Ultra-Violence vs Nightmare

[mordekai]

I finished the game on all difficulties (not talking about I'm too young to die or Ultra Nightmare though), and I feel like UV is comfortably challenging without being insanely difficult like Nightmare. I kept dying on Nightmare because I either got pushed against a wall, got surrounded, I was backpedaling into demons, or jumping off ledges while trying to circle strafe and jump around. I think the game is good for the most part, but sometimes it's just too much, man.

In the beginning it's very difficult because you don't have all your cool ♥♥♥♥, but once you have double dash and all the suit upgrades with arsenal masteries, you're the king of the world.

Compared to 2016 Doom the monsters are way faster and deadlier, the ones in 2016 are complete ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ in comparison.

Cheers.

I wish there was perhaps costume/skin reward for beating it on Nightmare but there's only rewards for extra life mode and ultra-nightmare and ultra-nightmare would just make me hate the game plus that skin reward is kinda lazy, just a gold texture that replaces everything, however i do love the phobos skin from the extra life mode. https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/1023950914364526655/951FE956947A2E0166A7463B25FA7EC6FE2BCD51/

Yes the Phobos skin is cool af the combination of brown/dark metal with the golden/copper looking parts of the suit is perfect since it looks fancy but not too flashy like the golden one

Haven't started yet but how bad could it possibly be in comparison to DOOM 2016's nightmare?

At first it's harder but after you've mastered the loop Eternal becomes much easier than 2016. Just use your dash and don't try to play the game like you did with 2016 (rushing into enemies and thinking that Eternal has actual push forward combat) and you'll be fine.

It absolutely kills my OCD that the only challenge I have left is the damn UN challenge. Oh well

If you have a son or a daughter they will do it for you eventually... :)

Says the man who can kill me in Battlemode in 3 seconds. 2016 UN is much easier than this, I die on Cultist base alone on regular Nightmare 5+ times, while pulling UN on 2016 almost any time. But maybe we just have different skill set, spamming is very rewarding in D2016, while here, you will get the "low ammo" even if you try not to spam.

I completed both 2016 and eternal on nightmare, but I genuinely found 2016 to be harder especially in the first 3-4 levels, simply because there is no margin for error and 99 % of the time an imps fireball will one shot you if you not paying attention. Eternal is more forgiving in that you can always get back health and armor from a dangerous position. I think Eternal is a bit easier , most deaths I’ve had are because I got stuck on a wall or pressed a wrong key during weapon swap. I think the difference really is that eternal has a faster intense pace which really requires you to know when to go for the glory kill/blood punch , when to chainsaw and you really have to know your key-binds inside out, while in 2016 you can spam rockets , plasma and bullets more freely due to more ammo without much worry.

I'd say UN on Eternal is harder simply because of the 30% longer campaign and less cheese strats but on nightmare it's so ez. The campaign gives you 30 extra lives. 30 times you can mess up and come back from the dead lol.

But yeah, the first 3-4 levels are insane in difficulty in 2016. After you get the gauss cannon everything can be cheesed tho if you want to do so, i never used cheap runes and boring strats in 2016 and tried to combo like clockner most of the time tho so i probably shot myself in the foot there and gave myself a harder time in my UN runs.
