    Amazing feel and just the right amount of nostalgia. I really do enjoy the new direction ID has taken and this has to be their best game yet. This game will either supplant or tie my favorite doom game of all time (DOOM II). Also hats off to stadia as the game plays flawlessly (full disclosure I have fiber to the home).

    Doom Eternal truly is a great and enjoyable game. The map design for each section truly is something that ID software and Bethesda put effort into and it shows. Visually, compared to other games it might seem like a downgrade due to the visual aspects of certain items like keycards and weapons due to them being highlighted in a neon shading and floating which gives it a old styleDoom Eternal truly is a great and enjoyable game.

Visually, compared to other games it might seem like a downgrade due to the visual aspects of certain items like keycards and weapons due to them being highlighted in a neon shading and floating which gives it a old style arcade feeling, which compared to its predecessor that had weapons and keycards attaches to a body or on the floor. There really isn’t a problem with this because it isn’t trying to stick to the immersion that most FPS games try to implement. Doom Eternal is a video game that isn’t trying to pretend it’s some realistic-soon-to-be event. The gameplay mechanics have been better refined and tweak compared to Doom 2016 and challenge has been added as well. The you will often be given simple puzzles, but the challenge comes from the scarcity of ammunition and who to use it on. The fun in the game comes from the challenge and learning to know when to use what really shows the intensity of what the game can provide for a player. The multiplayer is okay Expand

    Don’t listen to the red reviews because nearly every single one of them either didn’t understand the way the game was meant to be played and complained about problems that have VERY simple solutions (There’s ammo ALL over the place on top of the ammo you can get from chainsaws. If you run out, that’s your fault. Really difficult to do) or just silly little complaints. If you liked DoomDon’t listen to the red reviews because nearly every single one of them either didn’t understand the way the game was meant to be played and complained about problems that have VERY simple solutions (There’s ammo ALL over the place on top of the ammo you can get from chainsaws.

It’s more of the same with added content. “BUT I DONT LIKE THE CUTSCENES”

    You can skip every single one, plus it’s DOOM, so you won’t hate yourself for skipping anything

    “BUT THE PLATFORMING”

    This one gets down to matter of opinion more than anything, but for the most part, it works well enough, is pretty simple, and they don’t take over the game as a whole. I don’t know what that guy was talking about with this being like a Mario game. It’s not like the entire game is just jumping. Hell, one dude complained about how there was too much jumping, then complained about the purple goo (to be fair, I hate that **** too) the next paragraph, just to say “To me, Doom is about Mobility” It seems like a lot of people just weren’t sure of what they wanted out of this game and got something different, and that’s what this game is. I can’t think of another FPS game that plays like Eternal does. It’s an insane power fantasy of a game that I’m gonna find myself going back to over the years. Give the game a shot with an open mind, and you’re practically guaranteed to love it. Doom Eternal is fantastic.

    Fantastic game faster more fluid combat compared to 2016 and better level design.

    Awesome game improved on 2016 in almost every aspect from combat, movement, enemy and level design. Some of the bad reviews are extremely misleading. Low ammo is not much of a problem in this game if you switch your weapons, don't spam ammo like a moron and accurately target the weak points of the demons.

The complaints of platforming is also weird considering the game sparingly uses it and is simply expanded on 2016 platforming levels. Expand

    Enfin un doom qui reprend l'essence même de la licence ! c'est nerveux, chaud, et ça fait plaisir !

    Fantastic. Might be the best port on platform right now. Action, violence, blood, flying guts, severed limbs... All this greatness in tune with heavy metal! I don't even like Heavy metal, but oh boy... It fits it perfectly.

    Intense action where every battle is also a bit of a puzzle? Doom Eternal is great, absolutely. It's faster better and harder than Doom 2016. It is also lot more difficult. I consider myself good at shooters, but this one is devilishly hard and I have no idea how anyone could beat this at nightmare or even the 2nd highest difficulty. The new enemies are interesting, the Marauder though ...Intense action where every battle is also a bit of a puzzle? Doom Eternal is great, absolutely. It's faster better and harder than Doom 2016.

    Great tight gameplay. You gotta learn what the game wants to teach you. After you learn all that, you'll be amazed at the stuff you can pull off.

    Doom Eternal and The Ancient Gods might be the best single player FPS I've ever played. It is a cross between classic Quake/Quake 3 deathmatch and Bayonetta/Devil May Cry.

    This is the best FPS I have ever played. After playing this everything else feels slow, frustrating, and not adrenaline pounding enough. I would recommend this game to anyone. This is absolutely my favorite game. ID out did themselves.

    If you like 'classic' FPS's, this is one of the best modern recreations of the feel and energy of those games while taking advantage of modern styles and technology.

    Fantastic game. A little disappointed there isn't an achievement for completing campaign on a harder difficulty. Guess I wasted some time and frustration on a higher difficulty that didn't have a payoff. Oh well.

    One of the best game I have ever played. The combat is skill based and satisfying, and the flow of the combat is incredibly good. DOOM Eternal is a refreshing break from all the modern fps games that are all just more of the same. The music is fantastic and easily the best of any game I've ever played. I would recommend DOOM Eternal to anyone who plays video games, and even some people that don't.

    I am really impressed by how good this game is. It is worth of all the praised its received, and they have a killer formula to move forward with. The battles are intense and exciting; I was constantly on the edge of my seat. Even better than Doom 2016, which I thought was great at the time.

    The best shooter I've played. Ever. While Doom (2016) made you feel unstoppable, Eternal made you work for it. Mastering Eternal is an experience like no other. The level design is fantastic, the gunplay is even better, and the new challenges you get make it all the more satisfying when you beat the final boss.

    The difficulty is much higher in this game, as you have much less ammo,

    The difficulty is much higher in this game, as you have much less ammo, enemies hit you like a truck, and there are a lot of new enemies to keep track of. If you're new to Doom/Shooters in general, I recommend setting the difficulty on Hurt Me Plenty. (I beat it on Nightmare on my first playthrough cuz I'm just that good)

    The Movement is a gift from god. You got double jump instantly, dashes, climbing, swinging on monke bars, the Meat-Hook, ect. It feels so good to zip through the map while blasting demons to dust.

    The only thing I can criticize is that the final boss's first phase is kinda annoying, and that's about it. The game reviews who said this game wasn't as good as 2016 just didn't care enough to try and get better. This is one of the best games I've ever played, and will continue playing in the future. There is so much to this game that makes it great that I haven't even talked about. Just get the game

    It may not reach the sublime heights of its predecessor, but Doom Eternal is bursting at the seams with hellacious action.

    When everything works, DOOM Eternal on Stadia works like in the rest of platforms. That is something that depends, mostly, of your ISP connection. During our test we didn't experienced input lag or video artifact, and even if it isn't native 4K, it moves like a charm. Mice and keyboard control (as is with the pad) also responds without problems.
