So pumped for Doom Eternal. Doom 2016 runs like a dream on all my systems. I loved how id Tech 6 could scale so well. Looking forward to trying out id Tech 7 here.

I put almost 250 hours into Doom 2016 (all single-player, never once touched multiplayer), so yyyeeeaaahhh I think you all can figure out how I am feeling about Doom Eternal's imminent arrival.
EDIT: I don't know if you guys saw the updated system requirements: https://slayersclub.bethesda.net/en/article/5Wx9QeorMSfMZCwLg6VpoS/doom-eternal-launch-details

Wonder if my 8700k will be enough to run on nightmare specs? Most of the time in gaming benchmarks it is fairly equal with the 9900k. I guess I'll have to wait and see.

Gotta admit I'm excited for this release too. Doom 2016 was excellent but repetitive. I'm on record here and the other place multiple times saying the PS1 version is what I consider the true version of Doom. I mean hell I still play the PS1 game pretty regular. It was slower paced, creepy music, scary atmosphere, it was just perfect. Doom 2016 is more running around like your hair is on fire shooting anything that moves.

Basically I think Doom should be more like Dead Space than Call of Duty with Demons but judging by the gameplay footage that they've released so far looks like I ain't get what I wished for.

Still looks to be a great game and I'm definitely in for a copy, just really want a true sequel to the PS1 games.
