Ridley Prime Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 A Bethesda account. Kinda weird to have you do that for such old games, but it’s free and only takes like a minute to set up. This original trilogy port is great news regardless. Quote Link to comment
avalonknight Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 I've set up a Bethesda Account for Blades, and the kicker is that that is a mobile game (and Switch bound), and the account was OPTIONAL. Why the hell would they make it mandatory for Doom besides multiplayer? Quote Link to comment
TKrazyO Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 So apparently you don't even need a real email to make an account to play the two DOOM games. Granted it shouldn't even be a thing in the first place but Bethesda tweeted an update about the situation: If the tweet didn't load: They're working on it to make the login optional. Something good came out of this though. Memes! Spoiler There's also other problems I've read with the music being slower. Doc Brown 1 Quote Link to comment
Ridley Prime Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Even got to the point of being misinformed at first that you couldn’t play the single player stuff offline because DRM, but glad that’s all cleared up, and I mean even if you did have to make an account to play at first, it would’ve only been a one time thing. But yeah, glad something like a Doom trilogy port won’t be filled with controversy beyond the first day, Bethesda memes aside. Doc Brown 1 Quote Link to comment
Kezay Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Glad to hear the Bethesda login thing is being worked on but I think when I do get around to this I'll probably settle for Doom 3 alone. Still, nice deal throwing trilogy out there like that, quite the surprise! Quote Link to comment
avalonknight Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 That's definitely good news. Also Doom 64 recently for a PEGI rating for PS4 and PC, looks like they managed to talk with WB Games about it (remember Doom 64 was actually a Midway Games developed title with id Software's supervision.). So there's a chance that's going to the next game to be Switch-bound. Quote Link to comment
avalonknight Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/doom-1993-switch/ Went directly to the website to verify, it's real at the time of this writing. Looks like there is a reason why that showed up in the screenshots. ...and I wish I can crop part of the tweet to make it looks less of a repost, because it's already posted. Quote Link to comment
Ridley Prime Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 So now the other main complaints with the port like the audio issues have been addressed; good news. Quote Link to comment
