When it comes to the maps, these are my favorite-looking classic Doom levels; the colored lighting and new textures for the game look ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ awesome.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
42 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I really like the soundtrack here; the only real doom songs here are the intro and intermission music, while the rest are really great hellish soundscapes.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
39 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The weapons look okay too; the power weapons I really like, but the basic shotgun and stuff I like the original textures more.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The base gameplay is pretty much the same as doom 1 and 2 but with some added and removed stuff, and its still good gameplay, but the levels for me are kind of a let down, they are a lot more slower paced, large, maze-like and puzzle heavy than any doom 1 or 2 maps, which i dont like as much as just running and gunning.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
16 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Its darker atmosphere gives it a unique identity, while the improved graphics, UI and higher difficulty make it feel like a more polished and challenging take on the classic Doom formula.
