Unleash the overwhelming power of the DOOM Slayer. With updated armor and an arsenal of new and improved equipment, including a shoulder-mounted cannon with flamethrower, extendable blade, and a new dash ability, you're faster and deadlier than ever. Destroy every demon in your path with an upgraded array of guns and mods, including the Super Shotgun's new Meat Hook attachment to pull yourself point blank with the faces of hell.

Invade others either by yourself or with another player, as part of a hunting party, to give the Slayer a true taste of Hell.

funny how through Doom to Doom (2016) they've kept the 9000 and now for Eternal the 10k make an appearance as the humongous 10000 shown on Phobos ... UH? Quake II's BFG10k is a portable model of that behemoth?
lore wise there is some cross connection between Quake and Doom but timeline and technology wise ... there is some [censored] up...
annnd that put this announce thread back on the rail, instead of platform discussion :D :lovetpu:
Search registry for GOG. Cry.
sorry for asking ... but i don't see where is the issue, furthermore ... manual Registry cleaning is not a big task either way (or automated with Comodo System Utilities or CCleaner (older version since the recent one has some issue, v5.41.6446 works fine. ))
true that
The Windows registry which is increased in size due to accumulation of junk entries, fragmented and corrupted due to the traces left by improperly uninstalled programs leads to:
- Degradation in performance of the computer system. The operating speed of the system will be notably reduced, as each active process/application takes a longer time to refer to registry and acquire/modify its registry entry. The time-out problem also leads to frequent program error messages;
- Reduction in reliability. The active process/application may not be able to reach its respective registry entry due to fragmentation of registry of increased size, resulting in unexpected termination of the programs. This makes the user to lose any unsaved data;
- Reduction in stability. The fragmented, slow registry takes a long time to fulfill requests sent to it by the active programs and hardware devices and causes system freezes and rebooting;
- System crash. Excessive damage to the Registry can even make the system unbootable.
although with Galaxy, Battle.net launcher, 2 instance of origins and one STEAM accumulating for above ~300 installed games (including stand alone games ) i see nothing of the like with my computer.Windows also use folder The SAM, SECURITY, SOFTWARE, SYSTEM, and DEFAULT registry files, among others, are stored in newer versions of Windows (like Windows XP through Windows 10) in the %SystemRoot%\System32\Config\ folder.
This conversation made me curious so I spent a few hours experimenting. While the entries in the registry are there, they don't seem to do much, if anything, after installation as deleting them doesn't prevent the games from running or even slow things down. This is true for both GOG and Steam. I'm inclined to think this is a non-issue. Registry entries do nothing unless accessed. Windows doesn't look at the registry unless it has a call from code to do so, the entries just being there doesn't slow things down unless Windows goes looking for them. And if it does and finds nothing it returns to the program that made the call with an error. That will trigger a stop program error or an ignore and continue call depending on the program. That assumes the call for registry info is made. I'm not seeing that behavior. Now there might be some games that require data stored in the registry, but not from GOG and not everything(at least the titles I own) from Steam. This includes games from Bethesda, so if they include this new Doom and the previous version it would very likely not suffer from registry entries going a foul.
