Some early media reviews are coming in for Doom Eternal and they look great. I wanted to share one from one of my favorite YouTube channels LGR. LGR has a nice chill style and mixes top notch capture footage (seriously the game looks incredible in his video) and it running on his wide ASUS monitor.

One of the first things I noticed is that in Doom Eternal the starting weapon is the shotgun which is a great. The pistol in Doom 2016 was fine, but Doom Eternal looks to start you out with Doom's signature weapon which is as it should be.

If you are getting Doom Eternal soon let me know and what you think of the game once you play it.

Wow, the shotgun was my favorite weapon in Doom (2016). This is very tempting, I'm "on the fence" about it. From what I've seen, all reviews so far are definitely positive!

Same here. I have so many games already but this looks like a game I’ll play... at some point?

Yeah. I'm already playing something and don't really want to stop. Maybe it'll be cheaper in the Steam Summer Sale. Maybe I've gotten spoiled by sales and now realize I don't always have to pay $60 for a game. Although, every time I watch something (like the video you posted) about this game, I really feel like getting it. I also have multiple other games on my wish list.

If you don’t need to play a game at launch waiting is always a great idea. Borderlands 3 is pretty cheap on Steam now and will only get cheaper over time with a ton more content.

Yeah, I was really tempted to get Borderlands 3. It came to Steam at a 50% discount, which was very hard to resist.

Yep, that's the one.
