Too much story

[sick duck]

The CHAD: "They are rage. Brutal. Without mercy... but you... you will be worse. Rip and tear, until it is DONE"

Just a savage one liner to get the player amped up... Then nothing else happens until the credits roll. That is what I want from these game.

And you think EVERYBODY buys the Doom games for NOTHING but ripping and tearing? Then how do you explain all the Doom lore vids you see on youtube?

you can skip cutscenes, you know. they don't have any value anyway, you won't understand why are you here and there most of the time

When I was watching Hugo Doom Eternal streams he said once something like this "you will not believe how much this cutscene costs". It was 15 sec cutscene on ARC Complex level, when we shoot tentacles with giant gun.
So, instead of few hours of cutscenes in Doom TDA we could get more levels instead.

Some of these levels are pretty short. Some of these levels are like "I don't like this gameplay, can I get back to normal Doom shooting, i want this to end"

Nah, I love the cutscenes. Sure it's not a "good" story but it's fun to see all the crazyness of it. Game would be worse without it.

[JackieTheDemon]

So skip them?

blocked.

Exactly. I don't necessarily care in a Doom game, but the high production story is a nice extra to have. Also the cut scenes are well placed at the start/end of sections and feel like a reward/rest.

The death and revival of the slayer actually are pretty awesome cutscenes. I dont say that the overall story was good. But there are some really great moments.

Except id paid for the story crap to be written and for the cutscenes. Now, remove the story garbage from the game (and the shield :) ) and Doom The Dark Ages becomes a $50 game.

yeah that was too generous of me

[Exerion76]

Lol. Too much story? There might be a total of 20 minutes of cutscenes. Most of them are just a minutes or two between some chapters.

Yeah but if you buy the game full of cutscenes you will get more games full of cutscenes. If you dont like full cutscene game and buy this you own yourself.
