    It's not game of the year because Overwatch. Yeah Overwatch. Unlike boring and linear Doom 3, im just in love with this game, story too, story has great potential for a lot of sequels.

    Doom is a gorgeous fast paced single player FPS like the old days. Great monsters with good AI, amazing feeling weapons, superb level design, and a perfect soundtrack to tie it all together. If you have ever enjoyed the FPS genre...play this game.

    The new DOOM is exactly what I expect from a modern FPS game. Extremely fast, no cover mechanics (Using cover is not an option in this game - you have to keep moving), cool enemytypes, dodgeable projectiles, great weapons, good leveldesign (not just short tube levels), great graphics, excellent sound, strong music.

    DOOM is a game for people that want to be challanged. The different difficulty levels actually change up the game instead of just changing some numbers for weaponstats. Higher difficulty = more enemies.

    The story is basically irrelevant - which is a good thing. There is some humor involved, though. At one point the game even mocks the player by locking him in a room to listen to a stupid robot explaining useless stuff - just like Call of Duty and all the other "Cinematic" games. id Software knows its playerbase. :)

    I really hope for a sequel.    … Expand

    Following in the footsteps of Original Doom, this is an incredible game and another milestone for FPS!
    Imagine the same people playing Doom in their childhood for the first time, being blown away and glued to the screen, growing up to become game makers and then actually paying back a huge tribute to the most important game of the decade - that is Doom 2016.

    I was in awe about the creativity, homage, goryness and overall perfect art style! The music is something to behold - a totally new reimagination of the midi metal riffs of the original, taken 5 steps further - just awesome!
    The cherry on top are the Vulkan drivers which, when set up correctly, give you a flawless, fluid experience like no other and a huge fps boost.

    The gameplay is simple but hella fun and addicting, the several types of demons r amazing, the brutality of this game kinda feels casual after the first hour but that's not sth I rly care about. The boss fights were quite fun but maybe a little bit too easy (on normal mode) - the hardest unit in this game (for me) is probably the shield boi that can srsly piss you off... In total I give this game a ten out of ten - The only reason this was close of being an actual 9 for me, is probably because this campaign kinda felt short... I mean, holy **** the game catched me so hard - I couldnt stop playing it but suddenly, after beating the last boss - which was a little bit anti-climatic as he was hella easy on normal difficulty ... or did I play on easy? I was quite disappointed in how fast everything ended... But even that isn't that big of a deal as you have then the choice to just replay the game but on higher difficulty, or play the multiplayer or play that special ''arcade'' mode... In total I can recommend this gamr to every shooter fan. This is the most unexpected masterpiece I've ever played.    … Expand

    Doom is pretty dang fun. If you want a fast-paced gore-fest game, Doom is right for you. If you get tired of killing demons then head on over to the multiplayer. Both are great and so is the game itself.

    9.9 / 10 the best doom experience, everything is made so that you feel that you are playing as the doom slayer, the glorius kills (epic each and every one of them and the best thing is that they all match the frenzy tone of the work), the weapons (the same as in original doom only improved in design and including the ability to improve them so that they are more useful in combat), the9.9 / 10 the best doom experience, everything is made so that you feel that you are playing as the doom slayer, the glorius kills (epic each and every one of them and the best thing is that they all match the frenzy tone of the work), the weapons (the same as in original doom only improved in design and including the ability to improve them so that they are more useful in combat), the music (which I can say has not already been said bgm division one of the best soundstracks that has had this franchise and totally fits with the tone of frenzy that the game wants to tell / show us), and including the collectibles and skill points system (these last two are very well carried out making it feel natural to have to investigate to get collectibles and obtain points to improve your character, since the player can decide whether or not he wants to search for collectibles but if he does not do it he will be a little less powerful than he should be, making in the end all do falls on him and on his decision of whether or not he wants to look for the collectibles, perfectly integrated from my point of view) everything is perfectly carried out perhaps the only downside I find is that the bodies disappear from the stage when in the doom original this did not happen, the bodies were there, but well for everything else it is a great game and one of the best exponents of what is doom.

