\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After a recent article on Kotaku<\/a> that makes for good reading, I wanted to throw in my two cents about the mentioned concepts of Doom 4<\/em>.<\/p>\n

As many of you by now know, Doom 3<\/em> was moreso a retelling of the story of Doom 4<\/em>. Kotaku’s article mentions that Doom 4<\/em> was originally going to be a retelling of Doom 2<\/em>. Right away that sounds like fantastic news, but it went further than that. As in the second Doom<\/em> game, this concept would have taken place on Earth. That and it seems the struggle of humans in this new world would have been explored, rather than in the original Doom 2<\/em> where you didn’t meet anyone who wasn’t a zombie soldier.<\/p>\n

It sounds like the game has gone through a reboot since then, so we don’t know if this storyline is still the focus or not. Doom 4<\/em>‘s original concept was being likened to Call of Duty<\/em> a source had said. It seems like the game was more cinematic than they were intending as well. Having never seen this production, I can’t say for certain what I would have thought of it. Doom<\/em> of course has it’s own style, however it still is being made by a very talented team that would have known how to use that cinematic feel and make it their own I’d think.<\/p>\n

I’m glad to see Id taking their time with this, and I do wish them all the best. It’s definitely a title I’m eager to see the outcome of. The original Doom<\/em> games especially were wonderfully unique with scripted events leading to surprises. Sure back in the day those were very basic things such as a wall sliding away behind you to reveal a hoard of enemies, but it worked well! Doom 3<\/em> took that a step further making sure you didn’t know what to expect. Now gamers can even experience Doom 3 BFG Edition<\/em> which includes the Resurrection of Evil<\/em> expansion and the all-new \u2018Lost Mission\u2019 chapter.<\/p>\n

We’re cheering you on Id! When Doom 4<\/em> is released, we’ll be eager to see your next addition to the series. Personally, I like the idea of going back to Doom 2<\/em>. I don’t know how well the novels tie into the series itself, but they offer an interesting look into the world of Doom<\/em>. In this day and age who wouldn’t love a shooter set on Earth with all the baddies we love from the series?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
