    The sophistication and fluidity of the combat in this game is amazing. Doom 2016 is crap compare to this and any here claiming otherwise is blinded by nostalgia for that game lol.

    its a good fun game, just annoying that you pay for an expensive soundtrack that has a game attached to it.

    Downloaded and played the Doom previous to this one and its worth playing both, fun game where you can jam out and destroy and kill everything and if you want to make it difficult for yourself you can do that too.

    What epic game highly recommend. i know i don't have a lot of hours on PC version but that's because it kept crashing, but I beat it on PS4 and it worked perfectly fine.

    First of all, let me just start by saying the soundtrack on this game is AMAZING. The Best Soundtrack Award is there for a reason.

The Best Soundtrack Award is there for a reason.

    An absolute blast from start to finish and one of the most polished games I've ever played. Visually stunning environments and animations. Immaculate pacing with just the right amount of puzzles/story/lore interspersed between sessions of heart-pounding action that is only enhanced by excellent use of the soundtrack. Challenging enough for every level to be an adrenaline-filled rush but not so difficult as to be frustrating. Same goes for the collectibles, bonus levels, etc — everything is compelling without being intrusive. I was also amazed at how well they managed to capture the spirit of the original DOOM games I played as a kid in a modern format. (For example, I never would have thought that in 2021 I'd be playing a shooter with no reload keybind, but somehow it just works.) Did I mention the game has a great soundtrack?

    The genre and thematic approach isn't for everyone, but even as someone as someone who typically prefers games with a lot more depth than DOOM has (story-driven RPGs, strategy games, stealth action-adventure, etc) I still loved it it from start to finish. It's easy to pick up and put down at a moment's notice whether you have 30 minutes or 4 hours to blast through hordes of demons.

    In a time filled with buggy, unfinished, forever-in-early-release, oversold and under-delivered games, it's refreshing to see one so refined and filled to the brim with attention to detail. Overall, an exquisitely crafted game and worth your hard-earned dollar even at full price.    … Expand

    Don't whine about the game, don't whine about the game being too hard, and especially don't hate on the others for not being able to complete the combat loop's. #RipAndTear #NeverGiveUp #ShootEmUntilTheyDie

    An absolute blast. At first, I thought DOOM would be a fast pace shooter like cod or bf franchise which i don't really like. OH boy i was wrong.

    Bethesda & id have done it again. They've managed to make an amazing sequel to Doom 2016 by building up on 2016 gameplay and adding more depth. The end result: one of the best shooters on the market, and one of the best shooters of the last 10 years.

    Doom Eternal is a 'game' in the purest sense like it has always been, it's about nothing more than going in and having a blast, few games have brought me fun like DOOM has as I've already completed the campaign, and I certainly will replay all of it very soon just because the core gameplay is so much fun!

    Game of the 2020.
    Exquisite attention to detail and level design. Perfectly paced. 522 hours in and every Ultra-Nightmare run is still FUN. This game is FUN.
    Legendary sound track.

    Massive action shooter that returned to the roots of classic - you run you kill you rip and tear. Hard day at work? Play this. Your friends left you? Play this on Nightmare. This game is sometimes like therapy session but with heavy weaponry and badass music.

    Everything you would want classic DOOM to be, but with modern graphics and technology.

    There's not much to say about this title. It's DOOM in a modern jacket and it managed to improve on pretty much everything. Even the music is great.

    Extremely challenging and crushing on ultra violence and nightmare difficulty, but totally manageable and balanced if you know how to play properly. This game will have you spitting out your own teeth and bleeding from your ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, but you'll love every minute of it.

    DOOM Eternal makes DOOM 2016 seem like a game for toddlers. It's faster, harder and better. There are however complaints which I find overdramatic and strange: "This is not DOOM 2016", "No ammo for anything" or "Game restricts how you play". There are hints of truth in every complaint of course, but only if you do not look at the whole picture.

    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.
