    I found Doom 2016 to be very bland, repetitive and extremely overrated but this game is pretty large improvement. Its one of my fav all time shooters. Its like mix of old god of war and quake.

    Doom eternal has to be the greatest game to have blessed us in recent years. Not only is the gameplay jam-packed full of guns, demons, and gore, but has the most fluent, polished, and all-around insane gameplay experience that makes shooters like these hit every single mark!!

    This game is similar to getting pure testosterone pumped into your veins and its ass-kicking season at the fugly contest. With more guns than reasons to care if that Imp had a family, It throws you feet first into Hell with several weapons that make and break the Geneva Convention and a sony walkman playing the greatest soundtrack and most adrenaline-inducing soundtrack that has come with any game ever, God speed Mick Gordon you absolute musical genius.

    The Music alone is enough to make anyone fall in love with this game faster than a mother with her newborn baby. The guitar riffs are actually him revving a chainsaw with a heavy metal choir to accompany it what more could you ask for when you are causing a demon genocide? I could go on longer than my erection I get while playing this game lasts about this absolutely amazing soundtrack. Not only smashing DOOM 2016's soundtrack into the Clark belt but also jettisoning every other game and its pitiful soundtrack into the neighbouring solar system. You can catch me listening to this while doing my laundry, cleaning my room, driving to work, Am I listening to this soundtrack while writing this? yes, how could you tell?

    Diving into the Gameplay, everything is perfectly balanced into this rhythmic dance you play out while you decimate entire continents of hell, juggling your health, ammo and armour asking an intimidating amount of skill. Yet once mastered? You feel like God himself and its time to bring divine judgment on these sinful beings. Not only does Doom Eternals gameplay have so many new and amazing upgrades from DOOM 2016 but it feels so fresh while doing so. This game, it's breathtaking, sweeping the floor with how amazing a single-player experience can be. Doom guy is the equivalent of a rage fulled, weaponized ballerina while manages to not only wipe out a few demons' bloodlines, but feel amazing doing so. Doom Eternal is in a league of its own and gameplay-wise one of the best, most fluent and amazing feeling shooters to be released to date.

    In conclusion, buy this game, you won't regret a cent spent on it and get the power fantasy your inner badass so desperately desires.

Maybe Quake and Titanfall are bad games because of jumping according to these people or maybe they never heard the term movement arena shooters before or maybe they forgot Doom 2016 literally also had jumping and platforming. Also if you misstep a platform in 2016 you died and had to reload an entire checkpoint in Eternal it takes a bit of health away and puts you back to the place you were. One guy even said he dead more in Eternal from platforming which is laughable because that means they had to repeatedly fail a straight forward platforming section that even a 5 year old can complete 30 times before they lost all the health and dead lol. Some of the points make zero sense and have to be trolls. Expand

The art style for this one is great it looks much more like the originals but in modern HD graphics. The gameplay is a fun refined version of the previous with crazier movement, tougher challenge, more refined combat, more interesting levels and cooler enemies to fight. I also got more Warhammer or Quake gothic vibes from levels which was great. I would give it 8.5 but on Metacritic you have to give a non decimal number so I give it a 9. Expand

    It takes everything that made its predecessor stand out and takes it to a whole other level. The action got bloodier, the landscapes got bigger, the exploration got better and movement is better than ever. Destroying demons never felt so fun.

When you find improvements to these parameters in the second half of the game, it becomes a little bit easier, but this piano does not go anywhere.
    Many people liked the dynamism of such a game-play, but I did not like it.
    Also, I liked the variety of weapon upgrades and challenges, but didn't like the armor upgrades and runes - a very narrow direction that never fits my game-play.

Doom Eternal does not really change much from its predecessor and that is a good thing, no reason to change something that worked great. Some tweaks were made to weapons, mostly balance oriented, for example my favorite infinite ammo at full health was removed, but I have to say, it was probably necessary and a good decision. The graphics looks great, the graphics menu is kinda cool and interesting, it does not allow you to go over your GPU ram, that is a hard cap for you, but otherwise the game performs very well even on a bit older setups. The game font is classic Doom and very cool. The music is very nice as always, although for some reason, I do not think it was as good as in 2016. The story is simple, not long cutscenes, codex is short and completely optional, exactly what you expect and want from a Doom game. I played on the second highest difficulty all the way through, I had a few deaths here and there, it was perfect for me. I think second to last boss fight was the hardest for me. The game has some minor cosmetics microtransactions despite the promise it will have absolutely none, that is a shame, also no SJW politics. I have not played the DLCs yet.

