    I loved playing DOOM and plowed through the game in a weekend, but after it was over it was tough to go back. The snap maps and multiplayer offered little incentive as snap maps felt so samey and could have been used for a rogue-like mode. Anyway, the game is still awesome despite any flaws.

    O melhor do gênero e isso é inegável!

    Os devs fizeram um trabalho incrível aqui, trazendo gráficos bonitos com uma otimização incrível, sendo um dos poucos jogos que rodam a 144fps sem muita dificuldade. A gameplay é frenética e exige uma boa estrategia quanto a escolha dos alvos e das armas nas maiores dificuldades. As boss fight's poderiam ser melhores, mas funcionam. A trilha sonora

This is how you revitalize a franchise and crank the intensity to a whole new level. Doom moves at a pace other FPS games can't match, but it doesn't come at the cost of confusing the player. The enemies also puts an exciting adrenaline rush to the gameplay, which forces the player to constantly move and be aware of the surroundings. One of the reasons all of these parts work so well is because the game never wastes the player's time. Every quicktime event and cutscene generally lasts for five seconds at maximum and then immediately cuts back to gameplay seamlessly. The soundtrack in this game is also incredible, with its thundering guitar riffs and explosive drums, while also adding some groovy techno beats into the mix, it truly sounds like a heavy metal wet dream at some parts. The Snapmap editor is also phenomenal, as long as you are creative and imaginative, and you can create some really impressive levels in there. The only big problem with the game is the multiplayer, because it doesn't contain the charm of the singleplayer and feels very modern (class customization, emotes, etc.). While it is still decent, thanks to the somewhat vertical level design, it's nowhere near as good as the campaign. I'd say that you most definitely boy this game, solely for the singleplayer with its riveting soundtrack. while the multiplayer feels lacking, the Snapmap editor will come as a fun surprise, and I strongly recommend this game to anyone who enjoys this hobby.

    Das Einzige, was mich ein wenig gestört hat, waren die Kill-Aufgaben, die einem in jeder Mission gestellt werden. Wenn man einen bestimmte Gegner auf eine bestimmte Art töten soll, kann dies schon nerven und nimmt Geschwindigkeit raus. Daher habe ich ab ca. der Hälfte des Spiels diese Aufgaben ignoriert und mich einfach dem Spielfluss hingegeben.

    Good graphics. AMAZING gameplay. Amazing controls. Good story even if it is a revisited old-style FPS; it has some secret places where there are old levels of old DOOM games. Skill and runes system is good and lets the player to choose which ability fits better his game style.
    Must-play for all FPS fans.

    I like it, but the fact that they lock you from going back in the level to pick up things you missed is really messed up. It seems totally unnecessary and means you either frequently have to restart whole levels or use a walkthrough for the whole game. You only get one checkpoint too. So you can't go back more than one checkpoint. This is a huge flaw.

    I found out later that you can replay the level and pick up the things you missed then quit. That's nice but not ideal.

    Using an X-fi Titanium HD and AD700 headphones (basically as good as it gets) I feel the positional sound is very poor.

    Overall a fun and great looking game.

    I am not a big fan of horror games, but this is really well-done. Really interesting story and well-told through out the game(play). Amazing level-design, amazing design of the demons, weapons, music. Basically everything is very well made.

    Doom is a first person shooter, continuation of the legendary series of the same name. I really love the original doom from the nineties, I have so much great memories of playing it as a kid. And that was precisely why I had been sceptical about bringing doom into the modern era. And I was wrong. It turned out great. Yes, it is slower paced than the original, but not by much.

Honestly, I thought the game would shorter, so I was positively surprised. The graphics is really beautiful and suits the doom world perfectly. Also, the game font is very nice. The soundtrack is just fantastic: pure heavy metal and sometimes variations on the original doom music. The Introduction of the glory kill makes the combat even more fun and forces you to move through the battlefield more. The second highest difficulty was perfect for me throughout the whole game. No microtransactions, no SJW crap.

    Just pure fun, this is what an FPS game should be like. Final Verdict: 88 %

    First Doom game I've played so I went into this as a virgin and came out with Doom 2016 being my favorite first person shooter I've ever played. It isn't a typical first person shooter by any means, and kinda spits in the face of modern gaming tropes. Really refreshing. I loved this and look forward to playing Doom Eternal if I ever get the time.

