The greatest level in the entire Doom series is still Phobos Lab. It doesn’t have the gimmicks of a Doom 2 stage, the dark claustrophobia of Doom 3 and 64, or the speed and scale of Eternal and 2016's soft reboot. But Phobos Labs is a singular expression of the essence of Doom. I enjoy Doom Eternal, and I respect how much id was prepared to experiment after the success of 2016. I also feel like Eternal is contrary, in various ways, to the fundamental spirit of Doom. From what I’ve seen and what id has now told me, Doom The Dark Ages feels closer to the nucleus - it’s radiating that Doom energy, but there are a couple of things that give me pause.
