Damn, hard to think ID went from Doom (2016) to this. Its not the worst game in the world, but it is an enormous downgrade. The game feels bad in most aspects and just feels like a checklist based game, the only saving grace is the sound design and OST which are still pretty good.

Who knows maybe in a future a give it a go again, but for now its staying shelved

Jugablemente es muy divertido, pero la historia es infumable

Holy fucking shit how could a game this bad be ever made. I feel like the devs wanted this game to be a cross between Fallout and Doom, but just failed miserably.

Firstly the story, it was really bad and boring. It uses the basic theres a big bad, find some people to defeat it with, which is fine. And the fine things end there. The story just doesn't take itself seriously, its like a parody of itself. For example at the start of the game, your mother just gets killed and you are just like: Eh, who cares, lets go kill some monsters. Every interactions with other characters just feel out of place, and with ten layers of irony on top.

The shooting itself was pretty good, it felt like Doom shooting. But the enemies. Oh the enemies. A lot of enemies just take so much fucking ammo to kill, they are just so spongy. Like for fucking real, why do I need to shoot you in the head THREE TIMES just for you to die??? The game isn't hard, just frustrating. The main way the devs tried to make the game harder is just spamming so much enemies that you run out of ammo. The other is making an enemy so spongy you run out of ammo. And when you come across a difficult encounter all you can realistically do is sit behind cover, and shoot like 2 bullets every 20 seconds until the enemies die.
There are some good moments with the abilities, they can be really cool. But them being on a long cooldown, and not having any chance to go close to enemies because you'll die really quickly if they start throwing grenades, it just makes abilities not usable. There are like 5 bosses in the entire game, but youll have like 20 encounters with them, and it just makes them boring too.

The world doesn't feel empty, just annoying. There are things to do, the 3 same things all over the map. So it too just gets boring and repetative. You can also find data pads with some lore on them, but with the story being so bad it's not even worth reading.
