Multiplat DOOM: The Dark Ages

Ok i've gotten through the first few levels...

I wanted to play this as soon as it came out, but my PC just couldnt handle it.

Something needed to be done...

And it has been corrected...

I do like the Parry/Block and smesh combat, although it does seem a bit easier and more forgiving than the previous games, on Hurt me plenty.

The stages are bigger but the obvious branching paths kind of take me out of it. Eternal was better at hiding stuff that you could go back to later, here it's just very obvious that you could go left or right, but I just wanted to progress in the stage and hit people, not look for stuff.

Hitting demons with the flail and the shield is fucking badass. Jumping off a cliff after targeting a demon and dashing forward offensivley from the cliff and smashing into him and laying out 15 of his buddies with the same motion, is just beautiful.

The music, while not bad, is obviously NOT Mick Gordon, who did a GOAT job on the last game. They need to do whatever possible to get him back.

I find I dont use the guns that much in this game. They take a back seat to the melee weapons. It doesnt bother me, but it's noticeable. Anyway so far so good. I played earlier today and will try to get an hour in tonight before I go to bed.

Rip and Tear.
