DooM

Meh. Doom was an interesting novelty to me 20 years ago as an 18 year old college freshman. No interest today.

Not posted? I posted the trailer in the E3 thread. :lol:

I think this looks like an interesting hybrid of Doom 1 and Doom 3. It clearly follows Doom 3 visually, but tries to play more like Doom 1, with some of the Brutal Doom mod thrown in. In fact, I believe the Brutal Doom mod creator was used as a consultant on this game, though he was very publicly unhappy with several elements of the gunplay in the trailer.

I'm personally pretty excited for it, as I think the action FPS has basically died. All we have now are melodramatic futuristic military-themed FPSes with terrible writing the color brown everywhere. If Doom has to go back to the past to take us to forward, so be it.

My bad, I didn't think about the E3 thread when I posted this. My apologies on the brain shart. But like you I am very excited especially if it goes back to its roots which it appears to be doing, but with a little more pomp and circumstances. there even will be the ability to Mod your own single player and multiplayer games. Was disappointed they failed the duke nukem reboot but I think they're getting this one right. These fast pace action FPS games can really get the adrenaline going. your brain can literally go into survival mode. And like u said, doom 3 graphics in the original doom quick pace "ruin your undies" way. doom 3 sucked. They should've called that one Medal of Doom or like the new developer called it Call of Doomy

Duke Forever wasn't a reboot, it was a sequel that took 15 years to put out because they kept restarting the project… sort of like how this Doom game was announced 4-5 years ago and was started over halfway through. I thought it was pretty decent for what it was, especially if you imagined it as an HD remake of a game that never came out.

I thought Doom 3 was pretty decent. It tried to do something new with the series, but the horror was basically monster closets and scripted scenes. It was Half Life 2: Doom. I'm really hoping this game is less scripted and more organic. Let the scares happen on their own.

I need to see more, but I'm excited to finally have what looks like a more classic style Doom game… albeit with Brutal Doom concepts.
