RoadCrewWorker posted:Broforce did everything Duke had in a much better, self aware way. The only way to do a Duke game these days is to have him as a washed up way-beyond-his-prime old fart desperately throwing catchphrases around that are a decade beyond their expiration date while everyone other npc rolls his eyes at him. If Doom in 2016 can lean fully into the ridiculous Doom Marine persona of being a frightening force of ripping and tearing nature among demons then Duke's only way is to face the elephant in the room head-on and own it up. You're basically describing Matt Hazard from Eat Lead, a good game.

Co op doom Eternal should have DoomGirl and Doom Slayer teaming up with the Mormons to get the last of humanity into space like the novel adaptation.

Idea for DO5M co-op mode: Any time you’re about to do a glory kill, you and the demon pause for about a second. During this time, your co-op buddy gets a beep or some other kind of small audio prompt. If he presses his own glory kill button fast enough after the audio prompt, he will immediately jump/warp to where the glory kill is about to happen and the two doom guys do a team glory kill. You could turn off team glory kills in the options menu if you want, but why would you do that? With almost any other studio I’d fully expect the dev leads to say this would be too fun/cool/overpowered. Come on id. You can do it.

They had a reference to Repercussions of Evil, there's GOT to be some nods to the novelization in there somewhere

Yeah!" and then having you do them anyway. I remember him quipping something about throwing grenades back and enemies, but you couldn't do it which just made the jokes feel bad. Basically, it's being self-aware but not doing anything to correct the flaws its pointing out.

If both players die, the whole encounter resets. Of course the encounters need to be balanced such that there are enough enemies for two doom marines going crazy and glory killing constantly.

That Doom "third person" video is hilarious and coop sounds like a blast but man if the footage doesn't remind me of videos of speedhackers on multiplayer servers and that one Mirrors Edge third person video.

RoadCrewWorker posted:This is also kind of the pitfall FC Blood Dragon fell into. It's my (second) favorite far cry game, but some of the tone of that game has aged worse than the rest of it, and it was a wise choice to keep the entire game limited in scope. Doom 4's writing works so well because it sticks the comic relief subtly in the background and doesn't constantly/obnoxiously push your face into it front and center, restraining itself mostly to occasional situational comedy (read: mostly doomguy smashing things)  : It's safe! It works. You cannot do this!Doomguy looks at the argent filter. He looks at the gigantic torrent of hellfire pouring from the portal in the sky. He looks back at the filter. SMASH  : Well, that's it then. There's nothing else to be done.MISSION UPDATE: KILL OLIVIA PIERCE

Doom needs a renegade button for the cutscenes that cuts them short by breaking things / threatening the NPCs. Like instead of Olivia doing her thing, Doomguy starts breaking through the glass and she has to run off. I hope they do something like that for Eternal

I didn't pick this game up until I saw the NoClip doc. I am real loving glad I watched that. I also hope they make the MP in DO5M more arena shooter style, but I dunno. Bethesda probably thinks doing that would step too much on QC's toes

I'm always "an unbeliever" in any game until i've seen a decent amount of fully unedited gameplay footage from someone who isn't a dev or PR shill (this includes youtube incluencers) or playing with a controller. I can be hopeful or looking forward to see how the potential gets realized but i've seen plenty of cases where that just didn't work out or the result wasn't my cup of tea after all but i also know that the more tightly controlled and edited the PR dribble is the less it's actually telling me about whether ill enjoy the game or not, so i usually just stop paying attention to them. Even from the most badass preview teaser you just can't tell if there's some really unfun garbage thing, in fact, it's the job of a ton of people to make sure you don't know.

I don't think anybody has anything to be ashamed of for being wrong about this game in particular before it came out. During pre-release when all we knew about Doom was what Bethesda had advertised to us, every single negative comment was absolutely warranted.

I think too that people still had Doom 3 in their heads, which had mixed reviews due to being sluggish and dark compared to the classic games. Not that it was a bad game per se, just didn't "fit" with the feel of the other games, despite looking pretty good for the time. I started getting hyped when id showed the first DO4M gameplay demo with the cinematics and chainsaw action in the Foundry level. Seeing how brutal and gory it was, I was like "yeah, this could be pretty awesome", and was happily surprised.

Maybe CDPR figured if they did it like this, half the gaming community gets to hear about the basic premise of the gameplay, but won’t complain about the inevitable graphical downgrades it will get between now and release like they did when that happened with Witcher 3. However, we still don’t have the basic premise of gameplay because the only thing that was really described were generalized events that could’ve just as easily happened in a side scrolling platformer or isometric RPG, much less the kajillions of ways you can make a game where you hold guns in 1st person play and feel. What this tactic did accomplish though, was making CDPR seem pretty obnoxious and up its own rear end about the miracle game they’re developing that us plebs can’t handle beholding the magnificent splendor of just yet.
