Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.

2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.

I should not need to explain this one.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Doom (2016)

If you’re talking about Doom, it’s the original Doom game

Sorry but you're not the arbiter of worldwide speech, so you don't get to decide that. The name of the 2016 game is just Doom. If there's a chance of confusion you can add (2016) for clarity, as I did, but it really has the same title as the original Doom game and there's nothing wrong with just calling it Doom. Which it is.

See:

It's like Scarface and Scarface, or Cape Fear and Cape Fear, or Dune and Dune, or ... you get the point.
