    The arrogance with which Gordon was treated soured me on the whole franchise which is a shame because Doom 2016 is one of my all time favorites. No small part due to his soundtrack.

        I applaud your sense of honor, but Dark Ages is still an excellent game.

          Standing on principle requires us to skip games that are good sometimes.
