    They did learn a lot from Eternal. Mainly that people loved it and people complaining about the Marauders just need to git gud.

      “git gud” is honestly never a good defense against any given criticism. Saying this as someone who’s reasonably gud

      Someday I’d like to hope our game design sensibilities evolve enough that we can stop deflecting every negative review with “git gud”. There are absolutely things that hard games can design badly that don’t add to the overall enjoyment of the game.

      Marauders were one of those things.

        Except they’re not. Most people like them and agree that they do add to the overall enjoyment of the game. Hell, I loved that part in the DLC when you fight two of them. It’s literally just a couple of people who are mad about them. So, yeah, git gud.

          The fact that everyone but 4 people like Taylor Swift make her music great. The fact that all but 4 people use Tik Tok make it a great social media app. The fact that all but 4 people voted for Trump makes him a great president.

          Or…

          Maybe…

          Doom has a history and is shifting further away from it in an attempt to capture a larger audience, like the skibidi toilet crowd that needs 24/7 overstimulation and nearly has a stroke when they need to use more than two neurons to perform an action…

          2016 was good enough. More of that wouldn’t alienate anyone.
