    Fun game, recommended to players with prior fast paced FPS experience. Average around 15 hours.

    After putting in a hundred hours into the game I think I its safe to say that I think the game is a masterpiece and easily the best fps I have ever played it demands so much more of the player rather than playing mindlessly.

    I've been playing this game on and off since release, starting over whenever i did. However i finally finished the game.

    Ótimo jogo. Eu amo como a tradição é opcional, mas ainda existe para aqueles que gostam, ao contrário do último DOOM. A jogabilidade é super divertida e rápida.

    This game is hard even on easy setting. The developers were having a good time creating a game that can stress people up deliberately. They know its hard that's why they give u a sentinel armor option if u die more than 3x in a fight.. pretty insulting. Not all players play to become a mass murderer. Some just play for fun and to appreciate lovely graphic art in a game.

    Amazing experience if you would like new gameplay loop. Killing hordes of demons was never this fun and challenging at the same time.

    Literally amazing. movement is spectacular, incredibly well implemented, had more of a story that Doom 2016, and the gunplay felt amazing i had so much fun playing.

    One of the best shooters I've ever played. Game play variety is beautiful, every enemy has choreographed attacks, unique abilities, making the battles feel like a chess game as you dance around the map fighting demons. The music is top notch and some of the most dynamic, god-complex inducing tracks I've ever heard in a game.

    Campaign has so much replayability and the feeling you get after beating some difficult encounters is gratifying. Fantastic game.

    DOOM Eternal is hands down not only the best shooter of 2020 but probably the best shooter we've seen since Bethesda's revival of the DOOM series back in 2016. The gameplay is faster and more graphic than ever with new weapons and creative ways to get around the maps both when it comes to exploration and combat.

    I've done 2 playthrough's of the game, and I can confidently say it is a masterpiece. The gameplay loop is extremely fun and killing demons never felt better. The game is a lot more difficult than the previous game in the series. The story is heavily improved and the many missions you go on all have detailed surroundings.

    Loved the first one so much I had to buy Doom Eternal. At times the story would lose me and some of the new game mechanics took some getting used to but overall it was a nice play through and would recommend it to anyone that wants a good run and gun.

    Likes : Simply AMAZING graphics - best ever for a Doom game. The shooter experience too is fast & great.

    Dislikes: Would have liked the demons to look a bit larger in size on the screen.

    This game possibly has the smoothest action gameplay ever. The story really fun and offers a lot of extra lore to read through, if you like that kind of stuff.

    This game was everything I wanted from a sequel of DOOM 2016. More demons, more guns and more awesomeness. I loved the new mechanics and new features (demons, guns, better puzzles etc...) and the music is cherry on top. I do have very few minor issues but none that took away from the overall experience. This is a hell of a game!

    I am a terrible shooter player, and even besides that, this gave me the full experience of smashing and shooting. Very gory. Very stressful. Believe whatever you read about this game :) especially about the soundtrack and combat being good.

    Pros:
    - The soundtrack is phenomenal
    - The movement and combat is fluid, more so than any other recent game that I can think of
    - The art design is just spot on
    Cons:
    - The story isn't the best, it's not bad, but it doesn't achieve the same level of quality as the other parts that make up the game

    I really do recommend this game to anyone who hasn't bought it yet, very fun game that can be played many ways, only problem is there isn't much to do after you do the campaign, besides pvp or modded levels. I love this game but it is hard to replay for me since it requires so much time skill, its not very good at being a game you can play every once and awhile, it requires constant attention.

    This game is fantastic. The only problem is that every other first person shooter now is underwhelming because they're not doom eternal. The combat is the central focus and it is better than anything else in the genre. The platforming sections are also pretty good (and a big step up from doom 2016). The story is also pretty good and not so plentiful as to get in the way. The graphics areThis game is fantastic.

Ich mag sogar die Tatsache, dass Sie keine speziellen Tastaturkürzel für das Fragment und die Eisbombe haben, was ein zusätzliches Level erfordert, wenn Sie einen großen Kerl zum Teufel spammen wollen.

    The best of Doom Eternal is when you're double-jumping over a dozen demons, shooting grenades and mini-rockets and trying to keep track of all the projectiles coming your way plus where you can go in a sprawling 3D environment filled with gaps, bridges, springboards and the like. You can get to a point where you don't think, just KILL, and it feels incredibly thrilling. What keeps thisThe best of Doom Eternal is when you're double-jumping over a dozen demons, shooting grenades and mini-rockets and trying to keep track of all the projectiles coming your way plus where you can go in a sprawling 3D environment filled with gaps, bridges, springboards and the like. You can get to a point where you don't think, just KILL, and it feels incredibly thrilling. What keeps this game from being an absolute masterpiece is when things don't click like that, and you're instead just left frustrated and unfulfilled.

    The game's essentially about two things: exploration and combat, with combat obviously being the most important of the two. On that aspect Doom eternal does a pretty good job of things, mixing a respectable variety of enemies and giving each a specific strategy to fight. Throughout the entire game you're constantly increasing and improving your arsenal and the feeling of becoming better at destroying demons is definitely there. That being said, some weapons still feel weak and uneventful, so much so that I find myself literally never using them (I'm looking at you, rocket launcher); can't say I'm a huge fan of the flame belch either, again because it feels like such a weak and unassuming move, something I only use out of a feeling of obligation. The solidity of the demons is also understandable, but it feels a little unbalanced too. The slayer might not be the biggest guy in the world, but he should be at the very least capable of pushing aside the basic zombie enemies. Instead, it's ease for demons to basically lock you in place by surrounding you until you're completely disoriented with the flashing lights and explosions, though, in the game's defense, maybe I'm at fault for not keeping better track of my surroundings. Also, it's hilariously evil that the BFG is just assigned as a regular weapon in your rotation that you can pull by accident with your mouse-wheel and once you've clicked it you're committed to the shot even though the ammunition for it is so limited it's basically a special ability like the laser sword.

    Traversal is about as good as it can be, considering the fact that it's a 1st person shooter, but here's the thing: you've given me so many navigational moves that I can basically cover the entire zone without touching the ground once, and there's fifteen different secrets, including potential weapon upgrades, scattered throughout the level. Of course I'm gonna check every goddamn corner! And that's why it's upsetting when you hit random invisible walls, or ledges you can't actually stand on because the game doesn't recognize them as floors. Furthermore, every level has different stages or sub-zones without clear identification for where they start and where they end. You can rarely tell if you're just advancing to the next room or if you're gonna cross a threshold and suddenly there's a cutscene and the path back is now blocked or worse, the level's over. If it's the later, then you've now missed all those collectibles you still wanted to try and reach, and you either need to start the level again or use the fast travel mechanic, which just isn't all that fun.

    At the end of the day, my complaints about the game are all like this, just little annoyances here and there that keep me from enjoying the game as much as I could. I'd still recommend it to anyone who's into FPSs, and my 8 score is closer to a 9 than a 7, no doubt.    … Expand

    No me gustan los juegos de disparos de estilo arcade en los que simplemente atraviesas (o aplastas y aplasta en este caso) hordas de enemigos con relativa facilidad.
