Hell yes, This game is Perfect, I've never played anything Better, This game is the Messiah of FPS games, i Love it so much, I've already played Two campaigns and i'm Starting another, There will Never be another game that bethesda makes, that will top this, I Don't See it Happening, This is my Favorite game, and I Hope it's Yours too, And here's my review on each level of the game

    -Hell on earth: Its a Little tedious, But still a good level nonetheless, I Enjoy the Level building and Scenery, Its Very Hellish, as That is the Underlying Tone, Well, i should say Overlying because there are Giant demons Walking around Helping the Invasion of earth.

    -Exultia: This level is One of my top 3 Because it gives you Two ability's that are Important to your Survival Later in the game, For instance, Blood punch, it's helped me in some Very Hairy Situations, Its where if you Glory kill Two fodder Demons, Or later One Heavy/Super Heavy demon, It will fill the meter, And dashing is part of the Movement that i Absolutely love

    Cultist Base: hate it, no, but you do get the super shotgun and rocket launcher in this level which is one of my main combo's so i guess it'll do

    Doom hunter base: don't like it, no, the doom hunter is alright to fight, its just annoying

    Super gore nest: I Love this one, Its not my Favorite, But Still Phenomanal, I Love the Gore key's aspect to it, Its Very fun and i rate this level a 8.5 Out of 10

    ARC Complex: Hands down my Favorite Level, Its Fun, Exciting, Long, And best of all, At the End, You get to fight the Marauder, my Second Favorite enemy to fight

    Mars core: 2 things, 1, false advertisement, 2, BFG 10K

    Sentinel Prime: its fun, i don't like the gladiator though, 5/10

    Taras Nabad: it's alright, Love the archvile's Design, Hate the archvile though, However, Regardless of my unending Hate for the archvile, I Don't want it Changed, Its a Fun challenge, And It will Teach you how to be a Good Slayer

    Nekravol: yes

    Nekravol Part II: yes yes

    Urdak: Oh, my, god, its So Beautiful, and i Love the Boss Battle with the Khan maykr, Its Fun, challenging, And most of all, Its the Second to Last Level in the game, meaning when its Over, You get Giddy and Excited to Finally Beat the game.

    Final Sin: i have no words on how much i love this level, its fun, challenging, it racks your brain, But most of all, You are allowed to Fight the Icon of Sin, The Final Boss to DOOM Eternal,

    Overview: This game is Hands down the Best game i've Ever played, Nothing will Ever top this, DOOM 2016 was Great and all, But Doom eternal, It Blows DOOM 2016 Out of the Water, I Love this Game, And i will Never stop Living This game, I'm Convinced that This game in particular, Will Never die, Its Amazing, And i love it to Pieces, I Wish the Maximum rating i could give was Above 10, i Love this game So much, that When i have enough Money, I Will buy the game for All of my friends

Sinceramente el review boombing que está recibiendo me parece penoso, yo le otorgado el 10 de nota porque creo que merece eso y más, si al DOOM (2016) le di un 9, éste debería de tener un 12. Pero siempre ocurre que a los aficionados les cueta aceptar los cambios y quieren la misma fórmula una y otra vez, pero sobre Bethesda hay que decir que ha ido con todo, ha apostado muy fuerte y les ha salido un juego magnifico, que creo que en realidad le gusta a los fans que son realistas y al nuevo público que se están interesando por la saga DOOM en general. Lo recomiendo al 100%, antes de juzgar recomiendo jugarlo, porque la trama se desarrolla escalonadamente y el climax evidentemente está en el final. Expand

Platforming was easy, but there more a lot of it which I don't mind. Combat is really intense and butt clenching in each of its own terms. Storytelling was greatly understandable (esp in codex) and it really doesn't take the game away. The only thing that I find kinda sad was that you could kinda see who the Doom Slayer is at this point. I wanted him to be a big mystery of a superhuman.

