Well, I guess it's nice to know that I'm not the only one.

Yeah, I think it's best example of this I can come up with is from this XKCD comic:

The new size looks good to me. The text is a bit clearer, so I don't have to squint.

So, are we ever going to get to punch Dr. I-don't-remember-his-name-and-really-don't-care in his stupid face? Because he needs to be punched in his stupid face. Also, did anyone else at the fist-bump of lil' DoomGuy? Apep727 fucked around with this message at 00:20 on Aug 13, 2016 |

I'm not asking for a time-stamp or anything, just confirmation of whether or not face-punching will occur. Because I'm sure we all want it to happen, but don't want to get face-punching blue-balls.

Okay, semi-random question: am I the only one who keeps expecting the bodies with the key cards and upgrade tokens to move when you bend down to pick the thing up? I know it'd be cliche as hell, but my trope-trained brain keeps expecting it to happen.

Okay, I know that gameplay and story are more segregated in this game than Mississippi in 1932, but I think I deserve some kind of explanation for how killing a bunch of demons stops a reactor from melting down. I mean, could we have at least gotten DG pushing a button or something? I don't think that's too much to ask.

Qrr posted:Doom guy did press a button, which turned on the fans. No, I think I prefer the "radiate supernatural heat" theory. I mean, what's more logical: that the guys who programmed the computers at this facility thought the "hey, we're putting this place on lock-down because demons" announcement took priority over the "hey, you managed to avert a core meltdown" announcement, or that demons generate special heat that can only be ventilated by blowing holes in them? Come on, man, it's common sense.

A bit late on this, but I just want to say that I love that DoomGuy's solution to "shut down the power" is to just break the drat things. "When all you have is a hammer" and all that. Also, Mr. Stupid-Robot-Face, I don't care that you "solved" a huge energy crisis - the fact that said energy is literally coming from Hell (and is probably a good part of why your facility is being overrun by demons right now) kind of out-weighs any benefits. I mean, seriously, how stupid do you have to be for "let's drain energy from Hell" to sound like a good idea?

So, humanity doesn't even have the excuse of "we didn't know the energy was coming from Hell" as a defense. I think the human race in this game maybe kinda deserves this. As for the centering the weapons thing, I don't see how it makes aiming harder - you're literally looking down the gun's barrel, just shoot whatever's in front of you. I will admit, though, that most of the guns don't look nearly as good from that angle. It is a nice classic-Doom throw-back, though.

Samovar posted:Well, what would a cult dedicated to going to hell BE if not filled with masochists? Wait, was it the cult that did that, or the company? I mean, we are talking about a megacorporation in a video game - casual disregard of basic morality is kind of standard.

re: the sword thing As cool as that would be, I can't remember any instances of good implementation of swords in a first person game, especially an FPS. Also, they gave you a chainsaw, which is like a sword, only it causes more gore.

Am I the only one who thought the pre-recorded spiel at the "employee of the month" area (or whatever that was) sounded a bit over-the-top with the cult-y terminology? I mean, come on, UAC, could you at least try to maintain the illusion of just being a regular, interplanetary megacorporation? You might as well just change the company's motto to, "UAC - just a front for a demon-worshiping cult."

When I took Russian back in college, the only curse word I was ever taught was their word for "pancake." I still have no idea why it's considered a curse word.
