    This is exactly what Doom is. The Campaign and Multiplayer modes are perfect. If you have fallen in love with previous incarnations of this franchise, you will not be disappointed with this newest addition.

    CONs: Gameplay, music

    long story short: I enjoyed the beginning few hours of this game on medium difficulty with the map and collectibles, fun gameplay and music but the further into the game progression opening up the map every 30 seconds to search for close secrets hinged on the overall gameplay experience.

    I enjoyed the metal music during the arena fights but once in a while the music blared to overpowering levels into my ear during a small skirmish of crap easy enemies and it would not stop blaring until quitting the actual game.

    I experienced a number of glitches, falling through floor, getting stuck into handrails, etc. These glitches grew more and more frustration with the slog of a game this actually is.

    Overall 7/10 for single player content. No desire to retread a second time.

    The story is there if you want it , but it isn't integral to the enjoyment of the game, however it offers enough interest through logs, and dialogue to push you through the game with some purpose. Also the soundtrack is phenomenal, and really gets you pumped to crush a room full of demons.

    The visuals are gorgeous, and the execution animations, are some of the most gruesome I have ever seen. There weren't many performance issues that I noticed throughout my playthrough and the frame rate remained smooth.

    Overall Doom is a satisfying, and refreshing shooter filled with intense, simple but fun combat, gorgeous levels, and a killer soundtrack making this well worth a trip to Hell    … Expand

    Bethesda and ID’s visceral collaboration, Doom throws players into a fast-paced, metal-fueled first-person shooter. With monsters and mayhem in abundance, does Doom offer anything new to the over saturated FPS market, or are fans left with another generic shooter?

    The Good
    The fast paced action of Doom sets it apart from other games in the FPS genre. There is no time to take cover, and if you don’t move, you are guaranteed to die while enemies are around. There is a feeling of urgency and an element of unpredictability with the enemies that is absent from most games of the genre. The game encourages players to utilize its “gore kill” system by having enemies drop health pick-ups from being killed in this manner; this was a feature that could have felt tacked-on, but ultimately becomes a core combat element that can be necessary for those running low on health. The brutality of the weapons and the creativity behind their upgrade/attachments provide players with a level of strategy to handle demonic encounters; players must act quickly when fighting demons as the weapon wheel only slows the action, but does not stop it. Players are challenged with adjusting to any demonic encounter on the fly and this level of non-stop action makes for an enjoyable experience.
    The snapmap game mode deserves high praise not only for its entertainment value, but also its practical applications in teaching coding. Snapmap allows players to create their own playable maps and upload them for others to play themselves. The remarkable aspect behind this game mode is the detail, size, and environmental reactions a player can create within their own map; the level of detail and control that players can put into their own creation makes this game mode a how-to for coding. Were it not for the games Mature rating (17+), Doom would be a highly recommended teaching tool for those students interested in coding.

    The Bad
    While there is a story present within Doom’s campaign mode, it’s less than compelling; portal to hell has been opened, close it. While the story unfolds through collectable dossiers and natural progression, there is little depth or surprises here. It’s not terrible, but it’s not great either. The online multiplayer is more of the same, in that there is little difference between it and every other multiplayer FPS mode on the market. You won’t see anything here that you haven’t seen before.
    The major offender in Doom is repetition; there isn’t much more to this game other than move from one area to the next to clear out enemies. While players are encouraged to explore the surprisingly large maps, the repetitive nature of clearing out hives of demons begins to take its toll, and eventually the gameplay becomes stagnant. The level and creature designs are extremely detailed, but the gameplay never really evolves, despite having more difficult enemies thrown at you as the story progresses. Doom plays all of its cards in the first half; everything from that point on is more of the same.

    Rating
    7.5 – Doom brings freshness to the FPS genre that has been absent for far too long. The old-style health and armor pick-ups create a difficulty many gamers either forgot existed, or had never experienced. Fans of the series will rejoice with the fast-paced blood-bath that is Doom. While the core game becomes repetitive, the inclusion of the snapmap is an innovative game mode that is ripe with potential, and the multiplayer mode at the very least serves its purpose, despite not bringing anything new to the table. Overall, Doom is a non-stop ride through hell and back, and many gamers will be pleased by the series return to form.    … Expand

    Doom is a modern version of an iconic, classic shooter. It's fast paced, has satisfying combat, and above all, it's fun. This is one of the better campaigns in a fps I've played in awhile. While more could have been done with the multiplayer, it's still fun and has a very classic arena shooter feel to it.

