RIGHT?! In the beginning I thought he was being sarcastic but then I realized that he wasn't... Using it to take down Revenants' Launchers, Mancubus' "flamers" and Arachnotrons Turrets on the beginning (and on any part) of the game fast is priceless... Even more on harder difficulties. Not to mention that the "SG Grenade switch to Sniper shot" combo is very powerful at the start. No wonder he suffered with the Marauders...

There was only ONE thing I didn't like. When you would do something or finish a fight and the game would take the control away to show you the New door or something.

The high precision shot is usefull for taking out weak spots. You can shoot the doom hunters floaty thing to remove its shield

[@Nick930]

Yeah, and it's useful for targeting things like turrets on arachnotrons - but my point still stands. It's slow, and feels out of place.

[@twit3959]

@@Nick930 I think it honestly depends if you have a good aim, if your fast enough you could take out for example; a turret on an arachnotron, and with the 20% faster reload skill it can become really useful, really satisfying to use, but it depends on how you play.

[@dagoblinwizard]

I don't like that the game tells you the weakpoints of some enemies when they are introduced, especially in Nightmare mode. I feel like weakpoints is something the player should figure out through gameplay and the fact the game tells you kinda takes away from the fun and excitement of figuring out stuff by yourself, especially since some are painfully obvious weakpoints. That's literally my only complaint with the game so far.

The marauder is actually genius to change the pace and keep you on your toes. It's the most distinct enemy in the game. Watch the video where a dev explains its purpose, that really made me understand

[@MAxAMILLIoN757]

Link?

[@overlordchemm3705]

For the most part I absolutely love the game, even the marauder encounters can be fun once I got them down to a science. But I feel like they could’ve definitely worked on the chainsaw. It felt kinda tedious and annoying to be strafing around and dodging between enemies, only to have to completely stop what I was doing to track down a zombie or soldier because I had run out of ammo for damn near everything. I guess that’s more on me, but I used the chainsaw a healthy amount and still found myself going out of my way to find ammo really often. The second problem I have with the chainsaw, however, is the fuel. In Doom 2016 you had, what, 5 fuel slots? That gave them some range in what costed what amount of fuel, and it seemed way more believable in a sense. If I’m running low on ammo, I can get rid of a demon that maybe gives me trouble or is a big priority *and* refill my guns, taking out two birds with one stone, and streamlining the combat process. But I’ve almost never been able to chainsaw things that aren’t imps, soldiers, or zombies in Eternal. Even demons that I felt by all means *should* have costed 2 fuel costed 3, the Maykr drones and prowlers being the main two that I’m pointing to for this.

[@angryinternetperson6629]

The better you get at the game, the less often you're going to need to use the chainsaw. And this is coming from someone who's beaten all the Master Levels and DLCs on Ultra-Nightmare (only the campaign left now...) And the game doesn't give you 5-7 fuel charges anymore because now we have the Crucible. That's what you have to use now to immediately kill super heavy demons. So it makes sense that you only have 3 fuel charges. Although, I can see where you're getting from when you say Maykr Drones and Prowlers should only take up two fuel charges. They're classified as heavy demons by the game, but they're obviously a lot weaker than Hell Knights or Mancubi. So I can sort of understand that.

[@Sinclairelim]

5:00 - Whut? Presition shot is super useful to take out mancubus cannons and archatron's turrets early one. With good aim it's a super useful way to make the encounters much less dangerous. It's a bit tricky to use on the move, but it's stil doable. I didn't feel out of place for me at all.

instead of cutscene they could just make direct loud noise of opening doors or blew up wall, so you instantly know where are you going, there actualy places where it works like that - last enemy breaks a wall creating a progression path for you.

In Doom 2016, the power-ups felt pretty important and impactful. I barely noticed them in this game though. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not, relying on power-ups might not be a solid mechanic, but that was something I noticed during my playthrough.

[@sgd7726]

Not gonna lie. This wasn’t really a review, it was just explaining the entire game and not actually giving it a review.

