DOOM 2016 Sequel announced

Post by RiboNucleic Asshat »



Thoughts? Hopes? Prayers?

Looks like a bunch of classic enemies are returning. I think I saw an Arch-vile and a pain elemental in there.

Personally I'm just glad they didn't name it DOOM 2.

Not to be confused with Eternal Doom, obviously. :P

Need to see gameplay before passing any form of judgement.

Should've named it doom 4 2
I'm happy for the announcement, but will have to see actual stuff to have an opinion

Maybe this one will have a real level editor, instead of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater Park Creator with demons.

I'm just hoping they push the game to as far a limit as they can. As much as I loved DOOM '16, I always felt like there weren't enough demons around at any one point to pose a significant threat.

Perhaps that is because of how the game plays, with all the bells and whistles, though?

Apparently they're planning on showing gameplay on Aug 10th at QuakeCon.

I agree. Even Nightmare was a breeze. Really fun, though!

Looks like the Arachnotron, Pain Elemental and Arch-Vile will be back. I'm hoping for the returning Doom 3 enemies (Cherup, Trite, Wraith & Maggot mostly). But I think most of them will have to have their combat abilities redone/redesignet. I don't think a Maggot will be super interresting once Pinkies are thrown in the mix.

I'm also hoping for some of the other new monsters in the clip to NOT be simple buffed variants of other monsters. Seems there are some Imp and Baron variants in there that don't seem all too interresting (to me, at least).

This looks good aesthetically, and if it only does what 4 did I'll be pleased. Hopefully they have boss enemies like the cyber demon and mastermind show up as regular enemies. Minibosses outside of boss arenas would be excellent.

Either way, between this, the new wolfenstein that got announced, Rage 2, and Quake Champions, things are looking pretty good.
