Doom (2016) just launched on GOG, and it's on offer. I purchased straight away as I really enjoyed this one. Wasn't expecting to see more Bethesda games on GOG after Microsoft purchases Zenimax.

My biggest issue with Eternal was that it seemed like keeping the story consistent wasn't a priority.

I always liked the idea of doomguy, an absurd character, being grounded in a little lore and just playing around with him decimating any kind of plot a villian was comming up with.

Doom:E seemed to build a bunch of lore that no one was really asking for. Does anyone really want to know "Who was doom guy?" I didn't. I really enjoyed him being barely a character, more a force of nature trying to eridicate demons. Rip & tear!
