Often, “somewhere” is a bedside table or a desk. I fully understand the game wouldn’t work if you could just chuck everything on the floor. I have a yoga mat standing upright next to my little kitchen table, for example....

Lead art director Evelyn Mansell says in a game you want a gun “that does weird things. What separates a good one from a bad one. Whether or notDoom 3s shotgun is one of the good ones (it is).
