It's weird, Doom Eternal is easily my least favorite. It's just so twitchy. I really like the weight behind movement in Dark Ages

It’s a good (great, even) game, but I definitely think that removing the mobility you had in Eternal was a misstep; you don’t feel anywhere near as agile as you were in the previous two games.

Also Bethesda fucked the soundtrack regardless of the talent of whomever they brought on board for this title; How they treated Mick Gordon has left a bad taste in the mouth of anybody who enjoyed 2016 and Eternal’s soundtrack. DA’s soundtrack is okay, but it doesn’t punch the same as Eternal’s.

I had no idea about Mick Gordon leaving. This automatically cancelled any chance of me playing this game 🫠

Me when Bethesda burned their bridges with one of the best composers in the industry because... Why did they do that, again..?

The love of money... but not the actual acquisition of money. I doubt anyone could make a convincing case that fucking over a single composer really saved them any significant amount, even in the short term.
