    Intense action where every battle is also a bit of a puzzle? Doom Eternal is great, absolutely. It's faster better and harder than Doom 2016. It is also lot more difficult. I consider myself good at shooters, but this one is devilishly hard and I have no idea how anyone could beat this at nightmare or even the 2nd highest difficulty. The new enemies are interesting, the Marauder though ...Intense action where every battle is also a bit of a puzzle? Doom Eternal is great, absolutely. It's faster better and harder than Doom 2016.

    Doom Eternal and The Ancient Gods might be the best single player FPS I've ever played. It is a cross between classic Quake/Quake 3 deathmatch and Bayonetta/Devil May Cry.

    This is the best FPS I have ever played. After playing this everything else feels slow, frustrating, and not adrenaline pounding enough. I would recommend this game to anyone. This is absolutely my favorite game. ID out did themselves.

    Fantastic game. A little disappointed there isn't an achievement for completing campaign on a harder difficulty. Guess I wasted some time and frustration on a higher difficulty that didn't have a payoff. Oh well.

    Truly the renaissance of a franchise. DOOM 2016 was the beginning, but DOOM Eternal sealed the success of the franchise with fast paced gameplay, quick reflex learning, great graphics... As a FPS gamer I had to relearn how to move, shoot and control the arena. Also the difficulty gives you a solid challenge for veteran gamers (aside from part 1... My god...).

    Overall Must have for FPS

    These addons for DOOM are HARD AF! Definitely play the first campaign on harder levels before even attempting this! If you are up for a challenge, though... this right here is LEGIT. It's very fast paced and will get you holding your breath at tense moments and your heart rate up. I can't even play this game unless I am well rested! Definitely worth it across the board.

    One of the best game I have ever played. The combat is skill based and satisfying, and the flow of the combat is incredibly good. DOOM Eternal is a refreshing break from all the modern fps games that are all just more of the same. The music is fantastic and easily the best of any game I've ever played. I would recommend DOOM Eternal to anyone who plays video games, and even some people that don't.

    This game reprogrammed my brain to the point where I can no longer play any shooter that expects me to stand still for more than five seconds. There is so much verticality, so much polish, so much fun with the game in the GAME. This game is a masterpiece, end of discussion.

    I am really impressed by how good this game is. It is worth of all the praised its received, and they have a killer formula to move forward with. The battles are intense and exciting; I was constantly on the edge of my seat. Even better than Doom 2016, which I thought was great at the time.

    The best shooter I've played. Ever. While Doom (2016) made you feel unstoppable, Eternal made you work for it. Mastering Eternal is an experience like no other. The level design is fantastic, the gunplay is even better, and the new challenges you get make it all the more satisfying when you beat the final boss.

    The difficulty is much higher in this game, as you have much less ammo,

The level design is fantastic, the gunplay is even better, and the new challenges you get make it all the more satisfying when you beat the final boss.

    The difficulty is much higher in this game, as you have much less ammo, enemies hit you like a truck, and there are a lot of new enemies to keep track of. If you're new to Doom/Shooters in general, I recommend setting the difficulty on Hurt Me Plenty. (I beat it on Nightmare on my first playthrough cuz I'm just that good)

    The Movement is a gift from god. You got double jump instantly, dashes, climbing, swinging on monke bars, the Meat-Hook, ect. It feels so good to zip through the map while blasting demons to dust.

    The only thing I can criticize is that the final boss's first phase is kinda annoying, and that's about it. The game reviews who said this game wasn't as good as 2016 just didn't care enough to try and get better. This is one of the best games I've ever played, and will continue playing in the future. There is so much to this game that makes it great that I haven't even talked about. Just get the game

    This game definitely gives the Doom series a flair of its own - the light resource management combined with the relatively demanding gameplay distinguish Doom Eternal from other shooters in the market.

    They turned a mindless shooter into something that requires brain power. Every weapon has a purpose and every enemy has a weakness. No clue how they are going to top this one. But they already topped Doom 2016, so you never know... This is some of Ids best work.

    The real meat and potatoes of the game. All missions are great, combat is immaculate and very skill based. The difficulty increase since DOOM 2016 is a big one, but it's doable.

Additions like Flame Belch, SSG Meathook, the Dash, Ice Bomb and other additions make this game a step up from Doom 2016.

However the game itself is more challenging because it requires more skill from the player, which could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on the player. Doom Eternal forces you to consider managing your resources for things like ammo, because weapon ammo capacity has been reduced from 2016. I personally think this is a good thing and I welcome the changes and the increase of difficulty. It requires me and other players to think about how they play the game. It helps keep the player engaged with the combat loop. I find the gameplay addicting and fun. I recommend old Doom players alike to try out this newest game in the franchise and new players to try out Doom 2016 first and then play Eternal. Expand

    The murderous amok simulator returns and is even more furious than before. Fantastic presentation and great fighting system are harmed only by annoying platforming sequences. [Issue#302]

    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.
