    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 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. The gameplay is crisp, and the engine is very well optimized. ID really is trying to set a new bar for smooth FPS gameplay and it shows.

    The combat loop is so good and when you master the quick swapping it is so rewarding but if you do not like quick swapping there is other alternatives also.

    Best FPS to come out in recent years. The story/lore is quite good too, and completely optional if you'd like to just kill demons. 10/10

    The game is one of the most polished titles I have in my game library. It just works so well, incredibly optimized and has lots for you to customize (the HUD for me).

I paid full price when it came out but now the game already goes to 50% discount often and that is completely worth the price to play if you are on the fence. The story is wack in a good way, just enjoy all the pretty colors and intense action! Expand

    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.

    This game will punish you for your mistakes, especially in the higher difficulties, but it's AMAZING to master. Once you're in the zone, quick cycling weapons, chainsawing minions and ripping and tearing everything in your way it provides and experience unlike any other.

It's fun to play, a bit complicated and hard to learn but with an awesome payoff and the music is one of THE BEST game soundtracks you'll ever get the pleasure to listen to. I'll definitely be buying the dlc for it in order to keep on slaying demons! Expand

    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. As another reviewer once said, it's a fast-paced blood-fueled game of chess. You will constantly need to monitor your health, armor and ammo. Very rewarding combat, spectacular arena design, and superb graphics. 10/10

    Best singleplayer fps shooter currently out there, truly epic game. Battlemode while kind of cool is barebones.

    Rip and Tear until you are done (which is never, btw). You will never stop ripping demons apart.

    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.
