Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Doom: Eternal offer some relief to lockdown misery There is a strange kind of magic in games right now, specifically in the timely, simultaneous releases of the happy-sappy Animal Crossing: New Horizons and the demonic death-party Doom Eternal.
It’s a curious coincidence then, that Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Doom Eternal — two genuine classic games — arrived on the same day, just as lockdowns were being ordered around the world.
I’m astonished by how Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Doom compete ferociously for my time.
In the great scheme of things, video games aren’t important — certainly not when people are dying in overcrowded, understaffed, under-provided hospitals.
