This is a very good game. It has some of the finest gun play, most satisfying crunches and splatters and a really remarkable level of accessibility for both people who just want to sit back and chill as well as people who enjoy 100%ing everything on the highest levels. Its a very fine doom title. I just cannot get over how many meters this game has to keep track of personally. the recharging grenades (both types), flamethrower, punch, so on so on, its just clutter on the hud that I find takes me out of the game more often than not. I enjoy having all the options, and I use all of them, but I could have done with half the options and had just as much fun. My other issue is the weapon sandbox. I think the game needs about half the weapons it has currently, more isn't exactly better. Especially when the game is leaning so hard into limiting your usage of the sandbox anyways. While you can kill things the way you want, you'll often times be heavily punished if you don't adhear to the weaknesses because you run out of ammo. This in itself is fine, giving players a punishment for not being careful in an encounter, its only troublesome when you get taken out of the action because your on a wild goose chase for an enemy to give you ammo. Marauder is boring an an enemy, cool the first time as a boss, but as an enemy it brings the game to a crawl.

tl;dr Buy this game, its really good. I can't personally recommend it, but I believe its enjoyable for most people. This is after playing the game at launch, beating it then and coming back now and trying it again.
