Best Doom game of them all. Doom Eternal is nowhere near as good, not even close. I wonder how new Doom The Dark Ages will go, but it already looks better than Eternal because it has no stupid forced mechanics...
Seem like Doom want eternal wanted people to be switching weapons constantly like high-level players of Doom 2016. But it just wasn't as fun to do it that way for every player
I personally enjoyed both, but I understand why people wouldn't like Eternal. It's more of an action game than a shooter like 2016. The gameplay is still fast frantic and fun in my eyes. Only a handful of games actually have the same fluid first person movement that Eternal has. Titanfall 2 is one of them.
Gamers keep complaining about easy mode in games but also complain that Eternal is too hard with the ammo and shield management. Just can't satisfy everyone really.
Oh yeah, I loved eternal. It really clicked for me when I played on a steam deck and had the two back triggers to the grenade and jump.
