I grabbed this game last weekend on sale, installed the 100GB install, and tried to fire it up. Well, I was met with an intro screen that was less than spectacular. The performance was horrible on my Nvidia card. So, I spent half an hour updating my drivers, then…tadaa, just like magic, the game came to life. What came to life though, felt mundane, repetitive, unrewarding, unpolished, and generally unpleasant. This, seems highly unusual, at least, so I thought. Then, I hit the Steam forums and saw, a lack of activity for this game, that was astounding. It was like standing in an empty room. This is very uncharacteristic of any Doom game I have ever played. As a matter of fact, even Doom3 which wasn’t that well received probably would have been more active than this. Buyer beware, this game may not be what the hype machine has been hyping it up to be!
