Review snippets: Loved 2016, and Eternal, this game plays nothing like those games. 2016 you run and gun, Eternal is like a fighter jet, TDA you are a indestructible tank!!!! Loved everything about this game. The combat is fun and engaging and / Not as good as the original... but still a cool entry in the Doom saga and lore. Did love the throwable shield so you can basically become Slayer Captain America! Read more