[@rockywild4387]

This game is unlike classic doom, its like DMC where u keep fighting in arena then then u can proceed to the next level i like this game so much but i like the classic doom better due to its run and gun machenics and searching the keys for the locked door, marauder is such as pain when he shows up with other monster.over all this is the best game and very challenging in different way

[@iMost067]

i strongly disagree with sniper upgrade being usefull only in the end, since it didnt stop you, didnt interupt normal firing mode from auto-canon, and it deals quite a lot of damage and not only destroys weak points, if you use autocanon with precission shot out of CD every time you end up with autocanon that have Chaingun DPS and ability to destroy weakpoints. Micro missiles on the other hand is straigh up worse wersion of chaingun that deals about same damage but can interupt enemies.

[@HungryHungryShoggoth]

The kaleidoscope mod for the heavy cannon is probably my MOST used mod. It's amazing for extremely quickly neutering the Heavy and Super Heavy demons by eliminating weak-points with a single, well-placed shot. Sure, it's situational, but in those situations it's a Godsend

[@GeoShock]

Yes the marauder feels...out of place. Like it doesn't belong in the game. The mechanic to attack when his eyes flash green feels out of place in a game like this. While his design is incredible his behavior feels weird to fight against and so did the boss fight against the gladiator in the Sentinel Prime mission. I enjoy fighting against both of them but I can't help but feel like something doesn't feel right about them. That's about the only "complaint" i have with the game.

[@Nick930]

It's the same issue i have with bosses in modern games. This idea that you can only defeat a boss by waiting for that weakpoint to appear... it's so lame and formulaic. One of my biggest problems with "Tomb Raider: Anniversary" was that they took boss fights like the T-Rex, and turned them into super boring arena fights where you need to wait till the game tells you to shoot. Took all the fun out of it. Just let me blast a boss away with all my guns! Don't show me a health bar... when it drops dead, then I'll know I won

[@SavageGamerCA]

If Marauder didn't require the green light stagger he would be fine like how he is in the Battle mode.

[@thegamingpesant2880]

My main issues with the Marauders are that when I see them and I'm low on health, I go and look for some health items all the while he's sending his motherfucking dog at me and shooting his lasers at me. He feels like the kind of enemy you face in a one on one, kinda like the first encounter with him. If the green light wasn't the only way to attack him, and if his motherfucking dog just ceased to exist, I wouldn't have much of a problem with them. THANK GOD you never fight two at a time.

I wish the story was larger with more focus in the game. Sure I'm probably alone on this one.

[@myvids4329]

The cut scenes are necessary for playing on ultra violent or nightmare, give the heart rate a few moments to come down

[@DanoLefourbe]

I guess it's a personal thing, but the sniper is good since the very beginning of the game. It's the best way to rip enemies weak points/armaments out. Even better than sticky grenade most of the time. Especially good against Mancubus since they're so powerful close range. Also the simple heavy cannot bullets are indeed very weak, and that's a good thing. It makes it the safest way to refill health with glory kills on weaker demons. And when you play on Ultra-violence or above you can NOT miss a glory kill in some situations. Overall I think the module choices are very much dependant on a player's preferences and are well balanced in the end. I think the microwave beam sucks compare to heat blast, but I've seen a lot of people think otherwise, and I think it's just a question of style, and that's also a good thing for the game. As for the end of combat cutscenes, it's a good way to give the player a nice breather after an intense fight. It also puts some empashis on the player's achievement, which a simple lign of text wouldn't do. I do'nt think it's a relic of the past, as you make it sound. I'm pretty sure it's a very deliberate decision to include them.

[@tata313155]

I have to disagree with the fact that the scoped rifle mod is useless. In the beginning stages taking out tough demons like spider turrets, mancubus and revenant is pretty difficult (i played on nightmare) and the scoped mode helps a ton in weakening them quickly as well as in late game stages like you said for health and ammo pickups. I must agree though that the middle game section makes the machine gun almost useless, since the minigun uses the same ammo type while dishing out much higher dps.

