(Have this on Switch, so this is more of a review of the game itself than it is this specific version.) Great aesthetic and fun (ultra-violent) gameplay which integrates seamlessly into the story without breaking your immersion. The closest games to this I've played would be Hotline Miami (frantic violence & retro look) and Dead Cells (for the tight platformer handling) Only willing to dock this game any credit for it's brevity, but this is definitely is worth the $15 price of admission regardless. Recommend going in blind, so try to avoid any walkthroughs or playthroughs unless you get stuck
This game is good, like damn good. Now, this is with the caveat that you prefer Doom 1/2 vs Heretic or quake. Nods to other games, weapons & upgrades that just feel right, secrets EVERYWHERE... This just itches an itch that I've had for a while. My criticism, it's too damn dark. Like literally, half the damn game I've been spamming the "light" spell just to see the enemies. Not a deal-breaker, more of a "be-advised" more than anything. TLDR: A solid purchase for Doom-fans that's cheap enough for any faults I've found to be considered minor at worst.
