Doom 3 was better than new wolfenstein games easily. even Rage was better.Seth Carter said:Well, I mean we can take a look at IDs track record in recent years (which won't include Return, that was over 15 years ago.)
Doom 2016 - Solid. But not really conducive to dealing with humans and such. Yeah, you can throw zombies and whatever in Wolfenstein (and the series has gone back and forth with it), but if you start getting into that as a mainline, you might as well just be making a Doom game instead.
Doom 3 has its defenders, but its gonna be a tough sell as a hardcore FPS. If the narrative and stealth gameplay of recent Wolfensteins irritates your FPS experience, I can't say that I'd buy you weren't offput by the attempts at horror elements and that ludicrous flashlight crap in D3.
The other ID title we've seen in recent times was RAGE. Almost an instant joke. Its a bit over-derided as a game, suffering from technical problems more then hefty gameplay criticisms. But despite decent gameplay when you got to it, suffered from a terrible story, bland open world, half-baked vehicle combat.
As a point of note, Wolfenstein 2009 wasn't ID. It was Raven Software. Raven Software was big thing back in the late 90s/early 2000s. Connaiseurs of this time period might recall Heretic, Hexen, Jedi Knight, that one good Voyager Star Trek game, and the original X-men Legends/Marvel Alliance games. Sadly, Activision seems to have obliterated them since and they're now just churning out Call of Duties as one of the rotating studios.
new wolf games have more cutscene than gameplay and when there is gameplay. its boring.