Juegos que son hermanos, pero cada uno se diferencia bien del otro y aporta al jugador una experiencia divertida y única. El hecho de que DOOM haya vuelto es por el gran número de fans que desde 1993 quedaron prendados del primer DOOM y su universo demoníaco.

    Masterpiece, must-have for any PC gamer. This game is actually so good, that you won't find any game like that in 2020. No forced playstyle, dark and scary atmosphere, dynamic and brutal gameplay with no bs at all. Great optimalization and quality of the audio & visuals. Only multiplayer is kinda mediocre and feels unpolished, if not that it would be a 10/10 for me.

As we know, with most cases of reboots, they don't turn out to be exactly as expected and under performs for that reason. And yes, this game DIDN'T turn out to be as expected. It exceeded our expectations! The gameplay is the BEST THING EVER! The gunplay has never felt this great in a Doom game before! The level designing was great, for the most part. The only issue I had was towards the end. The gameplay started to get a bit repetitive at that part and the game was running out of tricks in terms of offering us something refreshing towards the last 2 levels. However, besides that, the gameplay with the campaign length felt alright for the most part! The story itself, while very light, gets the job done and is actually quite good. I loved how iD Software was trying to create something different with the story, providing its own lore. As the Doom Slayer, the game establishes you to be a powerhouse, and that's what the game does so perfectly! You feel unstoppable and even more so with how the story progresses, which is genius! The music INCREDIBLY factors on you being a powerhouse too. Mick Gordon did a perfect job composing the music. He found the perfect balance of trying tho match music with the tone and atmosphere of the game. Mick crushes the scores and the game is far superior for it! The campaign itself was absolutely excellent. Though the multiplayer may be the weakest part of this game, I still thoroughly enjoyed it and it brought me back to that arcade-like feeling with it. The Snapmap feature was also pretty fun and a good addition to this game. Essentially, it's the most basic way of replacing modding for the game. However, it was just as fun. Overall, the game was absolutely brilliant and really well made! Damn near masterpiece! I'm willing to round it to 10 out of 10. Expand

IAs a single player game it would've gotten my game of the year nomination. The campaign is beautifully designed, with appropriate difficulty progression and enough unlocks to keep things fresh throughout. Although some might feel it deviates too much from the original games by adding unlocks and upgrades, it makes the combat, in my opinion, so much more tailored to your personal style. I spent all my points on the rocket launcher and the double-barreled shotgun, but my roommate decided to spend the points he earned on the gauss cannon instead. It's fulfilling and each fight is tactical, letting you choose how to engage the enemy, when to use your special weapons and when to glory kill demons to quickly gain health to get back into the fight. The weapons are powerful and intense, and Id should be commended for making the campaign one of the best FPS experiences this year.
    SnapMap's ok. I don't use it much other than to make stupid arenas where ludicrous amounts of demons spawn. I've heard complaints of limitations due to consoles but in all honesty you really need to be ambitious to push those limits.

    Multiplayer is kinda dull. The weapons feel weak and there's no teamwork. The demon rune system is alright, but I've seen a good share of teams doing nothing but running solo against the demon only to get rekt. It's a bit too much like Halo, and that's a pity. It feels boring and it doesn't really commit to either fanbase of modern shooters and arena shooters. leaving you with a surprisingly generic experience. Also remove glory kill animations. In multiplayer you're as good as dead if you stand still in an animation. I really don't like the token system. Why should someone spawn with extra armor? I hope that doesn't come back. There's a lot of customization, but you'll need to unlock them. They range from different armor sets, colours, wear and tear levels and light schemes and emblems. Well done there except it's obvious some colours help you blend into the environment better.
    EDIT post update 6.66 I feel the multiplayer is more balanced and fun, but due to the declining population of the game, I feel that this game should almost solely be judged on its campaign. Perhaps Quake Champions will fill the multiplayer old school shooter slot. who knows.

