DOOM

This game is insanely well-optimized, and the combat feels incredibly smooth and satisfying. I've always been a fan of the Halo franchise and always wanted to try the game that inspired it. DOOM is definitely a must-play.

This game is a mess, and an insult to DOOM's legacy.

I couldn't get through the first two levels without encountering a variety of bugs. Physics objects sliding around indefinitely, UI scrollbars not working in certain contexts, and tabbing out and back in to the game enough caused it to hang and lock up my mouse cursor, requiring me to Ctrl-Alt-Del and kill it through the Task Manager using only keyboard inputs. Just a real lack of polish.

And it's just so goddamn bloated - you don't need weapon/suit upgrades or weapon mods. It's DOOM. It should be run and gun, not scour the map for secrets so that you can get more upgrade points. Very disappointing.

If you want story dont buy this game but if you want killing creatures,buy this game.It has a good boss fights

The foundation of the new modern era of DOOM series. Great combat, great music and soundtrack, and satisfy gunplay. Strongly recommend.

Back in 2016 i used to dream being able to play such game on my potato PC . 9 years later that dream came true , and was the wait worth it.
I enjoyed every moment of the game . The music , environment , demons , gore and especially the slayer , everything is just pure destruction and chaos. DOOM not only as a reboot but also as a stand along game is just perfect . I've completed almost all the doom games (except doom 64) , and this one is the best.
This might be the one of the only games I finished that never ended .

⟐ Doom (2016) boosted my testosterone level by 1000%.
⟐ It felt very nice to kill demons like it's nothing.
⟐ The Doom Slayer represents manhood (that I can relate to).

⟐ Once again, the soundtracks are powerful and well-done.
⟐ The weapon arsenal plays an important role of staying alive (and killing demons easier).
⟐ The background environments are amazing for taking screenshots.

~ Overall: 9.5 / 10 (Buy it!)

Excellent campaign, graphics, music, gameplay, this game has it all, and even more so with the price they offer on sale. It's even very well optimized and you can play it with a low-resource PC. Highly recommended.

I don't tend to play single player games but this game was on sale for $2. Its been pretty fun so far and I think I'll end of playing it a good deal more. I would recommend it.

One of the best shooters of all time. Period.

The flow is incredible. You can really let yourself go and test your fluidity and speed!

Its beautifully dark, its relentless, its carnage!

Can't wait for Doom: Dark Ages!

The game breaking bug where you would lose all your progress is where I felt like i got kicked in the nutsack by the devs, 10 hours of game time where I spent it looking for secrets and upgrades was just gone with no hope of a solution, it would be fine if this was week one of the games life, but we are almost 10 years in, how can this faulty feature still be present is beyond me, feels like the devs do not care at all, thus I cannot reccomend it, I can't overlook this, its unacceptable.
I already tried most fix i found online but none of them worked, if anyone has some more insight into this let me know.
Other than that the game is great.

Great game. Nice atmosphere and sound effects. Music is awesome. However, not a big fan of Bethesda as a publisher or a dev. Id Software I have respect for them and I'm glad they're the developers. I still believe in my opinion that Doom 3 is the best Dooms game. This is good, however. 8/10.

Everything you want out of a DOOM game and more. This game was true to its word and revived the franchise we know it as, with the 2020 sequel DOOM: Eternal, and the prequel DOOM: The Dark Ages coming soon this May. Ever since I first played it, 2016 (and Eternal) have both cemented themselves as some of my Top 10 favorite games of all time. It doesn't matter what price, this game is a must-play for any fan of the first-person shooter genre, as it completely redefined what it means to Rip and Tear.

You'll feel like an unstoppable badass as hoards of enemies bow before your steel barrel of demon-slaying justice. Every gun feels incredible to use as Demons explode into dark red bloody giblets, along with Mick Gordon's kickass award winning soundtrack that'll turn anyone into a metal-head and break your neck from the shear magnitude of head-banging you'll commit (somewhat based on a true story). I still pop in the soundtrack for this game, even years after I've originally played it because of how incredible it is. Every song perfectly matches what you're doing in the game as it's a dynamic soundtrack, meaning it'll get more intense the better you do. "BFG Division" became iconic across the internet as the "DOOM Music" song for a reason.

