About to pay 40 schmeckles for Doom. Should I do it /v/?

I can't stop thinking about it ever since I returned it to my redbox. Was expecting it to be on torrent, but it's not up yet.
>>
>>339367975
Not worth over 30$, unless you like the sound of "Brutal Painkiller RPG".

The MP and SnapMap are also shit.
Torrents have been around for ages, but still no cracks.
>>
>>339367975
Yeah, buy it. It's genuinely the best FPS on the market now. Even if you're a meme who says the MP and SnapMap is bad, the singleplayer does have a lot of replay value.
>>
>>339370278
>It's genuinely the best FPS on the market now
Way to make a hyperbole statement without probably even realizing it.

D44M would've been a huge disappointment for me, had I had any expectations towards it after the early reveal footage.
>>
>>339370683
I do realize it. It's the best game out right now. I'd go as far as saying it's the best game of the 21st century, because, looking at it objectively, only the golden age FPSes are more fun.
>>
>>339370797
>it's the best game of the 21st century
Do they pay you for that or you invent this shit on your own?
>>
>>339371065
No, it's my opinion. I'm sure you have a game that you'd say is the best of the 21st century, in other words, one of your all time favorites. DOOM 2016 is mine.
>>
>>339371168
>I'm sure you have a game that you'd say is the best of the 21st century,
No, not really.

> in other words, one of your all time favorite
An all time favorite is in no way comparable to "the best game of the century".
>>
>>339371168
not him, but I'd had helluva hard time choosing just one "best of 00s" game, not to mention a single game for the entire 1.5 decades we've gone thru' so far.

There's definitely been many far better shooters than nu-Doom. It's just sad to watch people rave about extremely lukewarm re-introduction of a classic IP. AGAIN.
>>
>>339370797
Glad you're enjoying it, but that's a pretty big claim

Not when 40 schmeckles can buy you a full day at Blips and Chitz

I haven't played post-1990's games that I would genuinely say are better than DOOM 2016. And no, before you say, "play more games", I do play quite a lot of games. I'm sure all of you have felt this way about a particular game before. Fuck, I really really love DOOM 2016.
>>
>>339367975

Anywhere to get this for $40 on PC that isn't risky?
>>
>>339371904
cdkeys.com
I bought plenty games from them before.
>>
>>339367975
No.
>>
>>339367975
Realistically, I know I should support these kind of games that are bloody worth the dosh but I'd be crazy to pay full price when I can just wait less than half a year before it goes on sale for -50%.
I don't give a fuck about any hype train, if it's actually good I can wait just fine, a fool and his money are easily parted and I don't even need much patience for it to go off -50%.
>>
>>339367975
Why don't you just buy the game new from retail?

also it'll never be cracked, but it'll also never have mods
>>
>>339371904
>>339372203
There's always a risk with grey market keys, in addition buying there doesn't actually give the developer a proper cut.

How does that work? They have to get their keys somewhere; do they buy them or what?

They acquire them from authorized retailers, but they themselves are not an authorized retailer, because they didn't acquire the keys from the publisher themselves.

I'm not a shill. Pity that you've never liked a game so much that you can't understand how I feel about DOOM 2016.
>>
>>339372381
>>339372506
Why pay $60 if I can get it for $40? It's a no brainer really. $60 is way too much to spend on a video game.
>>
>>339367975
Really fun, no regrets but I bought it cheap on Kinguin
>>
>>339373348
because your key can be rejected at any time if the company decides to sweep for grey market keys

and it doesn't support the game dev, they only get whatever small cut the company paid to be able to sell the keys for 40

wait until they announce a single player expac/dlc
if they do, wait for the whatever edition 1 years down the line with all the contents.

But I already have. I beat Doom 1 like 100x and Doom 2 like 3x.

No, I've been playing games for about 14 years. I love it so much and I don't care what you say.

No. I just love the game. None of you understand.

When can we expect a price cut on this? 60 usd is way too much.
Now if only they could release a single player only version on a lower price...

Shit, I don't think any other modern FPS is better than DOOM 2016, but you could've named some half-decent ones like Far Cry 1 or UT3.
>>
>>339375002
Kill yourself my man.
>>
>>339373635

So do they et a bigger cut if I wait for a legitimate site to list it for $40? Genuine question, I'm willing to wait if so. I can't justify $60 on it but I do want to support this kind of game becoming a trend. Single player FPS are a lost art.
>>
>>339375002

You're a piece of shit. Like, as a human being.
>>
>>339375464
That becomes unknown as we'll never know how much they paid for their keys. Unless the key is stolen in some way, or was paid for with stolen credit cards.

Sure, no game ever beats Zelda:OoT in pure awesomeness, but if you actually start looking at genre-specific titles, D4 is very mediocre mess.

HL2 and Serious Sam 3 both are better games.

No it''s simply that I'm an aspiring game dev, and grey market keys are worse than piracy, since people are willing to put up money for grey market keys, but they don't pay the little bit extra to properly support the dev, I'd rather people just pirate any of my future games
>>
>>339378212
Game developers are paid salary from publishers. Publishers are the ones gaining the profits you dumb faggot.

Greedy publishers not paying the game developers proper pay out are bigger problems for them than some dumb fuck slavs selling this shit on the net.

Stay mad for getting tricked into paying $60 for a game faggot.
>>
>>339378650
Unless someone doesn't have a publisher? And even so if the publisher doesn't see the IP as profitable then there probably isn't going to be any future development on it.
>>
>>339378758
Then your game isn't even worth it for people to sell it on cdkeys.com. Stick to some bullshit indie game stores.

Fallout isn't really an FPS and you know it. Even then, one game does not a thriving genre make.