    Graphically looks superb. The gun models look great and the environments are eye candy. A lor of praise for the team who made going to hell a sightseeing trip. A lot of pop in textures when loading and the draw distances aren't so great, but when everything works(which is most of the time) it looks great. I maintained a solid 60FPS and I can't wait to see how the Vulkan patch helps performance. I can't tell many differences switching from medium to high quality anyway, but the low graphics settings are pretty demanding themselves so be warned you'll need a decent rig to run 60 FPS.
    EDIT: the vulkan patch didn't do much for me, tested on GTX 970 and 1080. AMD users may get a bigger performance boost.

    Is there a story? Not really but I'm not here for one. Is there a tutorial? No not really. You start and off you go! there's hints and stuff but honestly it's great to see a game without a half-hour tutorial. Ending was mehhhhhhhhhhhhh but I wasn't really committed anyways. There's optional lore for those who want to read it.
    The music is great. Mick Gordon really captured the tone and energy of the game. It feels aggressive, with rock and metal pounding during the intense gunfights. I hope the OST gets released. It is one of the best soundtracks this year.
    What would I say needs improvement? I gave it a 10, but that's based off how much i enjoyed it. If i could pay just 40 USD and only get the campaign, there's not much I can really complain about. Fix the multiplayer and some of the weirder glitches here and there and it'd be fine.
    Also the easter eggs are amazing. I'm still missing one mini doom-guy figurine but I'll keep looking.
    EDIT I have found it now.

    What this game make perfect is that, I never thought that killing evil creatures could by that much fun. Great fps, one among the best. Kinda feel like a Wolfenstein The New Order but instead of nazzis you have hell. Variety of weapons is pretty, game is well balanced. Map design is also very good. Minus one point for repetitive feel in the end.

Здесь вам и толпы врагов, и море безумия, и много забаввных шуточек на протяжении сюжета, и собирательство, и хороший мультиплеер, и куча экшена, и литры крови, и еще много всего, всего, всего, чего сейчас не хватает ни одному шутеру. Даже при учете, что игра, по большей степени, является "коридорной", это не мешает ей затянуть вас на еще парочку часов геймплея. Разработчики, вы просто молодцы! Я получил от игры столько, сколько и хотел получить и даже больше!
    Отличная графика и музыкальное сопровождение будут вас сопровождать на протяжении всего геймплея и это действительно круто! Отдельное спасибо разработчикам за полную локализацию игры в России, и что вы не просто отделались субтитрами, а добавили полноценную озвучку, что позволило мне не чувствовать себя в роли гражданина страны третьего мира. Что удивительно, сюжет в игре тоже есть (почему-то у меня DOOM никак не ассоциируется с сюжетом) и он вполне неплохо заходит. Собирательство тоже на неплохом уровне, порадовали куклы, которые очень напомнили пипбоев из FallOut, мне даже кажется, что это как-то связано! Финальные боссы просто шикарны, все трое! В общем, DOOM зарядил меня нереальной энергией и подарил мне очень много эмоций и впечатлений. Как по мне, так это лучший шутер последнего десятилетия, очень удачный, очень красивый и очень очень! Обязательно буду продолжать в него играть и рекомендую это сделать всем любителям шутеров, вы ни коим образом не пожалеете!

    Моя оценка игре: 9,5/10, дополнительные пол балла приберегу на вторую часть игры! Наслаждайтесь, господа! Кстати, не удивлюсь, если DOOM станет шутером года, рядом с ним, по личным ощущениям, только Gears of War 4.

Smooth 75fps on my rig (where I Vsync it on my PC) with max settings, great shooting, there are some forced cutscenes that break up the flow and are blasphemy as far as Classic Doom style is concerned. This is the sole reason it has a 9 instead of a perfect 10. They absolutely should not be trying to shoehorn this style of storytelling into this series. It's all about the go-go-go.

    Massive maps and an outrageous soundtrack. Best shooter since Doom 1 and Doom 2. No hyperbole.

