The only game that did the difficulty right was doom eternal

All the Dooms got it right. More monsters.

No, no, it’s literally about pathing, aggressiveness, rate of shooting and special abilities, and of the enemy macro.

The extra damage on a higher difficulty is almost not worth mentioning.

I’ll not cotton any slander against Doom of any stripe, be it I, II, Final, TNT, Plutonia, or 2016. (Note that we don’t talk about Doom 3 round these parts.)

Yes there was a doom 3 in the early 00s. It was atleast a good game great graphics fun gameplay etc. But it was more like a horror shooter instead of an action shooter like the other dooms

Metro also comes to mind. The highest difficulty level made both you and the enemies squishier, while also making ammo (which doubled as currency) much rarer. It played so much better that the community even recommended that difficulty level to complete newcomers.

… And then they made the Ranger difficulty a paid DLC in the sequel…