    Now for all these people that complain that so many has changed in Doom Eternal. It was for the betterment of it. Mainly because its a sequel meant for more varieties to happen. The devs were right, they doubled down as many things could happen compared to 2016. I don't see myself going back to 2016 for the gist of it as well. Its like improvement is being bad for you doomers who can't even get good in this game.

    People rant about the AMMO, in all honesty there are many scattered ammos around arenas, even the respawning fodders of which you could chainsaw. "The chainsaw became a reload weapon." Since when has it not? You have to use the chainsaw effieciently during your battles. Not when all your weapon ammos are depleted. Hence it refuels quickly. Don't get your arse stuck up when everythings low because you've got the mentality of only using it on occasions. 2016 basically has too many ammo that you just constantly use one weapon most of the time, aka super shotgun. Doom Eternal teaches you to use the each of your weapons which makes your gameplay more fluid than ever. I can't believe you guys just can''t handle what weapon is necessary for each and every demon. If you properly use your ammo resources, then you'll still have a lot in the end of the combat.

    The MARAUDERS are there to show off your skills if you can take this demon down instantly. Shooting him brainlessly punishes you to die. This demon basically controls the arena where the others won't, thats why hes so unique. The mf is basically your demonized reflection. "BuT dOoM is SuPpOseD tO be a FaSt pAcE gAMe" Yeah if you actually learn how to beat the Marauder, you'd beat him in less than 20sec tops. Hell, prolly even 10. Here's a tip, stay mid-range from him and super shotgun or ballista him when hes near. Don't shoot his shield for crying out loud. The wolf only comes out when you do it. That''s why you never shoot brainlessly.

    Level Designs are too complex? Excuse me but I remembered 2016 to be too dull and repetitive considering its just full on red. Its also tight in many combat areas where theres no free flow to roam around in. Even if the platform is like Mario, I would never doubt you that you couldn't finish them. They're easy to bypass and understandable. Atmosphere felt in place as well considering each level designs are very different from one another.

    Punching does nothing? Blood punch basically destroys most of the enemies in Eternal. Maybe you people forget that theres such a thing as that one. If you people can't comprehend the amount of throwables at your hand, then you're not thinking through and through on your gameplay, no wonder why you love 2016 so much. Its not even required for you to use them, considering you control what you play, but its necessary to use these to help your combat.

    For the story, I have no saying of it considering I like it, but many do, I do not know why but its everyones perspective.

    I guess people really want realistically looking games, how does cartoonish graphics make the game look more ugly?

    Even Doom 2016 was easy to beat to why I kinda got bored to it. Nightmare you say? that doesn't spice things too much even that one was okay to deal with. Doom Eternal's difficulty is rewarding and great. Even if i lost, Ive had extra lives in my hands and it rewards you into becoming an actual Slayer.

    In all honesty I think the people who whine are the ones who can't see themselves playing hardcore action skilled fps games at all. These people can't handle quick thinking and just blatantly relies on going all on no mind process shooting. Go back to call of duty if that's what you're after if you want simple repetitive game mechanics. Its you who has a problem with the game, not the game itself.

    shotgun go boom boom but it cant target the weak points of the mancubus }As for the story it is given a much bigger emphasis than doom 2016 but you can skip the cutscenes if you are not interested{although it is a pretty good story} and it leaves some questions for the next doom game to answer.And in the end if you dont wanna play it then dont, none is holding a gun to your face and making you play it but you are loosing one of the best games ever made with one of the best osts evers

    IDK why much hate here, if I wanted same mechanics and gameplay than 2016, I would play snapmap instead a sequel.
    I love new habilities, gameplay, etc. It is perfectly balanced but I see there are too much people without tha capacity of play in nightmare, If you are a cry baby, go to play another game where you can pay to win

    TL;DR : DOOM ETERNAL is brilliant and you should play it, NOW. (but first, look up some gameplay, and don't come there to complain about the platforming).

    This game is an absolute masterpiece.
    It has everything the previous games have, improves on many aspects, and might be the best shooter i've ever played, period.

