So I wanted some hardcore game for my Nintendo Switch, and Doom Eternal is surely one of few AAA games, you can actually get for Switch. I didn't play it on PC or other consoles - so I'm kinda playing with "mobile" graphics, but still it looks decent and plays just awesome.
Challenging, with interesting mechanics in every aspect of the game. Exploration, fights, upgrades - are deep enough to remain enjoyable for quite a long time, adding something new as you progress through the story.
PvP is somewhat new and interesting to play. However there are few issues with balance and matchmaking. It seems Nintendo Switch players are being matched to PC players, which I find somewhat unfair even more than 1vs2 gameplay.

Okay, as a 50+ year old gamer who's been playing since the 1970's I know my limits and I tend to stay away from "twitch" games where reaction times have to be razor sharp. With that in mind I avoided this game for a while, in spite of having enjoyed and finished every previous DOOM iteration from the beginning. When it went on a great sale I figured "what the heck" and decided to give it a try, thinking it might be a short-lived experiment.
Boy was I wrong. The controls are intuitive and easy to master. The encounters are a blast and even failing is pretty fun as you figure out where you went wrong. I'm playing on the second level of difficulty and finding it challenging but just challenging enough to make it a lot more fun. The music and graphics are also excellent and add to the excitement.
I do find that the best technique for surviving a difficult battle is to to just pace myself, taking bites out of the boss and avoiding going toe-to-toe with them as I run and jump around. I keep flaming and death punching the baddies to keep my armor and health up and I choose a weak one every now and then to chainsaw and get the ammo up.
I can't really recommend this game enough. It's well balanced and exciting but not too overwhelming and it really rewards the creative use of weapons and using actual strategies. If you're old like me, don't be afraid and give it a go. You'll be glad you did.

The longer you play Doom Eternal, the easier Doom 2016 will become

Remember everyone:
The difficulty isn't for you,
It's for the demons.