    Ah, DOOM 2016, what a return to form of Id Software and their amazing First Person Shooter expertise.

    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,    Ah, DOOM 2016, what a return to form of Id Software and their amazing First Person Shooter expertise.

    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, 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).    … Expand

    This is cool, this is blood 'n' gore, this is hardcore, this is......HEAVY METAL. Hordes and hordes of demons to kill. Glory Kills. Arcade Mode, Snap Map Mode. This is so intense and filled with extreme action. There is absolutely no horror in this game like Doom 3. So my favorite Doom game will still be Doom 3. But I can definitely recommend this Doom game.

    No lengthy review required. Just buy it and play it (preferably on PC). Rip and tear until it is done.

    Id Software knocked it out of the park. Honestly, I don't remember the last time I felt this good playing an FPS on PC. Butter-smooth framerates on aging hardware and no bugs or issues whatsoever. I cannot wait for DOOM Eternal.

    Mick Gordon, thank you for an amazing soundtrack. Doom 2016 was the last game to honour the intention of the original. Run around and kill monsters, and try not to think too much. This game is the perfect expression of the design intention. Fast, balanced, artistic. The best way to unwind after a day at the office.

    Doom is like no other modern fps, when most fps games are just copy and pasted experiences, getting more and more worn out as time goes on, Doom stays consistently good, whether your slaughtering hundreds of demons or exploring to find well hidden secrets, Doom stays at the top, calling back to its older brethren whilst also being original on it's own.

The Collectibles can make a huge difference to your overall gameplay and makes a real difference. You want to find every single collectible because the maps are designed so amazingly that it doesn't feel like a chore to do. the enemy designs and variety is astonishing. Every monster/demon has its own way of attacking and then there is the gore.... Oohhh the mighty gore and blood when you brutalize one enemy after the other and you can't help but smile and laugh at the imaginative ways you can rip enemies apart. Upgrades to weapons are awesome and you really need skill and drive to complete the game on the harder difficulties. Mods and other workshop things ad to the multiplayer experience. The Story is compelling, although it is out worldly and you are thrown into it head first, and the characters and voice actors do an amazing job. Especially Darin De Paul as Samuel Hayden. All these things would in itself make a really good game. And the overall feel to the game is amazing and you really feel like you are on a different planet fighting demons. But there is one thing that takes Doom from being a great game, to being a perfect game.
    The sound design and soundtrack is the best ever made to fir a first person shooter and the best in any video game since GTA Vice City. Mick Gordons soundtrack of chucking guitars, electronic sounds mixed into the game on the base of the more enemies you face the more music there is and the heavier the music gets. You slash, hack and blast through waves of spawning demons that keep on coming. You pull out the BFG and end the last ten enemies with one shot and the almost deafening sound of the blast and it's impact, paired with the hammering of Mick Gordons song Flesh and Metal or Cyberdemon suddenly stops all at once like it's sucked out of the room you are in in-game and all you hear is the wind and the vague and atmospheric background music as silent as a whisper. The experience is completely unique to DOOM and all these elements combined makes this game one of the best ever made and if id Software can somehow improve it in the next chapter of the Doom Slayer. I'm afraid I'm gonna start crying out of shere joy when I hear Mick Gordons music and I start ripping things apart.    … Expand

    There isn't a fight in DOOM that I didn't walk away from with a bit of disappointment. Not because there was anything bad about it, but because I eventually run out of demons to kill.

Parlons un peu de cette merveille :

    Les points forts :
    + Doom est de retour dans un FPS rapide, nerveux, les armes claquent, la sensation de shoot est parfaite, les glory kills tabassent et renforce encore le dynamisme et la nervosité du titre, niveau game design on est sur quelque chose de ca-li-bré.
    + Le level design est super agréable, avec des niveaux assez verticaux et labyrinthiques qui invitent à l'exploration et à la grimpette pour récupérer quelques améliorations ou défis bonus.
    + L'ambiance du jeu, complètement démoniaque, en symbiose parfaite avec son gameplay. Doom est sec, nerveux, vous tend, vous mets en transe par ses gunfights acrobatiques et frénétiques sur des démons effroyables, sur fond de métal mystifiant.

