible because you can't create a better game, but because of the zeitgeist.
It's like the first car. It was sensational. But nowadays they're all the same and you're happy if the drive well. You can't recreate the revolutionary essence of what made Doom a cult.
That could happen later on, when VR gets going. But most probably the honors will go to some other company.
Doom 4 will be a good game.
>>335817768
>>335817835They're optional, get over it.
>>335817640
Doom 1 enemies are very boring. It's fine to have boring enemies in your game to contrast fun ones, but Doom 1 doesn't really have any fun ones. Doom 1 is fine itself, but I wouldn't want to play many wads containing only Doom 1 monsters. I was kind of tired of them by the end of Doom 1 already.
Doom 2, by contrast, has some of the most creative enemy designs ever featured in an FPS. And that is quite something!
>>335817720
The problem is you're talking out of your ass. The game was clearly designed around this mechanic but you're saying you can ignore it. You don't know this for certain, you're just guessing.
It's a pointless argument because it's not based on anything factual.

Doom 2 has some really shitty maps.
The chainguy guy is one of the worst enemies in Doom 1 and 2 combined, edging out the Lost Soul.
Only thing that Doom 2 has that's worth a damn is the SSG.
>>335817990
You're wrong about 1's monsters and Doom 2 has horrid levels that aren't fun to play through.
>>335814584
>No health-regen
>limited amount of supplies in a map
>very few enemies drop any supplies
>no mission reminders or location compass
>no autosave
>no slowmotion bullshit
>couple rockets or an explosive barrel can off you even on lower difficulties.
On top of that, the maps of D1-2 were designed and tested on pistol-start Ultra Violence. So you're kinda doing yourself harm if you play below that.
>>335817835
>Brutal Doom invented executions
>>335817920
if you had actually read my post you'd understand that it's actually almost every addition to the game I dislike while they literally stripped the entire the game itself to a barebones state.
once again, modern game designers fail to understand the fundamentals of game design, probably because they have no passion and shitty ideals.
anyways, the game is probably mildly amusing for 8 hours.

True.

Commandos are fine, some mappers just overuse them.

Yes, let's ignore all the iconic enemies it brought to the table!
If Doom 2 didn't happen, Doom today would be as dead as Wolf 3D.
>>335817990
a-are you saying you like the pain elemental design better then the caco?
>>335818250
>>no autosave
There are save slots, though. I mean yeah, you can say that "you can not use them", but then I can say that you can ignore D44m takedowns.
>>335818641
>looking up and down
>optional
>>335818889
save scumming is as much a part of game design as debugging and cheat codes are
>>335817920
The gameplay released yesterday proves it is not optional. Stunned enemies do not drop ammo or health unless glory killed, it's right there in the fucking footage.
>>335818840
I like pain elementals, that said, Caco is one of the best OG Doom enemies.

Save-scumming is a meaningless term outside of roguelikes and emulators.
>>335819001
You're blind, watch the videos again. Enemies drop health/ammo/armor without using finishers.

>>335818889
Manual, oldschool "hard saves", that require you to literally pause the game, navigate to another menu, and choose a slot before anything happens, is nothing compared to autosaving.
Hell, I've seen tons of newfags complain about lack of autosave lately. And not only in Doom.
And this shit ain't got anything to do with the Glory Kills either. Especially since those are confirmed to be your main source of supplies throughout the whole game, as you will be locked into tiny combat arenas with finitely spawning enemies, for several minutes, several times throughout the entire game.

>Manual, oldschool "hard saves", that require you to literally pause the game, navigate to another menu, and choose a slot before anything happens, is nothing compared to autosaving.
It takes me a second or two because I can use my keyboard. And no, well paced checkpoints can make for a harder experience.
Anyone feel like this is a game designed for people who have heard of Doom and it's legacy, but never got around to playing it?
It's like how Thief 4 isn't actually a successor to the other games in the series, but is actually based on games that were inspired by the original Thief games.
>>335819001
Also it was on Hurt me plenty. Stunned enemies and drops maybe will be reduced in higher difficulties.
>>335818041
>the game was clearly designed around this mechanic
You do not need to use glory kills to progress in the game. You are objectively wrong.
>>335819525
Doom 3? Yeah.
It looks like a fun game for local multiplayer. I've been waiting for an FPS with a mapmaker since Timesplitters.
I don't care that it isn't exactly like Doom 1 and 2, because if I want a game that's exactly like Doom 1 and 2 there are virtually endless WADs for me to play.
>>335819462
no, i made it because i still hear stupid arguments about how this game is bad instead of focusing on the important stuff
>>335819782
>brutal doom/project brutality
1. free
2. fully customizable
3. almost 25 years worth of compatible map packs, with more being made, unlimited content.
4. huge enemy variety with remixes of old and new enemy designs that still maintain colorful unique appearances
5. hordes of dangerous enemies sometimes numbering in the hundreds
6. lethal weapons (full customizable to your liking), including freeze rays, flamethrowers, 2 variants of the BFG and a fucking black hole generator
7. constant updates
8. hilarious voice acting that doesn't take itself seriously at all (which you can toggle off if you wish)
>doom 4
1. $60+inevitable season pass+ microtransactions
2. better graphics. whackity shmackity doo
3. not customizable in the slightest
4. maybe 3 enemies on screen at once in a busy fight
5. generic looking weapons
6. piss brown filter "so fucking real!"
7. bloody screen so real
8. monotonous executions that break the flow of the action and get old the instant you look at them
9. FOV set to 55, no you can't change it you entitled whiner

