Great start to franchise revival
2016 is possibly one of the best reboots to a franchise. It basically took everything that wasn't taken well by Doom 3 and added a new modern twist to the classic formula... And it very much became the kind of game the original team wanted to make but then settled for the original Doom. So it does have Arena's in the sense that some parts of the game you have to open a heart of evil and then fend off the waves of demons that come after you. At first I thought this was cop out for content but as the game went on I found that the environments did vary and that there still was plenty of exploration to be done in well pack maps. I really like all the guns in this game, there isn't really a bad choice in this game, as all choices are restricted by ammo. However all of the guns do deal damage and can be used on any enemy to dispense hell. Sadly, ID/Bethesda/Microsoft, have decided to cut the multiplayer severs to try to push people over to the terrible Quake Legends game. The multiplayer for this game was amazing, and its beyond unfortunate that ID/Bethesda/Microsoft have failed to include proper death match in the continuation of the series. The story in this game is great, it doesn't have unnecessary cut scenes and doesn't try to be a goofy Saturday cartoon show... It's just Doom. The soundtrack is phenomenal, I would say it is the best of the new games so far. Doom 2016 is very faithful to the OG series and the OG team. It rather unfortunate how the series has changed with Eternal and now Dark Ages... They are good games... but I wouldn't necessarily recommend them as they venture too far off and probably could have fit better in a different franchise entirely simply because they try too hard to "look badass"... Where 2016 is simply just a badass game and doesn't need the staging of the other two.
