Doom Eternal previews
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
Can you do a little summary of these refinements?
Thanks.
There is any preview where the players just fight with weapons without using melee fatality? I want to see the improvement on dead animation, ragdoll, etc. (Also I'm just not a fan of melee finishers in a fast paced shooter)

Marty says they'll do ray tracing better than everyone else with DOOM Eternal, so I'm looking forward to that.
It doesn't seem too distracting in combat but I'm not a fan of it. I think the game conveys 'old-school' without the HUD needing to.
I really don't like the fact the game could be twice as long as Doom 2016, the gameplay was really fun but the game was too long for his own good :/
Honestly they tackled this in the presentation. They know this was one of the small issues from the first game, they said that this time it's going to be bigger but much more varied in terms of settings, situations and mechanics. They said some mechanics are going to be introduced in the latter half of the game to keep it fresh. For what I played (first three levels), the changes in scenery and situations were really noticeable, even inside the same level.
The campaign being longer is a turnoff for me. 2016 felt really long in the tooth. Hopefully they find a way to keep up the excitement throughout.
I can't wait to play more. If anyone speaks Dutch and is interested, I made a separate interview with Marty Stratton for IGN Benelux (and a preview ofc).
I'm hoping this turns out just as well as I expect from the preview sessions.

Wonder how the season pass unlocks work since the game (as far as we know) only has a finite amount of levels to play. At least in single player. It would make more sense if the game had some sort of random mission generator that creates new missions for you.
Or maybe you just unlock most of it by playing multiplayer.
As a fan of completely offline games I'm a little disappointed by it having a season pass, as that most likely means that content can't be earned offline.
