I still want to see for myself. But I will surely return it, if its worth not beating, and if I don't see any value in replay-ability.

Perhaps it would better serve the series if they just tried to make an exact aesthetic remake of Doom, doom in full-High Definition 3D. Along with making the modability and map-making the very core aspect of what the game is about. Give the players a truly advanced map-making tool, and 3D-editing programs. That is the game that I would love to see.

Ouch is right. Glad I didn't waste all that money on the season pass. I still want to try it out though, especially the single player. I'll be really disappointed if they fucked up the last chance the Doom series had at redemption. It appears that might be the case. If this game flops id is dead.

And you know, the more I read the reviews the more shitty this game sounds like it is going to be. Everything from the flaccid voice of the announcer to the shitty dubstep music to the lame taunting. Listen to this review:
"...One of my biggest dislikes I saw was taunts, taking again from Call of Duty most likely. When I saw gangnam style dance and the carlton dance, I knew this game just isn't for me, but that's where IDSoftware completely missed the point..."
Gangam style dancing? Seriously? Yeah it basically sounds like CoD meets Halo for kids. That combined with some of the lame new monster designs...
Honestly this game might be shit. That's a scary thing to say about the dream release I've been waiting for since 2008. Could be the letdown of a lifetime.

I take back what I said about buying this when it drops in price. If the game officially debuts with this garbage in it, forget it.

I know a lot of people dislike Doom 3 but at least it was a dark and mature game. Sure it didn't play like the originals but it still had the scary occult spirit of the originals. The demons were all intimidating. The atmosphere oppressive. It felt aimed towards adults. Like the originals. But with even more horror, which I didn't mind. It was a morbid game.
Doom 2016 on the other hand comes complete with meme taunting, gimmicky executions and CoD meets Halo multiplayer.
Why didn't they try to focus on what made the Doom multiplayer unique? From what I've seen and heard it's like they are going in a 180 complete opposite direction and actually shitting all over what Doom deathmatch was about to begin with. Doom CREATED deathmatch. WHY would you deviate from what it CREATED? Why is there a two weapon cap? Why is the speed slow and floaty like Halo? Class loadouts? It is completely baffling to me.
They had the chance to be different but at this rate the multiplayer will be dead in a month. This can't compete with CoD. Not by a long shot.
It seems as though they are desperate to appeal to edgy kids who don't know what the Doom games are about. That is the only reason they would borrow from other (more successful at this point) FPS franchises. Why should they care about other FPS games? Doom is the motherfucking grandfather of the genre. For fuck sake, id!
They better make changes fast. And the single player/snapmap better kick ass to compensate because so far it isn't looking good at all. Hopefully I'm wrong and this entire angry rant will be for nothing.
[/rant] Feeling alienated from my favorite franchise at this point. It is a sad day for RUSH. :-S

What they are doing to Doom now is kinda like what they did to Uncle Buck last year.
P.S. For those of you too young to know, here's the original film they desecrated with that goforsaken TV series.

At this point the best Doom mods are the ones that don't cost money. I recently played through Sheer Poison by yakfak, and the amount of cool ideas and puzzles present in that wad was really refreshing. iD would never and could never do something like that at this stage in their existence.