Yeah, cool.
I've yet to see a legitimate argument as to why this game is worth the time to play. Every thing said in it's defence is trying to mitigate the criticism of this game becoming more like modern games in the FPS genre.
So I ask plainly, what does this game offer me?
>>335819726
Sorry kid, but your logical statement will be entirely ignored by entitled manchildren who can't accept a rational thought process as yours.
>>335819919
So play Brutal Doom, then! Why are you getting so mad about this new game when the game that you want to play already exists?
>>335818641

>>335819919
Most of the stuff you wrote about D44m is simply not true.
Also I dunno, I just don't like BD. Minigun is hella cool, but everything else is just too much. I prefer Smooth Doom for that Vanilla+ experience.
>>335819976

But you can.
couldn't they just make literally the same kind of game as DOOM 1 and then make the graphics good and improve from there?
>>335820157
They're called "Former Commando" in the manual, IIRC. Probably in the victory animation, too. And shotgunners are "Former Sergeants".

yep, you proved my point. First, they said it will not have microtransactions. You can customize some aspects (not all of them, but some). They are going to be a lot of fucking enemies, you havent watched the stream. The piss filter is removed, and the game gained a lot of colour since e3. It doesnt have a bloody screen. GK are completly optional. You can change FOV up to 150, even in console.
>>335820267
>Chill out Socrates?
Are you white? Not who you're talking to, butReferences like this gets me flooded.
>>335820139
Who is this game targeted to if not fans of classic FPS games?
>>335820316
>The piss filter is removed
It was never a piss filter, it's colored lighting. The first area had a lot of smelted metal, which gave off a yellow glow. It's like saying fucking Quake 2 had a piss filter because Stroggos was all orange/yellow.
>>335820397
E3 premise last year showed you exactly who they are targetting towards and it was anything, BUT classic FPS games. Need to be spoonfed the entire answer or would you like to show that you have a brain and figure it out yourself?
>>335820242
You might think so. But they want to sell. A lot. And the masses of people playing modern fps like the kind of things you see. Not saying it's good or bad; I'm just saying that it doesn't matter what they say, the intention is not going back to the roots of anything, they want to make a game that appeals to a public that only nows Doom by the name.
>>335819919
>3. not customizable in the slightest
>4. maybe 3 enemies on screen at once in a busy fight
>9. FOV set to 55, no you can't change it you entitled whiner
Objectively wrong.
>>335819919
>generic looking weapons
So the SSG, a minigun that can unfold into 3 smaller miniguns, the Gauss Cannon and the BFG are generic?
>piss brown filter "so fucking real!"
It was removed you dumbass.
>bloody screen so real
The original games flashed a red screen whenever you got hit you ape. Your point?
>FOV set to 55, no you can't change it you entitled whiner
It has an FOV slider now and the base FOV is 90 you idiot.
At least try to know what you're going to bitch about before spouting bullshit you don't know.
>>335820397
I hate this upcoming DOOM as much as the next average joe, but condescending shit like >>335819976 are child's play.
>>335820561
it's pretty sad cause I replayed all the earlier doom and mods not too long ago and it's so solid. It feels good to just go fast and wreck shit that explodes in billions of giblets.
Now put that in HD with the brutal doom factor in and you,ve got a really fantastic game.
>Can we agree that a game that noone has played yet is good/bad
how about no
>>335820242
Nobody wants mazes with keycards anymore.

>>335820537
Calm down you petulate entitled child. You think just because you're not getting exactly what you want this gives you the right to complain? You're fucking pathetic kid. You probably got your ass handed to you in the beta, this game is off the wall non-stop hardcore shooting, and you can piss of to little babby games if you can handle it you candy ass bitch.
Try making your own game bitch.

>>335820759
With Hell I think they went for that "sulfur" look outside. But yeah, it was really unfortunate that they chose two yellow-ish areas to show off during E3. Kind of a dumb move.
They released some screens shortly afterwards which shown different colored environment.