There was something extremely satisfying about the original DoomAs a fan of the original, I came to the 2016 Doom with very high expectations and I was still impressed. It is not hard to take notice that the developers were fans of the original Doom as well, because the core gameplay plays and feels exactly like the original. This may sound odd and critical, but I only mean to praise. There was something extremely satisfying about the original Doom -which to this date very few FPSs achieved-, whether it is the music and sound effects, the gunplay or the monsters. Doom introduces a new concept called “Glory Kill”. When you inflict enough damage, monsters start to stagger triggering the ability to execute a Glory Kill, a gory visual that feels immensely satisfying. Music is awesome, even if it isn’t as good as in the original Doom and I have found myself headbanging while doing glory kills one after the other. The whole time I played through the campaign, I felt the same sense of addictive gameplay and fun of the original Doom.

    Is it perfect? No. The multiplayer was obviously not the main focus of the game designers (in fact the development thereof was outsourced), but it is still fun to play as a good old FPS deathmatch if you keep your expectations low. As for the single player, the levels lack variety and overall look and feel quite similar. I could not help but feel déjà vu throughout the campaign. Gameplay can also feel repetitive at times, considering the entire campaign has a very obvious loop of throwing monsters at you. Story is also trivial, but chances are slim that you play Doom for the story.

    But all its shortcomings are easily forgiven, because playing Doom is so much fun.

    PS: If you are any good in FPSs, I highly recommend playing this in ultra-violence difficulty. It is challenging, yet never unfair. I have the feeling this is how the game is meant to be played.

    After RAGE several years before DOOM 2016 released, we were left wondering “what now?” RAGE had a lot of interesting ideas, but some of them weren’t executed properly, but still a decent shooter with interesting world, for sure, but it was no DOOM. Then, DOOM 2016 released and woah,

    Then, DOOM 2016 released and woah, this is how you do FPS games, especially one carrying the weight of such name. DOOM 3 wasn’t bad, but it was a clear departure from the classic DOOM I & II formula, for sure, still also a decent game with revolutionary graphic techniques back in 2004. But man, DOOM 2016, which is not DOOM 4… because as we discovered years later, DOOM 4 was going to switch to a more “Call of Duty” formula of gameplay…yikes (and then they scrapped it, thank goodness)…well DOOM 2016 is an amazing game, in all aspects, and one of the top FPS games of all time, in my honest opinion.

    The gameplay has amazing pace and speed, the need to switch weapons on the go, depending on the type of enemies, is crucial and adds that layer of adrenaline pumping needed at times; the huge maps with lots of corridors, locked doors, secrets, are there, but also other more open areas too; the weapons themselves look and sound amazing, now with two types of upgrades each, most of them; and the new mechanics added, like the double jump or the Praetor suit upgrades are an interesting touch as well.

    Now, on the PC this game is still a technical marvel, being one of the first triple A titles with proper Vulkan support, along with the old and trusty OpenGL, but Vulkan offers like a solid 40% extra performance compared to OpenGL, simply because the ID Tech 6 engine paired with this API is able to fully utilize our CPU cores in the most efficient way for the game. So, on my 4690K at 4.4 GHz and GTX 1070, I can play at max settings, 1080p, and still get like 170 FPS average, that’s insane, and it feels super smooth on my 240 Hz g-sync monitor. This engine is amazing for this type of game, Id Tech knows this, and I can’t wait to play DOOM Eternal with its new and improved Id Tech 7 engine and of course the Vulkan API once again.

    For controls, of course mouse and keyboard are best, and the keybinds are quite left-handed compatible, I’m a lefty so I need decent keybinds around my arrow keys, which I use for movement, so this game is quite nice in that regard, no problems whatsoever. I think the TAB key cannot me mapped to anything, and it’s still used for the map I believe, so I added that key to one of my mouse’s extra buttons, no big deal. I can map every different weapon to a key, so I can quickly swap to the proper tool for each encounter, just like if I was playing a Quake match, that’s how you do it.

    I played the multiplayer component quite a bit when the game launched, although it didn’t hold my interest for more than a couple months, since it’s a mix of different styles of other famous FPS shooters, but didn’t feel very old school and classy like the old DOOM games. Still, they did an amazing job with most of the multiplayer maps, some of them are quite breathtaking and could perfectly pass as decent Quake arena maps, no problem. Really good job on the maps, whoever did them, I loved them.

