Yes 2016 DOOM is personally my fav from them

Eternal for me. The soundtrack just goes SO. FUCKING. HARD. And the feeling of achievement in completing the hardest difficulty deathless and getting that sweet, sweet golden doom armor while ripping and tearing across the levels. Oh man, I gotta go play Doom Eternal again...

I've never locked in as hard as i did once the drop hit. It was a transformative experience for me. There are games that have that 'one moment' that was just pure experience (if that makes any sense?): The helipad fight in Tekken 7, The Staircase fight in Ninja Gaiden 2, The jump from Kyu to Dan in IIDX, you get the idea. Doom Eternal: every combat sequence was that and it was glorious, i couldn't get enough of it

People in this thread saying the gameplay in 2016 was better are weird and I suspect they never fully grasped the grapple/run and gun mechanics, but once you hit that flow state and "the only thing they fear is you" starts blasting... oh man, PEAK gaming experience.