Is Doom 4 the new Thief 4?
>>335819919
>monotonous executions that break the flow of the action and get old the instant you look at them
Doesn't Brutal Doom do the same thing?
>>335814613
shill detected
>>335821283
Only if you're using fists, with the berserk pickup, and are in "rip and tear" mode. If you don't like it, you can use "smash" mode which simply makes punches gib more.
>>335821283
It's worse, because they are longer and you go in third person.
They're easy to ignore, though, your fists have two attack modes in berserk, one triggers those, another just punches fast. Or I think that's how it was?
>>335821152
I think Thi4f managed to miss the point of the original games even more than D44M, if you can believe that's possible.
>>335821152
Does D44m Marine wear eye-shadow? No? We're good, then.
>>335813579
TooT isn't out yet, faggot.It looks worse than Doom III from the preview.
Also, you left out Doom 64.
>>335821472
And what is the point that DOOM is missing?
>>335821463
They both are the same speed and damage, the difference is that one trigger the fatality when you kill them, and the other just makes them explode.
>>335821737
Oh, okay.
>>335821618
TooT looks better than Doom 3 thanks to the streams that they did. And yeah, i forgot Doom 64. I cant put it anywhere because i still havent played it yet. Is in my "thing to do" list. Maybe i will play it tonight
>>335815896
Wrong!!! The main source of ammo and health comes from chainsaw kills!
>>335821674
Adding RPG elements is questionable to say the least.
I do think weapon mods basically allowing for alternate firing modes is cool though.

>It looks worse than Doom III from the preview.
Not even fucking close.
>>335819431
>thinking there's story screens

see? THIS idiotic attempt to mix old and glorious and new and shitty is the exact reason why the D44M won't work, and why newfags just can't understand the point.
>>335821948
Yeah, the RPG mechanics are weird to me aswell. But i will not use them myself in my first playthrough

>>335822048
It's older so it's better mentality, I guess. I mean, I don't even hate D3, but the encounters in that game were just so bad, and the attempts at horror didn't really work well. At least D44m doesn't try to be a horror game.

Good luck with that. The devs in the stream yesterday told that some other people in the team had TRIED to play through the game without using any upgrades, only to get horribly butchered in later levels. This is a good indicator of fucking horrible balancing, as in once again you NEED to utilize all the new-age cancer to have the game actually enjoyable.

>>335813579
>>335813579
Well if it's any consolation. You can play the entirety of Ultimate DOOM on DOOM 4 if you find all the secret easter eggs. And on top of that it does look like fun.
>>335822743
>>335822693
>samefagging.
pathetic.
My only problem with Doom 4 is that everything seems so weak. Like I've watched videos of gameplay with using the double shotgun and everything taking three shots with it to go down. In the other games your guns felt like they had weight and impact behind them since shit went down quick and you had a lot of enemies to kill. In this shit doesn't go down quick and because of that you have few enemies to kill at most times.
Still looks like a fun game for the most part but those are my issues.
are these back ?

Whatever, faggot. Doom 3 is shit.
>>335823362
All the leaks suggest no.
>>335823245
I think the issue is that everything is a tad slower, a tad less momentous. The game still looks like it plays quite similar, because truth be told, any Imp takes two shots, and many enemies, save Mancubus/Revenants/etc., take three. That's pretty comparable to the memory I have of playing Ultimate Doom last.
>>335823161
You make take the tinfoil hat now.
>p-p-photoshopped!
Pic related it's you.
>>335823245
Clearly you've never actually watched any gameplay footage, because even the regular shotgun was one shotting zombies/imps. Whereas the super shotgun was gibbing them and two shotting Hell Knights.

>>335815896
>Glory kills are a fundamental part of the game and your main source ammo and health.
Someone didn't watch the stream because even though enemies are pinatas, glory kills will not increase rewards unless you equip runes made for that.
They said it themselves and you can see a rune made for it(It just increases armor drop rate) when he's equipping himself for the Hell section.

>>335824020
>doom 2 is an objectively better title, it has more levels, a better level structure
>>335824020
Doom has on average better level design but yeah DoomII is better overall I agree. It is the base for 90% of custom content after all.
How did they fuck up the monster design so bad ? They all look comical . I remember the hell knights in D3 looked menacing as fuck
>>335824226

>>335824153
Duke Nukem Forever wasn't even bad. It certainly wasn't up to "ten years in the works" standards, but the game was silly fun that clearly was trying to pander to the classic fans in some ways. Doom actually looks like a reboot, rather than a half-baked sequel, whether you want to shit on how it has some features of modern FPS in SP. I'm kind of hyped for May 13th when it drops, just to see if my 37 funbucks were worth it.
Its impossible to take doom4 seriously, because its like writing Bible 2.0 or Illiad 2.0
those source materials are what everything else is based on, they're the starting point for the entire culture, you dont just make a sequel to them
its more stupid than it is disrespectful, and its weird to me that anyone would buy or play doom4 in the absence of astounding quality, which it certainly doesn't possess

The game was grey as shit and regen HP just killed whatever good it had combat wise (and it did have some good, shotgun is fun, enemy design is surprisingly strong). The first battle against Battlelord is probably the worst FPS boss battle I've seen. Well, Battlelords were always kind of a trash enemy, but DNF just took it to new heights (lows?).

