Wait, wouldn’t the multiplayer essentially be unreal tournament, but with less diversity? Never played doom’s online, so I have no clue.
Nobody did. It was one of this weird wave of interesting multiplayer setups that just didn't have the competitive cleanness of the established stuff and nobody ended up caring about.
It was midly interesting to try out once, but let's say there's a reason they didn't do a MP mode in the sequel and every reviewer praised that choice.
What? Eternal has multiplayer. They're mostly assymetrical modes, like the one where you can play as the demons.
Or do you mean the second sequel (Dark Ages)?
Wait, does it? Oh, man, it does! I actively remember the praise, where did I get so much Mandela effect from this? I didn't even think to look it up, I was so certain.
In any case, here's to being actively wrong and still having made your point. Eternal is the lesser game in general, and I have played it much less, but it's still telling I straight up forgot and invented an alternate scenario about it.
I don't know; I only tried the game via the demo, which didn't have any multiplayer. I thought it would basically be like the OG Doom's deathmatch.
I have played Eternal's multiplayer on PS+ because it's in the catalogue. It was... Weird. Though I thought it sounded pretty cool that you can be a demon in it. It wasn't actually that fun.
