        I don‘t buy any digital copy of a game for over 45 bucks, doesn‘t matter what it is… I also haven‘t finished DOOM 2016 yet and haven‘t even started Eternal. Not because they‘re bad games or because I don‘t like FPSs, but because I have so much shit to play and so little time.

        Competition is fierce and asking 80 bucks when I got the predecessors for less than 5 each is just not happening. Just because games cost more to produce doesn‘t magically make customers have more money and time. It‘ll make release weeks stinkers outside of your GOTYs and makes more people wait or go back to 20+ years worth of other games that aren‘t 80 bucks.

        $20 is the limit for me. I'm perfectly fine waiting a few years to play the game, if it still exists by that point. If it doesn't, then I'm glad I didn't waste my time.

          Seeing how they screwed over Mick Gordon, the composer for the previous two installments, I'll vote with my wallet and skip this one. My backlog is big enough as it is anyway.

            1. It’s $80
            2. It’s on Gamespass, where I assume a lot of doom fans who might have otherwise purchased are likely to be.
            3. It’s shouldered up against Expedition 33 and Oblivion Remake, both over $20 cheaper and highly acclaimed.

            Also, it reviewed well but with some annoying caveats.

              It's also 80€ in Europe. Everyone I talked to is waiting for the price to drop, including me.

              $130 NZD, I don't want to guess what $80 USD games are going to "convert" too 😮‍💨

                Let's see

                • The game itself takes away a lot of pieces of the formula that made 2016 and Eternal so good
                • $80 price tag
                • BDS boycott
                • Denuvo

                I'm shocked that it's not selling, absolutely shocked.

                  Microsoft (and by extension id and Bethesda) are a priority target for the BDS boycotts against Israel

                    Google says BDS stands for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (against Isreal.)

                          Her name was Billie, daughter of the original Billy Blaze.

                          Luckily it was cancelled. Looks like the folks who played the original weren't keen on playing a slow mobile cashgrab.

                          But the non-gameplay trailer was nice. https://youtu.be/BpneMd8xTFw

                            They tried in 2019.https://youtu.be/Znd0kUXpdts https://youtu.be/BpneMd8xTFw

                            For some reason they cancelled it after the gameplay trailer was released.

                                For me anyway, my loss of interest in the DOOM franchise began when they started dehumanizing the Doom Marine and started stacking fantasy/medieval elements to the main protagonist and his arsenal. They turned a futuristic space marine who just got punished for punching an officer into some sort of fantastic demigod thing. It got really bad in Doom Eternal already.

                                I like my DOOM games when it is a battle of sci-fi military forces against demonic forces. Human technology versus the hordes of hell. But now with Dark Ages Bethesda turned the franchise into a more violent and edgy Skyrim.

                                  Since the company boyscotts BDS. I guess it means the company is pro Isreal.

                                          The game is basically less Doom & more WH40K-ish.

                                          You want a more Doom-like game ? Try SELACO eventhough it's early access, the 1st chapter is long & fun & guess what the devs told the anti-woke mob to fuck off & the devs are getting cancelled for it.

                                          It's basically F.E.A.R+Classic Doom graphics (Uses the GZDoom engine)
