    There were no doubts that Doom would play fast, look stunning, or be gory; the surprise is that Doom is as relevant, smart and self-aware as it is; merging old ideas with new ones; injecting its near-flawless shooter mechanics into a campaign that’s impeccably refined, hilariously dumb and fiendishly moreish.

    Doom is the best possible way to play, in 2016, something that was great in 1993. Unmissable.

    DOOM is hands-down one of the best reimagined and exciting FPS games this generation.

    The multiplayer aside, the true appeal to the game remains in the single-player campaign, which is how it was and should be with a DOOM title.

    Look past the lop-sided multiplayer, and Doom is still one helluva reboot. It’s a must for any modern FPS fan looking to taste the ultra-violence of yesteryear. Your Nana will hate it. [August 2016, p71]

    Combat may become a little tedious after long stretches of play, the load times are a little lengthy, multiplayer is a smudge unbalanced, and SnapMap is a so-so addition, but the adrenaline-fueled gameplay and the ample replayability featured within the campaign makes this a standout entry in the FPS genre – let alone a worthwhile resurrection of DOOM.

    People will be talking about the first two Doom games for decades more – those two games may well be remembered as true classics of the gaming medium a century down the track. This Doom won’t. This new Doom is terrible...Like the greedy organisation that unleashes hell on Mars, this is the product of exploitation; the developers at ID Software and Bethesda are playing with fire in treating a property as valuable as Doom this way.

But for me Doom did same thing to PFS as Dark Souls did to action RPGs. (In a possitive way). It is not afraid to be very challenging. At the same time is fair all the time and gives you oportunity to avoid every enemy attack.it gives you very well ballanced tools that you need to use wiselly (chainsaw, bfg, powerups, glory kills). Every death (even on harder difficulties is you mistake). And the thrill and feeling when you finish difficult fight is same as when you beat DS Boss.… Expand

Also,One of the best shooters i have played in a very long time. Killing enemies in this game (especially bosses) feels extremely satisfying. Also, glory kills are an awesome addition to the game as you get to brutally finish off enemies who you already injured. The story is not the best but in a game like DOOM, the story does not matter as the impressive graphics and smooth gameplay makes up for it. I had a lot of enjoyment from the multiplayer, however, i found most of my enjoyment went into the singleplayer and Snapmap.

    I have to admit that the multiplayer is not amazing but if you want to play a game with groundbreaking multiplayer, Battlefield 4 and Overwatch are for you. However, if you are like me and just care about the gameplay and amount of fun a game can provide then DOOM is for you. An easy contender for GOTY.    … Expand

They took the concept of a very out-dated game and put new life in it. They managed to stay fairly true to the original game, but to be honest the original doom by today's standards is babby-tier.

    When you have the story and beauty of games such as Uncharted 4 and Dark Souls 3 (both amazing games btw), it's hard to release a dated concept. The gaming scene has massively changed even since when Doom 3 was released.

    The systems they implemented in this game played out fairly well, you are encouraged to constantly keep moving forward with the glory kill system. It punishes conventional fps tactics of 'popping from behind cover, shoot, return to cover', you'll run out of ammo/health in no time doing this.

    One of the biggest pros for ID is the engine. Few devs release such a smooth, great looking game for PC upon release these days. Also even fewer have an engine that can handle above 60fps.

    Really the game is only engaging on Ultra-Violent or above, I think most people would get bored with the game if it didn't present a challenge. It's also designed for a specific market, and I don't think they'll get the multiplayer audience they were intending. Still a great single player though.    … Expand

    Игра хорошая, но вначале очень скучная, битв почти нет, как и оружия, но когда ты доходишь до середины примерно, вот тогда начинается веселье!Игра хорошая, но вначале очень скучная, битв почти нет, как и оружия, но когда ты доходишь до середины примерно, вот тогда начинается веселье! Мощные битвы, крутое оружие, много крови!!! Но что по сюжету? Есть одна девка, которая захотела открыть портал в ад и на этом весь сюжет закручивается. Это понятно ещё с начала игры, так что это не спойлер.стоит ли играть в игру? Конечно! Причём сейчас она стоит 300 руб в пс сторе! Пока!… Expand
