Polygon plays the first 30 minutes of doom, these are the people who review video games - General

More like the first 10 minutes played at 0.33x mental speed.

[QUOTE=Egevened;50310651]many people enjoy watching garbage, for some its anime, to me its this[/QUOTE] that's the price to pay until someone reuploads it

DSP could have done a better job of this.

[quote]Polygon[/quote] That's all I needed to know.

[QUOTE=apurplerock;50310618]is it just me or does there seem to be no aim assist at all for controllers? if that's the case.... lmao[/QUOTE] Believe it or not, there is. You track towards the enemy you're shooting, it's just very hard to see, but it works best when you're moving. I think it's not working for this guy because you need to like, hit the enemy at least once before it tracks.

[QUOTE=Ithon;50310647]why are you giving them clicks, it only makes them want to produce more content.[/QUOTE] Can someone post a WEBM version? There's no way in hell I'm gonna give them a view.

[QUOTE=Ninja Gnome;50311103]the guys at giant bomb may not be the best at video games but they clearly play them on a regular basis[/QUOTE] Would not proclaim them the best but they know their stuff and as their youtube proves they are literally playing stuff daily. I'm not the least bit surprised Polygon couldn't find someone competent but, they clearly care more about hiring yes men who agree with their politics.

[QUOTE=Pretiacruento;50311220]Can someone post a WEBM version? There's no way in hell I'm gonna give them a view.[/QUOTE] It's probably a dick move, but the gameplay is so hilariously bad. (p.s. 1.2 GB). [URL="https://files.catbox.moe/h1bwbi.mp4"] https://files.catbox.moe/h1bwbi.mp4[/URL]

From what I can tell, you pretty much have to play this with a keyboard and mouse to enjoy it.

you get infinite pistol ammo in all difficulties. not like it matters though since the pistol is garbage.

[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;50311393]you get infinite pistol ammo in all difficulties. not like it matters though since the pistol is garbage.[/QUOTE] The pistol does its job well, a sidearm to fall back on, I use the charge shot to stagger imps and then punch them in the face, it's also good for staggering those bastard zombies with the arm cannons.

My dad played doom 1 on UV and while he wasn't the best he sure as shit was way better than these mongoloids

Anyone know who did this gameplay so I can never listen to their FPS reviews ever again?

[QUOTE=Funktastic Dog;50311549]Anyone know who did this gameplay so I can never listen to their FPS reviews ever again?[/QUOTE] You shouldn't be reading polygon reviews to begin with.

Oh man this reminds me of the time I let my mom play something and she kept forgetting you can look around with the mouse. [editline]13th May 2016[/editline] 6:20 jesus christ this is painful to watch

I just stopped watching the reupload, it's painful. Like something was wrong like control scheme or something, like it was played on a keyboard without the mouse.

[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;50311393]you get infinite pistol ammo in all difficulties. not like it matters though since the pistol is garbage.[/QUOTE] with how many shots they're missing they're probably glad the pistol has unlimited ammo with how close they're dying to common demons that only walk up to you and slap you in the face they're probably glad glory kills give them 90 health

It looks like they are aiming with the arrow keys..

If he was using a controller I can cope, I can't use that shit on fps games. If he was using a keyboard and mouse :disappoint:

[video=youtube;d3pQ0oO_cDE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3pQ0oO_cDE[/video] Way better with this music. (Also if you don't want to give Polygon any views.)

[QUOTE=apurplerock;50310618]is it just me or does there seem to be no aim assist at all for controllers? if that's the case.... lmao[/QUOTE] nah you can see a little bit of it at 4:49

[QUOTE=Falstad007;50310589]This better be baby-easy mode... 22hp to 100hp from one glory kill? Infinite pistol ammo? What the fuck no.[/QUOTE] If you play on Ultraviolence (the only difficulty that matters) you lose these 78 points of HP in two hits from lesser enemies (stronger types like hell knights, cacodemons and such will erase you even quicker). The pistol's a peashooter and only useful for dispatching cannon fodder zombies without wasting the ammo from bigger, better guns.

The infinite pistol doesn't bother me, Serious Sam has something like that and it never really detracted from the game, it was pretty much a necessity too since enemies would sometimes be in unreachable places, meaning you couldn't melee them, and running out of ammo would pretty much make it impossible to kill them and trap the player. Besides I find it to be a nice complement to your "infinite" melee attack.

Is this a troll? Why are people that might as well be vegetables reviewing a game if they can't even play it?

[QUOTE=DEMONSKUL;50312858]The pistol has infinite ammo no matter what It's a shit weapon though so...[/QUOTE] I still disagree with this, I just recently maxed out the pistol and at UV difficulty I can one shot imps at half charge, damage the arm cannon zombies enough to be glory killed, and one shot the laser beam guys with a full charge. That thing is crazy useful.
