Yeah, for sure. There was a significant amount of gameplay shown for Ninja Gaiden 4 and it’s scheduled for a Fall 2025 release so they’ve been working on this for awhile now.
15-20 years ago, I would have been all over Doom Dark Ages. It looks way to intense for me to even consider playing today. I do like that they've moved away from all the crazy platforming Eternal had, though.

I was worried about the platforming in Eternal. Does it get annoying?
I find some of the platforming in Doom to be annoying when you're trying to fight at the same time.

Eternal's platforming is about 20 times as much as Doom 2016. A lot of puzzles require it too and during combat. It's cool and fun but I getting too old for crazy acrobatics.

Oh crap.
I don't mind it outside of combat, but during is annoying AF.
Is there at least solid ground to fall to, not bottomless pits?

Lots of bottomless pits and lava; you're not set back too far most of the time, though. Platforming is required to navigate the world, kinda like Metroid Prime. On combat it's mostly monkey bars and higher and lower platforms and jump pads.

At a certain point Doom 2016 started being more Metroid in its platforming and it felt a bit weird when it was overused. That cylinder chamber went up forever.
I would not have even thought to do something like that. I was in a weird Japanese store, I saw yakuza 2, the PS2 and a KK Slider plushie and I had no other thought than to buy them on the spot.
You have no impulse control?
Yeah.. not sure what you are talking about there....
Unless it is an action that would have a negative impact on another living being I have ZERO, probably less than ZERO impulse control. If I had my favoritve beer or tequila on-tap in my house I'd be dead in 4 hours.

Got that game a few years ago in the Slayer's bundle, but mainly to have Doom 3 again and merely try the others. Doom 3 was my first Doom, and I've barely touched the original and 2016. They're not my thing. I want something like Doom 3 again, but series fans would likely say the opposite, as it was nothing like the rest of the series, before or since. Give me another slower-paced horror FPS, id!
PlatinumGames staying afloat.

Wow, good showcase of games. Game Pass keeps on winning for me.
Looked like some Metal Gear Revengence DNA in there.
Steam Deck sales drop to all time low after switch 2 announcement.

Yeah, I keep telling the wife that as well...

I haven't read this article/reader letter in full, but I found the sentiment interesting.
Do you see any truth or likelihood of this? I'd say no, given all the PS5 ports they are doing.
It appears it was an admin error.
Shows how the Internet works, 15 articles on tanking Steamdeck sales. Then 1 article correcting that.
Hey I came in here to tell that joke! My fault for taking a few days off to enjoy the warm tropic waters to soothe my @#$%^ing sciatic and back pain.
That's what I said to myself at the beach today looking at the various bikini'd distractions.
Nor for my old school laptop.
