Did someone tell the devs that enemies that run around are not fun? And they made them incredible bullet sponges too - the guards in undercover levels take 3! hits to the head and 3 MAGAZINES to the body from the pistol. I like everything about the game otherwise, it's just not fun to actually play
TNO and TOB were amazing reboots, right up there with the treatment DOOM got. Too bad they flopped it so hard with this one. Gameplay is mostly the same (very good) but everything around it is a severe downgrade. The level design, the combat encounters, the pacing, the tone of the story, are all just bad. ESPECIALLY the cutscenes. Good lord almighty in heaven, the cutscenes.
I put 40 hours into this 7 hours or so game.
Despite the description talking about similiarities to Doom/Heretic, game feels more like Wolfenstein 3D, due to the map layout. However there are more weapons, spells, upgrade system, minimap (thank God!), varied, interesting enemies and more. Yet another good oldschool throwback, however, the optimization is horrendous. I know, my laptop isn't exactly state of the art, but <20 FPS? This is simply unacceptable, system requirements shouldn't be so high. 8 GBs of RAM and 2GB for VRAM for such visiuals is... well, you saw the screenshots, right? P.S. DO NOT USE HIGH SETTINGS. It limits your vision and cuts the framerate significantly.
