Are Women to blame for this disaster of a sequel?

[LeBeef]

Doom 2016 was fantastic.
Doom Eternal is a muddled pile of crap and you can't convince me otherwise cause it just isn't true. So who is to blame for this giant POS we all paid for? Im not happy to say it but all signs point to it being...

Women....or more specifically, Female SJW diversity Hires at "Woke" gaming companies.

Doom eternal goes out of its way in the credits to highlight how wonderfully diverse and inclusive the dev team is. "Look at all our women and people of color!" well huzzah!, thats great, whoopie for IDsoftware and liberals everywhere, except I didn't buy the game to to support a more diverse and inclusive gaming company and nobody else did either. I bought the game on the strength of how awesome doom 2016 was. Doom Eternal was sold to me based on that previous success, and its ridiculous amount of paltforming, rainbow colors, incoherent levels, challangeless enemies, and compete disregard for the storyline, rob it of the feel and experience of what made doom 2016 so great.

Levels here make no sense, maps that are supposed to be part of a human mars colony have no flow, 95% of these structures don't even hint at any logical purpose so why am I collecting big floating keys to access them? the combat is predictable and repetitive. Gore kills are fun when they are rare, having to do it every 30 seconds to refill ammo or armor makes it tedious and unenjoyable AND why are demons just leaving AMMO/HEALTH out everywhere for you to pick up? why are they providing convenient floating walls that allow you to jump to in order to advance and kill them? and WHY do I need to do this on EVERY ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ LEVEL simply to move around and pick up said keys.

When did doom become Super Mario Bros?

WTF happened to the half-life style story they were building? it was interesting and complex and layered with characters and depth, where was the resolution? Why is the earth radio referring to you as doomguy? is this supposed to be funny? cause it was cringe and made me want to uninstall and also regret paying for the title. Why are you in a floating castle in space with cuddly toys and deathmetal records and guitars?? because someone thought thats what would appeal to the "dudebros" ? it would be insulting if it wasn't so easy to picture the non binary landwhales who dream this garbage up.
The whole game is basically a bunch of random user created maps one after another with no link between them and no Story that makes any sense at all. "oooh lets makes the castles all goth and grimdark, thats "doomy" right guys?" Mindless garbage that screams "roundtable discussion" where every halfwit new hire on the dev team whose gaming experience amounts to a nintendo switch or a playstation 2 throws out an idea and because nobody wants to say, "No thats wrong", or "I don't think your a good fit for this project" so they included it all.

whats odd is that I've seen a strange similarity in Blizzards Overwatch, which also likes to push its "diverse and gender inclusive dev team" agenda. Levels that are made "safe" to the point of them not being enjoyable to play. There are no exploits. No places on the maps where someone gains an unfair advantage over other players. The environment stops being your enemy or your friend. instead its all equalized and equally boring, but hey! soldier76 is homosexual! yay liberalism! again I buy games to be challenged or immersed, not lectured to or mollycoddled because someone is worried I might be sad because its challenging or scary.

Are women the problem? Am I saying dev teams shoudln't hire women or be diverse ?

Of course not.

But the influence of devs whose primary gaming experience comes from platformers and not FPS games is woefully obvious here.

The focus needs to be on hiring actual gamers, who happen to be women or diervse. rather than female devs to fill some woke quota who may have played super mario at some point. There is a huge difference between the two and its very plain to see in ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ titles like this and Overwatch. It just boils down to industry laziness, and thats what Doom Eternal development feels like. Lazy.


This is not doom 2016, and Im incredibly disappointed with where the industry seems to be going.

LMAO THIS WAS AMAZING THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS YOU MADE MY DAY

[luh m]

"so political that a company allows poc and women to work on their game!!!1!1!!!"

[luh m]

the funny part is that most of the same people who worked on 2016 also worked on this game. not much has changed.

[UnKn0wN]

agree with the op, he is 100% correct, sad times.

By the huge wall of text, it is everything but lazy...

just because you write a lot, doesn't make it exempt from lazy. you have to think about what you write as well (which might be farfetched for you but it IS a thing i promise).

okay... show me one non-troll post from him.

i don't know, out of the MANY trolls, while his points are ridiculous, he feels like he puts TOO much effort into what he says to be a troll and there were times when i could see where he was coming from. don't expect me to scower through a bunch of threads to prove my point.

[Wylie28]

Bro. Why so much effort for a troll post?

For me, so far I have played through main campaign and the 1st DLC. I have the 2nd one too.

My thoughts on the game is that it has very nice graphics, and I love the HDR support.

For the game play, this not Doom. They changed it too much and not in a good way. It really is a 1st person perspective platforming game.

Prior to 2016, they had issues getting the original Doom feel right and yet somehow they managed to get off track and screw it up again with Eternal.

As for all the HR positive diversity stuff the OP is spewing, not sure. Moreover, don't care. However, some of the points he makes about the game are correct.

Lastly, playing this game made me want to reinstall 2016. I will be playing through 2016 again, soon.

***Note: Some people will defend any game they purchase, just because. I think that's the most accurate explanation for anyone who defends this game. Nothing more.

I see it all the time. People buy a game and because they spent money, defend it. Nothing more. No substance. They don't want to admit a mistake when they spent money.
