Doom Eternal delayed until March 2020

The release date of Doom Eternal, previously November 22, 2019, has now been pushed back to March 20, 2020.

Whilst this is obviously disappointing for PC gamers, extra time to polish a game can never hurt.

Doom Eternal was also pushed heavily as a launch title for Stadia in November 2019, so this delay will have other ramifications on the platform. However Bethesda are still going to be releasing games on Stadia from their back catalogue: Doom (2016), Rage 2, The Elder Scrolls Online, and Wolfenstein: Youngblood.

The information about the delay came in this tweet:

At least Doom 64 is definitely getting a PC release.

I was gonna say that maybe they're going to include some sort of modding tools to keep with the legacy of Doom, but who are we kidding?  This is just another by-the-numbers console shooter with a Doom skin, ironic since Bethesda is the face of "moddable games".  I'm starting to believe that they only allow mods for Skyrim and its many variants because they need the community to fix their games, their other games are fine as is.
