Doom Eternal

Doom Eternal knocks it out of the park in pretty much every category from a gameplay perspective. Adjectives that describe it: FAST, FLUID, CHALLENGING, SMART, STRATIEGIC.

Every weapon, mod, ability, and piece of equipment is both powerful and purposeful, and FUN! Glory kills replenish health, chainsaw supplies ammo, flame belch adds armour. There are AOE weapons, precision weapons, and strategic weapons that all have their place when battling the game's outstanding enemy variety. All this combines to improve the players skill over the course of the game and stay challenging throughout, with never a dull moment nor difficulty spike.

Eternal's story answers questions left by it's predecessor while telling a pretty good one on its own, all while never taking away from the action. It's epic, well paced, and easy to follow.

The game also includes a creative multiplayer mode that has surprising levels of depth and strategy. Battle Mode has two demons against one slayer and gives players lots of gadgets, tools, and abilities. It's well balanced and can rise to the same level of intensity as single player and even further sometimes! Unfortunately, it seems to be using peer to peer servers which can cause some nasty rubber banding and connection issues. I hope they can smooth these out soon. But when it's working well it's f--king awesome.

This is an easy game of the year contender and cements DOOM as the most ledgendary and iconic FPS franchise ever. 30 years ago it put FPS's on the map, and now it's back on top. Buy it now!!!

Now, normally I only give games with excellent stories a 10/10. However, everything this game sets out to do, it does right. So very right. Anyone who enjoys a fun time will love this game. Also, normally I play on "normal" difficulty in games, but this game is so much more fun to play when it's truly a challenge. I highly recommend to anyone who plays this to push themselves to their fighting limits.

This game for me is a top 5 greatest FPS games ever made. It is so much fun I can't even describe it. It adds more weapons from the previous doom while bring back old ones making the experience still feel fresh. New demons to slaughter some of them being super challenging and boss battles galore, however the bosses are at bit weak compared to the last doom but still fun in its own way. The progression is also perfect, it doesn't make you completely overpowered too soon, the weapons are earned at a steady pace and armor and weapon upgrades are split up well between levels.



The few negatives I can think of are the fact that the mid can get really easy, mainly when you get the super shotgun and its story is weak,but are you really buying a Doom game for its story. Didn't think so.

If you enjoy FPS games this is a must buy and so far a front runner for game of the year.

Start to finish this game is epic, pure blood soaked intensity through and through. An instant action classic. Enough talk..go kill some demons

If this had a competitive Deathmatch game mode for online it would be an easy 10/10. While i appreciate what it's doing and I applaud the developers for trying something new I feel like a Deathmatch mode would be perfect for this game. The competitiveness between top players would be insane and it's a game mode every FPS player loves. That said, it's great to see the creativity when it comes to the game modes it actually does have for online.

The Colours, the sound design, the soundtrack, the animations and in game mechanics are beautiful. The plot is engaging enough to carry us along nicely enough but we're here for the action, its DOOM. The plot is definitely secondary with a DOOM game and i'm so glad they decided to focus on the entertainment value of the gameplay. From an outside perspective it seems like the gameplay is quite manic and it will definitely seem that way for a while at first, but as you progress you'll find that if you want to succeed you're going to need to strategise. Lots of upgrades and add ons and abilities allow you to customise your character to your play style and enemies that used to feel like mini bosses are now just guys in the way. Some stages will overwhelm you for a while but once you figure the strategy out things become a lot more tolerable and you feel as if you've done more than just gone in there and mashed the shoot button. Very rewarding and great for re-play value.

Interesting ideas that work very well. If you've never played a DOOM game before I think you'll still love this and if you're already familiar with the franchise you know what to expect and this is definitely going meet those expectations. It's Brutal, it's super fun, and its also self aware. It knows it's a goofy over the top gory shooter. Theres loads of secret items that give a nod to some of the earlier games. Theres a platforming element to it as well. Some people think it drains the momentum of the gameplay sometimes. I can see their point but I think it works well. If you find yourself at one of those sections of the game there's a good chance there are some collectables or an extra life to acquire and its fun figuring out how to get to secret areas of the map.

Definitely recommend and be careful it's addictive!
