    Doom is wonderful. Eternal isnt more doom 2016 though, which is fine it’s a sequel. It’s the more intensive parts of doom that are amped up and forced upon you.

    In 2016 I rocked the pistol and machinegun and barely used any other weapon and I was happg

    In eternal, you either use every ability constantly and swap guns constantly or you die. It’s a big loop and not cycling every ability and gun makes you lose ammo or health or whatever. It’s a very jarring adjustment

      Sounds like Eternal might not be my thing, but who knows. One of the reasons I choose Doom over Eternal initially is because Doom lets me take my time and explore when I want to. Eternal seemed like it was go, go, go cortisol, cortisol, cortisol. And that was well above my limit.
