Why Doom’s Dark Ages Ditches Multiplayer for a Massive Campaign

The Legacy of Doom and Its Deathmatches

Doom has been a titan in the gaming industry since its inception, bringing doom and gloom to digital battles everywhere. With its intense gameplay, it transformed the concept of multiplayer shooter games. We all remember the early days when students valiantly dragged their PCs across campuses, desperate to connect and engage in glorious deathmatches. But as time marched on, the landscape of multiplayer gaming morphed significantly.

Doom: The Dark Ages – A Solo Experience

Fast forward to the present – the recently unveiled “Doom: The Dark Ages” opts to cast multiplayer aside completely. Studio chief Marty Stratton emphasized that the focus shifted to creating the “biggest and best” campaign experience possible. By leaving out deathmatches, they can devote resources to unique elements, like the Atlan and Mech experiences, which are nearly game-sized features within the game. It raises eyebrows, sure, but perhaps this decision opens the floodgates for unparalleled creativity.

Nostalgia Meets Reality

While the nostalgic echoes of past multiplayer may feel a little echoey in our hearts, it’s essential to recognize that times have changed. Gamers now enjoy a myriad of choices, from battle royales to tactical shooters. Doom may have been the original roadblock of gaming mayhem, but the days of hauling computers and network cables are behind us. Ultimately, focusing solely on an immersive campaign promises to deliver a supreme experience for players that crave a singularly intense Doom experience.
