Why is there so much hate for NuDOOM? I'm honestly convinced

Why is there so much hate for NuDOOM? I'm honestly convinced it's just hipster fags on /v/ that weren't even alive when the original came out and are just hating it because Bethesda was the publisher. It's miles better than DOOM 2&3 and actually feels like a great return to form

Ive played tons of the original DOOM games. I really liked nuDOOM.

I had no expectations for it when it came out, and then as I played through it, I find how much I really enjoyed it.

Hell the original doom can be beaten in like 20 mins.
>>
>>342352231
It's at best uninspired and at worst generic, consolized and padded. The samey environments with a lack of interesting visuals, the lockdown monster rooms, the takedowns, the achievements and upgrades, the care that was taken to include references to everything from the original, including scripted monster infighting (because the mob and level design is too poor to allow for actual monster infighting)...it's a much poorer game than Doom 3, which at least attempted to break new ground with its horror approach, a thing not seen on PCs at the time. D44M just brings nothing to the table.
>>
>>342352749
>>342352942
It is short and repetitive for the price. The game is what, 60 dollars or something? Maybe I'd pay for half the price. And as I said, they might as well removed the multiplayer completely, it's a halo-cod mashup.

There isn't any wub wub in the music. If anything it's closer to industrial than it is to dubstep. I thought the soundtrack was great and fitting to the atmosphere of the game.

Because it gives me a bunch of shit I don't actually want.

I don't want to use Snapmap because it's a shitty poor man's .wad that doesn't let me customize anything that would make a good Doom level pack. No new weapons, animations, graphics, sound, all you can do is change damage properties and level layouts. They're using Unreal Engine 4 I think for this game? It should've been fully moddable.

I don't want to play the multiplayer because there are tons of way fucking better multiplayer shooters out on the market and it doesn't do anything interesting enough to warrant me playing more of it.

The Doom campaign is alright, would be worth a quick runthrough, but I don't want to spend sixty dollars for eight hours of fun. If they sold all this shit separate I'd definitely buy the Doom campaign for 20 bucks. As it is now they're giving me a bunch of shit I don't want or need. It's like the yearly CoD releases; I'd buy your multiplayer for 20 bucks if I didn't have to deal with your shit campaign or your shitty zombies mode.

I don't have to because that's literally the point of the OST you retard, DOOM is a game about a pissed off guy that goes berserk instilling fear in the hordes of demons. The OST reflects that, I'd be disappointed if the music was anything else than what it is but I don't know why I should have to explain this to you.

Oh, they're using an in-house engine that hasn't been used for any other games.
They're also using id Tech 5 for many of their upcoming releases, and have never licensed this engine out or let people make mods for any of their games.

This is the company that made fucking Doom, which still gets new level packs every single fucking day.

No it's not. id software that made Doom had...7 employees, I believe?

Can you name a shooter that isn't repetitive? New Doom does have issues but I really don't see how that sticks.

>>342354546
>executions

Just don't do em, they barely benefit you.

My big issues with the game are that enemies drop too much health when you're low on health, and that single enemies get stun locked too easily, which makes them a non threat in 1 on 1. Something like a hellknight should only be stunned by a hard hitting weapon, and even then they shouldn't get stunned after every hit.

Beyond that it was a really enjoyable shooter that had a full focus on movement based shooting, it's just a shame that the game on UV is really too easy and forgiving.

BFG Division is a neat song that fits the game well. The music is alright, unsure why people are flipping a shit over it. Doom 1 and 2 just stole songs and made midi versions of them.

I'd take Doom 4's ost over Quake's and Doom 64's ost.

Best opinion. D44M is pretty good but also pretty different from the originals, although I also think they do a good job in keeping the spirit of Doom for the most part.

I enjoyed the fuck out of the single player, but I went in with like 0 expectations so that probably helped. It kinda gave me a Metroid Prime-ish vibe somehow. Shooting feels good, enemies are pretty diverse overall, you're encouraged to run and gun and you need to prioritize enemies. It's a solid movement based shooter and there hasn't been a good movement based shooter out in forever.

If it goes on sale soon I'd completely recommend it.

I just refunded it a few days ago. 90 Minutes in, was just a bit after the foundry. I liked the level design but found that all the guns felt like pea shooters and didnt have the kick they should. That and spamming the same 3 animations to finish off enemies and get health gets really old really quickly. It was okay but I can't justify spending $105 on it, so I'm glad I got a refund. I might try it again once it's on sale for <$40

2. wow press x to KILLTACULAR is obnoxious as it sounds
3. Otherwise a solid corridor shootan game

I'll probably buy it when I upgrade my graphics card. It seems like a good game. Not a great game that everyone expects with a name like Doom. But not a bad game.

The marketing team deserves to get fired and hopefully never find jobs in marketing again for how awful they did

its symptomatic that the children who grew up playing CoD with press x to win QTEs have ingrained this sort of nonsense in video games for a long time to come.

>this completely gives you double health pickups part f the basic game doesn't matter because I said so

you'd be funnier if you were arguing that adding jump is fine because you don't have to jump. not that I care about that particularly

It is indeed good but after I finished my nightmare run I saw no reason to hold onto it. Multiplayer actually is garbage. Who are the dudes next to him in OP?

Did you actually play the game? Glory kills give you fuck all in terms of health drops.

It does nothing new.

Rented it from Redbox because I was skeptical, finished it had a good time, bought it because it was on sale for $40 and I wanted to support a good game.

SP was alright, levels like the Argent Tower completly fuck up the gameflow and the pistol is a disgrace but since I paid 30$ and got 10 hours out of it, I guess its alright.

Multiplayer's alright. It would seriously benefit from faster movement speed and jump distance though.

Doom 3 has great lighting, the best plasma gun and some neat monster designs at least

Otherwise that game could not be more unremarkable, especially in comparison to other FPS that came out in 2004
