    Goodness gracious ,this gets you adrenalina faster than skydiving.
    Call of duty has always been boring for me because its slow and its not actually fun.
    Then ID software tienes everything upside down with Doom 2016 and now they've made It faster ,more gore and just better
    Im not giving It a 10 for the f*cking archvile.

    It's a good game that builds on Doom 2016. Nice graphics and smooth gameplay. For me, it's too complicated, contains unnecessary systems, and the gameplay is all about cooldowns for armor, health, etc... Also, the jumping puzzles are bad and don't belong in a fast-paced shooter game like this.

    Level design sucks. They took features out of the previous game because too many people were playing "wrong".

    Seriously, watch interviews with the developers. They made massive changes to the game because gamers were playing "wrong". In doom 2016, you could play how you wanted. In doom eternal, you can either play how the developers want, or you can quit. I'm a dad of 4. I want to play

    Doom Eternal has come to be my favorite FPS in a long time. From it's beautiful visuals to it's flexible gunplay, Doom Eternal is a must-have. The story in this one is completely different than it's previous entry, tasking you to save the world (once again) from a demon invasion being run by the "Khan Mayker", who sent demons to invade earth to save their own planet.

Of course being the Doomslayer makes it much easier, but it only gets harder from there. The learning curve here is a big toughie with all the amazing new abilities added to this game. You can now dash air dash, climb on rugged walls, and much more. Once you master all these new powers at your disposal, you'll be cleaning out areas of demons in no time! I really enjoyed playing through what might be the last entry to DOOM's reboot series, and I recommend it to anyone looking for a new FPS to play. Expand

    My flaw with the game remains similar to the last, with the lack of variety (pew-pewing) but this time, the platforming is way better, with the ability to instantly try again, and climbing is way more intuitive, and actually, everything is just way more intuitive.

    Exploration still feels like a little bit of a drag, as there aren't any puzzles or anything cool to explore in the first place, but I will say, the upgrade system is way better along with the tone of the game being better than the last.

    Overall, the game is great, I highly recommend it and I'd rather play this game than the first one, any day of the week.

    Overall a very fun game, but there are many things about it I dislike. I appreciate that they leaned into the RPG elements with story and variety of character upgrades while maintaining the high level of action of its predecessor.

    This is going to sound counter-intuitive, but there are too many weapons, power-ups, and special abilities in Doom Eternal. All the weapons, and weapon modes, and grenades, flame belcher, chainsaw, crucible sword, blood punch and when best to use them is annoyingly complex. I love the original Doom for the simplicity of blowing up things without thinking too hard about it.

    There's a lot of cut-rate RPG lore added here that expands upon the history and various factions in the world of Doom, and it's very unwelcome. It's some cheesy paint-by-numbers world-building that reminds me of Diablo's story, and it's unnecessary and just drags the gameplay in Doom. Again, I don't need to know why I'm blowing up demons. Why are they making this needlessly complicated.

    There's also some light puzzle-solving of the Uncharted/Tomb Raider variety added in that I have mixed feelings about. It seems out of place for the franchise.

    This version of Doom is too much of a lot of things that make the game lose focus. Less would have been more.

    - You'll want more.

    Bottom line:
    Doom 2016 was a fantastic reboot of the series and it made it seem it'd be hard if not impossible to top but Doom Eternal is the best sequel to a video game I can think of. It takes everything that worked with the original games and the reboot and enhances it. It does have some platforming sections which are pretty good ways to break up the action and it wasn't what I was expecting but it works well and creates a nice balance the pacing is fantastic and the level design even felt better than what was in the first one.

    If you liked the first one, you'll probably love this and if you have game pass it's on there, so give it a shot even if this isn't usually your type of game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don't give out 10/10's often, but this takes it away. The story does not exist, because it is a doom game. The game is about shooting and killing demons over a rabbit, so you shouldn't expect a final fantasy / kingdom hearts level of story. The first level starts off with an introduction on the game and basic mechanics. The chainsaw is introduced this level, which is a crucial part of the game to get you out of situations and get ammo. They also encourage the use of many guns by nerfing the good ones and buffing the bad. The Unmaykr, a special weapon is unlocked from getting good with all the mechanics and completing the optional challenges. There is less ammo storage, but easier ammo to get excluding the BFG-9000 and the Unmaykr. Moving on past the optional content, and the "story" missions get longer to test your skill. The multiplayer is okay, and better after the rework. The DLC post launch was amazing, and shows your mastery of the game. The crucible was a fun weapon, but the sentinal hammer is better. Amazing bosses. and then new weapons and mechanics for all the levels but the last 5 are amazing and makes the challenge of the game rewarding. Overall, 10/10 and I highly recommend it for anyone in their teen years or older. Expand

The app shows me that 16.28 % of players have completed the game. You are giving positive reviews even though you have not played through the game. Why do you do that?

