Sometimes in the hullabaloo of things stuff gets lost in the cracks as was the case here with the most recent DOOM trailer that was released. There have been so many new things going on due to Gamescom and a plethora of title releases that this new DOOM trailer was also missed by us here as well. We are sorry for that id Software and now we are going to make up for that. Granted it will only be in the way of showing off the new DOOM trailer to all but at least it is something. All of our readers out there should be in rejoice anyways as this is some intense new footage for DOOM and that is not just me whistlin' Dixie…
Some of those larger DOOM fans out there may be quick to point out that we get to see a lot of what Bethesda already showed us during their huge E3 conference a few months back but do note that there are some new things to spy for DOOM as well. Particularly the kind of post-trailer trailer that shows off what I can only make the assumption of as being the BFG for DOOM here. Of course that is not the Big Friendly Giant for anyone reading this that has never even touched DOOM since its first version oh so long ago. I'll let you Google or Alphabet that for yourself. That is the ne phrase we need to use right? Oh well. Back to DOOM.
DOOM — Gamescom Trailer
Pretty, crazy, and looks like a load of fun here for DOOM. I am glad that id Software decided to go down this path instead of the other each time I see something new for DOOM. This trailer included. I am only hoping that we get more than just the basic FPS style gameplay mixed in here when DOOM is finally complete. Having all of the other options to make maps and expand multiplayer are nice but we already have serialized FPS titles and I would hate to see DOOM just fall prey to the dime-a-dozen gameplay mechanic set up. It has such a strong history it would be a shame to see it go down to the pits of the place we are trying to destroy in DOOM.
What say you though? What do you think of DOOM after the above trailer and the showing of the new little bits? Do you still think it will be a huge success or will this DOOM only be hoping for the fame that Wolfenstein was able to reclaim? Let us know down in the comments and discuss. Make sure to keep things locked in for all things DOOM as we will place anything and everything that Bethesda doesn't let fall through the cracks for the game. Hopefully it will keep dragging us back time and time again.
