And all I can say is... that I have really mixed feelings about it. The game wasn't quite as bad as I originaly thought, but it was pretty close. Many cool and awesome moments but also so many bullshit moments as well. I realised I may have been harsh on both myself and the game, but that didn't aleviate the frustration I felt quite often.

The Marauder... was NOT as bad as I originaly believed, but he was still an annoying little shit (only died to him like 2 or three times). Archviles don't live long enough to grief me because they SUCK BFG/CRUCIBLE ASAP. Tyrants are though hombres but usually you can evade them. Pain Elementals are spongy douches but otherwise not too bad. And Doom Hunters were kinda fun, amazingly enough.

However... both Mancubi types can suck a fat one (like themselves); Carcasses can also suck one because they throw shields in your face... FROM ACROSS THE BLOODY ROOM. Cacodemons can still fuck off, as well as Hellknights, Dreadknights, Barons and Whiplashes (for popping up fucking behind me!). The Kahn Maykr herself was pretty bullshit (with the lava-floor), along with the Gladiator's second phase.

The final boss though... was just right and I really liked it; just enough room for me to run around and enough Crucible pickups to keep going (should have designed the rest of the fights like that, really). No joke, I was left with only 10 lives (technicaly 20 because I replayed some levels to restock on them and try cheats). Originaly, like I said, I had really mixed feelings for Eternal, so much so that I enjoyed it slightly less than 2016. But the final fight has pretty much lifted it a notch for me, so I might actualy consider buying it soon enough. Although I do admit that I dread the idea of a Nightmare playthrough, I'll see. Oh, and to hell with the ammo limit; 24 shells and 13 rockets ? The pockets from my pair of jeans are bigger than that.

Sorry for my lenghty review; I just wanted to share my thoughts on the game.
