Doom: The Dark Ages Is Just Medieval Mid.
Doom: The Dark Ages is the most pathetic excuse for a Doom game ever made, it's like they took everything that made the series iconic and threw it into a medieval toilet. Who asked for a gritty Skyrim-looking Doom with clunky armor, slow weapons, and a vibe that feels more like a rejected Dark Souls mod than a proper demon-slaying bloodbath? The fast-paced, adrenaline-fueled chaos is gone, replaced by some brooding knight fantasy nonsense that nobody wanted. Where’s the speed? Where’s the rage? This ain’t Doom, this is LARP with extra steps. Bethesda really said, “Let’s kill the franchise with a flail.”

To me it feels like a side game and not very inspired. Like they saw elden ring's success and wanted to adapt that. A little God Of War vibes also.

I think once the honeymoon ends(like in a week or 2 more) this isn't going to age well perception wise. Eternal and 2016 both felt more polished and original and not chasing trends.

This comment is the most pathetic excuse for a comment ever. Its like they looked at everything that made this game good and threw it and their brain into a toilet...

Lol, the honeymoon has been rough, probably divorce before we get back.
"Where’s the rage?"
I think I found it..
The hardcore Doomers are here to defend the newest poster child in the franchise!

Maybe Steam will one day manage to grant only write permissions to owners/users of a game...

Assassin’s Creed Shadows Is an Embarrassment

Assassin’s Creed Shadows is an absolute joke, and it’s honestly insulting to longtime fans. Ubisoft really said, “Let’s take everything unique about Assassin’s Creed and toss it in the trash so we can make Ghost of Tsushima Lite with microtransactions..

Clair Obscur Expedition 33? What a colossal mess. It’s like the developers just threw together a half-baked idea and called it a game, expecting us to be impressed. The graphics look like they’re from a decade ago...

That’s an option, but I’ve only seen it used once or twice. The Elder Scrolls Online Steam board was owner only posts for a long time after its Steam launch did not go well.

Hey, that already exists for the game reviews, and if you know that the forums are a cesspool, just keep playing the game. Don't shift+tab all the time just to read the posts.

Its all totally avoidable y'know.

Its a bit like browsing reddit, you already know its gonna be a dump but people do it anyway. :steamhappy:

I don't see Doom2016 or Eternal in your collection, your comment means less than zero pal.

Just watched John Romero playing some TDA on youtube. He finished his session with 'It's awesome and 'course I'm going to continue playing it'. Obviously, the OP and all the other experts know better though.
