The art style looks like world of warcraft.
Is it just me or are they leaning away from "horror" and more into stylized cartoons.

It's safe horror. They're going to eviscerate Quake. No Jesuses or bloody enemies or screaming in the lava.

Someone hasn't been to the Hell levels yet.

I've seen everything and it just is not hellish. Their vision of hell is orange lava and Quake 1 Scourge of Armagon looking levels.

Completely incorrect. Orange lava and Quake 1? 😂 I'm doubting you've actually seen it.

Yep, it's the most kiddie marvel "hell" themed game. Basically lacks any kind of badasery. But if you consider it a marvel shooter its great

I feel like your being dishonest. The demon being ridden is VERY much is the wow art style. Even if you disagree in general THAT demon looks 100% like it could be in WoW.

Edit: Or diablo since it shares a art style with wow.

Doom The Dark Ages is a devolution. From ultra edgy Nine Inch Nails Quake with horrific music, to literal soy drinker Marvel superhero Doomguy who's a manlet that's shorter than all the other characters in the game including the women. :steammocking:

Let that sink in, Star Wars fanboys.

Artistically, it's like WoW meets Gears of War. Not my cup of tea, tbh.

Or man those zombie dudes in the 2nd level of quake scared me SO much as a kid, it really was a horror game. Yeah this does give much more bright superhero energy. I honestly feel like we are entering a new Satanic panic with young people believing that satanic imagery is "evil" and going to cause them harm.

It's darker than what it normally is, kind of annoying that UE5 has pushed this trend of having a grey/puke green filter on everything.

It's plenty horrific, though. You legit walk across scaffolding made of stretched human skin towards the end and see all kinds of mutilated corpses.

The issue is it isn't violent enough. It's lacking the super aggressive nature of Doom.

Right, the issue is that the Demon mount enemy should have a crucified decapitated guy chained across his forehead between his horns. Just for no reason. The "in your face" is missing, the 90s essence. People who were not at least adolescents in the early mid 90s will not understand what I'm talking about, the entire era was about "attitude"