    This somehow what you want a Doom game to be in 2016. At the core you are just shooting demons over and over again but it is so well done that it is a blast. Multiplayer is meh. The map creation tool is not something I want to do and playing the user created levels was lame. Otherwise worth the money for the single player experience.

    Pros: Fast, challenging, gorgeous, and laser-focused on what works. Tough combat is satisfying to master. Story is minimal in favor of "Kill demons and shut up", which is absolutely what this style of game needs. Collectables and secrets are abundant if you're into that. Smartly, though, game-altering pick-ups like upgrades to your suit and weapons are easy to find, so it doesn't punish gameplay if you don't feel like collecting. Framerate is buttery-smooth throughout, which is particularly impressive for such beautifully done levels that are also very, very fast. SnapMap is smart and totally unnecessary, but brilliant. Multiplayer is also unnecessary, but fun, although not the main attraction here. The campaign is the star.

    Cons: A little too much backtracking for my tastes. Levels are perhaps a little too big.

    Mindless! Crazy! Fun! The most fun I've had on a console in a long, long time. Graphics are fantastic and the game play is excellent. It's extremely addictive and the glory kills are so much fun. For me, personally, this is my game of the year - I've enjoyed it that much. I haven't delved into the multiplayer side of things just yet, as getting platinum in the singe player has kept me occupied.

    Its not a classic shooter in the vein of the original doom, marathon, quake etc. Its a serious sam style arena shooter and I've seen that done better before, the gunplay is rather lackluster, the weapon upgrades just blur the lines between various weapons in a player's inventory, the story is awful and completely at odds with the overall feel of doom's 1, 2 and 64, the survival horrorIts not a classic shooter in the vein of the original doom, marathon, quake etc. Its a serious sam style arena shooter and I've seen that done better before, the gunplay is rather lackluster, the weapon upgrades just blur the lines between various weapons in a player's inventory, the story is awful and completely at odds with the overall feel of doom's 1, 2 and 64, the survival horror elements have been removed and what made doom guy so relatable as a character was that he was a lone marine struggling for survival against hordes of demons and the odds were against him, people who have either not played or did not put the work in to understand the originals will sometimes say otherwise but vulnerability was an essential trait of the doom guy and was an essential part of the first 2 game's overall feel. That Doom guy while he wielded a powerful arsenal of weapons was still very vulnerable was conveyed not only via slower paced tracks in the games soundtracks but also by the gameplay.

    In all the other Doom games, the Marine had to rely on health packs to heal himself, he was not just a psychopathic Demon killing machine who received fuel health via gruesome genocide(glory kills and gibs). This provided a layer of vulnerability to Doom guy and by extension the player because at the end of the day Doom guy is a pretty blank slated character who the player is meant to project himself onto. When you take away player vulnerability you remove and/or simply an element of strategy(health management) and it messes with the overall feel of the game, its rather hard to make a game scary and make players feel as though they are in danger and need to play methodically and exercise extreme caution when you have a health system that rewards you for murder and its also hard to project yourself onto a character whose only goal in life is to commit genocide against the demons who he hates. When a character is vulnerable and wants nothing more than to survive, accomplish his mission, and get out of the unfamiliar demon infested environment that he is in as soon as possible so he can put the whole thing behind him he's a lot more relate-able than a near-invincible psychopath.

    Combine this with the fact that the level design is not like that of a classic 3D maze shooter and is more like that of painkiller, the over-designed weapons, the fact that secrets are not as opinion as they were in the originals because on higher difficulties many of the upgrades WILL be mandatory, the map system that tells you where "secrets" are thereby undermining the very definition of the word, the overdeisgned and sometimes outright ugly weapons with models that take up too much of the screen, the 12 demon limit, the fact that its DRM(Denuvo) makes modding impossible and that snapmap is a lackluster level editor leaving much to be desired, and finally that the multiplayer is complete and utter garbage and you end up with a game that barely broke even because it didn't capture the essence of what its series was supposed to be about. The game may be called Doom but It clearly isn't, a more appropriate name would be Painkiler 2: Halo in Hell Edition. Its not that its a bad game, so much as it just didn't do what it should have done as a reboot(that is to say bring the games design concepts and the games overall feel into the 21st century) which isn't a surprise.

