some of his better work in recent years, game's inspiring

In the beginning Doom was Doom. But then Doom was Doom. Then Doom was Boom. And now Doom is Zoom.

Poetry.

Whoever came up with the Chainshot weapon is a fucking genius, such a fun design

Also Melena, look into PTM7950 (or the Thermal Grizzly Phase Sheet equivalent) for your GPU. Shit is super easy to apply compared to old school thermal paste (or god forbid liquid metal) and can last like a decade.

It's what Nvidia themselves have been using since the 4000 series and lots of gaming laptop manufacturers use it as well.

So I can find the sheets that go over the gpu die, but do they have pads or putty that go over the vrm or memory chips?

Finished the campaign tonight. Game was fun and I may 100% the levels.

Finished with five guns mastered as well.

If I'm feeling masochistic enough, I may try all trophies since one is gated behind beating the game on the hardest difficulty

Wth man that was fast.

Super fun though, I disagree with reviewers claiming its too long, don’t mind length as long as the game can keep up its pace.

Yeah, I could have finished the campaign faster if I wasn't trying to 100% as many levels as possible. 10-15 hours for a fps campaign seems to be about standard. I will say though, the developers as Krandor said used some voodoo black magic on the optimization. Once I fixed my undervolt, game never got over 75c at it's most intense areas, yet D2R sitting at the character select screen brings my card up to my enforced thermal limit of 85c within a few minutes.

Revelations expansion coming July 7th

HELL FREEZES OVER in DOOM: The Dark Ages | Revelations, an all-new campaign expansion that unleashes a brutal new chapter of the Slayer’s saga.

Wounded and betrayed, the Slayer is thrust into a merciless purgatory only escapable by confronting haunting truths and forging new strength with the help of a mysterious ally. He must ascend from the prison of his mind and fight an abomination of the gods to set his followers on the path to freedom.

Featuring new levels with deeper puzzles, new demons, and new mysteries, Revelations opens up a whole new dimension of combat. The all-new deadly Chain Spear offers returning slayers a uniquely satisfying combat system – one that rewards mastery with enhanced power and mobility.

Also included is the highly anticipated Ripatorium 3.0, adding DLC content (3 new maps, new demons, and fully upgraded new weapons) plus deeper customization, improved pass code generation, and saving + loading personal presets.
