if there's one complaint about Doom the Golden Souls it's that the only weapons of any use are the cannon and the ak. The spike gun which replaces the plasma gun is absolutely useless except as a way of rebounding shots (and it's just the nailgun from quake only worse) and does less damage than the AK, and the BFG replacement is apparently some kind of ... railgun? No idea how good that is but it's a single target weapon as opposed to like... wipe out everything weapon.
Honestly it just sticks too close to the Doom formula, though the level design is pretty nice! Except this ghost level where to get a particular big coin you gotta press a button, run to the other side of the room through a small maze to get through an open door, go up the lift inside, press a button in the room BEYOND that, then get BACK on the lift before it goes back down, HOPE you're in time to get BACK through the door you opened before it closes again, then rush to the OTHER side again.