    I didn’t really used much the snap-map stuff…I’m not much of a modder / map creator, but it was an original idea and I know some people had a lot of fun with that. I understand it’s not coming back for Eternal, so it seems they decided it was not worth the effort in the end.

    Overall…I could keep talking about this game for years, honestly, it’s a modern looking FPS game with that old school feel to it, and what I mean is that I can fire up the game today, and still enjoy it like it’s new, because just like the classic DOOM I and II games, I love starting a new play-through full speed mode and see if I don’t die, If I remember all of the secrets, and just…because it’s a lot of FUN.

    Oh, and I forgot, the animations for the demons in this game are INSANELY good, the team in charge of these deserve a lot of recognition…these demons have some of the best video game animations I’ve ever experienced, they feel “alive”, they’re vicious, they’re super smart, and everything is so smooth that it’s unbelievable to see all of these monsters, small, medium and huge, so well animated, trying to pulverize the player with such beautiful animations xD.

    A well-earned 10/10, best FPS game of 2016 for me, and still top 5 FPS game of all time probably for me, it’s just that good, buy this game if you haven't today, it's 2019, it's quite cheap on sale, and DOOM Eternal is around the corner, which continues the story that this game started (yeah, DOOM has story too, you know).

    DOOM is not about multiplayer. Nor is DOOM about finding power ups or keys or secrets or upgrading your weapons or knowing whos or the whats or the whys of some contrived story.

    DOOM is about putting the headphones on and cranking the volume up and pushing the big red button in the middle of the room that unleashes the 1000mph psychotic demon onslaught and smashes your face in. You move. You dodge. You aim. You shoot. You do not think. You do not stop. You just kill, kill, kill, kill, kill. And then the room falls silent, and you snap out of it clutching a chainsaw and covered in blood. Doom is about flipping the table on the most terrifying lucid savage nightmare conceivable with shotguns and adrenaline.

    DOOM is a gorgeous, old school, badass, heart pumping, joyous, brutal, frothing at the mouth, heavy-metal masterpiece. It is a game about mindless epic blackout fugue state murder sprees, no more, no less, and it **** delivers.

Essentially Doom 2016 is Quake with a Doom layer of paint. The mp is Unreal Tourney with the Doom layer of paint. Those looking for an in depth story this is not your game. This game has always been about mindless killing. What little story there is, is not bad. This game is fast paced run and gun DO NOT sit still. This isn't Call of Duty, Battlefield, Destiny etc. This is a run-n-gun or die trying game.

    Doom 1 & 2 games were pretty straight forward. Walk into a room full of Hell and kill it all. There were some puzzle aspects to it.
    Doom 32x was basically the same
    Doom 64 took that same approach and tried to add a linear story to it.
    Doom 3 turned to a darker story with a linear story which most were not a fan of but i thoroughly enjoyed.
    Doom 2016 is a basically a buffet of all of those things. There is the linear story and you will walk into an area where all hell breaks loose and you must survive to move on to the next area.

    If you're looking for a gorgeous fast-paced shooter that doesn't require thought process to comprehend whats going on but want a challenge staying alive this game is for you. Its a nice change of pace from "camping".

    I'm about 9 hours in and this is the most fun I have had with an FPS since the original Quake series came out. Great job id & Bethesda! The music by Mick Gordon is superb and really fits the atmosphere well. The visual effects are just jaw dropping. The level design is very well done and creative. It's easy to get lost in a few levels and takes some skill navigating.

    DOOM is fantastic and immensely satisfying. It sets aside sniping, cover, and all the other FPS conventions of the last decade, and brings back the hardcore DOOM experience at an astonishing level of polish. The single-player campaign is the most fun I've had playing a game in years. I can't recommend the single-player campaign highly enough.

Well, I'm going to go back to playing folks. If you're on the fence, get it. Especially if you're an old Doom1/2 fan like me, heck even 3.

