I love Doom 3, but I totally get what you’re saying. Dead Space is for sure like a better version of Doom 3. But I have a soft spot for personally and I love the sci fi environments and world building.
Comment on What is the most overrated game gamers hype up?

- Tomb Raider (2013) - I want to like that game and even tried the mindset of “Try treat it as just a standalone game” like I did with Resident Evil 4 but unlike that game, the game is boring. The constant hold-handling which the combination of the reboot trying to be cinematic feels jarring. “Survival” mechanics feels like a gimmick and felt in late-game, it went just being generic shooter game.
- Doom 3 - I only putting it here as there’s fan saying it underrated but to me, it feels like a tech demo at best (a really good one as love the shadows) and at worst, it’s a poor-man’s Half-Life. It was at first, scary the jumpscare but that’s more just emeries’ placement which felt there for cheap scare which ruins the atmosphere a bit they just set up. Personally, I think Dead Space is everything what Doom 3 wishes it could of be. One thing I do like is you can listen to logs and read emails to try find out PINs for various lockers around the place which I thought that was cool.

Doom 3 was historically overwhelmingly panned

Tust me, I know. Like I said, I only added it as there’s ton people saying it underrated and act like it’s a universal liked game and TOTALLY not disliked by many and said why it isn’t good.
