Remarkably fun game

Remarkably fun game. I've played all the DOOM games and this one is by far the best (in terms of fun-factor). What I mean by that is the game, at times, does NOT take itself seriously at all. Unlike t… Read more

Doom Eternal demands you to learn its mechanics or die

Doom Eternal initially was a turn off for me, after beating Doom 2016 over and over. Everything is so different... ammo pickups are neon pink and green, guns are floating neon items that you pick up j… Read more

Raw cerebral intensity of Quake married with Doom's enemy roster and its violent, cathartic attitude

It's the raw cerebral intensity of Quake married with Doom's enemy roster and its violent, cathartic attitude. Enjoying this game requires a certain frame of mind, a certain willingness to push yourse… Read more

DOOM Eternal is brutal, ruthless, unmerciful, and unconditionally brilliant.

Hell and Heavens, Demons and Humans, DOOM begs the question: which is more corrupt and wicked? Us or them, Hell or heavens? DOOM Eternal is brutal, ruthless, unmerciful, and unconditionally brilliant.… Read more

Fantastic

What is Doom Eternal? Short answer. Pure unadulterated badass demon slaying action! Long Answer. A well executed spin on the shooter genre, that aims to teach both new comers and veterans a different… Read more

Bosses aside, who's up for another great Doom campaign

[Note: The multiplayer aspect hasn’t interested me nor do I have anyone to play it with, so that’s why it won’t be covered in this review.] For as much as I dislike relying on comparisons, it’s hard f… Read more

Not the hell you were expecting

Become Doom Guy

I think DOOM 2016 is one of the best games of all time. Its campaign is a tight twelve hours of nearly flawless level design, combat encounters, and headbanging music. I think that while DOOM Eternal… Read more

DOOM: Eternal Review

I Ripped and I Teared, and now It is Done

I Ripped and I Teared, and now It is done. Doom Eternal is pretty much what a sequel should be, more of the first game. I am of course referring to the game titled Doom from 2016 as the "first game" w… Read more

Doom is Back!

Another incredibly fun FPS. Fast and tense action. Enemies shed flesh now as you lower their health, environments are spectacular throughout, even breath taking towards later levels. The jump puzzles… Read more

Hell on earth is more frustrating than exciting.

I really liked Doom 2016, so I was excited to see where they were heading after the end of 2016. Doom 2016 ends with Samuel Hayden (with his big laser sword made of argent energy) sending you off some… Read more

Dissapointment, Thy Name Is Eternal

TLDR: Doom Eternal is a poor follow up to Doom 2016, failing in nearly every way to live up to the predecessor, excepting the Slayer Gates which are brilliant, shining beacons in an annoying morass of… Read more

Doom Eternally Tiresome

So I'm pretty close to the end of the game, playing on Ultra-violence and honestly, this game stopped being fun a good while ago. This plays nothing like Doom (2016) and might as well be called anythi… Read more

Rip and Tear Until It Is Done

It was four years ago when id Software released a refreshing take on the well-loved Doom franchise and has been rolling full steam ahead with Doom Eternal ever since then. What the 2016 installment of… Read more
