I skipped out on this game when it launched on PS4 because I was focusing on other games and did not have time to get to it. I got on Switch however due to portability and man, the game is pure fun.  Really glad I got a chance to play this.

I am looking forward to DOOM Eternal as well!

I'm sure Doom's gunplay is just fine, but all combat in the demo was so room-based (and I've heard it's similar in the full game) that unfortunately it's not nearly enough to carry the game. It's kind of funny, because that's very deep in the game's core gameplay - more or less exactly what's being praised here. I don't necessarily need anything fancy extra to the gameplay but constricting combat to small arenas (with lockdowns) is simply not that fun to me.

To each their own though, I suppose. Like I said: gunplay seemed fine, and it seems that definitely not everyone minds the rooms.

Borderlands, Metro, Far Cry, Killing Floor, and Fallout all come to mind, besides Wolfenstein.  Unfortunately, BioShock and Dishonored, both of which I like a lot, appear to be over.  The new RAGE is also coming out and looks darn good.  Metro and Borderlands will have installments coming soon.

I agree with the OP. But, you could have boiled it down to this - Doom 2016 was a great game, because they managed to make it feel just like Doom.

For the most part but the game is also filled with modern trends. Not only that, but it also doesn't support traditional mods, another substantial part of DOOM's DNA. 

That being said, even with those drawbacks, DOOM 2016 would be my wife if it was a woman. 

I agree.

Lost interest in COD the Moment they removed the story mode.

Need to find other games to fill the void.

Yeah saying it's "just like DOOM" is too exaggerated. I think it could still take a few more lessons from the original games personally. But - it definitely felt like a DOOM game made in 2016. Which it did very well. Just a few more lessons taken from the OG games, and it would be the ultimate New Classic Original Shooter Deluxe U : P

I own it on 3 platforms. It's best on PC and one of the best shooters I've ever played (and I've played a LOT over the last 22 years).

Yep, amazing game. Classic gameplay done right, with visual and sound design to perfectly compliment the experience.

There is so much wrong with the OP.

You don't have a PS4, Xbox One and PC and hence have barely any taste of modern FPS games and you make the sweeping generalisations which only people who follow games but don't play them make.

Titanfall 2 is a superior shooter to Doom, its confident in its design and has incredible variety which Doom lacks. The campaign in Titanfall 2 is a masterpiece while Doom is just good. You don't need to adhere to one gameplay style the entire game, and should break up the pace with something different. This is where Doom is lacking. Titanfall 2 does it wonderfully, and the gameplay systems are just as solid which makes it a phenomenal game.

I have seen you post on other topics that PS4 and Xbox One don't interest you, because you don't want cinematic games, yet you completely ignore these non cinematic games. If Doom hadn't come to Switch, you'd have missed in your own words a fantastic game. Expand your horizons and get a PS4 and Xbox One, you don't know what you've missed. Even cinematic games like God of War have fantastic gameplay, and there are a ton of fantastic gameplay oriented games.

I didn't mention other FPS games because I don't like multiplayer FPS games, but if you do, there are probably a lot more games in the genre there which you would appreciate if only you had a platform which supports it.
