I saw the E3 stream on twitch, it is AMAZING!
unfortunately, gaming has moved on and i think it wont be very popular. definitely wont get to re-live the hey days where FPS reigned supreme.
its all about MOBA / Open world games now.
edit: also... the number of people spamming MASTER CHIEF / HALO on twitch when Doom was playing... *facepalm*
games look awesome, still needs 10 months to go, no fps until then !

It looks like Doom 3. This is not a compliment.
It looked amazing probably be my first Doom game
“Snow can only live in the winter. When it nears a fire, it dies. That is its life. It may yearn for summer, but… it can only desire it. In my hand, the snow becomes water, because this is not its world….”“The boundless Heavens and Earth are the final resting place of all living things. Life is like a journey, filled with various scenery, various paths.
Can't wait for it. I loved every doom game. Especially doom3.
I watched expecting to be disappointed, after hearing execution kills and double jumping and such. Then of course after hearing that I (finally) play Brutal Doom no more than a month ago. Loving Brutal Doom too, not so much executions but its completely optional so whatever. Have to say I wasn't disappointed though, as this actually seemed to feel somewhat like classic Doom, or at least Brutal Doom. Especially compared to 3 (which was fun in its own right). I'll still get it no matter what, cause Doom is awesome.

Multiplayer - Whyyyyyyyyyy. Nobody played it in Doom 3, and nobody will play it in Doom 4.
Other than that, I mostly liked what I saw of the totally 100% legit in-game footage trailer. Not sure how I feel about melee kills (if the AI is as stupid as it was in Doom 3 then 90% of the game will be just melee killing them all for one hit kills), but they did have some fantastic animations.
No, it looks like a lazy update to DOOM 3. I was all excited to see the video too and a few seconds into all I can think was "this is just a graphics update to the 11 year old DOOM3". Reused art assets like weapons, the animations from fire spitting out of the pipers, environment details and even level design. All the ripping out hearts is new, but the time between DOOM 3 and DOOM 4 is actually longer than the time between 2 and 3, yet they are half assing and just reusing shit that's over a decade old.
It be different if this was just a sequel getting released a couple years after the last one. But this is supposed to be a series reboot after an 11 year gap.
I think it looks fantastic. I loved Doom/II when I was younger, hated Doom 3. This definitely looks like they went back to the faster paced style of the early games.
The first minute of the demo made it look like Doom 3, and I was thinking 'uh oh', then it really took off.
Every single thing in the game play, visually, was straight from DOOM 3. A little extra polish on the models, but that's it. Also, that video was likely the first 6 minutes of the game, which was faster paced in DOOM 3 too. We don't have enough info to know that we won't see the horror story element, "hallway crawler with the flashlight", in this game too.
Go watch the video with your eyes open this time. One easy copied assets to spot is the plasma gun. Here's the DOOM 3 version for reference.
The new one has a higher polygon count, but they reused the same base asset from more than a decade ago. Which, again, would be fine for a sequel being made a couple years after the previous one, but this is supposed to be a franchise reboot.

I heard that the first gameplay video is from the 2nd level, and the hell gameplay video is from about half-way through the game. I have no idea how long the game is supposed to be.
