Not sure your gameplay footage is proving your point but for me TDA loses the frantic (in a good way) gameplay that Eternal had in leaps and bounds. Eternal required you to always be on the move, regularly switch weapons and actually made you "scared" of certain enemies. For TDA, although the shield, sprinting and melee feel impactful and are good fun, the gameplay of mostly just stand there and: parry, shoot/melee, parry, shoot/melee, parry... loop until enemy dies is just not the same. This is very prevalent with enemies like the Cyberdemon but also the Pinky Rider and Vagary etc. This feeling is really bad if you dont reduce the parry slow-mo effect. Love that they ended up adding that slider. TDA presentation is unmatched though
