What Doom Eternal Should Have Been
No glory kill crap here. If Ion Fury is the Neo Boomer shooter for Duke Nukem, Dusk for quake 1 and Amid Evil for Heretic/Hexen, then this is the one for doom. The graphics are a great blend of sprites and 3d environments, the music and sound are solid and the guns feel nice and chunky. Theres also a built in level editor and menu for playing community maps and campaigns. Really this feels like the true successor to doom than what ever ID was doing. And this is comming from someone that loved doom 2016 and enjoyed doom 3. But anyway, I'd love to give this a 5 star but there are some flaws that keeping it from joining the absolute top of the Neo Boomer Shooter scene. The most notable is the save system. It may break the game for some players. It works like the Vita chamber from bioshock or medbays from system shock. Once you activate a checkpoint and die, you respawn with the only penalty being having to walk back to where you died, though you also take a hit to score and don't get the end level icon for finishing with out dying. I found the gameplay to be fun enough that it didn't bother me and just did my best to get as many deathless runs as possible, though I do wish it had a traditional system in it. Other than that, there are some performance issues, and the enemy variety could be better. The game also ends a bit suddenly and with blatant sequal/DLC bait despite having a minimal story. Plus you have to register and go online to do anything outside of the main campaign, so a bit of drm in the level editor and multiplayer side. Still, if they address the issues with a sequal, they could have something that surpases both modern doom and many other neo boomer shooters.
