Given the fuckups around definitive editions and the fact that there’s already so many great, free, open source Doom engines and content, this feels like a money grab and a step backwards.
The games cost like $2 on Steam. They probably lost money doing this if anything especially since they gave it away free to people who bought the previous releases.

How is a free update now somehow a money grab? This is definitely not a step backwards. They even made a new episode.
You know what, you’re right, I may be too cynical.

It’s free and it’s not like Doom is a famously expensive series of games or anything; each entry is 5 quid at most unless it’s 2016 or Eternal.
