    Allot of fans have been screaming for years for a new Doom game, and no one was disappointed, the original Dooms were a little before my time, so I missed out, but in the reboot i had a real decent time, the ending was a little lack luster, and the story was bare bones AF, but sometimes you just wanna kill and blow **** up, and this game has you covered.

    Doom is a tale of two very different shooters (and one quirky creation tool). The single-player campaign's reverent worship of the series' roots results in an old-school run-and-gun shooter which feels like imitation Doom, a cover of an old hit which nails all the right power chords but isn't exactly transformative.

SnapMap, meanwhile, is a blend of weird and simple and endearing.… Expand

    Game is pretty. If you tune the sensitivity to be a bit faster, you can play at the pace you're meant to play at. Lots of nice guns. Nice progression system. Story actually gave me some interest behind my killing. Demons got repetitive by the 2nd part of the game. Would just pull out the rocket launcher and chaingun, just so I could be done with it.

    I've played this on PC and PS4. For the PC version, I rated a perfect 10 because the keyboard and mouse are an extension of my mind. Console FPS is just more challenging. Movement is slower; aim assist is necessary. It's still a fantastic game.

    One or two glitch here and there but this aside Doom is the third best game i ever played ! It was the first time i replayed a game after finishing it ! Mortally Challenging, beautiful, fast paced, brutal, feel like a **** god, one of the best lore out there etc... this game is the best FPS since a decade

    I had a load of fun with this game. It's classic DOOM in the sense your only concern is to kill everything that moves. And ripping off a demons jaw is always satisfying. It's not supposed to be deep or thought provoking. It's just an almost constant edge of your seat battle with some great boss fights. If you want a game that's solely designed for intensity and fun. DOOM is worth checking out.

    this game is mostly about gameplay,and then about plot and narrative.I love the DOOM gameplay,and also the soundtrack.Mick Gordon brought to us the most intense and agressive music that perfectly fit to gameplay.And about the plot,it is not bad but it is not perfect,i would say that is standart plot for fps game. 8/10

    Smooth gameplay, knows it's role as an action shooter. The levels are visually pleasing and worth exploring. The rpg elements are fitting.

    Mild complaints: I would personally cut doom guy's running speed by half and the text is way too small. I have an aversion to industry-wide menu screens that are 50% border crap and tiny visuals.

    Plus just enough unlockables to keep the game feeling like it's progressing, aside from the environments switching up a decent amount for what could be a repetitive experience if it wasn't handled properly.
    (Plus a very fitting soundtrack.)

    Literally my only complaint here keeping it from a 10 is that I just didn't feel any need to come back to this game when I was 100% done, despite how much fun I had playing through the main campaign the first time. It's intense-but-shallow fun, done very well. I feel like that was very specifically their aim, and they definitely hit the mark and made a great game by sticking to the point.    … Expand

DOOM cuts the story almost entirely, symbolizing this from one of the very first scenes, in which the protagonist smashes a voice recording, one of the main complaints of Doom 3, telling us right off the bat that this is not what Doom 3 was. This is a true Doom game. No reloading, no stopping to regain health in cover, just pure fun. DOOM capitalizes off of the most primal impulses of the modern public, allowing a sort of outlet to unleash anger built up inside the player, in its exclusive goriness and grit. Blood will spill as you rip and tear your way to the top. The only thing that brings it down for me is the fact that in comparison to DOOM: Eternal, its sequel, DOOM is sluggish, lacking dashing and the meat hook upgrade for the Super Shotgun. In addition, the multiplayer is extremely lackluster and disappointing. Besides these minor issues, however, this is a must-play.… Expand

    The story is weak but who cares, its Doom. The guns are all extremely unique and have their own distinct uses, the demons are all designed extremely well and build on the older models, The level design and scale are great, and the violence is doom-esque. The multiplayer is dead, but who needs that with the super fun story mode. Great release, still holds up on next-gen consoles.

Armed with anA delicate and graceful dance of gore and death. As someone who more often than not gravitates towards stealth missions, turtling, and tactical plays, Doom is not that type of game. Doom wants you to arrive at the end of the level, covered in guts, by sparing naught even a hellish underling. It is a very structured FPS at heart, but not sacrificing fun and personability. Armed with an extensive arsenal of weapons, you choose how you go about eviscerating, dismembering, or exploding demons in your permissive rage-filled steroidal man child tantrum. Choose a constant stream of plasma to eat holes through a Hell Baron, a well-timed rocket launcher blast for a triple kill of Imps, or remove a pesky Mancubus by resorting to chainsaw seppuku. The game is fun from front to back: one constant joy ride of a power trip.

