    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.

    A culmination of the franchise combining a more intricate story ala Doom 3 and the fast paced action game play of the original. Throw in a decent and varied multiplayer experience and you have an awesome package for fans of the series and newcomers alike.

    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.

    What a bitter disappointment. I deleted the damned game half way through. ID claims they went back to the Doom roots. Bah! I played the original Doom 23 years ago and replayed it years later. Lousy graphics but a great game, for a mindless shooter. Way back I thought Serious Sam was mindless fun. But 23 years later I grew up.

I played the original Doom 23 years ago and replayed it years later. Lousy graphics but a great game, for a mindless shooter. Way back I thought Serious Sam was mindless fun. But 23 years later I grew up. This game is a pile of dreck, a waste of time and money. Al you do is run and gun, with a lot of tedious annoying jumping unto and off of platforms.

    The save system absolutely sucks with checkpoints instead of quick saves and reloads and hard saves, This can be very exasperating when you are engaged in a difficult part requiring perfect jumps and numerous enemies with distant checkpoints forcing you waaaay back to the previous checkpoint and starting all over. That was the final straw that caused me to joyfully dump this turkey into the trash can.

    I loved Doom 3, Resurrection of Evil and Doom BFG. Very nice combinations of horror and FPS. ID should have stuck to that and improved on it but no, they came up with this borefest. Along with that stupid game, Rage, Doom 2016 will be another game I will never bother to play again. At least I finished Rage.    … Expand

    Mostly a good game. It was a bit tedious and repetitive toward the end. Heaps of enemies appear and then you have to kill said enemies over and over again with increasing difficulty. It felt a bit like multiplayer in single player . Some of the weapon upgrades seemed pointless but there was good enemy diversity. implementation of Vulcan was very good and boosted performance significantly.Mostly a good game.

    For what it tries to be, it is that perfectly. Very long single player campaign with fantastic art design. A lot of polish went into this. Controls responsive, Weapons feel very satisfying. Music score is a bit adolescent and could have done with some subtlety. Perfect collision detection. If you don't come expecting a cerebral, but rather a visceral, experience, you won't be disappointed.

    Awesome old school style shooter with fantastic graphics and sick animations. Decent amount of replayability on harder levels. Only slight downside is one level with a bit too much platformey stuff. Besides that this game rocks! If you're an FPS fan, just buy it!

    One of my favorite games of 2016. This game is spectacular. Fast-paced, brutal, gory, and it pays great homage to the original DOOM. Simply outstanding. The multiplayer might not be great, as it tries to combine the old DOOM's style with newer multiplayer elements and fails, but the single player is one of the most satisfying and fun experiences I've had in a long time.

    Fun game. Blow stuff up, it goes splat.

    I purchased Doom 6 months after release date, but it's still buggy. The game slows down to a crawl every 30 minutes or so. Deaths and map changes seem to cause it. I must exit game and reload to continue.

    6 for the glitches; otherwise 7 or 8.

Не знаю, что бы я говорил, поиграв я в Uncharted 4, но учитывая, что этого я не делал, игрой года для меня станет именно DOOM! 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.    … Expand

    So basicaly this game is all kill, kill, kill. Game guides you through your playthrough with green lights on every single door, whole map design is based on guiding the player to the final goal. Every map is the same.
    It's a good game for a 1h play, not more that that.

    So if you like old-school shooters and don't mind paying what it costs for 12-15hour SP campaign alone (don't put hopes into MP, really) - you must play this game. SP campaign is absolute blast. From the very fist moment I picked it up - I was caught up in nostalgia, because they don't make such games anymore - it's just COD, COD spam every year.. The gameplay is what you would expect from DOOM - it just feels good to slay the demons. The weapon assortment is great and BFG is damn awesome and level design is excelent with many secrets to discover. The game runs just great, I hit over 100fps on everything maxed out on mid-range gpu RX470 in 1080p.

    What's bad about DOOM? Well not much to be honest, if you imagine there is no MP, the only downsides are a bit clunky to read map (on levels with multiple vertical layers) and a bit uninspired weapons and armor upgrade systems.

    If you are looking for old-school FPS fun - this is must buy game.    … Expand

    Its fun for the first 2-3 hours, and I liked the graphics, music and the boss battles, but later on it becomes quite repetitive having to fight the same enemy tipes all over again without any plot to speak of or puzzle elements to keep you interested.

    This is like Doom meets Quake meets Painkiller with nice graphics. If you like fast paced challenging old school shooters, this is as close as it gets nowadays. You won't find any "realism" (reloading, iron sights) nor any "modern" mechanics (artificial cover, regenerating health, press X to pay respects) here. There is also no meaningful story and no cliche cut-scenes every 5 steps.

    When I heard they were remaking Doom I thought it was a big mistake. The last ones where just OK. Barely. So I had no interest in a new one. I was so wrong. The game is a love letter to old school shooters, beautiful, technically impeccable, and so much fun to play. Well worth the money.

    Now, it does have some downsides.
    - Maps enviroment are a bit confusing, sometimes it's hard to disitnguish which room are you on.
    - Glory kills are fun to see the first time, they they only get annoying and take away from the combat itself.
    - Checkpoint saving is a TERRIBLE idea and an horrible trend. We should be able to save whenever we want to.
    - The map is kinda confused, and, worst of all it resets every time you close it, forcing you to zoom and reposition it as you need.
    - denuvo is horrible.
    - It's only on steam.

    EDIT: since my save file have been corrupted while I was almost at the end, and since it is A WELL KNOWN BUG, I decided to remove 3 points from my verdict.    … Expand

Technically the game reaches an extreme level of perfection in graphics and sound. The id Tech engine had really a lot of trouble with graphic card drivers in Rage and the new Wolfenstein.
