new doom is good but i recommend just playing the arcade mode on hard or above once you get a feel for it. the games mechanics make no sense on easy/normal because the healing and resources from melee attacks is super generous and the enemies arent really a threat in hard and above even the weakest hits lop off big chunks of your health, and the melee system forces you to play like a linebacker charging through enemies in close quarters instead of being safe and defensive. its a ton of fun and there arent exactly loads of other good modern shooters. idk i think its lovely to dismiss it because its not 1:1 old doom with pretty graphics

I enjoyed Doom 2016 but I think it's about twice as long as it needed to be. I would probably replay it on arcade mode and stuff if you could blow through it in 4 hours and they put all the bosses better spaced out instead of dropping 3 of them in the last level for some reason.

Nongunz isn't on sale but I bought it anyway and requested a refund 20 minutes later. Bad controls and obtuse menus. Bad.

Reminds me of early unreal engine 3 stuff. It's totally subjective I guess I just feel like I'm wading through grease trying to play them properly

The melee takedowns in Doom never stopped annoying me especially when you upgrade their range and your just teleporting around the screen like a VR game.

Bad. what did you find bad about the controls? i've had no issues, and probably was more willing to work through the obfuscation because i'm having so much fun with the gameplay.

I hated the doom demo but played some multiplayer at my friends house. It was funny owning people with the quake railgun/lg combo since apparently nobody knows how to play a real shooter anymore. I might buy it since it's on sale

It just seems to be the worst of old shooters where the enemies are bullet spongy on hard and the worst of new shooters where you have to rely on melee kills and headshots for the same reason

There's no level design either. The entire game is a string of combat arenas. I enjoyed that in parts but that's why I thought it was way too long, there's nothing new or interesting after you get the shotgun and then the game last 12 hours long and has half life 2 style walk and talks and such

that said a mode where its just generated murder arena after murder arena with only a second to breathe between them would be better than the campaign/arcade mode theres a really awesome, addictive action game in there and when they plug it to have you go get a key or something it sucks rear end

It's why I liked Titanfall 2 more, there's like 2 parts in the whole game you have fight your way out of a locked arena

"The Dark Souls of [genre]" means you can run past all the enemies. Game developers just haven't realized this yet.