    Note: I played some multiplayer. Here's my thought on that... If you EVER plan on playing the singleplayer, do yourself a favor and play through it BEFORE doing MP. Experience the game, weapons, and levels at the pace the developers intended. It is much more rewarding and fun. MP spoils that a bit by showing you all the areas and guns right away. That being said MP does bring back some classic "Quake Arena" styled mayhem and I do enjoy it. Snapmap creations are coming in, and are pretty cool! We'll just have to deal with flashy pink armor and hearts on it -_-

    ID software have released their best single player campaign in a long time. And off the heels of Wolfenstein TNO and TOB Bethesda really seem to be taking the right direction with their dev teams for great FPS games. Bring on the DLC for this game and a sequel :)

    Multiplayer is pretty fun, but it feels too much like CoD/Halo. They should've gone all out old school quake-ish feeling instead.

    Fast paced and unashamedly coming from the old school of FPS design, DOOM (single player) is a kinetic bloodbath of guns, gore, and glory!

    The campaign mode is not the longest, but there is a hell of a lot of replayability and screeds of secrets to secure.

    Imagine if someone decided to translate the original Doom and Doom 2 style of game directly into the modern day. That is what you're getting with Doom 2016, for good and for ill.

That is what you're getting with Doom 2016, for good and for ill. I personally found the game very enjoyable, but it should be added that I was really wanting a fast-paced shooter that was single player and the newest game I had that was scratching that itch was Serious Sam (preceded by Painkiller). I sat down with this game and asked it to keep my pulse up and send me on a gory, exhilarating ride as I mowed down the legions of Hell. And it delivered exactly what I asked of it.

    This game is a very literal translation of the earliest shooters, your Doom's, your Wolfenstein's, your Duke Nukem's. On the good side, you have the fast-paced, frantic gameplay that the old ones had, and it came up with a few ways to keep the flow going as much as possible. The weapons are viscerally fun as ever and, aside from the starting pistol, none of them are ever really useless. There is a surprisingly elaborate upgrade system added that (amongst other things) helps keep earlier weapons competitive with their late-game cousins and you're free to settle into a gameplay style that suits you. The enemies are varied (though the majority of them are familiar to those who have played any Doom games) and the game moves at a decent difficulty curve. Now, on the bad side, I can say that some weapons wind up being a little vestigial depending on your play style; the double-barrel shotgun in particular was almost unused during my playthrough. Additionally, the map design is... well it's not *bad* and you can tell where you're going, but it carries that maze-like quality that the old 2.5D shooters had, so if you don't like that you won't care much for that. Though there's a very nice degree of verticality to it. As for the gore... well it's what you'd expect--simple gratuitous violence that makes your inner thirteen year old giddy if you're into that sort of thing. Again, if you don't like gore, then don't buy this game.

    Now, you may have noticed that I didn't mention the story. Well... here's the thing. For the game you have, the story is exactly what it needs to be. Set-up: you wake up chained to a sarcophagus in the midst of an invasion of Hell on Mars inside a UAC facility and it's up to you to do the cleanup job. Obviously there's a bit more to it, but it's not exactly an operatic plot... but it does what it needs to do. The thing I do like is that the few characters there are have a neat amount of characterization, there's a lot of background storytelling (particularly involving the sort of place the facility you're in and what it was like prior to getting invaded), and the Doom Marine himself has a bit of characterization. Now, when I say that, he's still a silent protagonist, but you can read a bit into his actions, little things like the way he hesitates at certain points in the plot, the sheer brutality he shows towards the demons, and the way he interacts with certain objects. The story is shallow, but it's as deep as it needs to be. It keeps the story afloat and it's enough to make you comfortable in the game world, and it succeeds at what it sets out to do.

    Basically, if you want a successor to the old Doom games, you have it. If that is what you wanted, then consider this a MASSIVE recommendation, 10/10, gold star, A+. It was what I wanted, and while I'm normally an RPG guy, I still found this a fun escape from all of that. Alternatively, if you are uncertain on whether you're interested in this kind of game, I'd recommend trying Painkiller or Serious Sam 3 first to do an interest check (and potentially save money). This is a game that knows what it wants to be and hits that point with full marks. It is a game that I know not everyone would care for, but I personally loved it.

