Doom Eternal introduces render modes - make the game look it's playing the Gameboy.

[E_i]

Black and White
Dots (?)
Retro console
Retro handheld (Gameboy)
VHS
to name a few.

 

[Shake Appeal]

I can't even imagine playing Doom Eternal in black and white. So many lost visual cues.

 

[Edgar]

What about Ray God damn tracing

 

[IsThatHP]

And for the ladies.....hairy....

 

[Strings]

Classic actually looks really cool.

 

[Deleted member 11370]

That black and white mode needs to also have red, like in Madworld.

 

[NotLiquid]

I don't think that music track is in the main game. Wonder if that's new.

 

[The Main Event]

Where's the Switch mode.

 

[Lord Fanny]

I don't get the Dots one

 

[Rowsdower]

Finally, Doom on the Gameboy.

Edit: Does Cinematic make everything browner? lol

 

[ILikeFeet]

eh

these filters kinda suck

 

[Robin64]

The Retro Handheld one should (optionally) change the resolution to 160 x 144

 

[zombiejames]

The fast pace and Youtube compression don't exactly leave a good impression on these modes. They sound interesting, though, especially VHS.

 

[Qikz]

Classic looks so good.

 

[kiguel182]

This is like the reshade thing from Nvidia right?

It's neat but I tried it just a couple and had my fill lol

 

[MGPanda]

Most of them are... pretty terrible? Like, I could barely tell a difference on the VHS, Cinematic and Gritty ones, to name a few.

 

[Biteren]

these filters have been out for a while i think

 

[808s & Villainy]

May as well just be called green mode, because I certainly didn't have whatever super powered Gameboy that would have been running on

 

[RedHeat]

Neat, but I can see a lot these being really annoying to play in.

 

[nsilvias]

i was expecting a vaporwave render

 

[pswii60]

So giving Classic a try.

 

[Tatsu91]

What about Ray God damn tracing

i am conflicted about waiting to play the DLC until it comes out tbh

 

[Nature's finest mango]

Was there something similar in Doom 2016?

 

[DarkSora]

I barely noticed a difference in VHS mode.

 

[Lukemia SL]

These aren't for me sadly

 

[Biteren]

the only filter i really dig is the classic one

 

[Deleted member 16876]

Time to install and see classic mode and VHS

 

[GrrImAFridge]

These have actually been in the game for about a month now.

Edit: Make that almost two months:

Added New Render Modes in the graphics settings. Play the game in new stylized ways, such as Gritty, Cinematic, Black & White, DOOM Classic, and more.

[mogwai00]

They all suck

 

[Platy]

it is a weird conclusion to take from all those "doom ported to refrigerator" news we had, but i will take it

 

[Derktron]

I can't even imagine playing Doom Eternal in black and white. So many lost visual cues.

I think it looks cool.

 

[Stat]

Has anyone ever played with these filters? I always see these filters and it seems like more of a commercial than an actual mode that anyone ever uses

 

[orava]

ReShade

ReShade - Advanced post-processing everywhere.

reshade.me

Get "render modes" in pretty much every game.

 

[jelly]

Pretty cool.

Always wanted this in more games.

 

[Menx64]

Handheld is awesome.

 

[VorpalNonsense]

Werent these already in the game? Or maybe this is their first time coming to console versions? I was playing with this stuff weeks ago. Couple of them are fun but most of them seem to exist for "haha neat" and turning it back off immediately. My favorite was probably VHS.

 

[RedHeat]

Does anyone know how to enable them? Can't seem to find anything in the settings

 

[Pearljam and Earl]

I think the dots are maybe meant to be like a PSP kind of screen?!
That's what it reminds me of anyway.

 

[Conkerkid11]

I don't think that music track is in the main game. Wonder if that's new.

Click to shrink...

Dunno where it's used in the game, but as someone who's listened to the OST several times, it's definitely in there somewhere.

 

[Rodney McKay]

Terrible trailer to show these off.

Most were shown so quickly I couldn't even notice what was different about them before they moved in to the next one.

 

[ShinUltramanJ]

I don't like any of these.

 

[Nerdkiller]

I don't get the deal with VHS mode. It just seems like scanlines laid over the image. Where's the fuzzy image? Where's the low chroma and luma?

 

[Pyro]

Lmao at the intense music, bloody action, and just seeing "DOTS" appear on screen

 

[Dark Mantonio]

Instead of porting Doom to every system port every system to Doom.

 

[collige]

Kinda wish the B&W mode was actually posterized to 1 or 2 bits instead of just being a grayscale filter. It might introduce visibility problems, but they could just have a disclaimer.

 

[killer7]

That black and white mode needs to also have red, like in Madworld.

Click to shrink...

I agree.

 

[MiDoZ]

How about mouse and keyboard support for console instead of this shit.
