I'll get DOOM Eternal eventually. Probably sooner than later but who knows. I like Animal Crossing but not nearly as much as you guys haha.

I bought Persona 5 Royal, and it's fantastic; the changes and additions made since the original, both large and minor, fully justify purchasing it and finishing it even if you've already bought and finished the original.

It's certainly a much worthier purchase than either of these two undeniably-flawed games, in my book.

Considering one cannot "finish" Animal Crossing, as it's a life simulator with no 'final boss' to defeat and credits to see (unless you count K. K. Slider), I am reasonably certain no-one has ever "finished" a single Animal Crossing game. Ergo, moot point there.

As for DOOM Eternal, no. So? I don't need to have "finished" a game to know if it's worthy of purchase.
If you think I do actually have to do that, then I dare you to finish Assassin's Creed Odyssey. Or Ratchet & Clank PS4. Or Batman: Arkham Origins. Or Layton's Mystery Journey. Or Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam. Or Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.
Basically, one can be justified in making a decision about a game's quality and purchase-worthiness without having finished the game in question. And if they give up partway through due to tedium or frustration or just losing interest, then that's a valid decision; a valid opinion.

DOOM Eternal: lack of ammo/armour/health pickups (and incredibly low ammo caps) ruin the frantic combat; the overly-colourful presentation clashes with the DOOM aesthetic; the pointless Bethesda.net account login, when multiplayer is nowhere near as important as the singleplayer and no-one likes the Bethesda launcher; Marauders are just way too fast, strong, beefy and versatile to be a regular enemy.
I wrote a blog post about DOOM Eternal.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Only one island per console, regardless of how many cartridges one owns; Player 2 onwards are treated as 'guests' and can't influence the island's development at all; the autosave cost Resetti his job, meaning there are no more hilarious rants whenever one resets their game.

Stop being a polictian and answer the question lol - I said how far did you get as anyone can get words from another review which I'm not saying you hav and ther is ammo health and armor by extracting from enemies and the marauders may put some off but can be beaten while running away and striking at right times and once you done one youl find it a lot easier and fun to defeat them
