The minute the show runners said that they did not play or care about the game before a single episode even aired, I knew it was going to suck balls.
If you don't know or even care about the source material: you shouldn't have the rights to make anything about it.
They knew enough to include a first-person fight scene, because that's what gamers wanna see.
Sounds like the Doom movie, which wasn't originally written to be a Doom movie which is very apparent by not only a few unchanged lines of dialogue but also by the fact it was more like Resident Evil than it was like Doom.
I fuckin love that film though. The Rock's best performance. The brief moment of transphobia can fuck right off though.
