Doom Eternal turns 2 years old this year

>Doom Eternal turns 2 years old this year
>Before that it was purists vs brutal Doom fanboys
>Eternal fans manage to make that look silly in comparison,even worse when 2016 came out
>Picking up fights with every FPS fan and can't handle it being any less than perfect
>Want every new FPS game to be like Eternal
>Retards who care about the shitty lore
>Fights in the fanbase on the same level of 343 vs Bungie in Halo
>Flooding with shitty overused memes,like "When the Doom music plays",Animal Crossing crossover,HDOOM and so on
>Basically fucking Warhammer levels and numbers of jokes
>The modding scene is kinda screwed too with GZDoom being held by entitled cunts who cannot make an optimized engine even for powerful PCs
>modders do GZDoom only mods these days
>Big shots who came in the last 4 years are either insufferable or fell hard with very few exceptions

How did anything like this happened to Doom? I know popularity played a big factor to it but did it get fucked over this hard?

its a fun game

reminder that the people shitting on eternal are a vocal minority and the game did extremely well

>I know popularity played a big factor to it but did it get fucked over this hard?
you answered your own question

the legit complaints were drowned over by the shittiest so it makes sense

>From the makers of Reelism
Neat.

>top 40 radio hits are good because they're popular
yes always follow popular opinion, brb gonna get vaccinated for my free donut

If anything I noticed how they keep bringing the game journalists being shit.
Which is true but Eternal got excellent reviews.
So what the fuck

>Pacing in Eternal sucks
>The lore and some of the new designs are bad
>Play in a different way is fun
>"NO YOU DON'T GET IT,YOU FUCKING CASUAL"

I wish there were more videos of MetaDoom but unless you're Project Brutality they don't care

I liked 2016 Doom a lot but all the changes in Eternal made it unfun

Remember when John Romero literally said he could not share any Doom related content from his development days because Zenimax still fucks him over that, to this day?

i don't mind eternal's platforming

Doomfags created a false narrative that they're being attacked by people who like the new games out of desperation to seem relevant and circle jerk over liking older games. Nobody gives a fuck which games you prefer, consuming media isn't a personality. Larping as a boomer isn't one either.
And Blood is still better than the entire Doom series.

There's a horrifying amount of source ports popping up, each wad I wanna try requires its own special snowflake source port now.

This whole shitshow reminds me of what's going on with Minecraft Java's modding scene. Some dumb bullshit starts because of a Discord, big names in the community disown what they were using and say "we'll make our own but BETTER!", more drama erupts because of it, and now everyone's fragmented across multiple incompatible resources.

Eternal is literally the greatest singleplayer FPS game ever made, with the only valid criticism being that the chainsaw animation gets real fucking old and should have been made the same as the crucible (and the crucible should have had a badass animation instead, its a fucking magical greatsword with bfg tier ammo and yet all we get is a swipe with a lightsaber sound WTF?). At the very least savagery rune should have effected chainsaw. Other than that one single issue, no game really hits the same peak as Eternal combat.

I don't even think most Eternal fans give a fuck about classic doom, and its really the old angry slowfag boomers who shit up every single Eternal thread with their autistic copy pasta spam within literal minutes of a thread being made. Fat scrub old men have made Eternal a forbidden topic on Any Forums all because they suck too much cock and got filtered by resource management and fast paced combat. Always screeching about their shitty corn mazes as if they aren't just linear hallway simulators because 99% of the map is locked off by keys.

eternal's combat is leagues better than 2016 but the story and the aesthetic are massive downgrades and i don't know why eternalfags sperg when this is pointed out
"y-you can just s-skip the s-story!" ok, but in 2016 i didn't want to skip it, because it wasn't shit

Because Eternal players like video games, its a video game for video game players, not movie gaymers. I've replayed Eternal countless times and I've never watched or listened to a single piece of lore once, and that goes the same for literally every single video game I play. The only "story" I want is some baddass boss walking out of the shadows saying some cryptic evil one liner before we fight to the death.

>"I like Doom Eternal"
>OH MY GOD DOOM ETERNAL THIS, DOOM ETERNAL THAT, WON'T YOU FAGGOTS SHUT UP ABOUT DOOM ETERNAL, ALL YOU TALK ABOUT IS DOOM ETERNAL AND SHIT UP EVERY THREAD TALKING ABOUT DOOM ETERNAL, I BET YOU HAVEN'T EVEN PLAYED THE ORIGINALS YOU FAGGOT WHICH ARE SO MUCH BETTER THAN DOOM ETERNAL AND I'M SICK OF YOU PEOPLE SAYING DOOM ETERNAL IS BETTER, JESUS CHRIST STOP TALKING ABOUT DOOM ETERNAL

Can I recklessly run around and gun down demons using whichever weapon I want at that given time?
>classic Doom
Yes
>brutal Doom
Yes
>Doom 3
Yes
>Doom 2016
Yes
>Doom eternal
Nope. Gotta constantly swap and rock paper scissors demons as certain guns just straight up are less effective against certain demons. Weakpoints; having to halt everything, take aim with the precision rifle to target specific areas in a chaotic run and gun game is autistic.

>shitter complains about weakpoints because he can't aim
lol, lmao

>but in 2016 i didn't want to skip it,
I did.
>because it wasn't shit
>implying

Worst part was that in 2016 they literally had forced story exposition during elevator rides, I swear to god these movie gaymers spend more time analyzing ebin slaya lore than actually playing the games.
