My YouTube feed is filled with nothing but overwhelmingly positive reviews. All I did was watch the trailer a while back, then a review with gameplay from some influencer that got early access.

I'm a huge doom fan dork, since the 90s. I'm old. But the trailer and gameplay had me thinking... meh.

I'll wait for a sale. But I'm curious if anyone else feels the same. Anyone normal play it? Specifically fans of 2016. Are these influencers getting paid to hype the game?

Anyone normal who bought day one, tell me I'm wrong and the hype is warranted. Just curious.

Fwiw it shows the charge % to the next pip down next to the ammo counter

Yes, but it would still be nice to have in the middle.

I went back to check in Eternal, and I was wrong about that game showing the progress on the icons in the middle of the screen. Just like Dark Ages it just shows charges that are ready to use, and the progress in the full HUD on the edges of the screen. Seems like I just need to get good and look at the full HUD, like I did in Eternal.
