Doom: The Dark Ages won't have multiplayer, but will have the "most expansive, most epic campaign ever" (www.eurogamer.net)

Might be an unpopular take, but I'm not interested much in exploring in this case. I feel like the Doom Eternal gameplay was perfect for me - fast paced, fun and full of action with great visuals. Maybe I'm wrong and this turns out even better, but I feel like they nailed the formula with the last one.

I surely don't want it to be filled with unskippable lore, multiple choice or RPG-stuff like the latest ACs. But a dark power metal-themed adventure with situations that can be addressed in different ways, I am all in.

My unpopular take would be that Doom (2016) looked much better than Eternal (too much neon/candy colors) and that Doom 3 and previous still look much better in atmosphere than both.
