<\/iframe><\/p>
Here is a Doom Eternal<\/em> advertisement that does exactly nothing to capture why people are so enraptured by Doom<\/em>. For a marketing effort whose sole purpose is to sell the game, this commercial manages to make Doom Eternal<\/em> look far more bland and watered-down than it is.<\/p> And maybe that’s because it has to really rein in the violence for television approval, a tough feat for a game that is aggressively violent. Not a single gun is fired (although maybe there’s a shotgun blast at the 20-second mark, but it doesn’t seem to kick at all). It’s mostly just the Doom Slayer standing around, synced to an ill-fitting soundtrack.<\/p> Weird misstep but far from damning. Everything else about Doom Eternal<\/i> has been promising and exciting. It’ll take more than a misguided commercial to kill that momentum ahead of its March 20 launch.<\/p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":248270,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"article_type":"","gamurs_wordpress_blocks_hide_tags":false,"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_is_hidden":false,"apple_news_is_paid":false,"apple_news_is_preview":false,"apple_news_is_sponsored":false,"apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":"\"\"","apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"footnotes":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false},"categories":[1,105,97,101,110,99],"tags":[341,1511,342,344,1046,100],"internal-label":[],"invoiceable_action":[],"article_type":[],"coauthors":[{"id":9,"display_name":"Brett Makedonski","user_login":"Brett Makedonski","user_nicename":"brett-makedonski"}],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
