I just don’t like the anxiety that comes with constantly being low health and low ammo that happened the last time I tried Doom Eternal. (Admittedly, I’ve never played Doom 2016.)
Doom 2016 and Doom eternal are actually pretty different, and I preferred 2016 because I didn’t constantly run out of ammo. Eternal is more arcade-ish, while 2016 feels more like a classic shooter game.
Yeah, in Eternal, it seemed that once I got past the first few areas, if I didn’t do glory kills, I’d be, within seconds, nearly dead and almost completely out of ammo (if not out of ammo).
You’re saying Doom 2016 isn’t like that.
Like, don’t get me wrong, glory kills are awesome, but I feel they should be optional flairs to spice up gameplay, not a required function just to progress. That’s what bothered me. It effectively locked out of a Doom game no less anyone who didn’t like the glory kill mechanic. Personally, as a long-time fan of the franchise, that felt kinda cheap.
Just in case you don’t already know, but you can ignore the glory kill mechanic.
I can?
makes the game a fair bit harder though
How much harder?