Multiplayer and Snapmap are there for those who are interested in a more community-focused experience, but the core of what makes this game incredible is its blood and gore-filled campaign as the Doomslayer sending the Demons back to where they came from. Remember, the only thing they fear, is you.

Rip and Tear, Until it is Done.

Besides cheap half-assed looking loading screens and falling through the map twice, it's a great game, and incredibly immersive. The map design is genius; No matter where you go, you always end up where you need to be. The green lights subtly guide you when you're lost, which is a really nice touch. Tons of hidden secrets to find, making exploration super rewarding.

very good game, however i toggled dev mode to mess around and then my save got corrupted so i lost ~3 hours of playtime

This is one of the best games I have ever played and as of the moment I only have 0.8 hours. The soundtrack is OUTSTANDING and the gameplay is great. It is insanely fun especially for people who love fps and shoot em up games. The graphics are amazing, too. Hope that anyone who plays this has a great time like I did.

I don't like doing this, but I have to say coming back to this game isn't fun for me...

Bear in mind, "not recommend" doesn't mean that I hate this game or those who enjoy it. I might even try it again in the future, because I think it does quite a few thing very well.

The thing is...this game isn't what it is advertised as or what people remember it as. What do I mean? Think of Doom 2016 and all that plays in every mind palace, mine included, is sweet music going "dudda-dudda doodleoodleoodle dudda-dudda-dudda" as beefy guns go "chunk-chunk-chunk" and "pa-kow pa-koom!" while demons get ripped apart...YEAH!!!

But that isn't nearly the whole game. Gracious me...the platforming and you know I'm right. Have mercy...the hard stop cutscenes, where my guy who rips demons in half stops EVERYTHING to watch a woman hobble her way to an elevator. Bruh, if I have to see a delivery drone fly off again...how about I get upgrades by ripping them from a demon?

Then, the combat isn't nearly as good as we remember. What was fun and fast and frenetic during the dark days of the corona-times, when I first played the game, is just dull, lifeless circle-strafe this and hitscan, hitscan, oop! I hit a rock and now got sucker punched by a demon and now I'm dead...yawn, wake me up when the game loads back up, thanks.

I respect what the game did, absolutely, but heaven above I'm tired of circle-strafing brown/black/red enemies in brown/black/red environment. I don't care about this story. I don't care about these characters. I don't care about these enemies or the environments...every time I come back to Doom 2016 I just get bored.

It did what it did when it did it. Again, I respect that we finally got a game that didn't have to have armed mercenaries show up so we could have gratuitous Call of Duty combat with chest high walls...yeah I'm looking at you, AvP! But coming back to this, I just don't like it.

It's been the better part of a decade and it is okay to acknowledge that something isn't a great as I remember. Again, if you like the game, don't let my words take that from you, but it is equally okay to acknowledge that the game is by no means some flawless work of the divine just because it has some good character animations.

I value Doom 2016's presence in gaming's history, even as I can't recommend it.

stunning grahpvis and its a good shoot em up for non brain requring activity

It’s a fun fps campaign, grab for cheap during one of the many sales.

Only thing to note- not your typical “carefully advance” fps. You are strongly rewarded by all mechanics to move quickly and kill at close range.
Also- always liked the sci-fi Doom 3/This One to what the other games have done.

got it on sale finally. glad i did. its fun so far and i like that the maps arent just "follow the bad guys" you have to actually use the map to figure out where to go, how to get to the secrets etc,

Seriously, DOOM is awesome. Killing demons is fun, the story's very nice, and I'm hooked on collecting all the logs and stuff.

This game is flat out incredible. What a triumphant return the best series in pure FPS gaming!

