    I think of crack cocaine with heavy metal. That is this game in a nut shell.

    Pretty much improves almost everything from Doom 2016 to be one of the best shooters of all time. The flaws of bad third act, game getting repetitive, combat lacking depth and being too braindead are gone. Anyone who prefers Doom 2016 is only nostalgia riding a good but heavily flawed game. Eternal is objectively better game period.

    Must buy for arena shooter/movement shooter fans. Massive improvement over the predecessor which I felt was overrated and boring.

    Игра очень неплоха. Сюжет интересный, но надо много читать из записок и буквально выдергивать информацию оттуда. Бесит сильно паркур, особенно на предпоследней локации. В целом игра хорошая

    Excellent gameplay, adrenaline and violent. Optimized by God Himself. However, there are some smudges such as an artistic direction that in my opinion loses a lot compared to the previous chapter and platform sections that I consider out of place.

    Spectacular game, perfect graphics, badass soundtrack, fast gameplay and lots of blood of demons.
    How can someone give this game a bad rating? this is a work of art that releases dopamine when played

    Doom Eternal, the highly anticipated sequel to the rebooted Doom franchise, is a frenetic and exhilarating first-person shooter that pushes the boundaries of fast-paced action and adrenaline-fueled combat. With its unapologetic emphasis on pure, unadulterated chaos, this game delivers a relentless experience that keeps players on the edge of their seats.

    The combat in Doom Eternal is    Doom Eternal, the highly anticipated sequel to the rebooted Doom franchise, is a frenetic and exhilarating first-person shooter that pushes the boundaries of fast-paced action and adrenaline-fueled combat. With its unapologetic emphasis on pure, unadulterated chaos, this game delivers a relentless experience that keeps players on the edge of their seats.

    The combat in Doom Eternal is the star of the show. It is fast, fluid, and brutally satisfying. The game encourages players to be aggressive and constantly on the move, rewarding skillful maneuvering and precise gunplay. The introduction of the new "Meat Hook" mechanic adds a layer of verticality and strategy, allowing players to swiftly traverse the battlefield and unleash devastating close-quarters attacks. Each encounter is a carefully crafted dance of destruction, requiring quick reflexes and tactical decision-making.

    The level design in Doom Eternal is a masterpiece of intricacy and variety. From the depths of hell to the desolate landscapes of Earth, each location is meticulously crafted with attention to detail. The environments are visually stunning, with a perfect blend of grotesque and awe-inspiring imagery. The levels are filled with secrets to discover, rewarding exploration and offering additional challenges and upgrades for the player. The pacing is superb, seamlessly transitioning between intense combat arenas and atmospheric exploration.

    The game's arsenal of weapons is diverse and satisfying to wield. Each weapon has a distinct feel and purpose, encouraging players to experiment and adapt their playstyle to different situations. The addition of weapon mods and upgrades provides further customization options, allowing players to tailor their loadout to suit their preferences. The range of demonic enemies, each with unique strengths and weaknesses, keeps the combat encounters fresh and challenging throughout the game.

    Doom Eternal's soundtrack is an absolute powerhouse. Composed by Mick Gordon, the heavy metal and industrial-inspired tracks perfectly complement the intense and frenetic gameplay. The music amps up the adrenaline and immerses players in the chaotic world of Doom. The dynamic nature of the soundtrack, with its layered compositions that adapt to the player's actions, adds an extra layer of intensity to the experience.

    The game's presentation is top-notch, with stunning visuals, smooth performance, and a dark and gritty art style. The attention to detail is remarkable, from the grotesque designs of the demons to the visceral animations of the glory kills. The game runs flawlessly, maintaining a high frame rate even during the most intense battles, ensuring a seamless and immersive experience.

    While Doom Eternal is an exhilarating ride from start to finish, it does have a few minor drawbacks. The story, while intriguing, takes a backseat to the relentless action, and the narrative can feel convoluted at times. Additionally, the game's difficulty may be too punishing for some players, requiring precise timing and quick reflexes to succeed.

    Overall, Doom Eternal is a triumphant return to the franchise, delivering a pulse-pounding and visceral experience that sets a new standard for first-person shooters. Its relentless combat, exceptional level design, and stellar presentation create an adrenaline-fueled symphony of chaos and carnage. With its solid gameplay mechanics, awe-inspiring visuals, and an electrifying soundtrack, Doom Eternal is a must-play for fans of the genre. It's a true testament to the power of pure, unadulterated action, earning it a well-deserved 9/10 rating.    … Expand

    Doom jest to seria, która zaskakuje z odsłony na odsłonę, a Eternal jest najlepszym z nich wszystkich.
    Dobra fabuła ze świetnym gameplayem duży asortymentem broni i przeciwników pozwala jeszcze bardziej wczuć się w świat gry.

    A grand experience, just mindless killing and fun that is for the story mode and dlc. The bonus horde mode added recently adds a good challenge for the endgame players. The only bad thing is the battle mode which is rough around the edges and a bit unfair to the slayer player.

    I've never been a DOOM fan. I checked the old games only a little bit. Beat the 2016 version, liked it but didn't love it. The movement felt too slow for the kind of game it was, and was a bit too linear with mostly same-y areas. But I can easily say that DOOM Eternal is one of, if not THE BEST, action game ever made.

    Everything is fast, just like you are. Environments keep on changing as you go back to your spaceship and teleport to location after location. Ammos for guns are intentionally low so that you can keep on juggling them and create even more mayhem. This way combat never gets stale and it's brilliant. The music keeps pumping you on as you slaughter horde after horde. Surprisingly even the storyline is brilliant. Somehow they connected literally every DOOM game into one continuity, hence Eternal. There were so many "Holy **** moments, I couldn't even keep track of them. Can't actually believe it took me this long to play it.    … Expand

You are not here to receive a gift, nor have you been called here by the individual you assume, although, you have indeed been called. You have all been called here, into a labyrinth of sounds and smells, misdirection and misfortune. A labyrinth with no exit, a maze with no prize. You don't even realize that you are trapped. Your lust for blood has driven you in endless circles, chasing the cries of children in some unseen chamber, always seeming so near, yet somehow out of reach, but you will never find them. None of you will. This is where your story ends. And to you, my brave volunteer, who somehow found this job listing not intended for you, although there was a way out planned for you, I have a feeling that's not what you want. I have a feeling that you are right where you want to be. I am remaining as well. I am nearby. This place will not be remembered, and the memory of everything that started this can finally begin to fade away. As the agony of every tragedy should. And to you monsters trapped in the corridors, be still and give up your spirits. They don't belong to you. For most of you, I believe there is peace and perhaps more waiting for you after the smoke clears. Although, for one of you, the darkest pit of Hell has opened to swallow you whole, so don't keep the devil waiting, old friend. My daughter, if you can hear me, I knew you would return as well. It's in your nature to protect the innocent. I'm sorry that on that day, the day you were shut out and left to die, no one was there to lift you up into their arms the way you lifted others into yours, and then, what became of you. I should have known you wouldn't be content to disappear, not my daughter. I couldn't save you then, so let me save you now. It's time to rest - for you, and for those you have carried in your arms. This ends for all of us. End communication.… Expand

    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.
