A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

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.
