Also, demons were so traumatized by the rampage of the Doom Guy that they engraved his sadistic face on the damn pentagram.

Right. Titan was their trump card, and when he died, the demons threw up their hands, abandoning all hope. But some demonic priest, I think, came up with the idea to lure Doom Guy into a temple and collapse the entire thing on his head. Even -that- wasn't enough to kill him, so while he was knocked out they put him in a cursed box.

>>338300993
Brother its pretty damn great.
>>
>>338300993
Yes. Even for a game about killing 6 billion demons, there's only one word to describe it: joyful.

Took me 11.5 hours to complete it, so if you're one of those people who think a game should have a 1:1 ratio between hours and dollars, you might be disappointed.

However, those were some thrilling 11 hours.

The best comparison I can make is if Far Cry: Blood Dragon was a love letter to 80s synth and action movies, then Doom 4 is a love letter to 80s heavy metal and horror movies (and action movies, too, I guess).

Don't expect any DLC support for the Single Player, though. As far as we've been told, it's all multiplayer, and MP aint great.
>>
>>338301102
Cash grab. Worse multiplayer.
>>
>>338298624
This. Quake 1 was a mess.
>>
>>338301354
The previews had people playing slowly, and focusing on cinematic events, of which there are few in the game.

Doom 3 was all about tight corridors and slowly advancing forward. This installment has you enter into arenas where you have to kill all the demons. It doesn't shy away from throwing stronger and stronger demons at you, either. I was worried it would just send out one or two Hell Knights and spam the imps and soldiers, and early on it does do that, but as you encounter stronger and stronger demons, you'll see more mancubi than imps in any given stage.

>>338301654
RPGs, if you're lucky. Witcher 3 might be the last one that pushed past the 1:1 ratio, for me. Fallout 4 came close, at 56 hours, and Dark Souls 3 also nearly scratched the 60 hour mark. Difference is, I'll be playing the DLC for DS3, but I'm definitely done with FO4.

But yea, relying on the 1:1 ratio is a fool's errand that only works for some indie games and Steam sales.

They respawn after a while after getting killed? Picture related, a fearsome hell fairy.

>>338302694
didn't some humans get turned into revenants? or are revenants just dead demons that went to hell

So as I understand it from the lore:

Doom 1 happens
Doom 2 happens
Doomguy goes on a rampage across multiple dimensions that accounts for every .wad ever made
Doom 64 happens, ending with Doomguy trapped in the sarcophagus
Idiots from a dimension unrelated to the first 2 doom games dig up Doomguy and Doom 4 happens

Doom 3 has no place in the canon but due to its disconnected nature from the story it could totally just be the story of some random asshole in Doom 4's continuity taking place during the first time the UAC discovered that Hell existed

That sound right?

Why can't you perform glory kills on multiple enemies at the same time to smash their heads together or something?

Gotta agree. Multiplayer was great, but single player is simply frustrating - too many cheap enemies.

>>338301386
But it had better singleplayer.
>>
>>338303908
That doesn't really make sense though since Doom 3 doesn't fit in continuity with Doom 1 and 2

Doom 3 is almost entirely standalone and the only way it fits in with the series is if you assume Doom 4 takes place in the same universe, which there is no real evidence to confirm it but also nothing that contradicts it
>>
>>338304119
The original idea for Quake 1 was to make it a survival horror game, so the extra difficulty reflects that design period.

For me, the green walls with the Icon of Sin on them. It didn't help that at time there was a rumor going around in my school about some strange shit happening, including a kid that claimed to have gone to the bathroom and seen an Satan's face sticking its bloody tongue out. Whenever that was brought up, I always imagined something like the IoS.

>>338304078
I think it was in "The Doom Slayer Testament," something about Hell trying to get rid of Doomguy by flinging him in to random dimensions but he always killed everything there and found his way back
>>
>>338304110
Never, really, because Doom is and always has been about Metal-inspired imagery.
>>
>>338300993
Not at full price, not because the game isn't good, or great for that matter (single-player) but because 60 is a shit price and because you want to be careful when supporting bethesda plus the multiplayer is really not that good plus bethesda is starting to really shit itself concerning mods.

Vores may be rare but they fuck you up badly. Shamblers are also bad when the game forces you into arenas without any cover (and it does that quite often).

Quake 2 was simply better with enemy design in that regard.

They don't if you use cover to block their projectiles like intended. They're badly designed because the proper way to fight them just isn't fun. Also "quite often" is bullshit, I recently did a run of the game and I can think of 2 instances where the game did that. One is in the beginning of episode 2 after you pick up a key, which genuinely feels a bit cheap but doesn't matter much since it's an effective "oh shit" moment. The other is somewhere in episode 3, the level with the rotating bridge, but by then you should have so much thunderbolt ammo that it really doesn't matter.

Well, computer games used to be 30/40/50 dollars. Computer games being 60 is a recent, and quite shitty, trend.

Also most full price games either offered replay ability or multiplayer. DOOM4 offers both, but the multiplayer in particular is bad, and even if you replay the game 3 times that's still only 30-40 hours worth.

I'll probably get DOOM4 when it drops to 20 bucks on a sale in a year or two.

