DOOM: The Dark Ages (2025)

Basically this. Firstly, I would have fired whoever pitched that Doom... DOOM, should have a parry mechanic. All of the gameplay videos I've see watched show a brownish-gray color pallet, annoying bullet hell gameplay and yea... a completely out of place parry system. A far cry from the really...

Yea they can get away with whatever at this point. Please only compare our new BS product to the GTX 580; you'll see that it's worlds better and well worth our blursed asking price.

DOOM: The Dark Ages (2025)

Doom 2016 was such a breath of fresh air at the time... just a nicely polished modern fps with good pacing and level design. It's like they went out of their way since then to steer away from what made that one so great. Simple to pick up, mostly linear design with cool guns and a killer...

DOOM: The Dark Ages (2025)

Argh, after all that nonsense with game pass, a forced driver update, and trying several ini tweaks... game is locked to 16:9 and no multi-monitor support. Trash. Welcome to modern PC gaming

DOOM: The Dark Ages (2025)

I still haven't been able to try it lol, Game Pass keeps making a bm on my computer. Oblivion remaster seems quite happy though, so go figure. If I have time tonight to fire it up on another machine I'll try and post my thoughts.

DOOM: The Dark Ages (2025)

Unpacking game files now, if it's better than Eternal I'll be happy. I don't expect it to grab me like Doom 2016 though. Rip and tear good sirs.

DOOM: The Dark Ages (2025)

Eh I'll try it out... loved 2016, not so much for Eternal. The latter just felt like an absolute chore to play, always rushing around and doing arena-style battles. Get Unreal Tournament out of my dooms plzz k thx.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered

I've been playing it because Game Pass... it's, fine. Looks great, combat is still trash but fun enough to mess around with here and there. I did play the original way back in high school/college days, but it was very not my cup of tea and I kinda hated it. Wanted to love it, though... same with...

Half Life 2 - 20th Anniversary Thread

Bought an Index secondhand just for Alyx, which is something I wouldn't have done back in 2020 because of the cost. I DID play both the VR and the modded version that allows for a mouse and keyboard to be used, but it's entirely different with the headset (obviously). If you can grab a complete...

Question Hyped for the 9070XT

Yea I think I'm all set with graphics cards for awhile... market needs to chill out but I don't see that happening in the near future. The last brand-new card I bought (not refurb or open box) was a 6900XT in June or July of 2022; only because it was a couple hundred bucks off and had a $30 MiR...

Who got a 7900XTX or 7900XT?

I didn't think I'd pick up a 7900XTX honestly, but the performance jump from the 6900XT was considerable enough for me to source one. Having said that, though, I couldn't tell you when the next GPU upgrade for me might be. Many contributing factors, none of them of the optimistic variety.

Oh i get it now, it's Blackwell because it's a deep dark 'black' well of pricing nonsense and possible GPU failures.
