It's like they threw out everything that made Doom 2016 good. Environments feel congested (basically small arenas connected by long platforming sections), they made ammo absurdly limited which takes a lot of freedom out of the gameplay and kills the pacing, and the marauder is the utter antithesis to everything the Doom series stands for. I don't know how it got so much praise.

gotta use the chainsaw on small guys more often, and make sure you're going for weak spots all the time

if you get the exploding barrel perks you can run around punching barrels for free ammo

I disagree 2016 is trash in comparison

the limited ammo argument has been debunked to reveal bad players so many times i dont even have to explain it

No shit, but I shouldnt have to chainsaw every 5 seconds. Doom is supposed to be all gas, no breaks.

marauder dies insanely quick to super shotgun -> ballista quick swap. chainsaw will always regen one pip. how far are you? it opens up a lot

I guess if you met marauder you're far enough in to know if you'd like it

This sounds like a failure to adapt.

That said, I do think Doom 2016 was better.

Doom Eternal was still good, but Doomguy's basic melee attack going from moderately effective to completely useless was fucking lame. He should really be able to squash a basic bitch zombie with a single punch.

Also, the Marauders do kind of suck to fight against, even after you do figure out how to easily deal with them. They do stall the momentum of the game. Should've just been one boss fight.

I prefer Eternal. You get plenty of ammo. You just need to cycle weapons. And the combat is way faster than 2016.

Oh, yeah, once you get the Super Shotgun and upgrade it, it really crushes the other weapons in effectiveness. The other guns suddenly become very niche, because the SSG giving you armor for free is just too good.

Yea I dont like eternal either. Maybe Im just getting too old but theres too much management in the game with the cool downs and different weapon types etc

Isn't that what switching to the chainsaw is all about? No breaks, out of ammo? Run headlong into mooks while brandishing the chainsaw.

I hardly ever fully ran out of ammo and that was on ultraviolence. and if I did run out it was usually before a boss room where there's a bunch of stuff on the ground anyway