It's an all-time top 10 game for me. It's DOOM and it's the best one. The Devs have managed to recreate the originals faithfully while also including new and interesting systems that bring the classic shooter up to modern standards.

10/10

Some mornings, after waking up and playing DOOM 2016, I feel a deep desire to kill an 'Akhund' with the same fury I use against the game’s demons.such a good music album it is !!

A great entry to the doom franchise imo. I had so much fun going around and collecting as many secrets and collectibles as I can while enjoying the combat. It runs like a charm on my system so that's a bonus. I love this game

EPIC shooter and simple storyline yet its still the best recall for the 1st game i ever played as a kid this does it justice and more.

Best FPS shooter I've ever played. Genius balance between exploration and combat, you're exited about finding new weapon/unlocking new mod through the whole campaign, however you still have enough time to develop your favorite playstyle and get accustomed to it. I was a bit bitter about multiplayer achievements, but it turned out lobbies are somewhat alive and gameplay is enjoyable. Overall 10/10.

It's just Doom - an amazing, visually impressive and very well designed FPS with old-school gameplay-driven action.

Fantastic game but be warned to all achievement hunters and completionists, this game has Multiplayer only achievements, that took FOREVER to get. There are still ≈100 or so people who play multiplayer so it is in theory possible to get these achievements still, but this will not be the case forever.

The most fun I've maybe ever had with an FPS.

Great game, glad I played it on PC. Back in 2016/2017, I tried playing it, but never cared enough to get through, this time, on PC, it's different.

Only real critique is that there is perhaps too much story. Too much dialogue.

The opening cinematic said 'rip and tear until it is done' and that was all I needed to hear. I played this game on the hardest difficulty available to me and it was truly a challenge and a real joy to attempt to grind through. This is one of those games where you should really trust the developers on the game they were crafting, once you have access to all tools within the game, it really gets moving and the later rounds get *hell*ish.

Ultimately, after finishing this game my thoughts on this are is that DOOM (2016) feels like an inspired take at a 3D FPS Bullet Hell. BFGs are your bombs to reset the screens, Chainsaws refill ammo, Ripping & Tearing refills health, and your weapons are tools that allow you to craft scenarios advantageous to said ripping & tearing.

This was honestly, a refreshing comparison from Dusk after recently finishing it. If you played DOOM in the past, and it didn't click or if you haven't played it and are looking for a pure adrenaline filled romp through a futuristic hellscape then please stop reading these reviews and rip and tear until it is done.

The perfect game. PERFECT. After my first run, I had a blast going back to find all the hidden classic maps. Then stepping in and hearing the original soundtrack? Absolutely beautiful! Remakes usually miss the mark, but this 2016 version is the clear exception—an absolute masterpiece.

Great graphics for its time, kick-ass soundtrack and top notch gunplay. Rip and tear, until it's done.

Fun, gritty, and dark. A true reboot of the classics. I like the mechanics and combat of eternal better but the vibes go so hard

really good, cheaper than eternal on sale, has a soundtrack you can buy

GOATed story and gameplay with a fun and unique online mode

It was a fun movement shooter - maxing everything out and finding all the secrets was rewarding

DOOM (2016) – A Perfect Stress Reliever

This game is the ultimate game for blowing off steam after a long day. With its fast-paced, no-nonsense combat, brutal executions, and an arsenal of ridiculously fun weapons, it delivers pure, adrenaline-fueled demon-slaying action. The movement is fluid, the soundtrack is an aggressive pulse of metal that keeps you hyped, and the levels are packed with secrets to uncover. There's no unnecessary hand-holding—just you, a shotgun, and an army of demons to rip and tear through. If you're looking for a game to turn off your brain and unleash some carnage, DOOM is exactly what you need.

Pretty good, entertaining, and very well done, but with very casual gameplay and very boring challenges (and achievements). Recommended? Sure. The game still has a few bugs here and there, backup your save folder.