[@cerjmedia]

I am a little disappointed they didn't bring back the Creator Mode (I think it's called snapmatic or something like that) It was a very cool addition of DOOM that added infinite hours of replayability

[@kristoferjefferson2058]

Personally, I find the way they’ve upped the difficulty in constantly having to mange ammo, health, enemy types and movement makes the game more engaged, but it massively takes away from the power trip that was there in 2016. It feels like they could have left the amount of management for higher difficulties, allowing players more to chose how they want to play it.

[@kozmnavt5158]

My only complaints with Eternal is that they changed the aesthetic of Doom 2016. This game has a more colorful sci-fi fantasy esc kind of look and feel vs the dark helish horror look and feel of the first game which I preferred. Also the marauder I thought was a terrible addition to the game with his artificial difficult allowing you to only fight him in one way which is big contrast to the other enemies that allow you to tackle them in different ways. He’s just frustrating and thrown in at random intervals to halt your progression. Overall tho the game is great.

[@kirbykir]

You know some fans hated the fact that Doom's artstyle was being modernised to be something closer to halo, right? Can't please everyone.

[@tipsy634]

I understand exactly what you mean, but for some reason I like the vibrant art style. It feels more gamey and memorable compared to all of Mars and Hell in the first game which was an identical blur. This game is eye candy! My favourite thing is the blood, how bright it is, how the demons start falling apart when you shoot them which is something I haven't had as much fun messing with since Left 4 Dead 2, and killing a cacodemon for it to have bright blue blood. I agree 100% on the Marauder. I hope they do something to patch this enemy so it is more fun to fight and less of an absolutely extortionate difficulty spike which has a counter to literally everything you can possibly do.

I agree with everything you said except the precision bolt. Especially with the rune that slows down time it’s really useful in a lot of combat encounters. I’d give it a strong 9/10 however a step up from Doom 2016

[@EvolPunk]

battle mode is fun but it's either far too easy or far too hard. A slayer who knows what he's doing will win most of his matches, a pair of demons that know what their doing can evade the slayer almost infinitely if one of them dies. I think just removing or limiting the summoning abilities could balance the battle mode significantly as I find I struggle the most when the demons both realize they can summon everything at once then the pressure on the slayer becomes immense. I do enjoy the concept of battle mode but it does feel really basic compared to the more extensive multiplayer of DOOM 2016. I find that being offensive or defensive as the slayer is 50/50 as I'm either fighting one or both new demons trying to figure out the game so I can play more aggressive and not get punished or I struggle and usually lose to two demons that have found their strategies and are familiar and comfortable with the demons they play as. That coupled with each demon summoning 3 lesser demons each for a total of 6 just feels a little too unbalanced, not to mention seasoned players will evade the slayer when one demon has fallen until the respawn timer is up just makes the multiplayer feel like a chore that can drain you of all motive to play the game in a short time span. I think demons should be lives based in tandem with the 15 second consecutive kill timer.

My only criticism is that there where little bit too much annoying parkour, later stages it almost felt like super mario or something, with lavapits, flaming boobytraps etc. Ofc the movement is lot smoother and faster. Doom 2016 felt almost unplayable after this. Also the music was somewhat toned down from 2016. Multiplayer didnt really feel something that i would play alot.

[@teamleaf4570]

I hate that Doom Eternal had so much platforming. Plus I actually liked the vague story of Doom 2016 and was hoping for the next chapter of that after a cliff hanger ending. While the graphical improvements of Eternal along with the enemy types, environments and weapon mechanics were all well crafted, I've never played a prior Doom game where the conservation of ammo was detrimental. Enemies had weak spots and an environment lacking ammo and health pickups in lieu of a plethora of useless collectable crap.

[@TheTrailerCREAT0R]

I really disliked the Platforming in Doom 2016 so the fact that it plays an even bigger role in this one just doesn’t sound inviting and more cutscenes basically goes against what the 2016 version was trying to do. Good review though I may get it down the road.

[@tipsy634]

The platforming in 2016 was bad but it's actually lots of fun in this game. You have far more maneuverability than in 2016 so it feels more natural than climbing up ladders or double jumping was in 2016.

it's just a brief example of the kind of needless immunities these enemies have. The Arch-Vile is another good example.. having to bypass his shield just to deal damage.. it's needlessly complicated.

