+ Competent FPS (aside from my gripes below)

- I expect a proper Doom title to have fast, non-stop, adrenaline-pumping, run-and-gun mindless killing. This feels much too linear/scripted and slow-paced (not the fights themselves, but you spend more time navigating the level between them). I guess I wanted a modernized Doom 1&2, but this feels more like Doom 3 (minus the darkness) or Half-Life 2. It's pretty disappointing
- The jumping/mantling is awkward, which is especially annoying because the game often wants you to jump across death pits to ledges