    I will now write what I think of this game because I have completed it.

    This is one of the most poorly designed games I've ever played. I went to YouTube to see how to solve some levels because the game didn't give any hints. It turned out that even when I watched how to go through a level on YouTube, the game has changed over time so that the YouTube video was not helping at all. I had to look for a newer video. In addition, I was constantly out of ammo and health, it is flashing on the center of my screen. There´s also different icons in the middle of the screen, which you can't really keep track of because something is going on all the time. Who puts these icons and texts in the middle of the screen?

    Glory kills positions you according to your enemy's position, not according to your player's location. This is a very big change compared to Doom 2016, because you are still in the same position when you leave from Glory Kill animation in Doom 2016. In this game, however, when you come out of the Glory Kill animation, you have no idea which direction you were heading to, and you have to start thinking about what you're doing now.

    All your opponents will attack you at once and at worst scenarios push you into a corner so that it is very difficult to get out. This is also a very big change compared to Doom 2016. In this game you have to be on the move all the time and look around, look for health and ammunition, because otherwise you will die.

    A few words about the story. The story is strange and isn't exciting at all. The game creator could have come up with a more exciting story.

    What is story behind green floating things in the air? Green floating weapons, green floating question marks, etc. Everything that floats is green. Mind blowing!

    When comparing Doom 2016 and Doom Eternal, the Doom Eternal really does look more cartoony overall, especially with those Mario fireball obstacles. Doom 2016 was a realistic reboot while Doom Eternal feels like a modern-day adaptation of the 90s games.

    мав дуже заниженні очікування щодо продовження DOOM 2016 але вони не оправдались - хоч гру й набили контентом більше нікуди, вставили яскраві анімації вбивств та збору припасів але все ж гру витягнули продумані механіки, не скучні боси та довол цікаві арени з головломками. один бал забираю за платформінг - той хто це придумав має в пеклі скакати по платформах 1000 років!
    в цілому - хороше

    Didn't think they could make a better DOOM than DOOM 2016 but I was wrong. Rip and tear until it is done.

    Disappointed with this game after Doom (2016) - this game is notably worse in almost every way. Balance is way off, heavy focus on weak points destroys the flow, story is really awkward and uncompelling (not to mention incompatible with the first game), music is mediocre

    This game has some of the most interesting gunplay that I have experienced in any game. I found that every time that I picked up a weapon, I was excited to use it and get a feel for how it fires.

I also believe towards the end the ammo economy gets a little sparse, but nothing overkill. The graphics are sleek, and it overall runs well on an Xbox one s. It has an arcade like feel at times, but overall the tone is pretty gritty in a fun way. Overall a great game! Expand

    Before we must clarify that Doom Eternal is a game for adults, They have added more things that makes Doom eternal better than Doom 2016, Comparated with Doom 2016 Doom eternal has added more things that mades the game more fast and some things from Doom 2016 that were only for make damage now in Doom eternal are necesarry for example: The chainsaw needs to be used if you need more ammoBefore we must clarify that Doom Eternal is a game for adults, They have added more things that makes Doom eternal better than Doom 2016, Comparated with Doom 2016 Doom eternal has added more things that mades the game more fast and some things from Doom 2016 that were only for make damage now in Doom eternal are necesarry for example: The chainsaw needs to be used if you need more ammo and the fuel of the chainsaw recharges automaticly but you can accelerate the process if you get a can of fuel, The flamethrower now if you kill a group of enemies with that they drop armour, And if you kill an enemy when it is blinking in blue and orange it drops life, So this weapons and kills are now very necessaries, They have upload a system of exploration in wich you can get secrets and lore parts in each level so it mades more enjoyable the gameplay, The music is awesome, So i recommend this game, this is the opinion of a normal costumer .