    With Doom Eternal you get exactly what you expect, I have been playing Doom since mid nineties and I hope there is plenty more to come in this great series. Final Verdict: 87 %

    Way too "arcady" in comparison to 2016, Throws way too many things at you to juggle at once, over-the-top "bad-ass power-fantasy" story, NEVERTHELESS - It is still damn addicting entertaining game with a serviceable full of fan-service Easter eggs filled story.

    It probably is not as good 2016, but at the same time it probably is more fun than 2016.

    DOOM Eternal manages to pull off 2 things.

    1. Being the kind of game that schools are describing to parents. 2. Being the most video gamey game out there. Good game. Play on ultra violence or nightmare for the full experience. 8/10 because some areas are more annoying than fun AND because they force you to make a Bethesda account even when playing offline. Classic Bethesda. Still

Es increíble el como está saga dejo un estándar en los FPS y su regreso en su Reboot de 2016 trajo tanto de lo que extrañabamos de ella, DOOM Eternal toma el combate y la visceralidad de su entrega pasada para retocarla y agregar nuevas mecánicas, algunas como el plataformimg y el diseño de niveles está bastante decente pero aún así carece de pulimiento y no agradan nada a la formula, mientras el combate, loop de juego y si incluso historia han mejorado más que nunca totalmente uno de los mdevlas Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Gameplay and Music save this game. Definitely worth picking up though, dont get me wrong. The story was supposed to be the focal point but, while present, it still somehow manages to take a back seat. It's led a cast of forgettable characters that show up, expound, and disappear. Other than one moment in particular, you don't learn much about the canon. The platforming is fine enough to break up the combat, but gets too Mario 64 for its own good sometimes. The visual style of the game is way too arcade-y, and completely lost the grittiness of Doom 2016. The combat mechanics are good and make each encounter its own puzzle to figure out. But they gutted their multiplayer completely just to introduce a new mode, which currently is the only multiplayer mode available. No reason to cut out death match, this is Doom. Replayability is a bit low because of this. The content in the Fortress of Doom also is only accessible through there, giving you very little reason to 100% the game. The whole Fortress of Doom is awful tbh. The Marauder also could have been implemented better. A very challenging boss encounter, but every encounter after that he slows combat to a crawl. Mick Gordon kills it though, this is 100% soundtrack of the year Expand

    It's extraordinarily optimized, and the difficulty has been intensified compared the first instalment. The only downsides are the constant jumping and the cartoonish graphics.

    Rip & Tear until it is done!
    DOOM Eternal is the pinnacle of the Single Player First Person Shooter genre in many ways.
    The gameplay mechanics are flawless, everything works as intended, every single weapon serves its purpose very well and the skill tree is solid. The soundtrack is fantastic, fits perfectly with the aggressive gameplay, and most tracks are bangers. It's worth to note

    DOOM Eternal is the pinnacle of the Single Player First Person Shooter genre in many ways.

    The gameplay mechanics are flawless, everything works as intended, every single weapon serves its purpose very well and the skill tree is solid.

    The soundtrack is fantastic, fits perfectly with the aggressive gameplay, and most tracks are bangers.

    It's worth to note that some areas look absolutely gorgeous!
    The level design is great, running around in the battlefield, slaying demons, parkouring and picking up unique power-ups never gets old.

    However, in terms of gameplay I have one complain, I personally didn't enjoy the platforming, there's too much of it and most of the times it's completely unnecessary.

    Also, the story is very bad, it's laughably pretentious, tries way too hard to make you feel cool and portrays Doom Slayer as a badass demon slayer in a... cringey way, every human worships him and gets scared of him as he's just minding his own business, I think it would've been better if there was some subtlety.

    My biggest criticism would be the repetitiveness and the quest design.
    Every single mission felt like a fetch quest, and combined with some overpowered enemy types (specifically the Archvile), it made some parts of the game extremely frustrating.
    I really liked the Marauder though, he's perhaps one of my favorite enemy types in the game.

    All in all, this game feels like a blast from the past.
    It's very arcadey and old school but modern at the same time and I liked that! Even though it gets repetitive at times, it's such a "videogame" in every sense of the word.

    Final Rating: "Great" ~ 8/10.

    First let me say that Doom Eternal is a great game. But it's also not perfect.

    Doom Eternal is less a first person shooter and more of a twitch combat platformer. The game feels fun to play but it's not a shooter and while it "feels" like a DOOM game it doesn't play like one. The guns all feel good and have cool modifications. However the game was over tweaked. The enemies you fight
    First let me say that Doom Eternal is a great game. But it's also not perfect.

