    The modern equivalent of a stress ball. Real fun to blow off steam and have a blast.

    Nice game to relax to, you won't understand the story without watching like 2h of videos, but the game is not about the story, it's about slashing and shines in that aspect.

    Maybe he is a God. Maybe he represents human kind's rage - their will to persevere, to overcome that which would threaten our survival. He is uncompromising, a relentless being of violence that knows no mention of the hesitation shown by our many leaders and politicians during our time of judgement. Can he overcome them? Alone? If he can't - we, as a species, ALL species, will not survive.Maybe he is a God. Maybe he represents human kind's rage - their will to persevere, to overcome that which would threaten our survival.

If he can't - we, as a species, ALL species, will not survive.

    The only thing they fear - is him. We watched as the horde overwhelmed the very best and most advanced machinery and weapons technology that we could muster against the opposition. It was useless, they moved too quickly, they cared not for themselves, only sought out the blood of humanity. They were willing to sacrifice their own to get to the heart of our world. We slaughtered thousands and millions more followed, but then he came - he cut through them like a sickle through a field - his fury surpassing their own. He is faster - more relentless. I believe him now to be more than just a man - he is...DOOM.    … Expand

    Best single player FPS I've ever played. This game is incredibly involved, and that will likely be a huge obstacle for first time Doom Eternal players, and it might even enrage them; it did for me. I highly recommend at least keeping visual tutorials on. I personally turned off the tutorials that pull you to the demo room, but many of you might be tempted to turn off all tutorials.

I highly recommend at least keeping visual tutorials on. I personally turned off the tutorials that pull you to the demo room, but many of you might be tempted to turn off all tutorials. Turning off all of the tutorials will likely make every one of your big arena battles absolutely miserable because they throw every enemy, that you're supposed to understand how to fight at that point, at you in a single fight. It is really fun and exciting when you know the enemies weaknesses, because you are firing on all cylinders and using all your tools in the right way. All in all, great visuals, great gameplay, interesting story, 10/10 game in my book.… Expand

    I have already beaten the PS4 edition on my PS5 and both dlcs, But I love this game so freaking much and to be honest the PC version is better the controls are easy to adapt to and I am running a solid 250 fps.

    Amp up the difficulty to get the most out of this game. Story is alright, lore is better, gameplay top-notch. Recommend getting the DLC on sale, but they are a must. At their worst, it feels like more DOOM; at their best, the base game feels like a tutorial and this is where the real game starts.

    This is the best first person shooter I have ever played and possibly the most fun I have had playing a singleplayer in a videogame.

    An awesome game about killing demons. This is basically what I see and imagine on a screen. A game I highly recommend.

    Fun and family friendly, unless your family worships Satan.

    I must admit, the extra controls compared to 2016 were a pain to get used to, especially as i am a grade 11 dumb ass with 3 brain cells, but when you get used to it, its a whole new level of fun and saying i love it is an understatement. I learned how to play a speedy game like this from Shadow warrior 2, and that only just    Fun and family friendly, unless your family worships Satan.

I learned how to play a speedy game like this from Shadow warrior 2, and that only just helped when it came to teaching the player the type of aggression needed.

    I will be honest, i did start on easy unlike everyone else, but to be honest, i would recommend it because if you are mentally slow like me, take awhile to learn new play styles, or just want stress relief through shotgun exorcism, it's fine to go easy. Nobody's judging you.

    As a final note, strangely i got a weird vibe from the boss design that made me think of a lot of styles from past video games, like pre-2013 i think. it was fun to have a game where i didn't have to sneak around or avoid a nuclear rocket powered bullet sponge with a sword the size of Texas. Really helps to feel like a game rather than just dark souls with a shotgun or a political statement.

    Worth every penny. Cant stop thinking about ripping and tearing occasionally and just have to get back on the game.

    Better than DOOM(2016) in every department except the horror side but I don't see that as a problem.

    The combat is amazing, and so is the parkour. The puzzles are also amazing and it is overall an amazing game!

    Much higher octane than the last game. Also a lot more brutal, almost to the point of being too hard. Around level 4 or 5 is when it really clicked though. Very worth it.

    Was skeptical at first about the game, but I started playing, then I couldn't stop. It's just so much fun. Lots of secrets to unlock, the battles are super fun. I love it!

    I am LOVING this game. I haven't tried multiplayer because the single player is so amazing. I was shocked at how much fun I was having. Soundtrack of heavy metal to go along with the murdering of demonic forces is one of the best combinations ever. Highly, highly recommend!

    Compared to DOOM 2016, Eternals improved movement mechanics, gunplay and level design makes this the better game overall.

    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.
