Eternal was still a good game and all, but I preferred the more pure Doom experience of 2016 (holy hell was that 8 years ago??). The platforming sections and other additions didn't add to the game imo. It went from the first game when he literally pushed aside a screen as a metaphor for get all that extra out of here, let me play the game, to a lot of extra in the second game.

A new game (assuming a similar single player campaign game) would be great, but I'd prefer it return to more pure Doom

 

[StereoVsn]

I really hope it's going to be more like Doom 2016. I wasn't a big fan of Eternal between its resource management crap to its platforming to the story. It wasn't a bad game but wasn't for me.

 

[Fabieter]

Hopefully they make it a slower paced horror like game.

 

[amigastar]

I would like to play Doom 2016 again but i miss the disintegration of the enemies like in Doom Eternal.

 

[TerribleAtThisGame]

I keep buying Doom games yet I keep liking them less and less. I'm not even sure what I'd like to see for a new one because my take would be commercial poison.

I'm sure it'll be more AI Doom Meme levels of in-jokes, shitty corporate suit ideas of what's "really Metal" and endless arena fights.

 

[The_Observer]

On the one hand, cool. But on the other, id should have rebooted Quake in a similar way as they did with Doom. Then after that come back with the next Doom that melts our faces again. It's too close to Eternal to be a big jump...

 

[Perrott]

The Doom franchise has already sold over 10m copies on PC alone

Must be some kind of shitty alt-timeline you come from.

Doom Eternal's underwhelming sales played a major role in keeping Zenimax in their precarious financial situation during the company's last year as a privately owned business.

Also, what the previous user meant was that individual modern Doom entries are not 10+ million sellers, not that the overall series hasn't reached that figure when combining all SKUs of all games.

 

[SALMORE]

Nice ! Doom 2016 & Eternal are one of my favorites from the previous generation ! hopefully the 3rd one has a semi metroidvania world and vehicles / power suits to use

 

[Dr.Morris79]

Yay, more Mario Doom.

 

[delfrickintree]

can't believe that i am saying this... but after super mario doom 64 eternal.
stop fucking touching doom you idiots.

yo is that j-roc in the hizzy?

 

[Kssio_Aug]

I loved Doom 2016 and Eternal, so that's great news!

But I would also have liked a Quake revival.

 

[adamsapple]

Hopefully they make it a slower paced horror like game.

Like Doom 3?

 

[The_Observer]

Like Doom 3?

Doom 3 was awesome in its own way. Actually, that's why I like Doom 2016 more overall than Eternal (which I also love) because 2016 was closer to Doom 3. Eternal went too arcade.

 

[Fabieter]

Like Doom 3?

They kinda can't go wrong either way but i prefer horror shooters overall do yes I really liked the original doom 3. But I will play doom 3 either way tbh.

Actually I would love a horror reboot for gears as well.

 

[Pedro Motta]

Good thing I already setup a Bethesda account on the previous one, so it will take less effort with this one.

 

[Roronoa Zoro]

They don't have the balls to make it exclusive. MS spends billions buying studios to take command of the console market. The problem is, they lack the balls, the nuts, to actually make the studios do their jobs (get to work on Fallout Todd) and to make them exclusive to Xbox and Windows.

Multiplat Doom incoming.

Maybe they shouldn't buy franchises that have most of their copies sold on competitive hardware then.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

I enjoyed the 2 Doom reboot games. I'm not sure we need another right now. Hopefully this one brings something fresh to the table. A sequel to the last 2 games would bore me.

 

[rodrigolfp]

Doom around Xbox?

Fuck Xbox. Doom = PC.

 

[Fabieter]

Doom around Xbox?

Fuck Xbox. Doom = PC.

Every pc is a xbox

 

[rodrigolfp]

Every pc is a xbox

Gladly no.

 

[Mister Wolf]

Hopefully it plays more like 2016 than Eternal.

 

[TintoConCasera]

Every pc is a xbox

?

Mine is just a box.

 

[twilo99]

who make dis xbox no studios left ?

 

[DAHGAMING]

Happy to have another Doom, loved the last 2 and the series. Maybe after that and hopefully Machinegames get to finish there Wolfenstein trilogy we can get a new Quake.

 

[ZehDon]

Honestly, after Doom Eternal, I'm not even sure what else you can do in that vein of things. Doom Eternal oversaturated the player with resource management, and took the speed about as high as you can go without it devolving into a mess of button combos. I'd honestly hoped id were tapping into Quake's cosmic horror for a Doom 3-style Quake reboot.

If we're getting another Doom, I'll obviously play it, but I have no idea what you can do in that space that isn't just "more of the same".

 

[Astral Dog]

DOOM 2016 and DOOM Eternal are among the best FPS ever made so we will see if Microsoft doesn't mess up

 

[DanielG165]

The DOOM duology are two of the best FPS games we've ever gotten, so I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what a new game in the franchise looks like. Will it be a follow up to Eternal, with the Slayer being awoken again after several years? Or, will it be separate from the duo's continuity?

 

[MagiusNecros]

If they do put out a 3rd actual Doom game I'd suggest less jumping, better ammo economy and a less convoluted story. Eternal on the story front was just blegh. I preferred 2016's keep it simple stupid type of story over what we got in Eternal.

The Fortress of Doom was cool stuff though.

 

[Gtafans93]

Please be doom eternal with all levels following the super gore nest level design. Love that level so much, secrets 10/10, transversal and openess. Or more 2016 level design. You had to look for those secrets and it was far better for it me thinks

 

[Dr. Samuel Hayden]

Good. ID is one of the only Xbox studios I still have any faith in. Hope it's more like 2016 than Eternal though.

 

[Snowdonhoffen]

Wonder if Id and Mick Gordon patched things up so he can come back and score this new Doom. If not, that's going to be a huuuge loss
Don't get me wrong, I liked what Andrew Hulshult and David Levy did on The Ancient Gods DLCs, but they were clearly trying to sound like Mick (which makes sense, obviously) to the point David even used some samples from the metal choir Mick recorded for the base game in one of the tracks, but I'm sure having Mick back would instantly be a win, hell, having the 3 of them collaborating would also be sick.

 

[ResilientBanana]

Fuck, I wanted Quake.

 

[ResilientBanana]

Hopefully they make it a slower paced horror like game.

Play a different game, that's not what doom is.

 

[Arsic]

Hopefully not some mobile chibi shit…

I want Doom Slayer back clapping cheeks. Straight gaping the devil himself,

 

[SNPlayen]

It will be open world live service called DoomFall

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

 

[Hudo]

What the fuck do I need to do to get a new Quake game? Not that I don't like Doom, I like it quite a lot (even Doom 3). But Quake is just fucking Quake, man. Come on.

 

[Draugoth]

There's no way it's Doom Eternal 2 right?

 

[Negotiator101]

Some sort of cryptic message?

 

[ChuckeRearmed]

I still want Quake. I don't want Doom.

 

[Hudo]

Some sort of cryptic message?

I wish my second ex-girlfriend was as "cryptic" as that.

 

[FeastYoEyes]

Eternal has only gotten better with age. I'd argue the Marauders are still a misstep but I think as a whole, it's a nice evolution of Doom. Excited to see what they come up with here.

 

[Generic]

New Doom game!*

*Four player online co-op, with battlepass.

It would be better than Doom 2016.
