A rhythm game?
Who did you get that from? Doom Eternal is in no way a rhythm game, weapon swapping was no different from 2016 to DE. The only enemy that 'requires' it is the marauder and god forbid you need to switch between two weapons.
No, better to strip everything that made Doom good - down to the fucking double jump. Bad joke.
You're so wrong it's almost like the version you played came from another reality.
Guns and ammo all loop back on eachother forcing you to use everything you have to keep shooting. You can't stick to one gun for more than a few shots lmao. Either you're larping and you didn't get past muraurder and you're just spitting a youtuber take.
First off, it's a first person shooter. What you've said is literally how first person shooters work. Not to mention: if you're suggesting that I'm larping while trying to suggest you don't have nigh infinite ammo for every encounter in eternal... idk, I'm gonna laugh at you with my other friends who love doom.
Second, are you suggesting that you like the fact that you only need to use one out of.. how many, 16 weapons?
Yes I'm sure that Dark Ages has appeal to kids and old people. I am neither.
Infinite ammo? Sure! Chainsaw a guy, more ammo!
You wanted to keep shooting? Sorry, there's no more ammo left for what you've unlocked, time to punch the chainsaw clock.
Out of chainsaw? Oh no! Guess you're stuck with the two guns you hate.
Your comment speaks like it was played below Easy mode. Some of us actually like the demons to hurt us.
Riight
This will be a very amusing conversation with my friends. Cope harder, dark ages is shit.
Edit: by the way, it takes 20 seconds to charge one pip of the chainsaw. If you've somehow used all of your resources in 20 seconds and the thing isn't dead; you're just bad. Not to mention infinitely spawning fodder for ammo.