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I bought this from game pass about 8-10 months ago, and it’s damn near flawless, I could play this for hours, and if I was able to play ancient gods 1 and 2 without spending about 15€, I would, the only problem I have, is with the story, now I know Doom games are meant to be gameplay and fun value focused, but even DOOM 2016 still had pretty good storytelling, but this, I just felt confused, I just didn’t know what the hell was happening, all I knew is that I had to kill, and the way you can play this game, is just shoot the everloving **** out of everything that looks like it’ll hurt you, but you also have to chainsaw, and the strategy of this game, people call it **** but I call it big brained, because they literally made the game harder not just because: **** the customer!” But because they want you to use your brain which is a bit of a first for Doom, because before it was just: “SUPER SHOTGUN AND PUNCH PEOPLE, ****ING KILL THEM, THE WALLS ARE MELTING, MY LUNGS A-WHEEZIN’ MY HEARTS A-SEIZIN, I CAN HEAR SATAN SHOUTING NO, WHAT IS EVEN HAPPENING?!” But now it’s: “chaingun, super shotgun, ballista, then super shotgun again on the people with a lot of health” I’m glad they did this. I’m REALLY glad they did this. Expand

    It took quite a while to get into this game, mostly because the easiest difficulty is still ridiculous. I really do wish that game developers would understand that some people don't like to get frustrated by dying over and over. In some circumstances it does provide “Sentinel Armor” if you die in specific places, but THAT should have been your easy
    2/6/21-6/8/21 100% Main Story 5/10

    It took quite a while to get into this game, mostly because the easiest difficulty is still ridiculous. I really do wish that game developers would understand that some people don't like to get frustrated by dying over and over. In some circumstances it does provide “Sentinel Armor” if you die in specific places, but THAT should have been your easy mode.

    You play as a mute (mostly) super duper soldier that steam rolls over anything in his path. For some reason he has to save earth (even though the place is trashed worse than New Orleans the day after Mardi Gras). There is a group of alien/robot priests trying to cramp his style so he's got to straighten them out first. More story than I expected, but it's still basically going from arena to arena surviving demon hordes.

    I kept putting this game down in the early levels, only to pick it up again weeks later. Then I'd come across two Mancubus' and feel like I was shooting harsh words for all the damage I was doing. Eventually, you get a few better weapons (Super Shotgun is pretty neat.) At that point it finally becomes a bit more bearable. The infinite frag grenade and ice grenade deserve a mention, as the upgrades really made those helpful tools.

    There are a few issues that I had with the guns that I realize are more mechanics than flaws. Like weapons sharing ammo. Usually one weapon outshines the other, which results in sticking to the three or four weapons that actually do any damage. Also, it really took away from the crazy super weapons toward the end of the game that they were such limited use with rare ammo. I wound up not using them at all because I was always saving them for what might be around the corner.

    As far as graphics and sound the game deserves a lot of the praise it gets. The sound track was great and the look and sounds of all the guns makes them feel powerful (even when they are not). There were many times that I had to stop and appreciate the landscape or a giant demon walking through the background. Those parts were outstanding.

    I get that the game is supposed to be like “combat chess” and that is a really neat idea- that every enemy has a weakness that can be exploited but the come at you so fast that you have to keep moving and think very quickly. It just seems like (on easy mode, at least) exploiting a weakness shouldn't still take an entire weapons ammo stock to kill the demon that can destroy you in three hits. There are a lot of enemy types that tip the scale from challenging to frustrating very quickly.

    Lastly, the platforming. It's not that it doesn't belong in this type of game (it doesn't) but that it is clearly designed to be frustrating and slow you down in an otherwise very fast paced game. It really seems like a failed experiment and you will be cursing whoever thought of it.

    Once you get the hang of the game it does make you feel very skilled and the levels do become pretty cool as they progress. It's a bit light on story, but the only thing really holding it back from being a great game was the frustrating difficulty.

    The campaign it comes with is good in its own right, however, i would not suggest you buy full price if your going to only do campaign, as i did. i personally got it in a really good deal with both skyrim and subnautica all for 50 bucks. but aside from that, very good game.

    I have enjoyed all the Doom games, this was no exception. After beating them I always liked using cheats to mess around a bit with. I dislike not being able to use them until after you neat a mish, and Only if you have gathered them previously .

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

    An absolutely spectacular game, and one of the early highlight games of 2020. Doom Eternal will make you think as you kill, pushing your mind to its limits. That’s not a bad thing. It’s the perfect trip to hell.

    Doom Eternal is an outstanding entry in the series marredby a few setbacks. There is a ton of content including one of the best shooter campaigns I have played this generation. The push and pull method of the combat is addictive to master and a blast to play. Everything looks and sounds fantastic and this is a game that makes me smile as a fan since the beginning. While the generation may be coming to an end, Doom Eternal is one of the games that will send it off with a bang.
