So I downloaded Doom earlier, played around with it, and after 2 hours I applied for a refund.
>glory kills are almost mandatory for health and ammo, no true melee combat

>the gunplay fucking sucks, don't feel fun to use at all
Its not Doom at all.
I assume the people promoting it are just shills, because I know anyone who has played Doom wouldn't like this piece of fuck.
>glory kills are almost mandatory for health and ammo, no true melee combat
False, you can get ammo and health normally, sometimes they don't drop anything.
>a lot of the level design is just hallways with an arena room
So like Doom 1 and 2
>you need upgrades to make the game feel somewhat fast
It's called progression, it's like how you get more weapons in the original game. It's make it more fun to play later on. You can also replay the entire game with everything unlocked once you beat it.

Okay shill now fuck off

>pointed out bait
>get called a shill
mmhmm ok my man
what is doom to you then?
Only a few levels in but it already feels kinda boring and repetitive.
Keep seeing places go "ZOMG ITS FAST LIKE DOOM 1" but I didn't kill 75% of monsters through melee in Doom.
I do love trying to hit something then randomly teleporting behind it because the animation trigger fucked up.
Combat's too brainless with me getting hit mostly by things you haven't seen yet due to enemies running and spawning all around you.
The original Doom was as fast as you wanted it to be, this just seems to force it.
Also, fuck the shield enemies.

thanks for the blog post

You're right, it's not like DOOM
You actually have to aim vertically

Have you seen Console Babbies play it? They're not exactly jumping around like Tarzan. It's actually all up to the player.

>gets hit from off screen constantly
>relies on glory kills
>has difficulty with enemies as basic as shieldies
Sounds like your shit experience comes from being a shit player.

You actually think the heavy focus on auto-kill melee isn't down to console?
I just watched a video of the beginning
Dude takes 3 steps and a generic holographic panel explains in detail how you need to reactivate a station relay. Then he proceeds through corridors, shooting about 5 enemies in several rooms. Then he takes an elevator with an hologram talking some more. He picks an ugly shotgun, then a cinematic showing him open the door. Then another cinematic showing a demon in a dramatic manner. The cinematic ends and he onehsots it. In the entire 15 minutes video, he kills maybe 20 enemies, none of which are armed (at least I didn't notice).
What's next, audio logs and a bad guy explaining his plan to you?

I know the point you are trying to make, but cinematic melee kills take away control compared to vertical aiming which gives you more control.

>i bought doom and got a refund
>it's not doom
>and too slow
>everyone praising it is Bethesda shill
This is new shill tactic by Blizzard.
does the campaign have a stupid level system and shit?
>>337499042
>Only a few levels in but it already feels kinda boring and repetitive.
So like the original Doom games?
>>337500409
Has a continuous 'story' but it's mostly separated out levels.
>>337500175
the melee kills are like half a second at most
>>337499929
you fail to realize just how many casuals who suck at games are playing games nowadays. You really couldn't release a game with instant action like the original Doom nowadays because normies would whine and the product would lose money.

>Guy points out valid criticism
>you freak the fuck out and shill
wow, how autistic are you to not even try to refute his claim, did he hit the nail on the coffin and pretty much say he's right?
If so, GIT FUCKING GUD