The variety of game modes also keep the game from getting stale. The campaign is also great. The story is there if you want it, but it is pushed off to the side. While this is a negative for some, it really puts the focus on the game play, which is great. Each new area is inspired and all of the weapons have their own unique purpose. I never found myself sticking to one the whole time. The reason I am not giving this game a perfect 10 is that I had some problems running it at first. I don't know if it was my drivers, which I reverted from the newest version in an attempt to fix it, or if it was just a day 1 issue, but the game crashed quite often while I was playing it, especially during the campaign, although that issue seems to be resolved now. Another strange thing is that to switch between multiplayer, campaign, and snapmap, you have to restart the entire game, as if it is actually 3 separate games. Other than that slight annoyance, I really have no problem with this game. If you are looking for a high action, intense FPS, Doom is the game for you. Expand

Obviously, the mass majority of them are either people who have never played the original Doom games, and know nothing of what the original is about, and the other half are the purists, who say the game is too slow and that it's not a carbon copy of the original, so it sucks. Because innovation is bad, right? Now, there is also a small crowd who haven't played the first 2 games, but have played Doom 3, which was totally a deviation from the originals, and was poorly received on a whole. This is also a crowd that has never watched the e3 demo, or any of the videos released prior to launch, they were just like "oh hey I remember that game it was really scary." and was shocked when they found out "hey this isn't scary, 0/10." Another common complaint is that the game is repetitive, which is complete bs. This game has a massive load of replay value, due to the 5 difficulty levels and the numerous upgrades and weapon mods available. I completed my first playthrough on ultra-violence (hard), and my second playthrough on nightmare (very hard), and I'm currently attempting ultra-nightmare (1 death and it's game over.) And this game is STILL extremely fun. I don't get how anybody could not have fun with this amazing piece of artwork. Now, another thing I commonly see (mainly on steam reviews, but on here as well,) are people who have played 10-30 minutes of the game, and then leave a 0/10 score and refund the game. To which I have to say, did you really even play the game? You can't even complete the first mission in 30 minutes, much less actually try the multiplayer, or snapmap. These are people who just want to hate on the game because they think it's cool to do so. Not actual Doom fans, just casuals. Second, this game is MADE for PC. There are so many graphics settings, and the game is so well optimized that I can run it on my laptop, which has a GTX 960m in it, which is a horrible horrible low grade chip, in 720p 60fps. On my main rig I play 1440p, 120 fps. Yeah, it's really, really well optimized, which is amazing considering how AWESOME this game's graphics are. So please, ignore the hate reviews and just try the game for yourself. If you're a fan of the originals, you'll have a blast! Expand

    A much better version of Doom compared to Doom 3. Doom 3 tried to be too scary. It was kind of the thing to do with shooters at the time.

There are secrets, just like in the original, and I never thought I would enjoy collecting such stupid little figures before. There are little doom dolls, kind of like Funko POPs on each level, and when you find it, a little clip of the old dooms music plays. Puts a smile on my face everytime.

    There are also hidden parts of the original levels of doom in each level. You have to find a hidden lever, switch it and a wall or unique looking door will open. Its really is well thought out. they seem to progress down the original lvls as you progress down the levels in this doom.

    Im not positive, but I believe this is how you unlock the old doom levels. I had the option to play the hanger level after I found one. Was quiet a bit of fun. remembering old secrets and completing it.

    I've only played about 3 hours of the 13 hour campaign but it has been very entertaining. One big grip I have is there seems to be no way to fast switch between weapons on the same key. for example the pistol and chainsaw are both set to the 1 key. You hit it once, and you get the pistol, hit it again and you get the chainsaw. I thought you could maybe just double tap the key to get the second weapon, but you have to hit one, wait for it to cycle to the pistol then hit one again to cycle to the chainsaw, for a fast paced shoot em up this seems wrong. Maybe I am just missing a quick key. the plasma rifle and the chaingun are also both on the 4 key.

    I have yet to try the multiplayer, but its probably not going to be my thing. I really just wanted the nostalgia of a good doom. The multiplayer looks to be more like Quake Arena.

    It has everything that makes the franchise so good : a fast (even though slower than the 90's iterations) pace, loads of guns, gore and demons, complimented by Mick Gordon's incredible soundtrack.
    Sure, the multiplayer feels a bit off, when compared to the standards set by Quake 3, but good lord it was so much better than any other
