My biggest gripe with Doom is with the audio, but not the also suitably metal soundtrack.
It looks great, and the art direction is suitably metal.
It seems id learned from the tepid response to those games and put the focus on gameplay. While it's not the visual spectacle Rage or Doom 3 were at the time of their releases. In the context of most games, this is hardly exciting, but when the guns aren't slightly higher firing rate and slightly lower damage versions of each other and the upgrades aren't a suppressor and laser sight, but are more "do you want to shoot 3 rockets at once or do you want the ability to detonate your rocket in mid air," it makes for a helluva good time. The stuff surrounding a lot of modern games is all here, upgrading guns, acquiring perks, completing challenges and changing loadouts. They've injected its formula into the modern era to keep the experience approachable while adding modern depth to it. Id seemed to make all the right design decisions to retain what made the original Doom the classic it is. There's plenty of minor and clever touches that make it Doom play like a labor of love. There are several different and brief animations depending on the angle at which you execute your enemy, and because health (and ammo if you use a chainsaw) drops with every glory kill, these kills become necessary and rewarding, whereas if they were just frivolously for show, they would grow old and no one would perform them after a certain point. While the concept of executing enemies in the same few ways over and over sounds repetitive and dull, it's anything but. Doom rips those staples out and tosses them aside for glory kills. Hiding away to reload and regenerate health is a shooter staple these days. This new Doom has returned to its arena shooter sensibilities. I find one of the key reasons Doom became successful in the first place is its emphasis on staying mobile and being in the thick of it. But this 2016 incarnation of the legendary shooter has somehow crawled out of Limbo and through development Hell to us no worse for wear. It's been through several delays, rebuilt from scratch, had poor showings at events, its beta was poorly received and the critic embargo suggested that Bethesda might not believe in it anymore.

Apologies for making you groan, but id Software has seemingly been in its own dark age for over a decade, and everything we knew about Doom before its release would suggest that id would remain there. One might have thought this iteration of Doom, to be, well.
