Here's more from the
DOOM: The Dark Ages at Developer_Direct ‘25 Presentation from
yesterday (thanks Frans). First up
are
Preorders of the Premium Edition & Collector’s Bundles for DOOM: The Dark
Ages. Word is pre-purchasing the Premium Edition of the upcoming
first-person shooter sequel will get you some goodies, as well as two days of
Early Access to the game before its official May 15th launch.
This Slayer's Club post further discusses the
Gameplay Reveal,
saying: "Become the DOOM Slayer, the superweapon wielded by gods and kings
against the legions of Hell. Traverse dark and twisted hellscapes from the
Slayer’s past as you wield ancient and incredible power against the forces of
evil. From 30-story mechs and weapons-mounted dragons to guns that pulverize
skulls as ammunition, your journey in DOOM: The Dark Ages will be a
massive-scale action epic - and the most ambitious game from id Software to
date." Lastly, the
PC specs are here in case you need to plan some upgrades.
They’ve completely removed the iconic finishers, replacing them with what their shills and blind enthusiasts are praising as an “overhaul” or even an improvement.
When they showed off this so-called "improvement," it was downright laughable. Now, when enemies are near death and enter a stagger state, you get to -- guess what!? -- shoot or melee them. Just like you were already doing before they staggered. Where you aim decides whether they explode health, armor or ammo pick-ups.
No more awesome animations based on where you aim and where you are relative to the enemy (front, side, back). Just a limp ragdoll flop.
Incredibly cheap and it removes that much beloved 1 second breather amidst the chaos.
