I don’t see any other reason they would upload 10 minutes of someone floundering around in one area, unable to progress. It shows nothing of the game, it shows nothing of how it’s played, it just shows the dude is bad at game.

Stages and areas with limited or flickering light + moody music definitely created a feeling of creepiness and dread, only heightened by feeling especially vulnerable if you were low on health and/or ammo. Toss in a few spectres in a dark area and Doom 1/2 had the capability to make me jump and go "gently caress" irl even in tyool 2019

The “clop-thud” of the cyberdemon always gets an “oh gently caress” out of me, even playing now.

Its easy to overlook now, but when doom 1 came out, absolutely That part in E1M3 toxin refinery where you grab the pickup and the lights turn off and a monster closet opens Definitely can be very spooky. That's what inspired Half-life, GabeN wasn't good at Doom so he would slowly creep around corners afraid of what was next, instead of blasting through like an action star. The game industry has changed so much since '93. You can't underestimate how different doom was back then.

i've been playing playstation 1 doom and that poo poo is dark and creepy as gently caress. somehow harder too but i think thats just the controller. its a great port. had some legit scares from the reworked maps and the UV doom 2 monsters hanging out in doom 1 maps. poo poo my pants quite a few times. but yeah even the OG with the metal music (on snes for me at least) it still felt spooky and gave that sense of dread.

Doom had its scary levels. Dark, flashing lights, monsters placed as jump scares, ones where you were hearing demons everywhere but not finding them. That was definitely part of the first games, it wasn't all run and gun action.

One of my favorite things about 2016 doom is it’s way more action adrenaline and way less spooky scary adrenaline. The lighting, sounds, and monster placement in classic doom still totally freaks me the gently caress out.

Vikar Jerome posted:Uhh did we know about this already? No microtransactions, unlock poo poo with xp, for free. Sounds good to me, hugo. This is completely false in the sense there isn't any MTX in the game. Let me explain: You can purchase XP Boosts with real money - this has already been covered multiple times and confirmed. XP is the currency "in game" when you buy unlocks, cosmetics, etc. This is Bethesda. Nothing more than a word play here as they are easily able to reduce the amount of XP and add more grind to drive people to purchase XP boosts. The back end is all in control just like a mobile game to control advancement via other means, increase grind and reduce XP gains there by limiting your purchase power without RMT for boosts. In other words, yes there is a "hidden" MTX system in which it is two layered and Hugo Martin can state this and still be factually correct. You cannot buy anything in the store with real money - but they can control the in game currency flow and charge just as easily to increase that flow. In essence they CAN slow it down to completely unreasonably levels. This isn't just cosmetics - this is everything that can be unlocked via XP in the home base. This will be pretty fleshed out one way or another on release. But remember, this is Bethesda we are talking about here. And Hugo has no say in anything from a monetization stand point when it comes to just how bad was the XP gain neutered for this to sell XP Boosts to make a dent in unlockable progress.

You're conflating speculation from sources with a statement from Hugo likely (we can't see the original post he's commenting on) addressing that speculation.

Yes, it does. https://mp1st.com/news/report-doom-eternal-battle-pass-confirmed-along-with-boosters Before Hugo's Statement XP Boosts were mentioned all over the internet as being available to help progress through the game quicker. What else would these boosters be needed for? If this wasn't Bethesda I wouldn't think it would be nefarious. FYI. I'm going to rent it from Gamefly but we will see soon enough what the ambigious term "Boosters" mean in short order. Utnayan fucked around with this message at 20:02 on Jan 28, 2020 |

Boosters allow you to "sponsor" up to four other players and passively gain XP based on how well they do. The better the players you sponsor, the more XP you get. It's something new that hasn't been done in a game before"

I do miss that demons would be hanging out in og doom. You could sneak up on dudes or hear imps oinking in some part of the level you hadn't seen yet Am I misremembering or were pinkys originally just called "demons"?

Original Doom's enemies were: DOOM readme.txt posted:------------------------------------------------------------- A lost detail I love about it is how while spectres are of course invisible pinky demons in-game, the implication was that they were these half-existing things that got messed up during the teleportation process.

Pinkies was either an internal nickname or something the fans came up with.

It was all shown to be unlockable with collectables and unlockables from the main campaign. The only XP related system shown in any preview footage was the battle pass looking level complete window that had some cosmetic icons and skins.