    Les points faibles :
    - Les checkpoints sont fréquents et assez bien placés, mais je me suis parfois senti vachement puni sur des phases de plateforme ou d'exploration où la moindre chute ou impact avec un élément du décor offre directement un game over et force à redémarrer un gunfight terminé plus tôt.

    Pour conclure, qu'est-ce que vous faites encore là à lire des évaluations ? Doom est indescriptible, Doom ne s'explique pas, Doom ne se raconte pas : il se joue. C'est manette en main que vous ressentirez ces sensations, cette frénésie partagée avec le Doom Slayer. Alors prenez Doom, faites vous votre avis sur cette ambiance et ce gameplay qui parle d'eux même et si vous n'êtes pas satisfaits, vous pourrez toujours rembourser le jeu en y jouant moins de 2 heures.    … Expand

    What more can I say about this game in all honesty?! This game really did take me by surprise! At first, before this game's release, I was very skeptical.

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

    I went in not expecting much but my impression turned around shortly after the third level when the enemy variety increased, i acquired more mods to change my playstyle and finally got my hands on some more powerful weapons.
    Parts of the game a bit too arena-ish and some of the guns, despite my initial euphoria are a bit underwhelming - plasma gun for instance.

Even ones they lead you to belive are not in the game. If you love any Doom there is no way you wont like this. The finishers, chainsaw, vaulting and double jump ad all new dimensions to the already supreme formula. The additions are often useful and don't feel tact on at all. The guns are pretty brutal on their own, but their is so many ways you can make them more powerful. Just like in New Order, you can complete challeges to unlock special abilities. You can find secrets to enchance the suit, and you can play trial modes that teach you hidden tricks ontop of unlocking yet a another new set of abilities. There is one secret at the end that I figured out by playing the last level of Doom 2. Won't say much but John Romero will be happy. I hope to see more Doom games like this come out soon. I have a feeling Quake is the direct sequel that will tine into this. Call it a hunch. Bet it will be just as fathful to the origional with castles and space weapons.

    I gave this a point off because it isn't the most perfect looking game. There is no campaign co-op, just co-op in snap map. The story isn't too exciting and it slows down the action at brief times, soundtrack can get too repetitive and is nothing special. At least the origional tune made it in. There is one bug in the close the well mission. I killed the last enemy with beserk mode active and I was locked in the room with no escape. I thought I was lost for an hr, and it made me restart the last check point.    … Expand

Not only is this a truly exciting and action-packed experience but it looks BEAUTIFUL. I don't have the strongest rig but this thing played FLAWLESSLY. I've played games with lower requirements that didn't run as well. This is some seriously thought-out production. So the game is straight-forward: you kill stuff and then go to hell and kill some more. There isn't much in terms of plot but this is Doom. There's a storyline but it's thin, but that's OK. Here's the meat of the burger: gameplay. Crazy, loony and berserk madness. These demons are NOT dumb. Well sometimes they are but for the most part they won't stand there and get killed. They're quick, resourceful and armed to the fangs. They're ugly and mean and merciless. The level designs are clever and vast. The navigation and maps are simple and effective so you never get lost or confused. The arsenal is nuts. So many weapons. Where does he put them all?! I did have an issue with the customization as it was TOO elaborate at times. You get two types of grenades which is fine but I could've used a third since I never found out what the Argent grenade did exactly. I rarely used the hologram but it was a nice addition to the equipment stack. Lots of final upgrades require challenges and those are pretty hard. Plenty of hidden stuff (look for grates and floor/ceiling panels BTW) hidden everywhere that can be found on the maps. As for the aesthetics: just astonishing. The environments are detailed and rendered perfectly. The lighting is awesome looking. The sound effects are crisp and varied. The voice over work is very good and well written. There's not much of it but it works when its there. There are little to no faults here. It's just that amazing.… Expand

    Doom single player and snap maps is good. What sucks is the multiplayer.