    Pros :
    - The mobility! What lacked in speed in DOOM 2016 and in verticality in DOOM and DOOM2 is now perfectly implemented with the use of double jumps, double dash, monkey bars, wall climbing and THAT BLOODY MEAT HOOK!!! (aka the best grappling hook that a game has ever given me)

    - The level design is amazing! It feels so much less linear than in the previous opus in the series, and the fact that it's not in cramped industrial facilities makes roaming these incredibly huge maps an absolute delight. Some people may prefer the more futuristico-realistic setting of the 2016 DOOM, but I think it's much better to see more of the worlds.

    - The weapons have all been overhauled, both visually and from a sound/feeling standpoint (with two exceptions, i'll be back to that later). No more pistol. All doom games had this useless pistol, but now it's been replaced by a shotgun. This is a true Brutal-Doom fan's dream. The useless mods (rotating minigun barrel, shock bomb, scoped rifle, and triple-shot shotgun) have either been replaced or enhanced (full-auto shotgun, ice bomb as an equipment, the scoped rifle is now a sniper rifle, etc.). Even though I prefered some previous designs and weapons (the minigun, and the Gauss cannon instead of the Ballista), all weapons feel fantastic and are now unique.

    - The music is bloody amazing. It's like listening to a metal album while playing the metal album. Everything in the music is so polished, it's just incredible. Some may say that there are fewer memorable tracks, but that's because the combats are so much more intense you literally can't afford to pay attention to other things.

    - Speaking of combat, the combat in DOOM 2016 was brilliant, but you didn't need to micro-manage your ammo and health as much as in the original games. In Eternal, the combat feels like ballet. Heavy metal ballet. With big guns.
    The combat in 2016 also lacked mobility and it was especially slowed down by the fact that there was a maximum amount of demons in a single room at a given time (12, iirc). In Eternal, it's rare to find fewer than 12 demons in your close vicinity, and...

    - ...Since the bestiary is now double, or even triple the size of the previous game's, the variety in demons pushes the pacing up to 9000.

    - IT TOOK THEM 25 YEARS, BUT THEY FINALLY MADE A CYBERDEMON 3D MODEL THAT IS FAITHFUL TO THE ORIGINAL! And it's not even a boss! They made it a regular enemy! Speaking of that, all the bosses are in fact first encounters of normal enemies! And that's great because it spices up the combat so much!

    - This whole section is a mild spoiler, so don't read it if you're concerned about being spoiled.
    The Marauder : some hate it, I personally think it's the best enemy in the game. Imagine being in a stressful fight, and then a Marauder comes: you now have to think strategically and plan which demon to kill first, whilst paying attention to the Marauder's moves. It spices up the combat and most importantly, it teaches you a different way to play the game.
    Playing like in doom 2016 won't do you any good, because if you want to be efficient against the bigger enemies in Eternal, you NEED to be in constant movement, and you NEED to know and master the quick-switching. And before you meet the Marauder, you don't know any of that. It's brilliant.

    - The story is great and you can finally skip the cutscenes! (most of them, anyway). And now there's lore! And they even managed to connect pretty much all doom games!

    - Nightmare mode doesn't *just" deal extra damage, it actually speeds up the game, makes the enemies more aggressive, and makes lesser demons spawn more. That's the best overhaul to the difficulty system that i've ever seen in a game.

    Cons:
    - Okay, some of the platforming is a bit unneccessary. Especially in the second level, or the Doom Hunter base.

    - The game is much more arcady, and that might be unpleasant to some (ie, the loud "pop" noise when you headshot a demon, or the glowy pickups, or the floating guns. I'm not a huge fan of these, as I prefered 2016's more "cinematic/realistic" approach. But i guess it's more faithful to the original games. Eh.

    - The BFG and another super-weapon that I won't name shares the same ammo, and the same weapon wheel slot. The issue is that you don't pickup BFG ammo in early maps, and it's very scarce in the late game, so you don't get to play with the super-weapons as much as you could in the previous titles in the series. What a shame.