Gameplay: Enter a room, it fills with demons, kill them all, go to the next room, it fills with demons, kill them all, and repeat throughout all levels until you finish the game. A few simple and boring challenges in every levels.

Play again? I'm not sure, maybe but I don't think so. Play Doom Eternal? No, I don't think so either, I don't like the direction Doom is going.

Soundtrack top notch!

It is super fun, entertaining, and faced paced. There is so much to focus on at the same time, while smashing the SKULLS of your enemies. The violence is tied in just right, and even though killing demons over, and over again might get repetitive, they tie it in SO WELL with the story line that every glory kill feels different.

9.5/10 modern remake of the original, really awesome with pretty simple mechanics and the combat is addicting blah blah blah. about a 7 hour campaign on ultra violence. One of my favourites

This game had the task of bringing Doom into the modern age, and it completely succeeded. It delivers an experience that’s not only great for long-time fans but also for anyone who just wants to shoot down some demons.

The best part of the game is its fast-paced first-person shooter combat. No stealth, no taking cover, no reloading and the only way to get ammo and health back is by killing. There is no room for playing cautiously, you have to be aggressive and make full use of your arsenal to slaughter demons before they slaughter you. This high-action approach to FPS gameplay is incredibly fun to me and, even nine years after release, still feels distinct to Doom (2016) and its follow-up, Doom Eternal. The intense soundtrack amplifies the experience even further. I also love the way the game looks, great graphics, cool environments, and of course the glory kills are as brutal as they are satisfying.

The first few missions feel like a bit of a slow start due to how restricted your arsenal is early on, though that might just be because I played the even faster Doom Eternal first. I also heard some complaints about certain weapons being too strong compared to others, but I never felt this was an issue, I enjoyed using every weapon frequently. Overall, a fantastic game. I really can’t think of any major negatives, fully recommend.

I'm the sort of person who bought Eternal before DOOM '16.

The feel is not the same as eternal - the general feel was way more dark and eerie - but it was a joyful experience while it lasted. I was able to complete it at Ultra Violence (I play nightmare on Eternal), but I have no real interest or motivation to go back and try Nightmare. For me, this was just a complete once game.

One thing that bugged the hell outta me was the waiting time between deaths (and when accidentally insta-dying falling out of bounds, contrary to Eternal which is much more forgiving) - and it's not just my slow potato-clock-toaster-looking-a$$ pc - it's after you spawn in, you have to find your way back to where you were, fight numerable monsters (again), before finding the real event where you died, which is annoying af ngl

Really fun fast paced shooter game. you really feel like a god playing as doom guy. finishing moves are also gore and satisfying. 100% recommended if you seeking an arcade fps game.

Thought I would go back and give Doom and Doom Eternal a run before the new launch. Great game, even today still a blast. That is until the platforming garbage. I forgot why I haven't enjoyed a Doom game since the original. Completely breaks the game flow. And it's only worse in Doom Eternal.

I enjoyed the Game because I have been playing it since the first doom and now it is even better because of the speed in which you play through now and just all around better graphics.

definitely a good game to just turn off the brain and shoot anything that moves. good visuals and gore for a 2016 game. however the ending is kind of lacking although it is a clifthanger for doom eternal.

Anytime I have a bad day at work or have to work with someone annoying, this game lets me release a lot of stress and steam with anger. I love crashing skulls with some brutal metal in the background right before sleep. Such a therapy. Have nothing but a lovely sleep after ^^

It is an absolute blast! It flawlessly blends oldschool fast paced action with modern visuals and mechanics. The combat is intense and satisfying, with smooth gunplay and brutal executions that never get old. The level design is clever, offering plenty of hidden secrets and ways to keep the adrenaline pumping. The soundtrack is iconic, with heavy, pulse pounding riffs that perfectly match the chaos, If you're into action packed shooters, this is a must play!

boring gameplay in my opinion. more parkour and unskippable cutscenes than ripping and tearing