    Doom Eternal is less a first person shooter and more of a twitch combat platformer. The game feels fun to play but it's not a shooter and while it "feels" like a DOOM game it doesn't play like one.

    The guns all feel good and have cool modifications. However the game was over tweaked. The enemies you fight all have a "weakness" to a specific gun or gun modification. However some modifications were unintentionally hampered or made irrelevant by certain game play designs. The biggest one being ammo starvation.

    Doom Eternal's biggest problem is that it says it's a shooter but starves you of ammunition requiring you to do things other then shooting. They did this to create incentives to using the chainsaw. In Doom 2016 I saved the chainsaw gas for very large troublesome enemies so I conserved ammunition for the hordes of hell. In Doom Eternal the devs have create the perverse incentive to use the chainsaw because it's the only way to reliably get ammunition for your guns. Glory kills on weak enemies no longer reward ammunition but only health which on the higher difficulties is also a necessity.

    This makes the game much faster paced but also changes the game to be less of a first person shooter. So far quite a few of my friends have expressed regret at buying the game or have returned it. I enjoy it but I can definitely see where they're coming from.

    My biggest regret is how hyped I became for the regular shotgun rotating auto mod that makes it a chain gun with shotgun shells. This seems amazing however with ammo scarcity it renders the mod useless as you burn through your ammo in a few seconds. The same can be said for other mods like the plasma rifles beam mod. It requires you to hold it onto an enemy in order to blow them up. The problem is it slows you down and will likely get you killed. This is what we mean by over tweaking or as other reviewers have put it over engineering.

    And finally the plot. This game is a continuation of Doom 2016 but the inherent problem is it skips some much needed plot. How did we the Doom Slayer get to where we are in Doom Eternal from the end of Doom 2016? Otherwise the games god some heaven/hell plot with the concept of balance and corruption. The biggest thing the game has going for it is the big plot twist regarding the slayer (for spoilers sake I won't go into detail) however the cost for this plot is a level that's "entirely on the rails" that doesn't really engage you.

    Doom Eternal is definitely a good game, possibly even great. But it's not quite a "Doom" game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The overall gameplay was fun. The flow of combat, level design and difficulty was perfect for a doom game. If you liked the previous game, you will enjoy this one just as well. The only complaint i can dig up if i really nitpick is... you can sometimes get buried under a horde of demons and get stuck unable to move. But as Dark Souls players would say "git gud" and it won't happen too often.

    The soundtrack once again, amazing. I've never been more awake playing a video game.

    Story wise... well that's where it kinda falls apart.
    Doomguy 2016 was a badass on a quest for revenge after his heart and soul were shattered.
    Doomguy 2020 is a mindless psychopath killing **** just because.
    something tells me the original writer didn't take part in making this game.
    Doom was never about story, but i always prefer games with stories because they allow me to see the world through the character's eyes. Feel what they feel. Use their motivation as my own.
    So if you're going to do a story, you better **** do it right.
    I started this game with the motivation of "i was betrayed, time to kill **** and ended it with "unga bunga, me smash, you go boom boom". The only motivation i had for finishing this game was the compulsion to do a 100% run.
    A little disappointed that the fan theories and previously set Lore was all just... blood punched out of existence and all that remains is this new doomguy that i really can't relate with nor do i want to.

    It's the raw cerebral intensity of Quake married with Doom's enemy roster and its violent, cathartic attitude. Enjoying this game requires a certain frame of mind, a certain willingness to push yourself and to think in the heat of the moment. But it's extremely rewarding if you meet it on its own terms. Nearly every weapon feels like it has a significant role, a stark contrast to DoomIt's the raw cerebral intensity of Quake married with Doom's enemy roster and its violent, cathartic attitude. Enjoying this game requires a certain frame of mind, a certain willingness to push yourself and to think in the heat of the moment. But it's extremely rewarding if you meet it on its own terms. Nearly every weapon feels like it has a significant role, a stark contrast to Doom 2016's promotion of 2 weapon playstyles. Ammo counts have been massively reduced, pushing the player towards intelligent use of their loadout. Overall, the way I would describe this difference is that Doom 2016 treats its weapons as a set of toys, in which any can be used at any time without too much consequence. Doom Eternal treats them as tools, and you have to use them well to achieve success.

