      I’m given to understand theres a signifacant amount of platforming in this Doom, and that thought seemed so strange and out of place to me. Please note: I gave up near the end of Doom 2016 out of boredom and annoyance, never played eternal or Dark Ages. Don’t take my bitterness for the series as a review; this no longer my preferred style of FPS. Doom (2016, E, or even DA) could be free, and I still likely will not play.

      EDIT: I reread your question and my response… sorry friend I don’t think I answered you. I’ll keep my reply for now anyway. Anyone who enjoys the modern Doom games deserve all the fun it offers, which they do, but everyone has a type, and sadly they arent for me.

        Eternal was dramatically better than 2016. Much more active gameplay. I got bored of 2016 pretty quickly but eternal reminded me of Quake 3 and I played through to the end.

          That’s actually quite encouraging to hear, thank you. I hadn’t even considered Eternal whatsoever due to my experience with 2016. Q3A was/is one of my all time favorite games. I should still have the grey big box PC CD release somewhere in storage.
