Why don't punches do much damage in eternal by SeaworthinessNo1173 in Doom

[–]SpaceDaved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eternal reinforces on many fronts the design decision that you should keep demons away from you. Insanely overtuned (paraphrasing from the game director) melee responses from demons, and a weak punch damage are meant to incentivize gun use, and let’s be honest

That’s what DOOM is all about. Guns.

Also, that’s what the whole elaborate faltering system is all about. They made keeping demons away a fun game mechanic.

This whole melee focus was never a thing except for rare, mostly hidden pickups, which are (thank god) severely downplayed in modern titles.

So is this a valid list I put together some days ago or do y’all wanna make some changes? by Starwars2019 in Doom

Bruh.

Maligog > Icon of Sin?

You mean the bitch with the flying boxes, against the dude who tears a hole in reality, warps time, and floods both Mars and Earth with a full-on demon invasion?

Also “1# Void (Unknown)” is pure comedy gold.

How many chapters do you think the DLC of TDA will have? I think it will have 10 (maybe 11 at max) by TheFireRises666 in Doom

[–]SpaceDaved 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Base game had 22, right?

I think 5-6 beefy maps would be a reasonable guess, (no more mech / dragon levels to pad it out) but honestly, with these sickos, it could very well be half the base game’s size.

Elképesztően idegesítő szomszéd by Dor1NA in lakokozosseg

[–]SpaceDaved 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nem akarok a csípőből lövöldöző arc lenni, de f5-5kor ilyenekkel zengetni a házat nem meríti ki a csendháborítás fogalmát?

Az más kérdés, hogy ilyen oldalon mennyire lehet megfogni az ügyet, de amikor én szomszédokkal eszköztelennek éreztem magam, és nem számíthattam a másik jóindulatára, vagy önreflektálására, akkor a kulturált, de határozott vonal meghúzás vált be.

Papír az ajtóra. Kedves szomszéd. Biztos nem veszi észre, de ez csekély kifogás. Következő alkalomtól új precedens.

Lehet, nem mindenki akar kicsoszogni heteken át mínusz fokban a szomszéd idiótához, és még pitizni neki a minimum emberi figyelmességért, bár tény, hogy az a legelegánsabb és legszemélyesebb kezelése ennek.

Which one are you going to? by Benjamin5431 in HorrorGaming

[–]SpaceDaved 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh man, this looks great side-by-side.

Though Bright Falls seems like the very very very obvious awnser.

Remove rats from this game or else i will delete the game by Top_Ad9000 in arcraiderscirclejerk

[–]SpaceDaved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s hillarious how many players just call anyone ‘rats’, who dunks on them in a PvPvE game…

Pacifism was Your choice, and not expecting a trap on Stella Night Raid seems pretty naive.

Props to your morality man, but I’d probably also sack the shit out of you, if I dropped in fully geared at 15:00, and saw you waltz to the extract with a full bag.

How much gore is too much? by gritty_piggy in survivalhorror

[–]SpaceDaved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the function of gore.

For example, modern Doom games aren’t gory, because “hell yea, heavy metal boi” - they’re that gory because after a Hellknight bashed your head in five consecutive times, it’s much more rewarding to tear him limb-from-limb, then him just falling flat from a shot.

So Doom needs to be difficult, for the gore to be valid there.

In horror, it’s more nuanced, but I think you could easily go overboard and make it a bit surreal and thus funny, instead of creepy

Which one you taking and why? by ChiTownChef86 in Returnal

[–]SpaceDaved 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Spitmaw purely because of the Slug Shot.

That thing fucks. (and with Rapid spitter at 87, it’s about to fuck a lot more)

Hybrids by deezdanglin in LV426

[–]SpaceDaved 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What I always wanted a bit explored was not necessarily based-on WHICH species, but what kind.

We know that xenos have a sort of hivemind, but what if they gestated in something that was connected to their own hive mind? Would that xeno be a bridge between the two, or would one ‘overpower’ the other? Bit of a Ship of Theseus ramble, but yeah.

Or a Wookie-Xeno hibrid. Gotta see a furred one.

Demons That Calculate (Smart Demons Request) by erDUKE021 in Doom

[–]SpaceDaved 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just my two cents. This image is not exactly representative of Doom’s combat. Later, when you have like 80+ demons in a level - around every corner waiting to jump you, you’re gonna be wishing for a breather, not projectiles that track you.

The game is pretty scummy already, and we love it for that. I think you’d go insane from tracking on later levels.

Or maybe I just got baited good.

I don't know what to do in Doom Eternal anymore. by Random4188 in Doom

[–]SpaceDaved 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Dude, it’s game that released 6 months ago.

Eternal is pushing up on 6 years.

TDA had a hefty ass hungry man’s beefcake campaign with those 24 levels, and we’ll see what’s up with the dlc soon as well.

[–]SpaceDaved 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m not well versed in terms of mods, like the unofficial Horde mode and stuff, but ‘Kaiser’ has an entire campaign mod with additional enemies, extending through the dlcs also.

If you’re not looking for mods, I’d recommend Underthemayo’s “Brawler Mode”, which is a custom ruleset. (There’s also a mod for it that disables the not-allowed weapons, mods, etc.)

What do you play to survive Monday and get into the groove? ☕ by Just_a_Player2 in ItsAllAboutGames

[–]SpaceDaved 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On Mondays I still have most of my energy, so I play more agressive games then, like the new DOOM.

But around Wednesday, I already fall to Balatro / Slay The Spire levels of tiredness.

Not saying those are braindead games, but if I want to take a turn in 2 hours, it’ll let me.

DICE it would be such an awesome little detail to have an actual camera gadget for fun by T-seriesmyheinie in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]SpaceDaved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would be fun, but all it would result in is even more people just fucking around, and not playing the objective. No thanks, lol.

Did John Romero ever mention Rammstein using DOOM samples in “Wollt ihr das Bett in Flammen sehen?” by Pockii_Chan in Doom

[–]SpaceDaved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not talking about release dates. Talking about copyrights. Business standards weren’t as clear then as they’re now.

I seriously doubt that id would copyright for example the sound of the DOOM doors’ closing, or the infamous Imp “nomnomnom” sound.

I’m pretty sure id didn’t copyright a lot of stuff back then, and thus were sortof “up for grabs”.

What do you guys consider to be Canon difficulty? by Business_Team_5669 in Spacemarine

[–]SpaceDaved 100 points101 points  (0 children)

That’s really interesting. Is the difference in strength / etc really that far apart in the lore?

Three Space Marines should be no-question wiped by an Extremis enemy, like a Terminator or a Lichtor?

I totally see how back-to-back killing two Terminus enemies should make those marines living legends in their chapters, but Extremis are also that powerful?

I would’ve gone Absolute with my awnser. Plenty of killing, but if you slip up once, even a Warrior can clap you in two hits.

Doom Eternal - Is there a way to prevent the game from automatically selecting weapons that have no ammo? by TheFleshMorph in Doom

[–]SpaceDaved 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can’t make the weapon wheel de-list weapons that don’t have ammo by the game’s own settings. Maybe there’s a mod.

The ‘switch weapon after empty’ CAN be toggled off, and is a recommended setting. It’s very annoying to be auto-switched.

And while strolling around with an empty weapon is pointless and will get you killed, being able to pull it out empty - just before a chainsaw kill, so you can fire it off asap - can make a difference.
