    This game is outstanding. ID Software it's one of my favourite. Did a great job, also with the optimization!

    Gorgeous graphics, even for a 2016 game, great gameplay, story is pretty good as well, Snapmap (though havent spent much time there) seems quite good as well and multiplayer....couldve been better but is still a pretty decent experience. One of the top FPS's out there for sure....

    Meaty atmosphere, stunning graphics, amazing OST and fun gameplay made this game great for me. It's great to have a game that you feel yourself as a Main Boss killing everything around you.

There are still some thing in this game that kinda felt out of place, like this ratio of exploring the world and actually having battles, I believe the game could've have had a lot more enemies around the levels. The story wasn't that innovative, but still enjoyed those few characters we interacted with. But to be honest, DOOM didn't need a complicated story anyway. Overall, If you enjoy FPS-games, this has to be a Must-Play for you. Expand

    An awesome game
    I smile to comments of 'true fans, who have been playing this game for decades', but they point at the storyline absence. Lol... ;)

    DOOM is an exceptional game. It proved to other developers how much people miss the faster and less realistic shooters, and that was very important for the progress of the FPS genre. The game itself i starts great but winds down in the end due to the gameplay being the same

    DOOM was a very solid return for the franchise but the game in its core feels very retro and like the originals, as a modern shooter DOOM lacks some very important elements like a intriguing story, variety, decent multiplayer experience (i'm not saying modern shooter should have multi-player but if it does it should be at least decent and DOOM's multiplayer wasn't in my opinion) and someDOOM was a very solid return for the franchise but the game in its core feels very retro and like the originals, as a modern shooter DOOM lacks some very important elements like a intriguing story, variety, decent multiplayer experience (i'm not saying modern shooter should have multi-player but if it does it should be at least decent and DOOM's multiplayer wasn't in my opinion) and some other things but this game can be a delicious fps ride for old-fashioned fps gamers like me, so in many ways DOOM doesn't innovate but it certainly catches the eye in certain aspects like music and gameplay.

    DOOM 2016 wasn't perfect but i felt at home while playing it. It successfully turned the 90's doom gameplay into a fast-paced action packed modern first-person shooter that definitely left a big mark in the industry. i'm so excited for Eternal.

    I don't really know if i can reccomend DOOM 2016 or not. Overally, i can say this: if you are a fan of action games, than it is totally reccomended for you. Of not - it is a skippable game. Personally i say "no" to this game, especially when DOOM: ETERNAL exists

If you are 12 sure go ahead, but if you played Doom(1993), Unreal, Quake, Duke Nukem or any FPS that came out in that era you will see how **** this game is.

    It even has cutscenes :))

    Gameplay: Pure shovelware garbage - I'm really sorry for anyone that thinks the gameplay of this game is good, I really am.

    Level Design: Rushed, uninspired, tedious - Doom(1993) has better level design than this

    Graphics: You know what? If you like good graphics and don't care about gameplay, buy this game!

    Sound: The sound is really dull, there is too much **** in your headphones when playing this, all you need is music(metal), gun sounds and enemy sounds. The soundtrack to this is pretentious metal, I dont give a f*** who wrote the music, I don't give a f*** what his artist rating is, the soundtrack is boring and annoying.

    Bottom line: pretentious shooter, abusing the name of DOOM, reviewers were paid and the kids love it because they don't know any better. I'm only 18 if you are wondering, you dont have to be a "boomer" to know good games from bad games :)

    DOOM is a classic and for fans of FPS games I would say duty. I played old parts and I consider them great games. I'm talking about one and two now.

I'm talking about one and two now. Then came the three, which caused disappointment in many people, but someone liked it and took it as the best part of the series. I've never played DOOM 3, so I can't say anything about it. There was a silence for a long time, until one day we experienced a hellish return, literally. DOOM is back. No number. No subtitle. Just DOOM. The unadulterated return triggered a positive evaluation in a lot of fans, so I did DOOM, more precisely, to be clear DOOM 2016 had to try as well. Ladies and gentlemen, it was something great. In recent years, perhaps the best return of the series we have ever experienced. The action is great, although it could have been even faster, I thought. Luxury weapons and the graphics ... they were unreal. In addition to all this, a soundtrack by Mick Gordon himself plays into our ears, so the guarantee is guaranteed. The story is here, but quite a bit, for which I am only happy, because DOOM was at least always about the event for me and I never told the story. In addition, there is a smaller minus of the game, because I personally do not think that the story is too good and is mainly predictable. That's my opinion on the story, but as I said, it doesn't play a big role here. I would move on to levels that are great because they take place on Mars, although we will gradually get to hell itself in the game. Our main Doomguy can also improve his weapons here as the game progresses, which just improves the action in the final. I would also like to mention the bosses who were also a luxury. So if you are a fan of the DOOM series, I would not hesitate and take the game. But I would also recommend it to FPS players, because in recent years it is one of the best first-person titles we have received. Expand

    The game is an 8/10. The gunplay is too simple and non intensive to trigger flow readily. The weapons are not conducive to enjoyable tracking of targets.

    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.

    IF YOU DON'T PLAY THIS, YOU MISS OUT!!!

    Trilha sonora é puro Metal pesado, junto com um som grave em todo o jogo, um dos melhores audios que já vi.

    Contras: modo multiplayer nem cheguei a jogar por causa da falta jogadores nas salas.

    Como o primeiro doom que eu joguei, me deixou bem satisfeito. As armas e a movimentação são bem leves e tem uma boa diversidade de demônios para você enfrentar. Confesso que não me interessei muito na história, me pareceu algo secundário, mas ela é bem desenvolvida através de diálogos e mensagens gravadas que você encontra no mapa. É uma ótima terapia amassar alguns demônios kkk, bom jogo.
