Id Bethesda will make millions on this. The journalist will praise it for returning to the roots of the series. The future is now gentleman's, let us prepare our wallets for an inevitable incline.

"Nostalgic" trailer for DHOOM, one that will certainly activate the feels of dem Doom players... as imagined by someone for whom a vid or two of someone else's BD playthrough was by far the closest he/she ever came to actually playing Doom.

So much gameplay in that gameplay trailer. Please, stop with all this gameplay, there's too much of it.

And judging by the trend with "kill animations" in gamebryo, we are going to watch that 50,000 times during the game.

:hmmm:
So, a "gameplay" trailer which barely has any gameplay. Hell, most of the scenes are blatantly recicled from the videos shown at E3. And what's up with almost always ending the video with the Doomguy being killed? This shit started with Doom 3. Where's the fun in that?

What are you guys bitching about? that is a fair representation of what it would feel playing this game. A glimpse of gameplay followed by a short unskippable cutscene kill animation.

It was hilarious when they did the E3 presentation.
The Id guy starts trying to hype the shit up talking about how the original games were all about fast-paced action and a cool set of weapons. Then the hall goes dark, the video starts and we see doomguy slooooowly walk towards some brown shit in a middle of a piss-coloured level, and shoots them, and then THE FUCKING GAME GOES SLOWMODE WHILE HE CHANGES WEAPONS.
I mean, they didn't even try to make it look fast-paced, it's like it's the fucking same PC from doom 1, who's now a 70 years old fart that has to change glasses everytime he needs to pick another weapon...

To be fair, the game is probably aimed at the teens that never played the original Dooms, so to them it probably looks fast paced.
Damn console kiddos

Doom 3?

Of course, that at least had the stupid "survival" shit going for it.
