DOOM 2015 vs 2016

Hey,

It's probbaly been posted before but... holy shit newDOOM is so much faster and alive than when it first appeared in 2015.

When I saw that gameplay last year I just marked the game down as another boring slow shooter. I'm so glad I was wrong though, the game is great so far. It's not just the player movement that's faster either, the enemies run around way more; everything is more alive and chaotic.

I wonder if it was always like this behind the scenes, or if they made drastic changes after the 2015 reveal?

Clearly they did, Faster movement speed, Different enemies colors (No more boring 3 colors only), Music (Most of them)

So far nothing major except movement speed, So yeah they changed few things .

They didn't change the movement speed. As far as I can see all they did was change it from always walk with a sprint button, to always run with a walk button. In that gameplay trailer, during several of the fights the guy moves at the proper speed. Then he goes back to walking around like a tourist to show off the visuals or whatever.

Also, a higher FOV will give an illusion of faster movement even when the player is going the same speed, because the edges of the player view will move faster as they slip off the wider angle of view. Might be a contributing factor.

I think they should stick with 2015 version, it was more dark and atmospheric.

it's a showcase video - and there's a walking function in doom - so he's just showing things while walking

Eh, I prefer the newer version either way.

I think you're contrariating everything at this point for the sake of having something to say.
