I felt it was the other way around. 2016 was simple and effective. Eternal just kept throwing shit at you, especially at higher difficulties. I kept hoping the big battles would end so I could move on, but more monsters kept coming. And then they threw the Marauders at you which just didn’t seem to fit in with the rest of the game because of how you have to fight them.
I prefer the kind of game that I can master once I get used to it’s mechanics so Eternal was perfect for me but I do understand the appeal of Doom 2016.
Battles in Eternal don’t take too long if you know how to switch the right weapons to maximize your dps.
Ignoring graphical aspects. It might be good game, it’s just not a DOOM game other than in name and monsters. I played the shit out of the originals and I felt with D2016 they really captured the essence of it but with just a few new simple additions to keep it fresh, then when I started Eternal it felt like I was playing a different franchise, wall climbing and grappling hooks? The pacing was all off. Maybe the dev team moved on, I dont know, but I was left extremely disappointed.
Eternal was amazing, 2016 is a great shooter but it’s way too simple and unbalanced at higher difficulties.

The marauders are exactly why I stopped playing Eternal, didn’t feel like DOOM at all anymore