    I'm against reboots in general because their aim is almost always to use the brand recognition of the game that they are rebooting to sell a game that plays nothing like the original and trashes many if not all of its old design philosophies and concepts for new ones(and those new concepts are often objectively worse). They are for the most part, born of ill intentions and this is a fact that we as gamers should always keep in the forefront of our minds.

    I genuinely think this game deserves a 7 or so out of 10, note that that is an above average score, not one you give to bad games, but because I want to counter the huge internet wide circlejerk that obnoxious fanboys who probably watch black men have sex with their wives on a regular basis some of whom I know rate the game 10/10, I'm going to give it a low score.    … Expand

    Doom is a continuation/reboot of the classic mid-90s shooter of the same name, although at first glance you may mistake it for Rage which was also released by id Software in 2011.

Unlike a lot of games that attempt to modernize releases of the past, Doom stays mostly faithful to the classic style that made the game so popular. You move around the maps extremely quickly, in a motion that isn't so much running as it is gliding. I like to imagine that your character has one of those hoverboard things strapped to his feet and that's what he's rolling around on. Most of the levels are based around key hunting puzzles that you have to solve when you aren't up to your eyeballs in hordes of demons. There are health and armor pickups that you need to hunt down when your health is low rather than simply hiding behind the nearest wall. And the weapons all feel satisfying to use and never need to be reloaded (except for one, which was almost never used for that exact reason).

    Another thing Doom loves is it's upgrades. They come in three main flavors: character upgrades, weapon upgrades, and weapon upgrades for your weapon upgrades. This may sound confusing so I'll clarify: the weapon upgrades add a secondary firing ability to your weapons, while the weapon upgrades for the weapon upgrades further enhance that ability with things like more powerful shots and reduced cooldowns. The character upgrades and weapon upgrades are usually fairly well hidden in the game's large and open maps, meaning that exploration is both encouraged and worth your while. The weapon upgrades for your weapon upgrades on the other hand are given out like they're free samples. You get them for finding secret areas (which often contain the aforementioned weapon/character upgrades), completing in game challenges, or for simply just killing a lot of enemies. Since killing enemies is almost always required before you can proceed to the next area, you will get many of these upgrade tokens without having to sweat about it too much. And if you aren't feeling overpowered enough after all that, the game also places short term powerups in many of the battle zones. These range from very very helpful to very very useless, and I found I was really good at finding them almost immediately after I had finished killing all the enemies in the room.

    If you're playing Doom for the story then you're probably playing it for the wrong reasons, but I'll go ahead and give you the gist anyway. Doom takes place on Mars and in Hell, which looks suspiciously like Mars but with more floating platforms and blood. A group of scientists were looking to solve Mars' energy crisis, and decided the best way to go about this was to use the energy from Hell. Along the way one of the scientists decided to release a bunch of Hell's demons on the promise that she would be taken care of by the demons, because that always works out so well for those people who decide to go that route. The story is mostly played out in the background, with the Doomguy quite obviously not caring about anything that doesn't involve shooting or punching things, and to it's credit the game understands that and allows you to skip past most of it. There are a few moments when the pacing grinds to a halt and you're forced to listen to dialogue, but they're fairly short. The only story you really need to understand is this: 1. You're a badass marine. 2. There are tons of demons with copious amounts of blood, squishy organs, and bones more breakable than a suicide pact between angsty teenage girls, 3. Go nuts.

    Doom fills the void of arcade style shooter better than any game has in recent memory. It turns the mindless violence switch up to 11 from the very beginning and doesn't stop until the end credits. Enjoy killing the unambiguously evil enemies, hunt for all the secrets the game has to offer, and use the brief dialogue intermissions as an excuse to go refill your snack pile.    … Expand

This game is a non-stop action game with brutal takedowns! But I wish I can you use the chainsaw more in the game, but all the different guns are just so satisfying and creative!… Expand

    Doom is incredibly fun and is easily the best first person shooter of the year so far with a great campaign and map maker. However the multiplayer falls flat and unfortunately all future DLC will be focused on it, but the campaign is more than worth the price.

    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.

    Exactly the right amount of old and new, DOOM is an adrenaline rush that borders on overwhelming in the best possible way.

    Doom's shimmering, bombastic combat is as absorbing as it is revelatory. [Aug 2016, p.100]