It has ammo BECAUSE it's OP, dumbass.
>takes place on generic space station with small corridors and large rooms only for fighting
It's not even in space, it's a fucking Martian facility. They look out into the Martian surface at the very beginning, how are you this dumb?
>no fancy or memorable level design like the originals
A giant demon skull entrance isn't "fancy" or "iconic?"
>fun of discovering what new weapons do is gone
What the fuck?
>too many laser/plasma guns without any kick e.g the pistol (with infinite fucking ammo might I add)
Only 4 of the 10 weapons are energy-based. Also who gives a shit if the shitty fall back pistol has infinite ammo? Are you just bitching for bitching's sake now?
>uninspired, not colorful enemies and environments
The environments looked like they had plenty of color variety to me.
>feels need to add lore to a game that should just be killing demons
Who cares about optional lore? If it doesn't get in the way of gameplay then it shouldn't be a fucking problem.
Of all the complaints I've seen for DOOM 4 yours are the worst. Congrats.
>>335824704
>its weird to me that anyone would buy or play doom4 in the absence of astounding quality
It looks like a passable modern FPS with some really dumb stuff in it (RPG elements) and some really fun (monster designs, some weapon designs). If I had lots of disposable income, I'd consider buying it.
>>335824874
Can't truthfully remember much from the game, anon. I just remember the intro sequence, i.e. crawling through ducts (I think?) and doing shit in your suite/hotel complex, along with the RC sequence. Both of those were fun, but I can't say I beat the game or even got close. Nothing spectacular, but it did seem like it was at least okay.
>>335824450
>>too many laser/plasma guns without any kick e.g the pistol (with infinite fucking ammo might I add)
I feel the need to remind people that Quake 2 had an Infinite ammo pistol too.
>>335825162
I actually have soft spot for mediocre/bad FPS, but DNF... eh. I'm not a big fan of DN3D either, though.
>>335824450

Weirdly, it's the first FPS that I've actually played without cheat codes. Learned how to use the mouse playing it. The maps are good, I just don't really like enemies/weapons. Preferred Doom 2 to it, which I played much later!
>>335820840
>anime pic
Leave any time
This game is getting some serious hate due to nitpicking.
I think it looks good. It plays like classic FPS with maze-like levels, the art style is really good and colorful. I never liked DOOM that much, because I was a console player, so I did get to play DOOM 64 buy I also played the 3 Turok games, goldeneye and perfect dark so the impression wasn't so great. But from what I played, this seems in line with it.
>>335825308
>not a fan of DN3D
I'm not saying you can't have your opinions, but what are your reasons?
DNF was okay with some cheesy sequences like I said, but DN3D was really good. Shit, anything PS1/N64 era like Time to Kill and Zero Hour were at least really solid games too.

I tried playing it recently, like maybe 3 years ago, and the Lunar maps... I think I've gotten a secret map and somehow fucked up my save there, or couldn't find an exit. Anyway, gameplay-wise I didn't like enemies all that much, half of the gun were really gimmicky and I really disliked fighting Battlelords.

I can accept these as valid points even though I don't necessarily agree with them on a subjective basis. Different kind of game built around different things compared to something like Doom 2, even though they're similar engine-wise.

Did the new Doom come out already?
I'm so out of the loop I only see adverts on the side of the bus and YouTube.

>>335825576
I don't care for the weapons either.
The pistol and RPG are nice though, but the rest I feel is pretty lame.
Devastator has power but it doesn't feel satisfyingDuke Nukem 64 had Dumdums and Explosive shells and I loved it. SMGs was cool too

>>335827213
Oh actually never mind, that's pretty much a minute before the video I saw starts. So you jump down a ripped off giant demon's neck (good thing no one shat there after ripping it off!) and then you land in kind of a gory place and then you explore catacombs.
if you watch one of the developer comment videos, they show the transit between a faux-doom1 area, to doom4, and they actually say its an amazing moment, that somehow the new game is of the higher quality level as the original, and isn't it amazing how far we've come
its a disconnect that can't be resolved with words, they really believe, or they're contractually obligated to say, that their halo corridorshit is better than doom1
