Jump Scare the game

[Limp Squirrel]

I just passed the Hell level, and now I;m in Central Processing. And jesus, did this game take the jump scare mechanic and put it on steroids. The game went from compelling and fun to pure frustration and tedium. Central Processing is just one bait maze with imps, babies, and spiders coming from All directions at once.
It gets incredibly dull when every 5 meters you move, two imps spawned behind you while a commando is rushing at you.
Things are made any better when every time you get, your character get knocked back with the screen going completely ape. I've missed 8 shotgun shells at a baby just because every time I fire, it would just attack in the same frame, swinging my aim all across the screen.

This is not scary, hard, or fun. FFS, I feel like uninstalling it because I;m sure the remainder of this game is just going to be more bs like this.

Eh - you're so close to the end, you might as well finish it out. After the Hell level there are only a few more levels left.

i've died more times in the CP level than all deaths combined up to that point. They decided to make the levels few levels straight up cheap as nails by just hoarding demons in small corridors. Those spiders and flying babies are the worst. Once you pick up the missing panel, things get extra stupid with spiders imps and babies coming from everywhere. I was getting mildly nauseous from the screen just completely batsh*t crazy because a spider was poking at my left foot, all the while an imp was shooting fireballs.

Doom 3 is turning out to be one of those games you end up Youtube to see how it ends, because I have no intention of sitting behind my PC just getting angry as a result of the cheapskate design.
It ain't a game if the only thing it does is piss you off.

It is supposed to be hard in the last couple of levels in the game. Keep on you is near the endlevel.

my point is, it's not hard. It's cheap. I don't care much for cheap difficulty. Having a game with a gradual difficulty curve shoot into space in the last levels solely by throwing a platoon of heavy hitters at you is just ♥♥♥♥♥♥ desin.

Same here, and I can't play for more then an hour each time cos my headset is soaking wet.

Indeed. It's a different experience entirely when the commandos are actually 6'3" tall and running straight at you.
