The Doom gameplay was pretty trash though... It was literally just a guy walking in straight lines towards enemies, and then shooting them with the shotgun. There was no consideration to what they were doing, no cover. Just walking and shooting. Run and gun != brainless. In Doom you had to do a fair bit of ducking and dodging to avoid taking damage, where in this demo nothing ever felt like a threat. I'm hoping it was just toned down for the idiot playing. Maybe they wanted to demonstrate the graphical style more? Either way for a game they want focused on "moving fast" that was an underwhelming video.

Also what the fuck was up with the chainsaw section? Does it only do takedowns like that? Sure, if you're walking along in a section where you're confronted with one enemy at a time it's fine... but is it actually useful and meaningful to the gameplay? Would there ever be a reason to pull it out in any other context?

But hey it's id software.

e: Yeah holy fucking shit Shenmue 3 get hyped. I hadn't heard the TLG news, but as someone who will probably never own a PS4 it's hard to get too excited for it. Still, it would be amazing to actually see it finished.
