t.I was surprised at how many replies actively don't like it, but then I remembered that since I paused playing it (due to another new game) I'm not in such a rush to get back to it.
I prefer 2016 in terms of fighting and difficulty, but I like the fact that the new levels on Eternal provide a new opportunity to find and unlock secrets.

Maybe it’s just me but I really enjoyed the fast paced crazy action of eternal. Completed it on ultra violence when it came out and had a blast. Did all the sentinel gates too, thought they were great. I was looking forward to the DLC but now I might read some reviews first before buying.
Are you guys playing on controller? I don’t know how I could play this without a mouse and keyboard.

Admittedpy, I've gone from Doom Eternal in to Assassin's Creed Origins. Really enjoying that at the moment but do need to get back into and finish off Doom at some point I prefer 2016 in terms of fighting and difficulty, but I like the fact that the new levels on Eternal provide a new opportunity to find and unlock secrets.
What's actually wrong with the DLC then?
Wow I have had to knock back the difficulty on this......my God it's got to the point where by there were so many enemies on screen I didn't know where to shoot 
It's almost like the difficulty curve has jumped up a notch whilst I'm hunting for Dr Hayden......
Now on the easiest setting......apparently

Given that most of the stuff I've ordered from there as been pretty good, I'm tempted to put this next to my Revenant statue

(I know it's from the NES game btw)Got it on sale the other week and going through it on PS4 just now. It's not bad, but so far it's just seeming a bit too difficult and (from what I remember) it just doesn't seem to flow as well as 2016 did while I don't really mind the puzzles too much, it just seems to go from being locked in an arena with a stack of enemies, platform puzzle, locked in an arena, another puzzle...

Flow is an appropriate word. The best level levels in 2016 (and earlier) were when you just pressed on killing demons, moving too fast to really think about it or do silly stuff like looking for secrets. Arcade mode in 2016 comes close to this, you have to just kill the maximum amount of demons in the shortest time, nothing else matters.It’s the jumping in Eternal that pisses me off. It’s adds nothing to the game play, and is just a pain. I’ve got to some stage in Exultia where I can’t be arsed to solve the jump/extended jump combination.
Bought my copy during the Steam sale after loving 2016. Just completed my first playthrough on Ultra Violence and had an absolute blast. Here are a few of my observations.
1. I love how it has become more complex. The fights were leaving me pumped up after being put under increasing pressure. I do want to play more and become better at weapon combos!
2. Platforming was fun and added a little more complexity.
3. The most stable game I have played. No crashes in 18 hours of play.
4. Soundtrack. The intro gets me hyped up every time.
5. The final boss was an absolute slog. But the satisfaction in killing him was immense.
It isn't a game for the run and gunners. Requires insane mobility, chainsaw use, grenade/flame belch utilisation but when you start chaining some combos together its hugely rewarding.
Breezed through the first Master Level still on Ultra Violence. Going back to do levels which have outstanding secrets, might even go for the full 100%.
