I bought Doom Eternal on summer sale. It’s an ok game but Im actually partially bored playing the campaign.
It looks great but I’m not a fan of the forced chainsawing to get ammo. The feeling of constantly needing to change your weapon for each monster is mostly frustrating and not fun actually.
The campaign experience seems to be “die 30 times while killing the monsters in this area” followed by “die 30 times figuring out how to jump across cliffs to get where you need”.
I guess the real fun is in player vs player so will try that later.
I’ll give em credit: they tried something new. FPS and even boomer shooter genre has gotten stale lately and Doom 16 was their “back to roots” release. A Doom 16-2 wouldn’t have done so well.
I enjoyed it, but at the same time this isn’t exactly the next evolution of the FPS, more of a side branch that needed exploring.

Yeah you’re right. Unless you’re into the “Doom Dance”, the game is pretty intense and exhausting.
