Doom (Series)

[Moonface]

Reading that, is it possible to run out of ammo easily in Doom ('16)? And do you have to weaken demons, or at least more durable demons than the standard ones to do any physical combat? Just thinking about being in a room with spawning and summoned enemies.

Running out of ammo entirely is probably impossible unless you're just a very bad shot. You can find ammo on the maps as you explore and demons will also drop some depending on various things, but you can make it more constant if you use a booster slot for demons to drop ammo on death. The chainsaw can also be used to get a shit ton of ammo out of any demon you use it on and is useful in a pinch for more ammo or to just kill something big if you have the fuel to do it.

Demons can be melee hit with your gun but most physical attacks on demons come from either the chainsaw, or when they flash to signify they're open for a Glory Kill. The stronger the demon, the more damage you'll need to inflict to get it into a Glory Kill state.

Even if you did run out of ammo, the pistol has infinite ammo and is actually quite decent. Useful if you don't want to waste ammo of other guns on the fodder demons you come across.

There are also powerups in encounters you can pick up that give you buffs. Infinite ammo, instant melee kill (the best one), quad damage, invincibility, just to name the ones I can remember.

Basically, you never have to worry about being unprepared for fights. If you die, it won't be because you ran out of ammo, but because you simply wasn't mobile enough. Doom '16 is just non-stop movement and action in every encounter, no cover, just jump in and blast away until everything is dead.
