Buff totems are annoying and fast travel needs to be fixed.

I recommend doing slayer gates as you progress. It doesn't matter if your health and ammo are low after, you can get those back up quickly and the combat gives you points to put into weapons, so they make progress faster

So the “fast travel” mechanic in this game seems rather useless to me. I didn’t realize it only worked prior to leaving a mission, not on any replay. I want to try to beat the slayer gates so I can unlock the unmaykr before going to the last few levels as it says it’s my last chance to do so. But I didn’t realize I was going to have to replay the missions in their entirety to get back to each slayer gate. Ffs, this will take me several nights to do unless I just say fuck it.

You might be able to cheese the missions. I'd maybe check youtube & perhaps turn the difficult down for the individual missions to get back to the slayer gates. I don't think that'll affect your ability to get the skull keys.

If you haven't used the Unmakr before you're not missing much. I find that a well placed BFG shot tends to be much more useful

Ah they're not buff totems, they're some OP enemy that summons buffed enemies

You need to take those guys out immediately. They're a massive pain in the ass, as they were in the original Doom 2

I ripped and tore until it was done. Not a single bullet left for any gun.

Alright so I've got the sword and I'm at home base. Apparently the next mission is the last?

I think there’s like 3 or 4 missions left, but you can’t go back to base after any of them.

Ok, spent all my batteries at home base on suit and weapon points. Will probably get after it tomorrow.

They're also highly cathartic once you get through. God damned marauder on top of those bitchass prowler demons; I'm trying to remember what enemies makeup the final gate. All I remember is that it was easier than I expected last time.

So I’ve gone back and completed the first two Slayer Gates. Once you get the key can you quit and go back to the fortress? You don’t need to finish the rest of the level do you?

Wait you can go back to the fortress by choice? I only went when the story took me.

No, I don’t think so. I’m specifically talking about going back to replay a mission later. I don’t even know if there’s an option to just quit part way through and return to where you left off in the campaign. That’s essentially my question.

 

[deadshot138]

The part where you shoot the orbs around the brain can suck the fattest dick

Beat the first four slayer gates. They don’t mess around, do they, introducing tough enemies far earlier than you encounter them in the regular game. Like the slayer gate on the second level had those cyborg guys with the flaming wrist blades and I didn’t see them in the base game until the super gore nest level. Same with the tyrant/cyber demon, they were in the fourth slayer gate and yet I haven’t even seen them in the base game where I’m up to the point where I have the energy sword.

Ive done it.you can leave the mission after you get the key from the slayer gates.

 

[HHJ]

They don’t mess around

No. No they dont.

 

[Law Talkin’ Guy]

Well I beat all the slayer gates and got the Unmaykr. I’m at 100% exploration on all the levels prior to the last four which I haven’t started yet except for a Doom Hunter Base. I might go back to 100% that one to get the last sentinel crystal that I missed so I can pump up my armour just a bit more, and find the collectible toy I missed for that level.

I really like the collectible toys, I kind of wish they sold them irl I would pick up a Pinky or a Cacodemon.

 

[deadshot138]

Ok this game sucks dick. Final verdict. Its repetitive and boring. Doing the same fucking room with the same fucking enemies ad nauseam. And they give tons of hp back if you fail a glory kill which is retarded. I've been trying my best to finish this but its becoming a huge chore to play.