>>338306192
Well Terrorblade can create an evil version of Doomguy so I think Doublehell man could probably beat Doomguy just because he's such a Gary Stu. Also even if Doomguy did almost kill him he'd just Sunder Doomguy, so Doomguy would have to almost die so that TB wouldn't heal himself while almost killing Doomguy. Either that or he'd have to basically kill TB twice with only 20hp.

No, the fact that it takes 10-20 times more people to make a game that's up to normal people's standards now compared to 10 years ago is.

I think you didnt read them, or play the game.
The demon logs clearly state doom guy was given powers by an archangel, seraphim, that he knew titan lords and was wronged by them, thats hes millenia old, maybe older and that he was a member or a leader of some group, the armored guys we see

how teh fuck does any of this fit in with the old games?

>>338299332
Christ. What a load of horseshit.
>Shub-Niggurath code named Quake
The name came from id Software's D&D campaigns. There with a god like viking with a hammer like Thor but named Quake. The video game was supposed to feature Quake with his hammer as the protagonist. The hammer was supposed to have the ability to cause quakes which changed the level layout, but during development they ended up scrapping the solely medieval/magic weapons and moved back to Doom weapons and shuffled the whole theme of the game. But by that time they had already began promoting the game as Quake. So they scrambled to try and make the name fit into the game. And this was the best they could do? A final boss codename? Quake is my favorite game of all time but I'll be the first to admit that it's development was a huge fucking mess.

Pretty sure the thing about Doomguy is that he keeps coming back. Established at the end of the first game and episode: when Doomguy dies he goes to hell. And i'd assume that if he dies in hell he goes to hell. So they had to trap him.

In Doom 4, he does get a backstory.

Back when Hell was invading some other dimension, Hell was losing against the Night Sentinels and the Elemental Wraiths. Then a demonic priest came up with a plan. He knew of a weakness in one of the Sentinels.

The Sentinel was promised his son, who had been lost on the battlefield, would be returned to him, if he showed the demons where the Wraiths were. He did, and this allowed the demons to conquer the dimension and use the Wraiths as a power source to fuel further conquests across other worlds.

True to his word, the priest returned the son to the Sentinel, "but in a form of their choosing." The son has become the Icon of Sin, and would slumber until some major event where he would awaken and unleash all his rage and agony on the world.

Pic is the Icon of Sin as it appears in the game, in the Necropolis level. It's just a set piece, doesn't do anything, for now.

He's mad as hell and he's not going to take it anymore.

It's unclear what he is, in Doom 4. In the credits, and throughout the game, you see these Templar (the armor type as referred to in the multiplayer) Doom Guys, and those might be the Night Sentinels, of which Doom Guy might also be one.

He's either something not quite human, or he's a human that was so badass that he was elevated to the level of the Sentinels. I'm unclear on it all, though.

So how would you explain the story of the doom games to a guy who has never played them?

>>338309609
Either something with angels, or he's just extremely fucking ornery and the the demons have mythologized his backstory to make sense of how this pissed of dude just won't stop killing them all.

It's an alright game but it's sorely lacking in personality compared to the first one. I'd rather have lovecraftian Doom than boring ass space aliums.

>>338304814
Human translation says seraphim. The Demon side says "Betrayer"
>>
>>338311226
Holy shit, this is so over the top that it's actually cool.
>>
>>338311556
In the codex, it's mentioned that doomguy was blessed by a seraph, receiving speed and strength, and a rouge demon built him his power armor.

The bit about the demon is suspect though because human numbers and english warning labels are plastered all over it.

i played doom 1 when i was a kid but i never finished them. Should i finish 1 and 2 or are there no references to them in the new one?

It's in the bottom left, you'll have to zoom in on the pentagram. It's diagonal to the 4 on the pentagram, where the orange splash is.
>>
>>338312082
The humans translated a tablet that said seraphim. The Demon testaments never mention an angel. Just an betrayer. Earlier on somewhere it said the angel gave him armor as well. The demons claim the Betrayer armored him.

>>338312302

If you're playing on console, it's bearably mediocre.
Snapmap could be interesting but there's only so many times you can run through a same hallway. Some guys are getting silly with the scripting though. Played a passable version of harvest moon earlier.

Pretty much.

The way I have it figured, Doom I and II and Doom 64 take place in their own dimension, around the mid- to late-21st century. Between 64 and Doom 4, the demons try to kill Doomguy with the Titan, which obviously doesn't work, but he ends up getting knocked the fuck out in the process. So they decided to trap him and ensure that he can't escape. Which works, until a UAC expedition finds him. The dimension they're from is similar to the one Doomguy is from, except that it's farther along in the future.

That's just what I pulled from it though. From what I gather, nobody has completely figured all of this out yet.

I enjoyed it.

Different, more story/PAD reading/jump scare. Didn't have the wonderful imagery of Doom4 but that was the time.

I've never been all about the speed in doom, haven't played it in 15~ years, so I never got into the speed run or modded scenes and the quakes/ut were king frag games for me at the time I played the dooms.

I simply lacked the attachment to the first FPS games to care that D3 wasn't 'the same'.

because killing him would just respawn him somewhere Hell again and unleash him to start killing. when someone dies in doom they get assimilated into the demon horde, but Doomguy is possibly the most strong willed being in existence and just gets back up.

>>338300232
I would guess they would be superstitious over him. Like killing him would bring then end of their kind or something.
