Oh man that is intense! They need to ease people into the game. Maybe a tutorial level instead of diving right into the Nintendo Hardness. Or a watered down "Review" version of the game with weaker enemies and cheatcodes enabled.
The Doom Eternal team released an End of Year Letter on Reddit talking about what they have planned for 2021.
A post on Reddit revealing some of the cancelled Doom 4/Call of Doomy animations and footage. Cool stuff, fairly inferior to what we got but I did like the idea of it in general.
Trigger warning for old people.
Happy 30th Birthday to ID Software!

If he's playing it on Nintendo Switch, it might be significant harder to aim than usual.
Switch controllers are not really ideal for FPS games.
From Keen to Doom: id Software’s Founders Talk 30 Years of Gaming History
On February 1, 1991, John Romero, John Carmack, Tom Hall, and Adrian Carmack officially founded id Software. The group went on to revolutionize the game industry with franchises such as Wolfenstein, Doom, and Quake. Here’s a look back at id Software over the last 30 years, with a little help...

They did a retrospective of the thirty years of games released by ID Software for its 30 Year Birthday and had some interview blurbs from John Carmack, Tom Hall, and John Romero about the various games that were developed (I totally forgot the Doom RPG was a thing) since pre-Commander Keen days and up to the present day, though the games they talk about ends with Rage since that's the last ID game one of the iconic founders really worked on for the company.
Nice short read on Video Gaming history.
ID Software's Creative Director Hugo Martin talks about the potential of there once being an alternative (not replacement, calm down Dad) Female Slayer in Doom Eternal.

The idea never took hold however, apparently because they wanted more then just a reskin if they would've made a female Slayer. If it was implemented, they would've wanted to change more about the character including its overall style in executing glory kills, weapons, fighting style and more (thus confirming that men and women are different genders and not interchangable in the Doomverse).
Alas... all we have is the lovely sporadic fanart... and Quake 3's Crash, who is female and was the Doom Guy/Marine/Slayer's original Marine Instructor.

There's a mod for Doom 2016, but I'm not sure about Eternal yet.
My understanding was that there already was a horde mode released for Doom Eternal. It was called Doom Eternal.
Big news!
The Doomslayer is RETURNING in a Doom Sequel!!!
The Doomslayer is RETURNING in a Doom Sequel!!!
He's going to appear in a sequel to the EXCELLENT straight to video movie adaption Doom Annihilation of course... 
tl;dr: The only way to salvage such a shitty, terrible movie's sequel is to inject 1000cc of pure awesome into its veins.
I've seen Doom: Annihilation a couple times for background watching. I wouldn't say its a horrible or shitty movie. It's just very bland and generic like most direct to video scifi action movies. Production values looked alright for a cheap film but yeah, as a Doom film adaption it is horrible and shitty. Still in that regard, I actually think Doom: Annihilation is actually a far better film then say, even Doom 2005 which I did see as well.
Because Doom: Annihilation was a low budget shit adaption while Doom in 2005 spent like tens of millions of dollars on a shitty adaption and honestly while the effects of the latter were still better... it didn't make it a better movie. The characters are almost all just as forgettable, or would be if Eomer and The Rock weren't so recognizable.

Studios believe that simply directly adapting the games to the big screen is something that people won't want to watch because they've seen/know the storyline already, so they try to make their adaptions completely different -- thing is, the former is what fans want.
Hell, I'd fucking pay £10.00 a ticket to see Doom 2016 and Eternal faithfully adapted to the big screen -- from the Slayer waking up in his sarcophagus, to him shoving the BFG 9000 down Olivia Mastermind's throat and pulling the trigger.
We. Want. That.
We don't want fucking ancient martian genetic experiments, or forgettable female marines with family trauma/a tragic backstory that no-one will give two fucks about even during the movie, let alone after it has finished.
We want to see the Doom Slayer grab a Baron by the throat and rip him a new asshole: We want to see imps get their skulls smashed into paste: We want to see chainsaws dicing up zombies and possessed!