    - Batllemode with friends won't work on the Bethesda.net version, because there is no friends list in that **** launcher. F* you, Bethesda.

    Mejoraron la jugabilidad agregando la habilidad de "Carrera" o dash como todos le dicen, lo que hace que podamos esquivar ataques mas feroces y salir de aprietos pero sin romper el juego... y si que es útil, los enemigos son tan c4brones que un Caballero del infierno o un Pinky del juego anterior no son nada comparados con estos.

    Los enemigos al ser mas jodidos que antes, entonces ya cuentan con la mecánica de los puntos débiles, los cuales es obligatorio saber utilizar si o si, por que aparecen tantos enemigos que si no los ocupamos y no nos aprovechamos de esos puntos débiles entonces nos aplastaran sin problemas.

    En este caso el juego nos fuerza a utilizar todo nuestro arsenal, no es terminarse la munición de un arma y cambiarla por otra, hay que utilizar todas.
    La cantidad de munición a siro reducida a mas o menos un 40 por ciento en comparación del juego anterior. Digo, la escopeta pasó de tener 60 cartuchos a 24 como máximo. Eso hace que tengamos que utilizar la motosierra mas a menudo y no hay que mortificarse al utilizarla ya que aun que nos acabemos la gasolina el primer uso siempre se recarga con el tiempo.

    Agregaron granadas normales y granadas congelantes, sumado de un lanzallamas que nos sirve para conseguir armadura. Y a la superescopeta le agregaron un gancho que nos sirve para aventarnos hacia los enemigos.
    Eliminaron la clásica pistola y he visto reseñas en los que se quejan de eso, pero siendo realistas ¿cuando la han ocupado en el juego anterior? Su uso era muy puntero y se limitaba a el principio del juego ya que en niveles avanzados no servía de nada, y en este caso me alegro de que la retiraran, ya que si no lo ocupábamos en el juego anterior y siendo que en este caso los enemigos son mas difíciles y rápidos ¿Serviría de algo realmente?

    Algo que si considero negativo es que ahora el cuerpo a cuerpo ya no puede debilitar enemigos con el, por que ahora hasta un simple zombi o poseído soporta todos los golpes que les des, pero al menos los aturde un poco.... eso y que hay zonas donde hay una especie de líquido morado que nos limita el movimiento, nos movemos muy lento, y ni si quiera podemos saltar, mientras que todos los enemigos se pueden mover con total libertad.

    - En cuanto a sonido.

    El soundtrack es espectacular, transmite lo que necesita y es frenético sin llegar a cansar.
    Los sonidos en general están bien, pero hay unos detallitos que no me gustaron, como por ejemplo: el sonido de disparo de la ametralladora pesada, se escucha como simples clicks y no transmiten fuerza como en el juego anterior y que los gemidos de dolor del Slayer apenas se escuchan, por lo que pasan desapercibidos (a menos que hayamos activado los sonidos clásicos, pero rompen con la inmersión y la estética del juego).

    La interfás en los menús no me gustó del todo, ya que es muy agresiva y demasiado lleno de detalles sumados con una fuente para el texto algo cuadrado... a "O" parece un rombo :/ aunque en los textos largo al menos utilizan otra fuente.

    En cuanto al HUD... se ve bien pero como las cosas vitales son tan pequeñas al final no las vemos para nada cuando la cosa se pone fea y mucho menos las escuchamos cuando recargan, ya que tanto ruido durante el combate hace que simplemente no se escuchen y para acabarla de amolar, casi no se ve la carga de las granadas o del lanzallamas ya que los iconos se ven muy traslucidos, y al no poder verlos entonces utilizarlos es casi una apuesta.

