Is the game scary?

[Rashad241]

Doom was always a scary ass game and im still nervous to pick it up lol. Especially knowing that im the only human in the game to be blasting the monsters and no other AI to help

Doom 1 and 2 was never scary games. You are talking about Doom 3.

The new Doom is not a Doom 3 sequel but a reboot of the old Doom.

It is not scary. It is gory. The environment can make you feel a little bit scary but ... not for me ;p

This is an action game not a survival game like Doom 3.

Anyway you can easily look at Playthrough of the game on youtube or on Twitch.

You haven't played Doom then. The only scary "Doom" game is the third one, which is the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ entry in the series.

How was Doom 3 even remotely scary?

You had plenty of weapons and HP/Shield that you could take on anything. Towards the end you got a silly weapon which was ridiculously powerful.

All Doom 3 had was jump scares.

Doom 3 a survival game? Since when? It was an action game all the way through.

It's scarry for the demons.

[Crix]

nobody could possibly tell you if a game or movie etc is scary, it's highly subjective.

I was I think 15 when I played Doom II and it was scary for me probably because of my age.

[Kastley]

Depends on your age really, DOOM 1 scared the ♥♥♥♥ outa me but I was a little kid playing.

Ok guys thanks for the feedback, but first my purchase is going for overwatch, then it will be Doom :)

For you, perhaps. It sure was scary for me when I first played it (at the age of 12 when it came out) with its stupid ambients, horror-esque atmosphere and unnecessary jumpscares.

The Doom guy is FAR to macho-man to get scared. Hell is scared of him.

Read the logs you find in the game, it explains his back story and where he came from (kind of, hes supposed to be 1000s of years old) and also explains his super speed and strength. It ties in with Doom 3 in a very loose way :)

[zayaid]

it's scary when you have only 1 pistol and they have 5 barons

[Guydodge]

does not have the jump scare effect like doom3 (my fav by the way)but is dark and creepy at moments.if you liked doom3 chances are you will like this.there is a story its not huge but if you do the reading and lisren to the talking it does come together nicely.

I agree with you there. Doom 1 and 2 were fast pace shoot em up Action horror games while Doom 3 felt like playing dead space in first person perspective horror survival game.

nope, there is one jumpscare, but it is easy to see coming and isn't that bad
