In this thread yes but the forum has a lot of them. I'm not bitching, they are all great looking avatars. Shit, everything about the game is great looking!
id Software never made a game with a decent storyline. The only game that had something even remotely resembling the storyline was Doom 3, but even that one is just a cheesy B-movie type horror. The classic id Software games were mindless shooters. I have a feeling Doom 4 will be an extremely generic shooter with shitton of bugs(yay Bethesda beta testers), unless they hire some decent writers.

Well I enjoy the shooting section on Rage, but the problem is that damned buggy.
You travel all the time, and all the time you visit the same location,over and over.
I'd prefer a shorter game with no driving section and no recycled locations.
rage is quite fun, especially when you reach the sewer and the lost city, does get boring last bit of the game, as you expect more and their is not much and the gave ends suddenly. if you liked doom 3 then why dont you try quake 4, a better made doom 3

I played Quake 4 and enjoyed it :)

AMEN
I haven't played Quake 4 in awhile... should do something about that.

Big_Boss: I just started Rage, bought on Gamersgate when it was 5€ and...man, this game is boring.
I played FIVE hours and I can't do anything else then driving between two locations and killing some monsters on three different location I already visited maybe three times each.
And the game has not a plot.
You see that video on the beginning, and that's all. There is no purpose to continue playing this, I'm playing on Nightmare and with infinite saves and regenerating health the game is a piece of cake.
Doom 3 is much better then this.
as usual, graphics is shit, what really counts in a game is gameplay. dot.
I found Rage to be quite boring and repetitive as well, so you're not alone in that.
But I don't particularly like Doom 3 either.
I was going to play the BFG edition a couple of months ago to see if perhaps my opinion was overly critical, but there were no subtitles so I didn't play it.

Have you played Quake 4? It does a lot to keep the game "fresher" than Doom 3 but ultimately I find that most FPS games can get boring but that's to be expected, it's an FPS. Once you start to add stuff like story, strategy, and puzzles it's no longer an FPS, it's Deus Ex or it's Outcast. I love FPS but I can only play them in spurts because even the good ones are pretty much 'Run, shoot, blow shit up...repeat'.

The BFG edition has worse graphics than vanilla Doom 3(I know it's incredible) and has less settings you can change, it is a straight up shameless console port, not to mention it incompatible with mods and the extra level is just a rehashed content made from parts of other Doom 3 maps. Vanilla Doom 3 is a PC game alright. But wait! It has achievements! Because that's all what matters in games, right?
I actually finished Rage just yesterday. Must admit that I thought it to be bit boring as well. Even with not playing one minigame and minimal driving.
Personally I liked Rage a lot, except its non-existent ending. The graphics was like concept art come alive, beautiful, the shooting was incredibly satisfying and well done, racing driving had simple but pleasant physics...I was never bored with it.
I even bought the DLC that recently came out, and will replay the whole game with it.
When it came out I fucking hated it. I decided to play it again and I thought it was decent.

Never needed super fancy stories in my pure shooters. Just let me mutilate monsters with bullets!
I loved what they did to the combat. A real improvement over classic id shooters.

I mostly missed more boss fights and a proper last boss, but other than that, great fun.

I still have to get that darned DLC pack.


Edit: I also missed a little bit more tiers between enemies. Mutants are either pathetically easy to kill or hard as hell. And the humans felt much similar.
