Well since ID clearly had no interest in developing multi-player and having this be a sp experience, why outsource and tack on a MP mode?
The Mp mode could have worked but they made a few bad decisions. Mostly the loadout system. This game, like the original, is a game of being careful about the ammo on ALL of you weapons, and using them effectively.
The idea that you can have the best experience you've had with a single player experience but you have to mark it down because a different mode isn't as good, is insane.
You mark a game based on the fun you have with it. That's it.
For me Doom is a 5 out of 5. It does exactly what it tries to and surprises you in the process. For a point of reference I would have given TNO a 4 out of 5.
Just because Doom's multiplayer is a bit shit doesn't detract from my enjoyment of the SP campaign. Game reviews are not consumer recommendations based on metrics. They are a persons opinion, and that's it.
