Doom: The Dark Ages completely dispenses with a multiplayer part. The developers have now justified this decision.
In May DOOM: The Dark Ages in the shooter genre should cause a sensation, but will then fully concentrate on a single player part; ID software completely dispenses with a multiplayer component and has now explained this in more detail in the course of yesterday's presentation as part of the Xbox Developer_Direct.
While Doom from 2016 and then also Doom Eternal still had multiplayer modes to offer, you deliberately do without integration in Doom: The Dark Ages. Reason: You wanted to focus directly on the single player campaign.
“We made the decision directly from the start,” emphasizes Executive Producer Marty Stratton. “We basically wanted to clear ourselves to be able to create things like Atlan, the mech experience and the dragon experience. These are almost things like mini-games within the game.”
And further: “We know that our campaign is largely the matter, which is why most people come and play a modern doom game. So we decided to put all of our efforts in this area and really the biggest and best To create Doom game that we have ever done. “
Game Director Hugo Martin also supported the decision made in rather equal statements. But how do you see that? Can you actually do without a multiplayer part in Doom: The Dark Ages well and are only at the start because of the single player campaign?