    Gameplay is truly where the game excelled in my opinion. It is just darn fun to shoot. As God of War (2018) mastered the feeling of using the Leviathan axe, I genuinely felt powerful in Doom (2016). Any individual non-boss monster can be dispatched with ease, once the technique and machinery are obtained. The challenge lies in balancing the methods necessary once a single enemy spawns into a murderous multitude. No enemy is a bullet sponge, but thinking straight in a bullet storm is the challenge. In addition, no weapon feels unnecessary once another is unlocked, but each successive gun feels like a ladder rung towards domination and freedom of skill in the arena. A welcome surprise, never have thought I would enjoy not having to reload. Reflexively in the opening moments, I would press square to reload, not used to each weapon being a bottomless clip. While your total ammo reserve will certainly deplete, ammo is never too far off if clever. This streamlining serves to fuel the game to be faster and focus on what is fun, shooting.

    The story did not rank as high for me. It was not as compelling as others, but the characters were oh so cool. I wanted to keep moving forward just to hear another monologue from Samuel Hayden, the game's cybernetic deuteragonist. Doom Slayer is hilarious as well. In a current climate where games, meant to be fun, are forced to play serious roles and convey "meaning," Doom Slayer repeatedly breaks free from the voice telling him what to do. It's a welcome change.

    Great game. 8/10.    … Expand

    The game also runs great, it's incredibly well optimized.

    I'd also like to add that I love the idea of demons being scared of the protagonist, that's a very nice twist on the genre.

    The story is quite bare bones and characters get very little in terms of development, but there is a bit of humour in there to spice things up.

    The arenas can make the game feel a bit less immersive and more "gamey" as well.

    Overall a great time if you like the genre.    … Expand

    The combat is excellent. Such a sigma type of game. Enemy variety and level design is so well crafted. The story the game tries to tell is average but thats not the focus. The visuals are great however they feel the same for the majority of the game.

    The multiplayer and snap map is awesome, gameplay is fun.

    It's a GOOD game! One of the most violently cool games i've played! The combat and the variety of weapons are excellent. The story on the other hand is poor and the game gets kind of reptitive.

    Just finally played this game after getting it for dirt cheap. I'm old enough that I came up on the original Doom games, so it was only natural that I'd eventually get around to playing this one.

    It was a good game, definitely very polished and had enough nods to the classic games to be nostalgic, while also giving you modern graphics and silky-smooth gunplay.

    To me there wasn't much depth to the game. It's kill demons here and kill demons there. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, as some games nowadays are too complicated for their own good. A game like Doom (2016) reminds you that good, mindless action can be just what you're looking for in a video game.

    There was a decent bit of weapon and character modding, but to me the gun mods seemed kind of forced. There was enough variety in the weapons themselves that I think the mods tended to be a little redundant and seemed unnecessary. The addition of a chainsaw was cool, and added some cool moments and animations, but was definitely OP. However, the scarcity of fuel (ammo) prevents you from abusing it.

    After all is said and done, I don't find myself wanting more since beating it. Therefore, I don't see myself playing Doom Eternal, as I'm sure it's more of the same formula.

    Overall, Doom (2016) was an entertaining play-through for me, especially at the bargains prices that this game can be had for in 2022.    … Expand

    The latest incarnation of the legendary FPS is a return to its roots, employing the visuals of Doom 3 in the more arcade shoot 'em up style of the original. The result is partially successful, but because it lacks both the clever tricks and traps of the first game and the survival horror atmosphere of the third instalment I'd rather play either of those than this game.

The result is partially successful, but because it lacks both the clever tricks and traps of the first game and the survival horror atmosphere of the third instalment I'd rather play either of those than this game. It suffers from the familiar feeling of being a multiplayer game at heart rather than a single player campaign; the maps feel like death match arenas linked together rather than a real environment to explore and the pick ups are either dropped by slain enemies or are scattered around like loot. Slightly disappointing as the previous games rank amongst my favourite ever games, but it's a solid enough shoot 'em up that unfortunately fails to reach the heady heights of its predecessors. But not much does, to be fair.… Expand

    Doom honors its legacy while setting the stage for a new era for the long dormant franchise. Intimately gory encounters and a surprising emphasis on story more than make up for the bland multiplayer.
