The general sentiment around combat, graphics, and soundtrack is highly positive. However, there is significant criticism of the platforming sections and game's narrative direction, which some players felt deviated from what made the 2016 game successful. Opinions on gameplay mechanics are mixed, with both praise for their innovation and criticism of their complexity. The comparison with the previous installment is frequent, highlighting both progression and areas of decline according to different player perspectives.

Positive Points

  • The fast-paced, adrenaline-fueled combat is very engaging and satisfying.
  • The variety of weapons and upgrades provide a lot of strategic depth.
  • The soundtrack is widely praised for its intensity and quality.
  • Graphics and visual design, including environments and enemy designs, are greatly appreciated.
  • Many players find the movement system to be dynamic and adds to the overall intensity and enjoyment.

    • Negative Points

  • The game is critiqued for having too many platforming sections that disrupt the flow of action.
  • Resource management, particularly ammunition, can feel restrictive and frustrating.
  • The narrative and story were seen as complex and sometimes distract from the raw, brutal gameplay that fans appreciate.
  • Some boss encounters, notably the Marauder, are received poorly by some players due to awkward mechanics.

    • Mixed Points

  • While the combat is exhilarating for some, others find the constant need to switch weapons and manage resources detracts from their enjoyment.
  • The DLCs had varying receptions with some players finding them excellent additions and others considering them less engaging than the main game.

    • Common Themes

  • Comparison to DOOM 2016 is a frequent theme, with many discussing differences in gameplay focus and aesthetics.
  • The blend of strategic combat with fast-paced action is a unique selling point but also polarizes opinions on execution.
  • The game's visuals, including its graphical fidelity and atmosphere, are commonly noted as impressive.
