wolfenstein 3d was arcade
doom items still looked like objects that belonged to the universe and had actual designs
the only reason eternal did this was because of visual feedback, which could have still be better
otherwise, they look uninspired
eternal is the only game in the series that ever did this
even the power ups in quake could be seen as some magic runes, at least
eternal also feels like it's doing this just because "gameplay is first in doom, so here's how aware it is that it's a video game"
it's like the new paper mario games reminding you they're paper because that's what paper mario is, apparently
