I don’t want to chainsaw enemies for ammo, you never had to do that before. I also can argue with acrobatics; I feel it ruins the flow of Doom. I want no reloads and a big ass pool of ammo, should I be able to scrounge up said ammo, just like every other Doom. Even Doom 3 was better in this aspect, I didn’t feel forced to switch weapons every 15 seconds because I’m running out of ammo. The max ammo carry limitations and acrobatics really put me off. Doom (2016) was awesome, the additions did not improve it IMO. I understand this might be an unpopular opinion, but I’m fine with that. It just felt like a lot was forced. You had to switch weapons because ammo carry was limited. You had to do platforming because that’s the only way to traverse in many areas.

"I don't like it because it's not like the original"

It's a different game, with different mechanics.

By that logic, Metal Gear Rising is a very bad stealth game.

I didn’t say “Eternal is a bad game”, I said “I don’t like it”. Don’t conflate the two. It’s just my feelings towards the game, I realize many others like it. I don’t care for the changes they made.

For what it's worth, I totally get you.

Fallout 4 is a bad Fallout game. However, that doesn't make it a bad game.

It would be silly for me to say I don't like it on the grounds that it's a bad Fallout game.

I simply don't like Fallout 4, whether it's part of the franchise or not.
