I liked this game better than Doom Eternal
Tell me more, why for you is that the case?
I think doom 2016 does theme/story and just the over all 'fantasy' of being the doomguy WAY better. I really missed it in Doom:E. However I do really enjoy the way they built the gameplay loop into this frantic dance of violence.
My biggest issue with Eternal was that it seemed like keeping the story consistent wasn't a priority.
I always liked the idea of doomguy, an absurd character, being grounded in a little lore and just playing around with him decimating any kind of plot a villian was comming up with.
Doom:E seemed to build a bunch of lore that no one was really asking for. Does anyone really want to know "Who was doom guy?" I didn't. I really enjoyed him being barely a character, more a force of nature trying to eridicate demons. Rip & tear!