    The Doom Slayer is more mobile in every possible way and the combat is even more fast paced. Enemies are smarter, more aggressive and more varied across the board. New abilities like the blood punch, flame belch and ice grenade have been added, and provide even more tactical depth.

    The end result of all of this is a hyper-intense gameplay loop of constant movement, weapon swapping, and decision making. It makes you feel like a demon-slaying god when you finally overcome. It's extremely engaging to the point that I keep coming back even after like 4 playthroughs.

    All in all, from a gameplay standpoint it's one of the best SP FPS games ever, and a clear improvement over Doom 2016 in all of the ways that matter most. There's really not much else like this in the modern market. In an age in which arena shooters and movement based shooters are dying and the market is overwhelmingly shifting towards slower, less intense genres like tactical shooters and Battle Royales, it's nice to know that a game like this can still be made and find success. I'll get sappy for a second and say this: Thank you, id Software. You're the only AAA developer that still cares about the things I value in a shooter.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I can only really complain about... 3 aspects of the game. Everything else, brilliant, even as I was being stupid about a "puzzle".

    1st aspect of the game, I didn't really enjoy the 5 purple goo portions. Everywhere else you're free to run about as fast as you'd like. It just felt like an arbitrary addition to the game, but as it was only a handful of sections, it's okay. Just... It didn't feel right.

    2nd aspect, the Kahn Maykr fight was... not as epic as it should've felt. The arena's getting flooded with fire and enemies are shooting at you, and that's fine, but the music falls short. It's intense, but it's action horror intense rather than the bloodpumping music that plays during combat encounters. I guess it applies to the final boss as well, but it fitted more there.

    3rd aspect... Marauders... Hot damn, those **** are unnecessarily tough. Getting too close and you get a face full of shotgun. Getting too far away and you get a face full of axe. Shooting them leads to your shots ricocheting off their shield, and they have a spectral dog that has a wonky hit animation that somehow manages to bite me in the ass 9/10 times. They have what feels like 2 seconds of opportunity where you can get some damage in, but doing not enough damage means it's back to dodging and weaving. Getting a Glory Kill on these bastardised demons FEELS great, though, and those Glory Kills make you feel like you're in the mind of the Slayer himself.

    For some reason people are complaining about short ammo capacity. You get a Chainsaw before you burn through your starting 16 shotgun shells, and it's on recharge, meaning it's always there when you need it to fill your ammo reserves. If you somehow manage to run out of ammo before getting the Chainsaw and not being able to progress because of it... Please tell me how you managed that.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is awesome. Lots of fun! I enjoyed everything about this game until...... Urdak happened. Urdak is the second to last level of the game. I seriously was in awe of how much fun this game was, I was enjoying it so much until this level happened. Urdak brought my fun to a screeching stop. It went from this fast paced fps with occasional platforming, to a gimmicky platforming game with some fighting and it also brought in new enemies that added to my frustrations. There was a specific jump section that killed me multiple times, not because I wasn't good enough but because it was horribly designed. Finally when I thought I was done with the level, it had the lamest boss fight to add to the crappy level. Seriously this level took all my joy for the game away, it made me just want to be done with game, and it ruined the final level for me The final level was actually really cool but I was so mad at that point. Urdak cost this game 2 points. This game was easily a 10/10 but that level ruined the final act of the game. Still having said all that hate, I still enjoyed 90% of this game. Definitely worth a playthrough. Expand

The campaign was incredible, the Fortress of Doom was a great place to view your collection. Ammo runs out too quickly until you get to the third stage of the sentinel crystal upgrades, recharging chainsaw ammo was a cool feature. The Battlemode was a bit underwhelming, however it was a huge step up from Doom (2016)'s multiplayer. Expand

    In terms of game play loops, this is the best single person shooter I have ever played. There's just something about riding a flaming meat hook toward a demon to brush their teeth with a double-barrel shotgun that makes me come back for more. If you like shooters at all, this game is a must.

    If you're looking for a deep and thought-provoking gaming experience that changes your outlook on life, look elsewhere. However, if you want a fast-paced, visceral shooter full of non-stop action and outrageous violence, you can't do better than Doom Eternal. If you liked 2016's offering you will love this follow up. It's a hell of a good time.

    Like Jason Statham’s character in Crank, Doom Eternal needs adrenaline every waking second. So long as you drown hordes of demons in their own blood, it feels like a perfect GOTY contender, but during quiet moments, Doom Eternal withers and forces you to ponder unpleasant questions. id Software needs to course-correct, otherwise we’ll be playing Super Doom Slayer’s Bros in a few years.