    Otro punto a destacar es la introducción de los niveles maestros, los cuales son los mismos del juego pero desde el principio te encuentras a enemigos bastante duros... te aparecen 2 tiranos apenas empezando los niveles.
    A pesar de que los niveles maestros son muy buenos, todavía hecho de menos el modo "Arcade"

    Lo único que detesto del juego es que si tenemos internet inestable y si se pierde la conexión con Bethesda.net entonces el juego se pausa y nos pone un letrerote en nuestra cara y odio que interrumpan la acción de una manera tan invasiva. O que tarda una eternidad en cargar los niveles si le cuesta conectarse a los servidores.
    De a perdis lo hubieran hecho como en Borderlands 2, el cual te ponía un letrero a una esquina de la pantalla y no pausaba la acción para nada.

    P.D. No mencione nada del modo Battlemode ya que al parecer está mas muerto que el multijugador del juego anterior ya que nunca encuentro partida, así que no lo he podido probar :/

    Y si en un futuro se les ocurriera agregar algún multijugador pues preferiría que intenten imitar un Quake.

    I thought that Doom 2016 was perfect, fast paced, brutal, awesome soundtrack, challenging, and i just expected Doom Eternal to be the same. We are so lucky that it isn't. It's so much more!

    Some people said "If i wanted to play platform games, i would play Mario". Don't be that person and then you will have lots of fun and challenge, mainly in the higher difficulties, which i recommend.

    Sometimes it feels heavy and too intense, these times don't be ashamed to take a break, i needed sometimes.

    Some times i thought that i would not be able to pass certain demon or area, but i think that the creators made something similar to the Dark Souls idea, you need to learn the patterns of the enemies and know your weapons, have no mercy, use everything that you have, and you will be rewarded.

    Doom Eternal is absolutely one of the best games i've ever played, one of my favorite, like Doom 2016, it's a hell of a evolution of the Doom Formula and i can't wait for the next!

    Truly one of my favorite games of all time. This is the standard all other modern games should be held to. If you are considering buying Doom Eternal, just do it. You will not regret it, it is exhilarating and challenging but so much fun, and these developers truly deserve our support, especially with how rotten the video game industry has become nowadays.

    I have played Doom 64, and Doom 2016. This is by far the BEST. It has more to do than most DOOM "purists" may like. It has puzzles in between fights which slows the pacing down (didn't Doom 2016 also have puzzles too? If i remember correctly there were some puzzles in 2016), and the fact that you use the chainsaw for ammo, the punches

    I have played Doom 64, and Doom 2016. This is by far the BEST. It has more to do than most DOOM "purists" may like. It has puzzles in between fights which slows the pacing down (didn't Doom 2016 also have puzzles too? If i remember correctly there were some puzzles in 2016), and the fact that you use the chainsaw for ammo, the punches for health, and a flame ability for armor, creates a very deep and rewarding experience (easy to play/hard to master). Sure, you may have to slow down and THINK a little about your next move, but it allows the game to be very rich and rewarding as you adjust and get better.

    The multiplayer (Battlemode) is addicting and fun, and more replayable than it already is. I just highly recommend beating/getting good at the campaign before jumping in. It can be intense with all of the currently quarantined pros online. Also, where is the horde mode? Please give us a horde mode!

    An absolute mind blowing hell of a ride and return to the Doom franchise! Doom Eternal is basically more of Doom 2016 but bigger, better, and crazier! This game has intense fast paced combat, incredible level design filled with awesome secrets, more interesting enemies, and more of the awesome Doom lore unfolding as you play! The delay is sure did payoff! So much amazing content plus moreAn absolute mind blowing hell of a ride and return to the Doom franchise!

    The game is a blast to play. bouncing around and blasting demons and watching them explode is satisfying. The music is just great. there in my eyes is not much better then this game.

    A all out improvment to 2016s doom. They delivert waht they told they would, which is sadly rare nowerdays.

    This game is one of the best fps of the last years. The shooting feels good and it's fast, at higher difficulties becomes really challenging and requires you to think and manage your resources. The story is good and not overly complicated.
    I would have given a 10 if not for the marauders that ruin the pacing of the game.

    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.