    No capture the flag, only 2v2 in snap maps is the dumbest thing i've seen in an FPS. CTF was always my favorite in every game like quake 2, 3, ut, tf and tf2. How the hell did they omit this in doom no one can figure it out. Also the class system is just stupid, this game shouldn't have classes. The weapons,    Doom single player and snap maps is good.

    Also the class system is just stupid, this game shouldn't have classes. The weapons, power ups and everything else should be picked up. There should also be a server browser. 90% of the time I cannot find a game, I'll be searching continually until I give up from waiting to find players. Also I noticed theres a season pass for $60 WTF.
    Love the game but hate it as it has almost no end game considering multiplayer is awful. Wish John Carmack developed this    … Expand

    If you can max this, oh my is it beautiful. And they don't go half-♥♥♥ on the gore. Action fires up quick, and before you know it you're blasting away baddies to the glorious sounds of their kick-♥♥♥ arsenal. A metal doom soundtrack is kickin' away at all the right times. If you explore enough, there's lots of little neat easter eggs and secrets as well. I love all the little touches toIf you can max this, oh my is it beautiful. And they don't go half-♥♥♥ on the gore.

If you explore enough, there's lots of little neat easter eggs and secrets as well. I love all the little touches to this game, that there's still keycards and colored skulls to unlock various doors. 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 -_-    … Expand

    I'll never forget the amount of negative attention this was getting prior to release.

    Then it came out. Yea it had a few flaws, but it's going down as a one of the great fast-paced FPS's of the decade. Multiplayer was a failure but the excellent singleplayer made up for it. The game goes on sale for cheap now but was totally worth the full price. Everyone should play through    I'll never forget the amount of negative attention this was getting prior to release.

    It's DOOM done well. There were few bosses, weapon progression was good as always. Game play became repetitive at times, little variation in maps. Story was good enough to hold your attention.

    Worth playing, did most things right. Missed some key points of effort to make the game great.

    Awesome, meaty, enjoyably grindy single-player FPS campaign - not for little snowflakes. The game is all about movement, reflexes and shooting a shed load of demons - very addictive, be advised.

    It follows the tradition of Doom, but with several upgrades. A kill'em all fiesta with weapon and armor enhancements, secret areas, collectibles. Nice graphics, music,sound. I would just like a bit more of a story, but it's... Doom.

    Old-school ass-kicking with a Metal soundtrack. What could be better? Oh, there's also multi-player and a very good level editor if you've got time.

    Five Word Review: Classic modernized awesomely, runs fantastic!
    Favorite Thing: The combat. It's so frantic and fast paced, none of that slow cover nonsense. And the guns ... ahhh, the guns.
    Least Fav Thing: Firing the BFG is too risky ... it just might crash the game.

    Playtime: 23h (100% SP completion)
    Enjoyment: 9/10
    Recommendation: Hell yeah.

    I have to admit, after the poor Beta and some lack lustre preview videos i was skeptical on this.

If you are a true doom fan, you should love this. Its probably the fastest shooter i have ever played, certainly in the modern era. The guns are punchy, the combat excellent, and the graphics are superb. On top of all that the game is very well designed. It was a smart person who said "level design is everything". And doom is basically a tribute to its ancestors heritage. Not quite as groundbreaking as its predecessor, but damn is it a fine shooter. Just need to make sure you have a decent rig. I have an i5 with a GTX 580 and I have to turn everything off and put the settings to low, and it just about manages it. Anything lower and you would need an upgrade.… Expand

    If you miss Doom, you miss what I anticipate to be one of two most important first person shooters of 2016. The classic returns in great shape, with all its vital elements intact. Give the campaign some time to pick up speed and it will pump your veins full of adrenaline. [07/2016, p.38]

    A tribute to Doom that leaps to great heights, but fails to fully stick the landing. [Issue#252, p.60]
