I just hope they're is some type of horror element with the game. With all this talk about bringing Doom back to its root, it's not just about how fast the gameplay is. Horror was a huge part of Doom's success when it was released.

Looks more like a comic book similar to The Darkness II's design. Because the first DOOM is colorful and the reboot is basically the same game getting a more modern touch, the choice of graphic style seems appropriate IMO.

Never let anyone else define you. Don't be a jerk just to be a jerk, but if you are expressing your true inner feelings and beliefs, or at least trying to express that inner child, and everyone gets pissed off about it, never NEVER apologize for it. Let them think what they want, let them define you in their narrow little minds while they suppress every last piece of them just to keep a friend that never liked them for themselves in the first place.
Still like how the Cacodemon looks much closer to its classic Doom appearance, but not sure how to feel about the other monster designs yet. Kinda mixed on them. Game looks fun though and I guess May's a good time for its release for me.
I liked Doom 3, and I enjoyed most of the designs in it.
I always forget how long the game is. The website, "howlongtobeat" says most people completed it in 11 hours but I remember it taking way longer than that.
That the first thing you think of upon seeing that cover is a comparison to Master Chief says a lot about what the game is going for with its imagery there. It definitely evokes the MC vibe.

The Doomguy/marine's previous designs, while nothing breathtaking, at least had its own uniqueness and identity to them, but I guess to modernize him they wanted his appearance to look more like other character designs from shooters you know, MC especially...
Regardless, having the Revenant or something that's been on Doom game covers before like Hell Knight or Cyberdemon on the cover for this game would've been preferable, and reached out to any Doom fan more than well... that.
If only we could reach back in time and have the 2600 artists make todays box art..

It doesn't help if someone new to the franchise was at a Gamestop glancing shelves and mistook it for Halo, Section 8 or Black Ops at the corner of his eye and move on. Now if it had a cover as eye catching as the first Doom's, he would go over and check that out and maybe even buy it.
