Basically kind of like the Eternal DLCs/expansions, picks off where the original game ended in terms of difficulty and like those if you liked Doom 3 (I do) you will like this. The problems you had with Doom 3? They're not entirely gone here. I will say though the lowered camera fuckery when soldiers shoot you is 100% id realizing they made that shit mad annoying in the base game and thank god for that. Biggest major difference now though is the Super Shotty is back and after that point I never looked back at the awful Doom 3 base shotgun ever again. Not to say the SS is perfect since it still seems to have some issues with spread, but I'll take it. The new additional weapon "The Artifact" is cool with its bullet time effect, but I'm gonna be honest the Soul Cube stealing demons health and making it your own? Much cooler. Neat to see all these things become in game power ups in the new Doom games though. Once again proving those games don't distance themselves from Doom 3, but celebrate it just as much as the others.

Brisk 2 and a half to three hour playtime is perfect for this. Will be doing The Lost Missions next.