Fantastic video! Also, can you do an NFS Heat Vs Forza Horizon 4?

[@jalliboy]

why ? that is two differently kind of racing games.. they don`t need a vs video. they are both good in their own way..

[@mattfulkerson2208]

Excellent review, thanks. I have to disagree with your assessment about the platforming, though. I’m completely annoyed by it. You mention the cut scenes being a frustrating distraction to the flow of the game, but I’d argue the same thing regarding all the jumps and scaling walls. I find it a very tedious diversion to the action. Great game otherwise!

[@thebrokenone5896]

The game also gives you the 2 original games

You spelt review wrong on the intro

ah.. that I did. Was trying to get the font to look right and must've deleted the E by mistake. Oh well

Loving it

The Marauder pisses me off so much. It always takes me at least 3 tries to beat him

[@Its-pronounced-ay-zaer-e]

same

[@Latmov1234]

It's my favourite game but will try doom 2016 after beating eternal.

[@DIESTAR2010]

The platforming was ANNOYING as hell, imo it should’ve been kept to a minimum but too much of it is going on in the game. The god dang rings you have to fly through in Heaven annoyed the crap out of me. The multiplayer gets boring quick for me it needs to have more variety in game modes and demons imo. The marauder is an amazing challenge but he needs a bigger indicator on when you actually can attack him. Honestly it’s an 8/10 for me, great pace great fun, amazing cut scenes, and the doom slayer has so much more personality. The marauder is annoying to attack openings on and mp is barebones and gets boring quick as it is.

[@AlienVolt]

I'm looking forward to playing this.

[@Kinos141]

DOOM Eternal is basically the DOOM II remake.

[@a7xandria198]

Am I liking DooM Eternal, Nick? Ha. Am I... liking it? Haha! AM I?! NICK! Why, yes--I really; wholeheartedly am.

[@DpNemo]

FYI, sticky bombs MELT marauders

[@lordgigapiller]

I just hate that damn dog the marauder likes to spam

[@user-yi5mt2df5q]

Just beat the game. It was great, but the last boss was a bit of a letdown. The marauder enemy also pisses me off.

[@444haluk]

GUTS! HUGE GUTS!

[@Romanian901]

well the doom hunters are easy once you realize rockets do massive damage to them. use plasma then lock on missiles. however marauders are crap

[@dragonsban3327]

Already 100 percented it aside from beating it on UN

This and Minecraft are my favorite games of all time,

i miss doom 2016 multiplayer =(

[@marcdiop6456]

It is GOREgeous

[@flambelk4489]

The game might not be actually perfect, but it's pretty close to it. Gotta realize when one is being somewhat greedy.

[@TheFarigGuy]

Ending This Game, took the life out of me...BUT thats Doom for ya....

[@universalcrazy4889]

I only have one single issue with the game... The music was not as great as doom 2016...yes, "the only they fear is you" is a badass song, but I think its the only one I really felt like hearing it when I was not playing doom eternal Im not saying that doom eternal's soundtrack sucks... I'm just saying that it's not as badass or as rehearable (not a real word I know) as doom 2016 was. BFG DIVISION vs. the only thing they fear is you I think BFG is better

[@Joseph-wh5of]

Did anyone else prefer Doom 2016?

[@welackthemotion6182]

Joseph Williams i prefer Doom 2016, this one it’s more like the Dark Souls of Doom games.I like challenges, but this game is maybe not for me...

[@Joseph-wh5of]

@@welackthemotion6182 Same here it's not even the difficulty. The game in my opinion is missing the dark gritty tone that Doom 2016 had. This new game is more fantasy and has an arcade tone.even when you do a headshot and doom eternal there's a "funny" popping sound that happens each time you do it. Things like that bother me.

[@Karma_8413]

Joseph Williams they wanted to be more like the original doom and less doom 3

[@welackthemotion6182]

I don’t think Doom eternal is like the original. Even Doom 3 has more in common with og Doom than the reboot
